Zander walked into the dormitories with a huge smile on his face. The day had been pretty successful. Tiring? Yes. But successful. He had just made it down from the library, where he had successfully finished the Astronomy assignment. AH. So much hard work, but hey, at least he was earning some house points along the way right? Roar, roar Gryffindor!

The third year ran up to his trunk and started rummaging through, looking for his chocolate stash. "Got-to-be-somewhere-in-here," the boy grumbled. His trunk was such a mess that it was hard enough even trying to look at what was lying in it. How could he manage to find his stash in this mess? So instead of continuing searching through this madness he began throwing things out onto the floor around him.

Soon enough all his things began piling up to create a little fortress. BUT ALAS, THE CHOCOLATE! The small boy unwrapped several chocolate frogs and other goodies in his excitement and began stuffing them all in his face. MMHHHHHHMMMMMM. This was some good stuff!

Uh ohhhh. He definitely ate a whole lotta chocolate. Too much chocolate. Chocolate overload. CHOCOLATE COMA! It was actually quite a site. A boy lying on the ground, rolling back and forth, surrounded by tons of wrappers, and enveloped by a pile of clothes and other things that were once found in his trunk. What a site.

Kevin had gone back to the Gryffindor Common room because he had forgotten to take his exploding potion with him. He didn't want it to be in the Dormitory in case someone found it but wanted to have the vial with him in case he got a perfect opportunity to use it. And in case someone was wondering. The potion was completely legal. No seriously...it was.

He ran up the stairs with two steps at the same time and went to the second year room. He walked over to his own bed and looked under his bed. Pushing a trunk aside, and some candy wrappers the second year found the vial against the wall under the bed and reached out to grab it. Good hiding place eh?

As he pocketed the vial, he left the dormitory and as he was ready to walk downstairs he heard something coming from a different year's room. Curious, Kevin walked back and opened the door to where he heard the noise and saw.....A guy rolling around on the floor ...uhm...okay?

He stood in the doorway with his eyebrow raised. "Dude..what's your problem?"

So much chocolate. It hurt. But it was so good. It hurt so good. Zander continued rolling around, as if it would help? Which it didn't. But it just seemed like the right thing to do. Just like eating all that chocolate only seemed like the right thing to do. Which was wrong. Zander was sooo wrong. Definitely a poor use of judgement. And this is why he isn't a Ravenclaw. Because Ravenclaws probably know the right amount of chocolate to eat because isn't that what Ravenclaw is all about? Didn't Rowena Ravenclaw say "Knowing the right chocolate measure is a man's greatest treasure," or something like that? Yeah. Totally a Ravenclaw thing.

All rolling and chocolate pain aside, Zander did notice some footsteps leading towards his dorm. Uh oh. Please don't be a prefect, please don't be a prefect, please don't be a--

Oh. Eh, it was just a kid. Back to rolling. AH, so the kid speaks. Zander immediately stopped rolling and looked up at said kid. What's his problem!? Zander doesn't have any problems. HMPHM. Oh wait, he was referring to the rolling and the groaning and the mess and oh. In that case, Zander has many problems. "Tooo..... Much..... Chocolate," the third year lifted up all the wrappers and threw them in the air. SEE kid?! TOO MUCH! Don't try this at home.

Too much chocolate.....riiiiiight....

Kevin rolled his eyes as watched the weird boy rolling around on the floor. Why were all older students just plain...WEIRD? Was he really the only NORMAL one? ahem

He walked in to the room now and sat down on one of the beds. He had no idea who's it was but they probably wouldn't mind. And if they did, well too bad! "What was in that chocolate anyways?" he asked as he looked from the many wrappers on the floor and to his classmate. "Essence of Insanity?"

And could he have some?

Hey YOU KID, don't think Zander missed that eye roll. Because he totally caught that. Except being the mature one who also happens to be rolling on the floor as a direct result of a "chocolate overload" he decided to ignore the foolish behavior. YOU'RE WELCOME.

Zander watched as the kid made it over to the beds. Whose bed was that again? Eh. like Zander even payed any attention to that sort of thing. He only cared where his bed was, and that was only because he has had another stash of chocolate hidden under there too. Except he ate that too. And that is why he is in this painful experience. That is exactly why.

"Uh, I don't know, but I think there should be directions on how many of these things you can eat," he replied with a shrug. It's not like Zander would have read the directions anyways. Directions were for dweebs. Most of the time. And that's why he and Culloden didn't see eye-to-eye.

