His fingers interlocked with Charlotte's, Henry was all smiles as they walked into the Great Hall together. "Mind if we sit at the Hufflepuff table first?" he casually mentioned with a glance as he headed that way, figuring that she really wouldn't mind. And he sure wouldn't mind sitting with her at the Gryffindor table later if she wanted. They did have friends in all the houses of course, but he felt as Head Boy he should at least make an appearance at his own house table first.
"Hey, everyone!" Grinning, he greeted those at the table sitting closest to his usual seat as he slipped into that spot. He was sure the general conversation would be all about summer plans, and he was very much looking forward to his own. "This summer's going to be the best," he said with a smile to Char, turning back to her as he played with her fingers. Of course, he said that every year, but he was sure this one would really be better than the others so far. And summer officially started tomorrow. He could hardly wait.
"Of course!" Char was happy to follow to the Hufflepuff table. She wanted to spend her last feast with Henry anyway. THEIR last feast. Last Hogwarts feast. It was going to be a GOOD feast (she was hungry okay?) She scooted in next to him, right up close, and looked around, waving over at the other tables - her sister and best friends over at Ravenclaw, her dormmates at Gryffindor, and of course, her cousin at Slytherin. Others too! Friends everywhere. Phew. Luckily they'd still be her friends when she left or it would get a bit sad and also exhausting trying to say goodbye. As it were she didn't feel like she NEEDED to say goodbye to them. It wasn't goodbye reaaaally. Only goodbye to Hogwarts.... and to FEASTS.
She let Henry play with her fingers, her other hand playing with the snitch pendant around her throat, and turned her attention back to the Hufflepuffs, smiling around at them.
"I can't WAIT for the food!"
