Eye on the Ball
Tuesday: October 1, 2019
Different Houses and different schedules… but with a few owls exchanged, he was able to secure a meeting/get-together/study session with Heather that afternoon, catching up with her at the Library. Setting his bookbag down at one of the tables, he took out his Potions textbook and latest homework assignment for the class, which was turning out to be his trickiest subject this year. Venturing into the aisles, he began browsing for more sources related to his essay, plucking several books from the shelves and hauling them back to his table. Feverishly flipping through the pages and jotting down notes, every so often he'd have to stand back up again and search for another book that he felt was better suitable in providing more information for his essay. He didn't mean to be a perfectionist, but aiming for an O required thorough research. He'd likely have to read a hundred books to cover all the information the professor might be looking for in his assignment.
While browsing through the depths of one of the aisles with Heather, in an area where they might get away with raising their voices slightly above a whisper, Andrew brought it up.
"So apparently there's this Masquerade Ball coming up and everyone's asking everyone who's gonna be their dates for the Ball," he said casually, glancing at Heather. "Has anyone asked you yet? To be their date?" He pried inquisitively.
