But who could blame him, okay? Prefect meetings always got real long and real boring. Especially during planning periods. At least he showed up, okay? Even if maybe all of him didn't... ahem. Not important now though.
What was important was eating as many cookies as he could before he stopped his self-proclaimed break and went back to-- Ah. A curious firstie. How wonderful.
"... Are YOU supposed to be here?" He may have replied a little defensively... And with his mouth a little full with cookie... Ahem. Like, what even was that supposed to mean, huh? Was he supposed to be here?! HA. Technically no. "Er.. I mean, it's my break, the Gryffindor nodded as if they had those. Um. "And working a station really works up an appetite, y'know?" He nodded as if the kid would know. Gotta be a Prefect first, kiddo. But then you'll know. Mhm.
Also Zander Adair generally always had an appetite. So there was that... Ahem.
Yes, that was enough to keep the boy thinking and not asking more questions, right? No one would know that he wasn't supposed to be on break. Zander Adair was doing a very good job of laying low, okay? Aheeeem. Whilst the kid (no doubt) took time to think on that lol or not, Zander reached over to grab something else off the table in the mean time. As he went to grab a piece of pound cake, he caught sight of young Ava Burton waving at him. Though the pink in her cheeks always confused the older boy, Zander sent her a warm smile and a big wave. "Hey, Ava! Having fun?" He called over... Er so much for staying low.
Right.
And there was Benny. Surely the boy would keep quiet about the fact that this wasn't the Head Boy's work station. There was some level of trust between dormmates... RIGHT, BENNY????
"Uh, yes." What? Was he supposed to be there? Of course he was? What kind of a question was that Mr. Head Boy? All it did was make him sound even more suspicious, did he know that? Huh? Olly peered at the older boy suspiciously. Wasn't he supposed to be the role model here?
Oh. A break. Olly supposed that did make sense. He paused for just a few more seconds before nodding and turning his attention back toward the table. Everybody should be allowed a break. Why didn't the Head Boy just say that in the first place instead of acting so suspicious? Hmmmm?
"What station are you supposed to be working?" Or on a break from working, whatever. Same difference. The point was that Olly wanted to know where to go next. What would be the most fun? He was eyeing that bounce house.
