Her back was turned towards him so luckily she couldn't see him gawking at her. He seriously debated just going back to his seat and pretending he hadn't seen her. He was still kicking himself for just leaving after his fourth term and never really getting to say goodbye.
He finally decided that he was going to have to face her sometime, and he truely had missed her. He quickly thought of all the possible ways that he could have said hello to her. He tried to think of something smooth to say or something charming. It was hopeless though, Will wasn't exactly the most suave person in the room. Once he had made it across the room to her, he reached around her and covered her eyes with his hands. "Guess who" He said in her ear. He knew that his accent was still thick enough that she'd recognize it, or at least he hoped that she would.
Just when she thought the evening couldn't get any weirder....
A pair of hands descended over her head and obscured her vision. Nell reached up and almost ripped the offending hands away from her face and give their owners a sound thrashing but she stilled when the owner spoke. That voice....could it really be? No. He was at Durmstrang by now, right? But that voice..the accent...
"William?" She whispered.
