He spotted Olivia and waved at her with a smile before sitting down at a different area alone. He hoped she wouldn't be offended. He preferred to sit away from friends (and he thought that maybe they were friends now) during lessons so he could concentrate better, especially in subjects that weren't his best. Of course, "not his best" didn't really mean "bad." He was just his own worst critic. Anything other than a top mark was bad to him.
He wouldn't mind if anyone joined him. He just didn't want to sit near anyone he already knew, or else he might be tempted to talk to them instead of paying his utmost attention to the lesson at hand.
According to her uncle Divination was a fascinating subject along with Ancient Runes, Trixie however didn't really see it. There just seemed to be a lot of guess work when it came to those subjects but they could be interesting sometimes. Hopefully today would be one of those days.
As she approached the lake and saw the straw mats and stones placed around, Trixie had a good feeling that this was indeed going to be an interesting lessson. She spotted Ace and was about to head over to him but she realised that she was going to have to weave her way through a number of students and well she was not the most graceful of girls, she was likely to trip over someone.
So instead, Trixie decided on the mat closest to her. Only there was someone already sitting there.
"Do you mind if I sit here?" She hoped that he didn't because she was going to sit there anyway.
