This was like, the millionth time she'd been to Wonderland, but she loved it there, especially at the Mad Hatter's tea party. She hummed the tune to one of the songs from the movie as she read. You can learn a lot of things from the flowers, and especially in the month of June.......
Theo was feeling better today, since the whole castle being filthy thing. He was learning to just cope with it, but was taking twice as many showers per day, obviously. AND he was excited to get his hands back on his hoover from Astronomy. That reminded him to go and pick it up later, actually.
Anyway, he was just out to get some air. Theo spent a lot of time outdoors this term, and he was kinda enjoying it.
He hated the courtyard, though. Too crowded, people always getting in your face. Was that... a bench? He'd never noticed a bench here before. There was a very familiar redhead perched upon it, and Theo thought about it at first, but decided to go over. This had to be done. "
Hi." He said, giving Derry a smile. He hadn't seen her since the first tryout, and he WAS feeling a little bitter. It was pretty much water under the bridge now, though.
"
You were great at the tryout... Glad you came?" After he made such a fuss over it?
Theo sat beside her, completely oblivious to the fact that she was reading.
