"Oh, Garrett, it was exciting, thank you." She twirled a piece of blonde hair around her index finger as her green eyes searched the tent for a moment. "I do hope you enjoyed the game as well." So much for small talk. "Umm, do you play?" She didn't know much about this Hufflepuff and maybe it was time to learn.
Garret offered her the plate of cake, trying to get it out of his hands so he didn't look so stupid holding two plates of cake. The gesture was supposed to be a smooth here-that's-for-you move, but it resulted in more of a take-it-take-it-take-it move instead as he seemed to be holding the plate out to her at a right angle.
He was momentarily stupefied by the beauty of her ... beautiful eyes as she looked at him and spoke TO him. Garret hoped everyone was watching because WOW WOW WEE WA! was Lyra Noir one of the most beautiful creatures that had ever walked the grounds of Hogwarts.
"I play o'er the summer," he said, flexing a scrawny arm while still holding the plate of cake, "But not for the house... not yet, anyway." He was determined as ever to make the team, and he would not stop trying out term after term, until he was allowed to fly in the yellow and black, "Me cousin Mars plays for the Puddlemore United reserve team, if you're interested in watching a real match over the hols."
