She rushed up behind him and draped her arms across his shoulders giving him a bit of a hug. "Congratulations, Lion." she said happily.
SQUEE! Jake was a Gryffindor!
She helped herself to the seat next to him. "Hey." she said nodding to both Tag and Alice. "Penne. Hey!" she added spotting Penelope. She gave the younger girl a little wave.
Squee! Had she mentioned how excited she was yet? Quote:

And this was why.
Had this been a few weeks ago, Penelope would've been extremely happy that Jake was a Gryffindor. On some level, she still was. Because it was nice having more friends in her house. But that was also the problem. They were just friends, and now she had to deal even more with seeing him be more than friends with one of HER friends. And that wasn't something she could be happy about.
So she gave a half-hearted, "That's cool," to Jake, averted her eyes elsewhere when Anya suddenly appeared and clung to him, waved back at Anya when she finally acknowledged her, and prayed the speech would happen soon so she could have food to distract her from everything else.
No food came, but Penelope was grateful when Gideon popped up then. Finally, someone she didn't have mixed feelings about talking to or being around. "Hey," she replied, even managing a small smile. "Yeah, summer was good for the most part. How was yours?" Ah another friendly face in the form of Anya Phillips. Gideon had noticed she seemed to have caught sight of Penelope near him and the prefect offered her a small wave in return. There would be plenty of time for proper hellos and it wasn't as if most younger students paled around with the older ones when they had friends closer to their own age. And here he had gathered up Penelope when she surely had her own to be with. Another wave...this one directed at him from Kurumi, the boy returning it to his fellow prefect in kind.
Come on Selina where are ye?
And back to Penelope's question. "Aye it was...and I'm thankfully back in the wand-owning group." Cue relieved look. That was certainly one of the good things about his summer. It was just odd for a wizard to be without a proper wand.
