He still had to make up his mind about that guy.
Jeremy tore his gaze away from the Groundskeeper as they approached their seats and Kimber spoke up. "I guess so. Though, Hecate is still absent." He pointedly glanced at the empty seat to his left which seperated him from...Isabelle, the woman he had met in Diagon Alley. "Hello there. I hope you chose more suitable shoes this time?" He joked lightly with a small grin at the other woman as he settled in his seat next to Kimber.
Kimber glanced at the empty chair and scoffed.
"That's no great loss," she mumbled under her breath, smiling at Jeremy as she filled her water glass.

His gaze then traveled to that of her apparent bodyguard, Zookara. Chad smirked before turning back to his plate and his attention back to the glass of water.
Catching Chad's smile, Kimber raised her glass at him and let her eyes linger. She didn't turn around again until she heard Jeremy say her name.

She's the librarian and one of my closest friends." His closest friend actually. "And this is Isabelle, she's teaching...erm...Transfiguration, was it?" She certainly was sitting in Preston's seat.
Kimber set her glass down and gave the woman a smile.
"Aww, Jeremy," she laughed, nudging him softly.
"Can I make it through one day without you making me blush?" she whispered, taking his hand under the table for a gentle squeeze.

Only the second person at the whole table she had spoken to. She would also have offered to shake the woman's hand, but doing it across someone else would probably seem a bit rude. "Transfiguration, yes," she smiled, answering just before taking another gulp from her goblet. Why was her mouth so dry today?
"Likewise," Kimber replied, inclining her head. Man! She wasn't used to all of this smiling nonsense. Her cheeks were going to KILL by the time the feast was over.
