It was the weekend, and there was free time today, so Aiden could wear his favorite sneakers from home. There was only ONE problem....Aiden had never learned to tie them.

He usually just asked the other Hufflepuffs, but sometimes they came untied in the middle of the day, like now. What was he gonna do! He wasn't supposed to go around with untied shoes! What if he tripped! His mum had said once that whenever he had a problem he just had to go ask a big kid. Aiden was very small for his age so almost EVERYBODY was a big kid, but some were bigger kids than others.

Seeing a student that looked older, Aiden walked faster to catch up to them.

"Excuse me," Aiden said, reaching up and tugging gently on the girl's sleeve to get her attention. When she turned she would see a boy that seemed far too small for Hogwarts holding a teddy bear at his side. (Though Aiden's teddy bear was starting to get recognized more than Aiden himself, since he brought him to every class.)

"Um... I need help," the small boy said up at her, sliding his foot with his untied shoes forward.


Ash was not hard to catch up to. She didn't have the energy to walk very fast. Plus, she was 'eating' a bagel(she was holding a bagel and looking at it). And she didn't want to choke.

She felt a tug on her oversized sweatshirt(from Theodore) and turned around. "What do you want............" Oh, it was the teddy bear kid again. She didn't know much about him other than the part where he carried his teddy bear around. He reminded her of her seven year old brother. Small. "Is there a... oh, you want to learn how to tie and double-knot your shoelaces?" This, of course, led to many questions about why he didn't already know how to tie his shoes, and why he was bothering her to ask. But Ash didn't much care. She didn't have anything productive to do, so she just stood there waiting for a response. She secretly hoped he would let her teach him. This would be a good distraction.
