As he got to the door, he saw Rylee standing there. He had a feeling he knew what this was about. But he waited to answer until he had swallowed the the doughnut completely. He pulled the door open, "Hello, Rylee. It's good to see you. Please, come in. Have a seat in one of the chairs by my desk." He pointed to the right, while moving out of the way and holding the door open for her.
When the door in front of her opened, Rylee sucked in a slow breath, blowing it out even more slowly.
"Hello, Professor. It's nice to be back," she whispered softly in reply. Being back at Hogwarts meant she would be busy again and keeping busy was the very best thing for her right now.
"Thank you." Rylee managed a very small smile while slipping past Tristan into the hut. A quick glance around and seeing her HoH point to the right where there was indeed a desk and some chairs she nodded. Selecting one of the chairs closest to her she slipped down onto the seat.
"I'll try not to take up to much of your time as I'm sure you're probably very busy..." Plus all she really needed was the work she had missed.
