~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes. "Laurel! Hello. Looking marvellous as usual.'' Really, Laurel was definitely looking extra great tonight. "Definitely! This has become our tradition and I intend to keep it up.'' Kay smiled. "Did you predict that I'd be wearing green and you decided to do the same?'' She loved that they matched!
Kay only came out from her reverie whenever she noticed movement in the form of an arrival of one of her colleagues. She beamed at each of them as they joined the Dais. "Hello, Tristan. How's Ash?'' Ah, there was the bestie. "Hello, Rose. You look wonderful!'' The cousin was next to arrive. "Of course, Cam. We can't miss those, can we? Dad would love that since he hasn't been feeling that great still.'' She would have told Cami all about her dad earlier in the term. Old age...
The Muggle Studies Professor was most surprised about Paul's arrival. She had expected something loud or something that stuck out fashion- wise but the Deputy looked... tired. She understood. It would have quite a bit of work to see that everything went smoothly over the term given their visitors. She sent him a warm and encouraging smile. Hang in there, Paul.
How she had missed the disco ball, Kay did not know. She had a sneaking feeling it was because she had been so lost in thoughts of all the things that needed to be completed over the summer. She sudden became aware of confetti and cards descending upon the entire staff table. Reaching for one of the cards, she recognised the picture on it and smiled. It was a smile mixed with happiness and sadness. How she would miss you, Rooney Bronwyn. As for this card, she'd keep it with the rest of the memorabilia of her past students. |
