But then he heard what sounded like a cry for Help so up he went...and stood at the door briefly. To Open it he would need to either set the Weight down, or his jar of sweet, delicious Honey. He chose the former and let the 50lbs weight make a loud thud..."Help with what? I said I was busy." He opened the door, then scratched his greyed beard with the Honey crusted into it, and looked down at the crying Girl...OH DEAR! OH NO DID HE DO THAT!?! ALL JUST FROM YELLING THROUGH HIS DOOR....Poor Kid. "Errr...Uh....Help with what?" Damn Kid was gonna make him leave his Hut for something wasn't she?
Bev heard that loud thud and jumped. Oh gods. What if she disturbed him and made him angry and now he was going to give her detention. Crud.
"I-I-" He didn't sound too happy. That wasn't part of the plan. "U-U-Ummm..."
She froze when the door opened, and sort of shrunk into herself. Big groundskeeper was big. Maybe she should have waited for her companion to do the knocking and use them as a shield. Beverly blinked up at the man with big teary eyes for a bit and...
Oi! WAS THAT HONEY?
It was all over his beard and--the Hufflepuff. RIGHT. And crying. Lots of crying. Getting over her initial surprise, Beverly sniffled.
"He's hurt, he's really hurt," she cried. "This boy--" SNIFF "--he was looking for his toad and collapsed and--" SOBBING "--people are saying he's DEAD." Did he hear that? DEAD.
Jeez, she hoped the Gryffindor Prefect would be proud of her for this. The older girl had said to make it seem like it was really urgent. This worked, yeah?
