Daphne's hazel eyes shifted from the Professor's boots to her face then back at Colin MacKenzie. "Not to sound like a stick in the mud," chimed in the blond lifting a finger. "But I hardly think..." Anyone should be riding Colin's shoulders. "That riding shoulders can be a safe...endeavor."
Honestly.
Maybe she should take back her words and ride Colin's shoulders anyways.
....
Ha. Ha. No. Never.
'Not to sound like a stick in the mud' - well then, what did she sound like? A fun-killer, that was what.
"Thank you ever so much for sharing your thoughts, Miss Hopton," Bunbury answered the girl with a flick of her eyes, "but I believe I should be the judge of safety. Riding a broomstick would hardly be considered a 'safe endeavor' too, you know."
Not that Bunz minded. She rather liked the thrill of defying danger. Quote:

Colin hoped the kids hated the subject she taught, whatever it may be.
Mackenzie’s eyes widened slightly when Hopton mentioned that she had talked with Norwood earlier. Oh, Merlin, hopefully Norwood hadn’t done something to make the paparazzi get a bigger pay in their paychecks or had managed to end up doing something he could easily get sued for. Yes, Rex was definitely going to hear a word or two (a whole speech, actually!) about Norwood.
Ahh, I see,” he said, after Hopton had clapped him on the side of the arm. “Thank you for saying that I have handsome shoulders. I’d be a complete wreck without them out there on the pitch, I would. Well, if you do happen to come across Norwood any time soon, just make sure you let me know. Hopefully he won’t do something incredibly stupid like-”
His sentence was interrupted when MacKenzie noticed a certain redhead making her way through to tent. Over to HIM! A large grin appearing on his face, he watched as the Captain for Hogwarts during the first session of that match halted in front of him. She did get those bugs out of her gorgeous red hair right? It looked like she had, which was a good thing for everyone – mostly him, however.
“Well, I had to survive in order to see you, miss, didn’t I? How else would I be able to see the first Hogwarts Captain after that terrible accident of yours if I didn’t?” he asked, trying to change to his Quidditch loss to a bunch of professors and little, hyperactive children (who seemed to make up most of the team, actually). Ha! That’s how Hogwarts won: they gave the kids a whole bunch of sugar. No wonder…
He chuckled when the redhead asked if he was just giving rides to the students. “Well, in a way, I suppose,” he began, still wearing that grin. “I was just asking Miss Hopton here if she’d like to look for Norwood for me on my shoulders, but she’d rather stick to the ground. One time opportunity. Though I could let you have a go, just for you.” Wink. "And I'm so pleased that you did survive," Annie turned back toward Mackenzie, warming up to him with a little grin. Obviously, he could care less about 'dangerous' activities. Tutut Hopton.
Briefly wondering where Nor Woods was and why the Hot Scot was interested in a forest, Anastasia took a step closer to the Quidditch professional and eyed his shoulders. "Hmmm, they look safe enough to me," she decided, gently brushing her fingers down one of his muscley arms before planting her hand on her hip. "But I'm wearing a skirt, you see, so I hardly think that would be appropriate. Shame it's a one-time opportunity." And of course she winked back.
