It was all that Dominic Denton’s fault that he, Seth Paton, was here in the hospital wing in the first place! Yeah, he might’ve deserved getting pelted by acorns just a little bit, but he did nothing to deserve this. Placing a hand over his left eye, the fifth year prefect made his way to the waiting room. At least the place was acorn free and, more importantly, Dominic Denton free. Hopefully.

Walking past the people that were already in the waiting room and taking a seat, he wrapped his free arm around himself and waiting for someone to come and tend to him. Whether it was the school nurse or Trelawney, he did not care. All he cared about was getting rid of that cursed black eye before the whole school came to investigate.

”Stupid Denton. Stupid acorns,” Seth muttered under his breath. “Stupid, stupid, stupid!”