AHHHHHHH! Zander jumped into the air and without another word he ran into the bathroom. This was all so unlike him. Normally he was all shy and embarrassed, but this chocolate just made him so so hyper. After a few minutes the young Gryffindor ran out with a look of relief across his face. "Oooooh, much better," he smiled and rubbed his stomach. "This calls for a celebration!" MORE CHOCOLATE!

Zander ran to his four-poster bed and struggled to dig his hand under the mattress. AHA! Exactly two chocolate frogs left. "You want one?" he said as he through the chocolate to the boy without even waiting for a response. Then he unwrapped his own. Why he was having more chocolate? Because he isn't a Ravenclaw. That's why.

Kevin raised a perfect eyebrow at the third year Gryffindor. Did he really say that there should be directions on how many of those chocolates they should eat? Was he stupid or something?

oh good question! "I think you're dumb, who on earth needs directions on how to eat chocolate?!" Yes, he was seriously question this weird boy. Especially when he got up from the floor all of the sudden ran out of the dormitory.

Whaaaat was going on? Kevin looked in the direction where he went and heard the door to the boy's bathroom shut close and he chuckled. That's what you get for being stupid hehe. After time past by and the older Gryffindor still hadn't come back, Kevin stood up from the bed he was sitting on and walked to the door , ready to leave the common room. This was probably a moment where he should check if the guy was alright but to be honest he did not care.

But before he could leave the third year dormitory , the other came back and Kevin leaned against the door to watch him grab something from under his mattress. Wait...he was giving a chocolate frog TO HIM?!

The boy blinked his eyes a couple of times as he stared at the frog and to the guy and then back to the frog. Was there something behind this? Last time someone had been nice to him he got pranked with a KISS ME! note stuck on his back.

"Uhm...okay..." he answered slowly as he took the chocolate frog from him. If this was another prank he had an exploding potion and was not afraid to use it

Zander could just feel the judgement coming from this boy. He was a sassy one. Normally this would bother the third year, but he had his chocolate and this meant happy place. And no amount of judgement could ruin that. So instead of acknowledging the sass and the "you'e dumb" comment, he just continued his train of thought, "Well a dosage amount would be nice you know. Not instructions for how to eat them, because that'd be stupid," he replied back. Nope no sass was going to bother Zander today. HE HAD CHOCOLATE.

The Gryffindor watched as Mr. Sassy Pants over here looked at the chocolate reluctantly. "Well, kid, what are you waiting for?" Zander had already devoured his in the mean time. It was literally taking all his strength not to jump out and steel Sass Pant's peice. Wait... Did Mr. Sass Pants have a name? "So kid, what's your name and why is it taking you so long to eat your chocolate? Are you afraid of it or something? Because I promise it won't bite," he said.

This guy had definitely not been a hatstall for Ravenclaw. He certainly wasn't smart enough. And after his comment about that there should be a dosage amount on how many chocolate frogs to eat until one got sick, Kevin was seriously thinking that the frogs HAD been spiked with Essence of Insanity.

"You didn't know you'd get a stomach ache if you eat too much chocolate? You really are stupid..." he wasn't even sorry for saying this. Actually, Kevin was never sorry when he was rude. Which basically got him in to trouble all the time...

Kevin looked at the chocolate frog and back to the older Gryffindor yet again. And then rolled his eyes when he called him kid. "Don't call me a kid, okay?" he hated that, he was twelve! He took the chocolate frog from him after a few moments and opened the package around it. The chocolate frog jumped in the air but Kevin managed to grab it and quickly bit off its head.

"Kevin" he said as he chewed on the chocolate. "And i KNOW it doesn't bite, i'm not stupid like you" oh man he was never going to make friends like this. But he couldn't help it... "The last time someone was nice to me" he said as he took another bite and at the same time checked his Card. "I got pranked so yeah..."

"....ooh! Felix Summerbee, i didn't have that one yet"

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING!

The Bloody Baron had ruined the poltergeist's fun in the dungeons, so now his mischievous orange eyes were searching for the next place to play. Like going through students' trunks and hanging their underwear all around the common room for everyone to see!

"PEEVESY DOESN'T EITHER!" Peeves cackled gleefully as he swooped in and snatched the chocolate frog card right out of the student's hand.

THIS was going to be MUCH more fun than underwear!

