Scott was jolted back from his watching of the sorting ceremony by the sudden greeting. Oh, hadn't seen her there.
He smiled, albeit not as brightly as her own given the circumstances and the fact he was in one of the only places he told himself he would never be caught dead working. His conviction bared a whole different kind of meaning now and it worried him.
"Thanks. Bein' completely honest, 'm a bit nervous abou' this whole thing. Heard my fair share 'o rumours an' the like ye understan'."
It was nerve wracking really.
"Wha' happened to th' last bloke holdin' my position?" He told himself he wouldn't ask but now how could he not?
