Which she was very excited about being the featured artist, and she was only sixteen.

She wondered around, hearing voices she sneaked up behind them. Seeing Puck and Bianca she hung around listening. Not eavesdropping. No she would never do something like that.

Making her move she jumped up in a pouncey way. She plopped down next to Puck. "Blind dates? Stable relationships? Has someone got bitten by the love bug?" She grinned and laughed. Boy was she glad she a boyfriend. Puck would probably on her case next about blind dating. Pffff no thank you. She was very happy.

For reasons such as they had nothing to do with the topic at hand. "We could make a fortune if you sold your thoughts to people," Bianca said with a serious face even though she was just kidding. "We should get back to that idea later."

As she listened to Puck talk, her mind wandered ever so slightly to the cardigan her best friend was wearing. Wait - was that hers? She wasn't entirely sure but that didn't matter at the moment. The whole Puck wanting to go on a date-date was what nearly knocked her off of the rock. "What?" Bianca asked, shocked. Her brown eyes mimicked that of a deer in front of a speeding car, and she wasn't sure if she heard correctly. "I mean..." Bianca twirled her hair around her finger before letting it go. "Dating? Are you sure? You know it's not dating me right?" she asked in an attempt to make light of the situation. "It's like a real date-date? With someone? And talking and being serious and getting to know each other?"

If Bianca was completely honest, the idea frightened her a bit. She wasn't sure if she was ready to put the whole feelings thing on the line again. Not after - ugh, she didn't even want to think about it. Though Bianca supposed it would be a good way to just forget about it. "You know what? Count me in. If you want to try it, I'll do it with you." She was going to be supportive and they were going to go on dates with other people and no one else was allowed to call Puck babe. That was Bianca's thing.

"OH MY MERL-" Bianca almost fell off of the rock a second time when Cinna announced herself. "Cinnastix, I love you but next time you should announce yourself before you give someone a heart attack!" Because Bianca nearly had one. If one were to reach into her chest and grab her heart out of it, they could see it beating faster. "It's because babe's getting a little older. You know, stability and... grown up stuff," she said, attempting her best serious face. But in all seriousness, Bianca understood where this was all coming from. She supposed after a while, everyone got tired of being single.

And yet again, Bianca almost fell.

What was the house elf doing there? Why was it crying?

And more importantly, why was it looking at them and crying?

Unsure of what to say, Bianca fidgeted a little in the seat she had almost fallen out of when she saw the house elf and cleared her throat. She glanced at Puck then at Cinna then back at the house elf. "Uh... Toddles... you okay there?"

Because what else was she supposed to ask?! She had absolutely no idea what house elf conversation etiquette was but she thought she might've just nailed it on the head.
