Ian was lost, pondering the misery of his fourth year when he heard a familiar voice. He looked and for a moment, a look of fear spread over his face until he realized he wasn't looking at AJ. The ravenclaw robes gave that away, but it took a moment to register.

He looked at Abby (noticing she was cute, but not in an about to kill you way) and shook his head. You'll probably hate me too when I tell you what happened.
