Yes, being holed up in the Castle did help, Adi reasoned. Cutty probably made a small fortune with his business. Hmmm. Was there room for a partner? The Hufflepuff and Slytherin would make a mighty fine candy selling team in his opinion.

Adi took the candy. Whether it was from the Muuggle or Wizarding world, chocolate was heavenly chocolate. "Thanks, man. You're the best.'' Heh. That's the closest he would come to telling Cutty how awesome he was. Otherwise it would go to the guy's head.

Beverly Wayne actually gave him a smile. Was something wrong with her? Or was he growing on her? Hehe. "I was and I still am...Bev.'' He didn't say it that loud, just loud enough for Beverly to hear. He grinned at her. He was half expecting to be hexed right now. But she couldn't be that bad as Agatha, right? Speaking of her...

Grayson had disappeared under the table. Ahh these Slytherins. Never a dull moment with them. And then there was West yelling at them. His feast? Did he put on the feast? Yeah right. You could say Adi was super amused. "I won't mind checking out Africa,'' was all he said. Because West looked FIERCE. And the Hufflepuff really didn't want to be hexed. No, no. He'd just sit here and looked like he belonged. He really felt as if he did. Hehe.
