Melbourne was still somewhat…well, exhausted from OWLs and packing and that oh so stomach churning realization…she was meeting Kirk’s parents tomorrow after the train…breaaaaaathe she gave everyone smiles as she made her way to the table…ohhhhhh Ace was here? And look who was sititng next to him.

No, no she was not going to call him Lacey in front of Olivia Holden…she didn’t need a constant reminder of the boat party disaster…even well – they were kind of sort of going on dates now so maaaaaybe his blunt weirdness had worked on her? ”Hey everyone,” she grinned and looked around the table. Zoryn got a little smirk for her no cheerleading rule and EMMELINE WAS THERE. Mel gave the younger girls at the table BEAMY smiles and waves before settling into a spot directly across from Ace and Owlie…Ravenclaw table was just in her view. ”Hey Ace…Olivia – how’re you guys fairing after OWLs and all?” she asked grinning at the two of them.

Yes, her attention went to the box for a moment…but the best friend had some ideas about it. ”don’t tell me…you’re going to the barns after this to collect all of your animal habitats for the train?” she asked her tone more jesting than anything. Really clearly he wasn’t just doing that why would he bring it to the feast? ”congratulations guys on the house cup! We’ve got this!” she beamed at her housemates and the interloping Ilvermornians.