"PEEVESY DOES NOW! NO TAKEY BACKS! MINE MINE MINE!" he taunted while waving the card in both boy's faces as he hovered above them.

Hearing a cackle outside of the dormitory , Kevin turned his head to the door just in time to see Peeves flying inside of the room. The boy groaned out loud. He was not in the mood for Peeves right now so he decided to ignore the Poltergeist.

It didn't matter to him if he trashed this place because this wasn't his dormitory anyways. It was from the third years so yeah...go ahead. But when he snatched the chocolate frog card out of his hand, Kevin snapped.

"PEEVES! THAT'S MINE! GIVE IT BACK NOW" He shouted, reaching for the card that the poltergeist was waving in front of his face. Wait...what was he even doing? He was a wizard!

Taking out his wand, the second year pointed it at Peeves who was hovering above him and the other older Gryffindor boy. "GIVE IT BACK NOW OR I'LL CURSE YOU!" Not that he knew many spells....but trying to scare him would hopefully be enough.

Zander narrowed his eyes as the kid spoke with yet another RUDE response. HMPH. Well he was in his happy place. He couldn't possibly let one rude kid ruin that. So instead of responding and giving the kid what he wanted, Zander just simply said nothing. Yeah that's right he's taking the high road, Mr. Sass Pants. You know third year maturity and all.

And then suddenly Zander realized who this kid was. He was the one who had gotten detention for Culloden. AH. So he was always rude. Hadn't he learned his lesson the first time? Didn't detention teach him anything? The nerve.

"Well maybe people aren't nice to you because you aren't nice to them, KEVIN," he made a point to emphasize kid's name. Not calling him kid anymore, happy? "When you're nice to people, they're generally nice back. You should try it sometime," it could actually be fun. Hmph. Zander could even get lessons. They could do some kind of exchange. KEVIN could teach Zander how to be all assertive and less shy. And Zander could teach KEVIN a thing or two about being a good person. It would all work out iin the end.

Zander took out his card as well and ugh. Albus Dumbledore. He had like ten of those. Just with this stash of chocolate alone. Even though he was technically angry with KEVIN's rude comments, he didn't really need the extra card. So putting his anger aside, he decided to be nice. Because that's what nice people like Zander do. SEE KEVIN?! Kindness is why he has friends. "You want mine, I have way too many of his--" But before he could continue, PEEVES.

NASTY GHOST TOOK THE CARD! Well... KEVIN did deserve it. But then again, he did feel kind of bad. Ooooh maybe he could save the card for KEVIN and then KEVIN would start being nice to him and they could actually be friends. YES. Zander Adair to the rescue! Now how do you get something back from a ghost?

But it looked like KEVIN had some other plans... "Uh, dude. I don't think you can hex a ghost... Wouldn't it just, you know... Go through them?" Either way Zander would find a way to retrieve that card! "UGH PEEVES, go mess with some annoying Slytherins or something!"

At this point, the third year was jumping up and down trying to reach Peeves and the card, but it wasn't really working. MUST. GET. CARD. BACK.

Peeves began making all sorts of disgusting kissy noises as he pressed his poltergeist lips to the card and paid little attention to the treats from below.

"OH NO! YOU FOUND PEEVESY'S WEAKNESS! SMALL MAGIC STICKS! OOOOOOOOH!" he mocked while blowing raspberries. MORE FUN MORE FUN! "KEVIN KEVIN LOOKS LIKE HE IS SEVEN. KEVIN KEVIN LOOKS LIKE HE IS SEVEN!"

The poltergeist then zigzagged around the room knocking bed post and pelting pillows at the two boys.

"KEVIN KEVIN LOOKING FOR A FIGHT. TRYING TO HIT PEEVESY OUT OF SPITE. HOPEFULLY HIS AIM MAKES UP FOR HIS HEIGHT!"

UGH. This ghost was annoying Zander more and more by the minute. Not to mention the fact that Peeves thought his chants were OH SO clever, which they weren't! Even though Kevin was clearly rubbing Zander the wrong way, Peeves was definitely WAY worse. If Zander had to vote one of them off the island...

It would be Peeves.

"OI! GIVE THAT BACK!" Zander started chasing the poltergeist around the room as he annoyingly zigzagged everywhere. GAH THAT WAS HIS BED POST HE WAS KNOCKING OVER! It took Zander SO long trying to make his bed this morning. PEEEEVES!

