He had been working particularly hard on that table. It was the only thing that seemed to take his mind off losing Millie. To a plant of all things.
Just as he rounded the corner of his hut, hs gaze immediately went to the playground and they rested on two familiar figures. He put down his carving tools and walked over to the two young Hufflepuffs. "Hello Minvera, Oakey. How are you two doing?"

Minerva giggled thinking about his confession. He then talked about Pepper and tried to be positive, she was great full for his positive ways with the situation, but Minerva just couldn't be that positive after everything that had gone on. "I hope that too, but it's been so long since she has been seen last. I'm not sure if we will see her again."
Just as she was going to ask Oakey about summer plans she turned hearing another voice. She couldn't help feeling emotions tug at her when she saw Mr. Gibbins, "Hello Sir, I was actually coming to see you, but stopped here first." She looked around the playground an then back to him, "I just wanted to come and see how you were doing. With everything that has went on, I haven't made it down here since that forest day." She looked up at him and wasn't sure how to ask the question that was sitting on her brain, one that had been there since that day. "Ummm...has there ever been a sign of Pepper?"
Riiiight there was that too. Oakey was so in the moment of winning the Quidditch Cup his mind blanked to only Sophie and no one else in the crowd. Not the Scouts, or the Media or anyone, just Sophie.
"Don't remind me." He said shaking his head at the thought being known as the Boy in Love. The trying his best to be optimistic about it just smiled at Minerva.
"I'm sure she's fine where ever she is."
There he was! Oakey hopped up from the See-Saw and grabbed the small cage he set on the ground Earlier.
"Mr. Gibbins. I was actually looking for you as well." He took a step forward and held out the small cage revealing a horned toad sitting inside of it.
"I had heard what happened to Millie and with Pepper gone too." He frowned, he liked Pepper and really did hope that the dog would come back.
"I thought that maybe I would re-gift Earl Grey to you."
The toad was originally supposed to be for Aegis, his Gaurdian's nephew. Since Christmas though, the toad found it's way into one of Oakey's bags and back to Hogwarts.
