And two, he had forgotten that there just may be an influx of students this term from those in fourth year choosing to continue on with the Advanced level. And from looking around, there were A LOT of fourth years present.
Noticing how distracted the Professor seemed, Dom wondered what was on her mind. Though as one of her house prefects, he knew better than to ask. If she wanted to share, then she would at her own convenience. So giving her a brief nod and smile in greeting, the sixth year turned and looked for a seat - a feat seemingly near impossible until he spotted Cel-an-dine sitting alone in the back. Odd.
"Hey Cel-an-dine," he commented politely, sliding into the seat next to her and pulling out his Arithmancy notes.
"Dom-in-ick." Celandine greeted in return, smiling up at him impishly, "Look, long skirt." She tugged the edge of her robes back to reveal her school skirt which wasn't really
long, but it did nearly reach her knees. She opened her text book and began revising, her fingers finding a lock of her hair and corkscrewing it slowly as she skimmed over the text.