"You are SO--" he would've finished screaming, but he was suddenly pelted by pillows. OOOOOOWWWWW. Sure these things were stuffed with feathers, but when five of them were thrown at you with super force, they really hurt!

"Quick, Kevin, under the bed!" Zander pointed out a nearby four poster bed. They could take cover under there and escape the pillows and make some sort of game plan to retrieve the card. There was no way this stupid ghost was getting away with any of this.

Completely ignoring his talk about being nice to others would help people liking him and refusing the card that he was giving because he already had a fe Dumbledore cards, Kevin was now watching a scene of the older Gryffindor chasing after the poltergeist in order to get his card back.

Why was he being so nice to him?! It freaked him out. He was so used to being pushed around or ignored...why was he doing this? Was it possible he was sort of making a friend right now? This freaked him out even more cause he never had any friends.

Oh right...he had forgotten that peeves was technically a ghost and spells would just go right through him but he didn't pocketed his wand back in its wrist holster. He did lower it though just when Peeves started to fly around and trash the place. Kevin wouldn't have minded it cause again....he did not sleep here but when Peeves started to throw pillows at them things became different.

When the poltergeist started making fun of him, Kevin actually looked different. He didn't look like he owned the place and he wasn't saying any snarky comments back. Instead, his gaze was lowered and he was gripping the phoenix wand so tightly as his arm trembled with the force. It had been a long time since someone had made fun of him like that but when he realised he was nearly snapping his wand in two, the Gryffindor got back to earth when the other called for him.

He turned his attention to him when the guy took cover under a bed. "I'm not hiding! I'm a Gryffindor! I stand my ground---" -WHACK-! He was hit in the back of his head by one of the pillows that Peeves was throwing at them. He stumbled forward and when another pillow hit his back, Kevin decided to take cover as well.

"Have any plans?"

Peeves continued to pelt pillows despite the two boys HIDING under the beds and knocked various things off night stands.

Pillows scattered all over the floor, some broken and spewing their feathery guts all over, Peeves zoomed towards the bed the BORING boys were hiding under and BEGAN AGGRESSIVELY JUMPING ON IT!

"NO FUN NO FUN GRYFFINDORS ARE NO FUN! TAKE A PILLOW TO THE FACE AND THEY ARE GONE WITHOUT A TRACE!"

JUMP JUMP JUMP! COME OUT COME OUT!

Why was Zander even trying to be nice to this kid. He clearly didn't care about anything that Zander had to say. Not to mention the fact that the second year kept being all rude and sassy 'n stuff. But it probably had to do with the fact that chocolate just made Zander a more pleasant person. Or maybe it was the fact that Kevin was in Gryffindor and Zander had already made one lion enemy *ahem* Zahra *ahem*. His list of enemies was already reserved for Slytherins. There didn't need to be any more fellow Gryffindors on it.

Ooooor... Maybe it had to do with the look Kevin let off after all of Peeves' teasing. Awh poor Kevin actually looked hurt, instead of normal confident demeanor. He actually looked... kind of helpless? Like an actual second year who wasn't trying to be all rude and sneaky. And Zander actually felt kinda bad for the kid. And in all the spirit of being a nice third year older Lion brother, he'd help. So maybe that was why he was being so nice to the kid who had been so rude just minutes ago.... But it could be something else. Who knows?

Technically... the weren't really hiding. Just coming up with a game plan and shielding themselves from pillows before they got even more hurt. So not hiding, just being innovative and using their surroundings to an advantage? Any plans? Uh... No. Well not yet. He hadn't really thought about it. He just kind of wanted to get away from the pillow grenades.

"One of us can go out as a distraction, while the other grabs the card!" Would that even work? Peeves wasn't to bright. Maybe he'd fall for it? "And the distraction could-- PPPPPFTTT" UGHKK feathers in mouth. FEATHERS IN MOUTH.


Spitting out several feathers, the third year continued,"use the reducto spell we learned in Defense Against the Dark Arts, to blast on coming pillows," he said excitedly. OOOh Maybe they could even get bonus points on homework for extra practice? Peeves would be so focused on the pillow chaos that he couldn't possibly realize that the card was being stolen back!.... hopefully. Thank goodness the ghost was jumping and making so much noise! He won't be able to listen in on the plan.

