Winking back, she turned back toward the door to continue greeting the students as they came in.
Whaaaaat? That's not what the gift was for! Geez, Hadley, thanks for announcing it, though.
She still winked. Ha.
He'll have to talk to her once the class is over to...well, taking care of this misunderstanding, because class was already starting.

What did she aspire to do in life, though? Was it bad that she hadn't really thought past Hogwarts yet? She was only twelve, not twenty-three! She raised her hand anyway. "I haven't really decided what I want to do when I get older, but Treyen Lockhart and I have been working on this potion since early last year," she said. She didn't specify which potion, though, or give any details. "That's something I'd like to do--complete it."
Well, ever since Hadley had advised to focus on the present, he'd done that. So,
clearly, he didn't even had as a goal to catch the next Snitch if he got to be Seeker at the next game.
He turned his head around to a much familiar voice as soon as he heard his name being called out in an answer. He half smiled, they needed to meet again, him and Sierra, and he made a mental note to catch her soon after this lesson and talk to her about it, because he'd written notes about that potion over the summer, and they haven't been able to talk at all. And now it was January. Sigh.

AHA!
First, he was awful with numbers, right? Second, if he volunteered, then
that could earn him points, which will help with the House Cup much more than bribery could, not that he was doing that, by the way. Thirdly, he was a fifth year, not a sixth or seventh. So, yes, no.
His eyes were on the parchment in front of him. And unless Hadley called specifically for Treyen, he wouldn't raise his hand.
Arya totally should step up for the Hufflepuffs.
