The Joy of [Sitting]

[potter_fan122]

Stacey sat in the Gryffindor common room; head leaned back, feet up. Her eyes were closed and a soft blacket was layed over her arms. She took in a deep breath, obviously not alseep, but appearing so.

Goblet walked in the common room with a book cupped in his arm. He sat down across from a girl who was either resting her eyes or napping, he couldn't tell which. She wouldn't be bother. And even if she woke up, it would be better than outside with all the activity that is about. Goblet opened his book up and began reading.

Stacey slowly cracked an eye open and sat up when she saw it was... Goblet? She had seen him in passing, but didn`t really know him. 'Hello." She said softly.

Leah heard someone in the common room downstairs, and decided to see who it was.  She walked until she could see down the stairs and then called softly, "Hello?  Is anyone down there?"

She stopped, awaiting the reply.  She was clad in plaid sweatpants and striped mukluks.  She shirt was navy blue with a white recycling sign on it.  She didn't dress to impress, but rather, put comfort above all else.

So she did wake up. No matter. Goblet didn't get in the zone yet in his reading so he didn't mind to detract himself from it. He doesn't recall ever exchanging pleasantries before with the girl on the couch, but he thinks he has seen her walking the halls before.

Another voice came from the dormitories upstairs, choosing to ignore it (not necessarily out of disrespect) Goblet replied to the apparently sleepy girl, "Hello there, fellow Gryffindorian."

[potter_fan122]

"Hello," Stacey said softly. "Goblet right?" She asked before turning around to face th stairs. "Come on down, Leah." She called, knowing she would hear her perfectly well. Her eyes changed green as she snuggled into the corner of the couch.

((Your icon is way too funny Stacey!!))

Leah began walking down the stairs as soon as she heard Stacey call.  "Hey! It's Goblet right?" She said to the boy sitting there.  She had heard about him and seen him in the halls, but never truly met.

[potter_fan122]

((I know, but it`s sooo true! Like, literally!))

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"You're both right," said Goblet upon the two girls confirming his name. Looks like his book will have to be read later. He set it on his side between the armrest and his hip. "But I am afraid I don't know either of your names." Goblet now set his concentration on his new company.

[potter_fan122]

"Stacey." Stacey answered quickly. She tilted her head towards the fireplace, her eyes grey.

[dobby888]

"Leah" She said, coming to sit in a cushioned armchair.  She rubbed the end of an arm absentmindedly, as she let her eyes wander around the room.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"Nice to meet you Leah and Stacey," said Goblet genuinely. "It's a pleasure to meet you."

[potter_fan122]

Stacey snorted, but kept her thoughts in her head. She wondered what Leah would think if she had heard... "Nice to meet you, Goblet."

[dobby888]

Leah's eyes flashed to Stacey and she giggled.  She shook her head, Stacey's thoughts were so easy to read sometimes.

"So, uh, Goblet... What year are you in?"  She asked, attempting to start a conversation.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

The two girls are either very good friends or they could read minds, or both. Goblet felt like there was some communication between the two that he is not part of. Are they secretly judging him based on this brief period of their first true confrontation? Goblet tried to dismiss such a thought. He was cynical enough as it is.

"I am a seventh year," he replied. "And you two?"