This plan was full proof. Or at least it seemed full proof? "So, what do you think?" he asked Kevin couriously. The plan was pretty much made up right then and there and that single instance, so it wasn't highly thought about. But it seemed simple enough. "And I can be the distraction if you want?" Zander offered. "You know, 'cause it's your card and all."

Hiding no...shielding themselves under the bed with Peeves jumping up and down on it, Kevin winced when the bed made contact against his back with each jump. He grinned however when the older Gryffindor suddenly had a mouthful of feathers.

Use the Reducto spell on the oncoming pillows? That was like...BRILLIANT and it even sounded fun! So the boy nodded his head vigorously , hitting the back of his head against the bed above him.

"I like this, you're cooler than i thought you first were" maybe his parents were right and he had to get to KNOW other people first before judging them. "I also have an expl---ah no nevermind , the Reducto spell will do" He had wanted to say that he had an exploding potion that he had gotten from Professor Culloden as a gift in his pocket, charmed so that it wouldn't go off inside of it. He wanted to keep the potion for another time.

"Cover me okay?" he whispered as he moved to get and get out from under the bed. He turned to look at the guy who's name he still didn't know and counted with his fingers from

3....2...1....

Zander suppressed a small chuckle at Kevin's enthusiasm. He didn't say anything, but silently thought that the Gryffindor did kinda deserve that knock in the head. Heh. But luckily they were sort of becoming friends now? So he wouldn't mention it. Ah, only the truest bonds of friendship are the ones that form during an extreme pillow fight against an annoying Hogwarts ghost. How lovely.

Cool? Yes. Yes, Zander is TOTALLY COOL. Thanks kid. Thanks. "Ha, thanks, I guess you're not too bad either," he said chucking. So he was finally getting on Kevin's good side. At least for now. Who knew how things would go after they defeated Peeves and reclaimed their rightful land of Gryffindor dormitories.

Before Zander could say anything else, however, Kevin had already gotten ready to run out from under the bed. "You got it!" he shouted back. Three... Two...

ONE! Zander ran out and jumped right in front of Peeves' line of sight. "REDUCTO!" he screamed as he pointed to an oncoming pillow. Feathers burst EVERYWHERE, but Zander shooed them all away with his arms. Then, running in circles in front of the ghost he yelled tauntingly, "HEY PEEVES, I BET YOU CAN'T HIT ME! NA NA NA YOU CAN'T CATCH ME!" He stuck out his tongue and made that "PPPPFFFTTTT" sound. Ha. Ghost won't even know what's coming. He stole a glance to the side to make sure Kevin was doing alright.

Where was all this sudden confidence coming from? It definitely couldn't be just the chocolate. Maybe it had to do with Kevin's acceptance....

JUMP JUMP JUMP JUMP JUMP!

He continued to jump on the bed which the two Gryffindors were currently being party poopers under as his eyes grew wilder and eager for mischief.

"BORING BORING HIDING GRYFFINDORS ARE BORING!" he chanted while making more fart noises. He was even beginning to lose interest in the chocolate frog card still in his grasp. May as well toss it out the window really...

"BRAVEY WAVEY ZANDY CHALLENGES PEEVESY?!" the poltergeist cackled. He then zoomed around the dormitory once again, scooping up and pelting the pillows from the ground at Zander with a crooked grin.

Bravey wavey Zandy? Well that one was new. Points to Peeves for originality? Ugh. Why did he have to volunteer to deal with the ghost. He should've taken up the other job. Because even just hearing Peeves make fun of him drove the boy insane.

... And more pillows. Great.

Zander pointed his wand at the new storm of pillows "REDUCTO!" he shouted. AHHH SO MANY PILLOWS! "RUDCTO.... REDUCTO.... REDUCTO!" Zander hardly had any time to breathe in between all the spellwork. He was basically just turning and screaming one after the other. And to make it worse, with each hit at an oncoming pillow, more and more pillows rained everywhere.

This was a huge mess. Uh oh. Hopefully none of the Professors would see it...

"Awh, is that all you've got?" Zander taunted. "This is WAY TOO EASY! I COULD TAKE YOU DOWN EVEN IN MY SLEEP!" He stole another sideways glance at Kevin. Poor Zander had no idea how long he could actually go against Peeves for. His wand arm was getting tired already.

Having NO IDEA what Bravey Wavey Zandy meant , since he had no idea that the other Gryffindor's name was Zander and it would have been a nickname, the boy rolled his eyes. When Zander called out the poltergeist, Kevin had crawled out from under the bed at the other side and stayed low as he moved to the next bed, using the curtains as a hiding place.

