OOMPH!
Alec stumbled forwards as someone walked right into him! O_O Weird. No one usually walked straight into him... EVER! The fourteen year old spun around and blinked at the girl behind him. A grin spread across his face as he recognised that face, those eyes and that blonde hair. "Hey Ells!" he said, "Erm... no, no that's fine! You're not late and... I'm not hurt so..." GRIN. They were both good, right? Right!
They? The boy turned around and looked towards the house elves again. She... had to mean them, right? Because students won't mind fellow students being in the Kitchens but house elves... this was their land. Their territory. And they were just marching in. Yeah... "Erm... I hope not!" he whispered back, "I mean... we won't be making a mess... and we're cooking for ourselves..." If making ice cream did count as cooking then yes, they were cooking for themselves.
So Alec was grinning at her, strange seeing as she'd nearly sent him toppling over, but she was
really glad he wasn't angry with her. Ella wouldn't like that. The small blonde returned the smile, clearly relieved she hadn't injured her fellow Hufflepuff.
"Are you sure? I mean I um...I got a bit distracted in the dormitory and um.." And so she was pretty sure she wasn't on time, though she wasn't going to argue the point or anything, not if Alec didn't mind her lateness.
"I'm glad you're not hurt." She added seriously.
"Quidditch tryouts are coming up and I expect you to be there." And she smiled a bit, bouncing on her toes. He was excited and nervous too, yeah?
Ella nodded, observing the house elves with a smile.
"Y'know, I bet they wouldn't...I mean I've been in here tons of times last term and made myself sundaes." Most of the time with Harvey, though she conveniently left that part out. "
Yeah...yeah, you're right. We won't be bothering them and we'll um...try and stay out of their way, right?" And if they did that...they could start making the sundaes?
The third year stepped in front of her friend then, placing her hands on his shoulders and smiling.
"So...are you ready to make the best sundaes ever?" Shake.Shake.Shake.
"First things first, we need ingredients!" And lots of them, if they were going to make the most epic ice cream sundaes to ever grace Hogwarts! Grin!
