As he was focusing on kind watching the package as if the thing inside would SPRING OUT of it - he wanted to see it in action!!! - he was actually startled when Daisy greeted him. "Ohai!!" He beamed, getting up and immediately holding up the PACKAGE from Zonko's. "For yoou!" He exclaimed in a sing-song voice. Matt gave her a ridiculously expectant look as he OBVIOUSLY waited for her to open it right there and then. HAHA. Was he not expecting her, or something? It wasn't all that obvious but Daisy could tell that he had been startled by her arrival. Maybe she really was early?? No matter, she was here now AND he didn't seem that startled anymore ... just excited. Which was GOOD YAY!!
Wait. Why was he standing up now??
OOOOOOOOOOH PRESENT!! This was good! Daisy liked presents; she liked presents very much. The Slytherin hadn't exactly thought of buying Matt a present, though, so here was hoping he wouldn't be offended. "You got me a present! Cheers, Solo." There was really no need for that look he was giving her because as soon as she got her hand on the package from Zonko's, she was carelessly tearing it apart. What was the point of pretending to be patient when everyone in this situation wanted the present to be opened??
Oh. OH.
That was unexpected.
She sent a curious look Matt's way, before looking back down and reaching into the package. Was that...?? Slowly, she pulled the present out from its .. well, rubber neck and stared at it. Then stared at Matt. A rubber chicken. Silently, she fixed her eyes back on the chicken she was holding out and her lips twitched. Nope. Couldn't do it.
And all of a sudden, Daisy exploded in laughter.
What in Merlin's name???? |