Pillows flew by and he heard the older guy shout out the Reducto spell at each and everyone one of them. He was good if Kevin had to admit. Moving closer to Peeves, the twelve year old almost groaned when he flew to the other side. SERIOUSLY?! Just stay in one place okay!?

Moving to the next bed, Kevin looked at Zander at the moment he glanced at him and he waved his hand as a gesture that he should continue with the distraction and his eyes definitely had a 'Idiot! Don't look my way' look.

More LOUD explosions were heard from the boys dormitory and Kevin hoped that Bentley or one of the Prefects weren't notified. Last thing he wanted was to clean up this mess that wasn't even their fault. ...Well, it was mostly Zander's and Peeves's fault, Kevin hadn't touched a pillow. HA.

It took a while but eventually, Kevin was behind Peeves and he hated it that he didn't know the summoning charm yet. He was definitely going to learn that one after this was over. Tiptoeing forward, the Gryffindor held in his breath as he reached out for the card....

OH WHAT FUN WHAT FUN!

"BRAVEY WAVEY ZANDY MAKE THINGS GO BOOM!" Peeves shriek with delight. Even better than the poltergeist had anticipated. Oooooooooooooooooh Gryffindors in troouble! "PEEVSEY GO TELL PLANT LADY WHAT YOU DO! POOR ZANDY WANDY BE FED TO FLESH EATING PLANTSIES!"

Spinning around like a top on the spot, he noticed the other one trying to sneak up on him. Silly willy Gryffindor. No one sneaks up on him! Zooming forward, Peeves took hold of Kevin's nose and gave it a tight squeeze while blowing a raspberry right in his face and then zoomed over to one of the windows.

All this for a chocolate frog card? Peeves was amused.

"YOU WANT IT BACK? GO FETCH!" he proclaimed as he tossed the card right out the window. "HEHEHEHEHEHEHE!"

And then he turned himself invisible and was gone.

His hand was nearly at the card wheeeen... Peeves turned around. Kevin's miss-colored eyes widened and before he could do anything his nose was squeezed tightly and he yelled out in pain. "OWOWOWOW LET GO!" and blowing a raspberry? seriously?! Closing his eyes as he did that, the Gryffindor then rubbed his slightly red nose when the poltergeist let go and when he looked again Peeves wasn't in front of him anymore.

Spotting him near one of the windows now with HIS card in hand and Kevin knew what he was going to do. "NO!" He shouted and ran towards the window the moment Peeves had turned invisible and he was just in time to see the card he hadn't had yet for his collection fall down on the snowy ground. "PEEVES! GET BACK HERE!" he shouted frustratingly as he looked around the room with fire in his eyes but couldn't find him anywhere.

They changed in to a look of panic as he REALLY looked around the room now. "Dude, if Peeves is going to tell Bentley, we'll be in so much trouble for this mess!" Bentley was the only Professor Kevin had a good relationship with but that was only because she was his Head of House. Why would he make his hogwarts life difficult by pranking her? Seee...he could be smart.

Zander's eyes widened at the mention of "Plant Lady". OH NO. He stopped looking for flying pillows, and instead turned his attention to THIS HUGE MESS. Feathers everywhere, beds in complete disarray, and pillows all over the floor. This is bad. Really bad.

And with a blink of an eye the poltergeist was gone! "GET BACK HERE PEEVES!" he screamed, but it was hopeless. He followed Kevin to the window. Oh no oh no oh no. This is so bad. Forget the card, LOOK AT THIS ROOM!

Zander then turned to Kevin, who looked just as panicked as he was. This is terrible. Zander really liked Bentley. A lot. She was his favorite. And he tried oh so hard to keep a good relationship with her AND THIS WOULD RUIN IT.

Merlin.

"Oh no! What do we do!?" He looked around the room in utter panic. Trying to clean the place up would take AGES. And with the ghost already on his way, Bentley would already be back by the time they started cleaning. "Do you think if we explained, she'd understand?" It was the ghost who had started this mess? AH the Gryffindor just didn't want to lose any house points.

This is why he didn't go out much. He kept a low profile so that THESE things didn't happen. So much for going out on a limb this term. Maybe it'd be best for everyone if he just ducked down again....

Oh Merlin.
