Aaron.... was running late.

There really was no excuse, but if he had to provide one, everything wouldn't been blamed on his faulty alarm. It'd made him late for lessons a few times (SWEAR!)... and the fact that that he was having - what he wouldn't have called "nightmares", but "loud dreams" - didn't really help. He depended on the jolt to wake, but he'd slept dead to the world the last few days. Far from the reach of his dinky clock, anyway. Maybe he needed to ask Abey to make it louder for him. Because Abey knew everything. Their school was even recognizing this in Prefecting his cousin (which he would maybe exploit for the awesome bathroom at a later time). Ahem, he'd know what to do to fix it.

.... Anyway, shouldering his bat, the Hufflepuff full-stop ran, lungs nearly bursting, to the pitch. Aside from the kitchens being close, this was another perk of having a common room on the ground floor. He was late, but this would make him... less late? Maybe Bel would be understanding and not get too angry. His Captain was the epitome of awesome and terribly clever, Aaron had a difficult time seeing her as the sort to reprimand and use angry words. He remained such a fan (with a huge crush, shhhh!).

He'd cropped up just as they were finishing introductions. UUUUGH, MAN... He tried not to be too put out, it was his own fault (secretly), but he always liked hearing about his potential teammates. Well, at least he knew most of them. Like Bel, and Derf, and Charlie. Errrr, but maybe he'd have to out himself? because, what were they clipping onto the front of their brooms? Blinking owlishly, he moved a bit closer to get a better look at the device. Huh, that was clever! SEE, BEL WAS SO CLEVER (and pretty, and fit)! He tried very hard not to swoon... might've failed, actually, but... anyway. Time to fly! Grabbing one of the projectors? That's what they were? He attached it to his broom. Ahem, Aaron pretended not to snoop where Derf placed his. Just to make sure he was doing it right, and all that!

He would regret not doing a more thorough warm-up later, but he had ran the entire way to the grounds and that would have to do for now. With a few quick glances at the rest of his housemates, Aaron was airborne and barreling off to start his laps.
