The fifth year's vision was probably blury, and since she couldn't see anyone in the Common Room, she took the opportunity to violently throw the Transfiguration book she was holding across the room, almost into the fireplace. She just didn't aim for it because that way there would be no way in the WORLD she could make it through her OWLs.
But honestly, so WHAT? There was no way she would make it through them anyway.
FLYING BOOK INCOMING!!! DANGER. DANGER. DANGER. SOUND THE ALARM!!
The boy saw the book coming from his periphery vision and quickly ducked to avoid it. When he heard the book make a loud thud against the floor, Simon looked up to find that the book had almost landed very nearly in the fireplace. Merlin's Beard! That's not how to treat a book. This person could have set the book on fire.
He turned to find the almost-book-murder had been Miss Agatha Hapagood herself. He was about to start smiling when he realized how puffy and red her eyes were. Had.. Had she been crying? Merlin. What was wrong? He stood up, picking the book off of the floor and gently placed it on the nearest table. There. Now the book was safe and hopefully out of anyone else's reach for now.
Turning now to face Agatha, he bit his lip. How could he help her? He had no clue but he would try nevertheless to comfort her. He approached her and then hugged her tightly. "
Agatha... Everything's going to be okay..." he said. A few seconds later, he realized what he had been doing. Taking a couple steps away from her, he turned a slight pink. "
Sorry about that... What's wrong?"
