She spent part of term with a huge crush on him and he didn't notice nor talk to her really at all and now.. now that she was over it and dating someone he would sit next to her. Well then, whatever.. She was trying to let go of her annoyance with him not only from ignoring her most of term, but also being a jerk to her when Elliot was mean, siding with that girl instead of his own housemate. But, putting that past her hopefully she gave a weak smile, "Hello Oakey... How are you today?" That came out a little colder then she would have liked, but it was a work in progress.. "Ever get your bat back from the match?" Oh she was on a roll and needed to stop..
And her distraction to stop her just walked through the door. She smiled as she saw him greet the professor, he didn't seem like he wanted to be here, but she knew he had been tired, so that might have been the problem. Glaring towards Oakey again she knew Ethan would have sat next to her, but he was already there. Sitting behind her was fine though, he was close enough, except she couldn't maybe daydream about him and see him... She needed to focus anyone, turning she smiled, "Hey Ethan, sorry.." She moved her eyes towards Oakey so that it wasn't obvious she was talking about him, but still obvious to Ethan what she was saying sorry for. "Umm. Do you know Oakey? Oakey this is my boyfriend Ethan.. Ethan this is Oakey."

Why didn't he pay any attention to where he was going. Just his luck that he would sit beside the announcer who let the whole crowd at the Quidditch match know that Oakey was lowlife scum who focused more on getting back at his ex than the game itself. Which was totally not true up until the last few minutes of the game.
"Minerva." Was all he said as he tried to go back to doing...what ever it was he was doing moments ago. Ugh, she continued with her voice! He heard it enough already, "Yes, I got it in the end...okay." Now he just turned his head away from her completely and looked for something imaginary in his bag beside him.
Uuuugh more Minerva, WHAT NOW!?!?!
Lifting his head back up and around to face Minerva who wasn't even looking at him but at the Ravenclaw boy behind him. "Boyfriend?" Oakey asked slightly amused that Minerva had gotten over Maxwell. He turned himself around to face him and put his arm out to shake his. "Ethan, do you want my seat. You can take it."
Ethan watched the exchange between the two Hufflepuffs with mild curiosity. He could feel quite a bit of tension between the two and he raised an eyebrow, not altogether happy with the tone the boy was using with his girlfriend. Hmm.. what was that about? The boy simply shrugged and smiled at Minnie as she apologized.. it wasn't that big of a deal, really, and it certainly wasn't her fault. He shook his head almost inconspicuously as he turned to glance at the Puff boy. No.. he did not know Oakey. Offering the boy a small smile as he shook his outstretched hand, he said,
"Good to meet you Oakey.. Nah, it's cool, I'm fine here.. but thanks." It's not like they had assigned seats or anything.. besides, it might be more fun to sit behind her so he could lean forward and whisper things with a less likely chance of being noticed by Hadley. Not like that would be distracting for Minnie or anything.
Snicker.
SPOILER!!: Professor

"So last lesson we started talking about curses and then before it was abruptly ended, we were trying to identify some objects I had prepared given one of our senses obstructed. Can anyone think why that may be important to the subject of curse-breaking?"
And then class was beginning.. Ethan turned his eyes to Hadley as she began speaking. Oh.. curse-breaking? He supposed that was
slightly interesting.. that was what she was trying to introduce last class with those boxes? Shrugging, he listened to the other answers then raised his hand.
"Does it have to do with sharpening our senses.. sort of like what blind people have to do in order to function in society without sight?" Nothing like answering a question with a question.. but he honestly didn't know the first thing about curse-breaking and needed it to at least look like he was paying attention.
Meh.
