Callie had to fight the urge to close her eyes as the balloon floated there for what seemed to be the longest 10 seconds. She let out a sigh of relief as "Cale did it! He really proved himself!" She thought when suddenly . . . CRASH!
"Oh dear! I'm so sorry" Callie said turning towards the Slytherin boy who's shoes were now soaked.
"These things can happen. This is a great example for everyone to take note of!" Callie said turning towards the class. "Levitating the balloon over your classmate's head is just half the battle. You need to keep concentrating until that balloon has safely landed back on the desk in front of you."
Turning back towards Cale, Callie nodded "An excellent, yet unfortunate display. You almost had it. Would you care to try again?"
"Umm, sure," Cale said, whipping his head away from the puddle around Nico's feet that he had been staring at. Ok, it had really been an accident but it was still just TOO funny.
"Wingardium Leviosa," he muttered again, lifting it over her head once more. This time, the seconds seemed to go by quicker than before. And it had gotten easier to resist the urge to drown her in a well deserved bit of embarrassment. He even grinned as he pulled the balloon away after ten seconds and safely put the balloon back on the desk in front of him.
But a split second after the balloon made contact with the table, it burst and proceeded to drench the front of Cale's robes. Lovely. Just lovely. It was just his luck that he would manage to soak HIMSELF in front of the whole class.
Well, at least it wasn't his hair this time.
