Preston was so excited for the first official day of classes, though, he had already tripped through the entrance to the Hufflepuff Common Room followed by, tripping down two sets of stairs later in the morning. And lets not forget knocking down a set of armor as well. Though it appeared Preston had a rough morning for an eleven year old, Preston was used to it. Well, maybe not the armor but the tripping and stairs were quite common.

Lunch time had rolled around and Preston had found that the Great Hall was too much of a distraction at meal times, he would get caught up in watching the other students for his House and others as they ate and interacted with each other that he never got to eat much food.

Thus, Preston had quickly gone into the Great Hall, grabbed a couple of sandwiches, and headed outside; Ringo the raccoon was now at his feet following Preston to the Courtyard where he watched Preston plop down on the grass legs spread out in front of him and began to eat a sandwich looking at Ringo sitting in front of him, plump like a cat watching a bird fly outside a window.
