The only time Alec had seen so many different types of animals was in his Dad's Veterinary Clinic. But this? This was completely new and still awesome!

And what was better was that he saw someone he recognised! It wasn't exactly hard what with the person's hair colour. But hey! Now he could spend some time with his awesome, older friend. And maybe he could get some advice about tryouts. That would be pretty cool.

Alec flipped his hair to the side as he made his way towards his Captain. But as he got closer, he couldn't help but wonder why his Captain had long hair. Had it really been that long since he'd seen the boy? He didn't really think so. And... this person? Their hair seemed... different to Keefer's. And they were slightly shorter in height. Odd... no one can shrink can they?

... O___________O

It was just as Alec was close enough to talk to this older person that he realised that it wasn't who he thought it was in the first place. It was a Captain, yes, but it wasn't his Captian. And worst of all, it was her; the one person out of the entire school who probably hated him.

Alec ruffled his hair as he looked at the person again. He couldn't back away now so... the girl was going to get a chat whether she liked it or not! "Erm... hey!" he said, a small smile still playing across his face, "Erm... are you okay?" Because normal people wouldn't be looking under topiaries.
Honestly, Ellie wasn't at all paying attention to her surroundings. What didn't include topiary, that is. Because she really had no intention of meeting anyone or even seeing someone she knew, it was a big school after all, and her very top priority at the moment was Bunny. And finding Bunny a bush!bunny companion.

But that 'hey' was way to close to her to ignore, even if it wasn't intended for her. The Ravenclaw redheaded Captain lifted her head to the voice. The boy who spoke came as quite the surprise to her. Didn't she...intimidate him? Just as she did everyone else for some odd reason she'd never understand? Or just the fact that he's always seen her in her worst mood, immediately after losing a match? To him, no less?

He seemed very friendly, though, and soon Ellie was wearing a small smile. His question took her a moment to figure out. For whatever reason, she kept thinking people were concerned about whether or not she was 'okay' or 'alright' because...of Treyen...because she really didn't feel very 'okay' or 'alright' lately because of Treyen. Or rather, lack of Treyen. But....no. This was the little star first year Seeker. Even if that was what he meant by that question, Ellie wasn't about to go telling him that she wasn't. That her birthday just passed and that made everything worse.

So he'd meant 'you look hurt' to her. Physically. But she wasn't. And she had that smile on her face to show him so. "I'm fine," she nodded, "Have you seen a bunny shaped topiary, by the way?" she asked, stroking Bunny's head with her finger tips.

Did Alec see Bunny? There was a reason she was looking for this particular topiary. She wasn't too weird, you know.
