"Welll, some Slytherins can be mean, I guess, but the Hufflepuffs are usually nice," Lucy responded, placing her hand under her chin as if in thought, "Which Hufflepuff could possible have made you angry?" Lucy asked her thoughtfully. Quote:

It was like someone had lifted a huge weight off his shoulders. He didn't think his name would be a bother anymore; everyone he'd spoken to (all of three people, well, technically two) had not teased him about it and Lucy had actually just admitted that she liked unusual names, which his most certainly was. It made him feel all warm inside.
He turned to look at her at her next comment, both his eyebrows raised, before he could contain it no longer. An actual laugh escaped his lips, and even though it was small and short and more like a chuckle than anything, it felt good; he grinned. "Not bad, Lucy, not bad," he said, with a slight shake of his head. "But I think you're right; maybe I do need to wait a bit before they cool down. The whole burning my mouth thing isn't really working out," He moved his tongue about his mouth experimentally. It felt numb. He frowned, drawing his stare away from the chips before he took another sip of pumpkin juice.
He listened to the two girls curiously, occasionally taking glances at the food but hastily turning his focuus away from them and back towards the conversation. An irritable Hufflepuff? He thought they were supposed to be fluffy, jolly people. Well, that had certainly proved him wrong. And Alexandra was a lonely first year. Well, he was a lonely fourth year. He stifled a smirk. It was almost meant to be... And with that, he gulped down the last of his pumpkin juice. Alexandra smiled, it seems like Lucy may very well be right. The younger kids she had met were awfully unfriendly, aside from Lorcan."It seems like most everyone around here is very helpful also." she said with a smile. "I think the Huffies name was Kay. I thought they were all supposed to be sweet people too, but she seemed to have a problem with me from the time I met her." Alexandra said with shrug."Well, yeah the Slytherin didn't surprise me too much." Alexandra added as an afterthought.
She smiled at Happy and said to him, "How are you? I overheard you introduced yourself as Happy. I'm Alexandra Kennedy. It is really nice to meet you." |
