The thing that WOULD stop her from faking an unconscious number DID show up though. "Jake." Jaaaaaake. She moved from the arms of Lexi to the arms of Jake. She noted that he smelled clean as she burrowed into his shirt. "I'm so sorry I didn't stay. Congratulations though, you flew..." well, not into the stands.
And it didn't matter. Next thing she knew Finny was there, giving her those... looks. The wand-happy Puff was entirely forgotten. NO WAY he'd cast on her with THREE boys standing between her and him. HMPH. Later, she was going to kick Matty's shin and give him a serious lesson on manners and how to treat ladies.
"I don't know how he is," Neptune told Finny. "Ms. Moretti said she'd let me back if he was ..." WIBBLE. WIIIBBLE. The wibbles alternated to glares for Sal. If he gave Jim a hard time NOW... Neptune would strangle him.
Thank MERLIN, Neptune seemed okay, and was here for some other reason. Well... he still wasn't SURE but it was looking like it, which made Jake happier.
"It's okay, Tunes," he mumbled absentmindedly, giving the girl a biiiiiiiiig hug. It would have been nice to have seen her in the stands once they'd won, but seeing as Jake's heart just wasn't IN all this stuff anymore, he'd let it go. It was nice to see her now. "You missed the end, didn't you? Treyen Lockhart hit my into the stands with his broom. I got lost
four times on the way here." And he winced slightly as he hugged, but that was it. He wasn't getting healed.
"Are we all waiting to see Jimmy? He's got himself a regular fanbase," the young man smiled stupidly, not for the first time that day. The mood... needed a little lift in here. "I wouldn't worry. I've been knocked out in plenty of quidditch related things, and look at me now."
... uhhh.
