He stood there for a while before finally turning around, his gaze falling on some of the others who had taken refuge on the rooftop including a housemate of his seemingly engrossed in a book. "Guess I'm not the only one whose had enough of the carnival at the moment," he mused quietly walking closer to the Gryffindor from his year.
The fourteen year old was very engrossed in his book, when the sound of someone's voice pulled him back to Earth. He smiled at his fellow Gryffindor, to whom he'd never really spoken to before.
"Tell me about it. I'm not really one for big crowds of screaming children. As fun as it, I'd much prefer to stay up here."
He set his book down, studying the boy further. It hadn't really ever occurred to him to talk to any other Gryffindors in his dorm; he was far too shy. He wasn't even sure if he knew this guy's name. Now that he was a bit more outgoing, he figured he branch out and make a new friend, or acquaintance. But it would most likely be the latter.
"I'm Christopher, by the way. I know we've been going to school together for the past three years, but I don't think we've ever actually met. It's nice to meet you, mate," he said, reaching across the table to shake the other kid's hand. Wasn't it.... Gilbert? Greggory? Something like that.
