The Sun & Her Flowers Closed

Friday, one holy grail of days of the week, Bellamy was so glad when it arrived. Every day for him was a pain to deal with. Classes were a nuisance to deal with, though it was usually the people in the classes. Homework stacked like snow in winter; that was traumatizing for him but he dealt with it. Sleeping was a challenge being he had to deal with four other guys living with him in the same room; he hoped for a private room when entering Hogwarts but that didn't happen obviously. Adjusting to his first year at Hogwarts was an act of trials he had to adjust to. This school was definitely a different experience for him as he never had to do this before although he loved it. This was a whole new environment for him to explore its wonders and the Great Hall for him was one of them.

At lunch, this was his resting place. It was his sanctuary. Nobody bothered him at lunch, not even his sister, not even his fellow Slytherins. He was always by himself eating in peace not worrying about a single thing. The hall itself was all that he needed as the pictures and the ceiling were his entertainment. Bellamy could spend an eternity in here, he loved it. While other houses ate their food at their respected tables he sat alone slowly eating, gazing into space. Today apparently was even better as the hall wasn't as crowded as before, he didn't know why it was like this but it did not matter to him, fewer people the better it was. Unfortunately, on this particular Friday, Bellany wasn't going to get the regular solitude he always experienced.

On this Friday, four minutes within eating his lunch, he hears footsteps approaching his vicinity. Usually, that shouldn't mean much to people but to Bellamy, it was something as throughout his days eating at this hall people barely visit or go to his area as they mainly sit near the two large doors of the exit or in center of the hall. Knowing that someone was approaching he tilted his head down to avoid the attention that he may get. In efforts of his actions, Bellamy fails as he hears a noticeable thump come from the direction in front of him. This interaction that was about to shortly commenced was unexpected for him. For the first time at lunch, somebody approached him.

This put him in a bad place, he thought of leaving now. His beautiful day was ruined. There was no reason to stay in the Great Hall anymore until in mid-thought he heard the person in front of him speak.

"Hey Bellamy"

With such warmth to those words, he recognized vaguely. This particular voice was extremely noticeable as it was recent. He couldn't remember the girl's name but he definitely remembered her voice and her appearance. He vividly remembered seeing this girl at the lake. Her hair was as brown as brown mahogany wood and peering just a tiny bit he could still see that her red sweater was still vivid as ever as. Meeting this girl was actually kind of pleasant for him as he thought she was a cool person, though she had her quirks. For one she was a little irritating to deal with as she'd come out of nowhere ready to talk. Second, this girl was a Gryffindor, people in that house were pretty boisterous individuals and Sabrina was no exception. Bellamy just hoped she didn't know this particular girl he had in mind, that girl was too crazy for him to handle. After seconds go by, lifting his head he sees her. Resting her head on the plam of her hand, staring intently into him with such delight in her eyes as if they just talked yesterday or as if they knew each other for a long time. As he looked at her, she spoke again with radiance like of the sun.

"How are you today?"

Feeling the welcoming tone of this girl was nice. Her presence for today wasn't a nuisance for him. Today he was gonna let this slide as he was okay with this. And so he responds in a lighter tone than usual.

"I'm good. How was your day so far?"

 Her head tilted to the side as she eyed the boy in front of her. He was definitely taking his time to respond to her, but she decided not to push that too much. She shrugged her left shoulder once in response to his question, "It's going, I guess. Do you mind if I eat with you?" She asked, but by then she already felt comfortable enough to grab one of the shiny plates and pull it towards her, running her index finger along the edge of the disc. She glanced from Bellamy to the food, then went ahead and grabbed herself a cranberry muffin.

 She didn't eat much aside from dinner, as her appetite was close to non-existent. That could probably explain why she was so thin, but she always insisted that she ate enough. And she did! She had a cup of juice and a few pieces of fruit for breakfast usually, then a few things at lunch, and at dinner she oftentimes ate a whole horse's weight in food. Her Gryffindor friends always commented on how she ate so much whenever they walk back to their dormitories after supper, and it always happened to make Sabrina laugh at least a little bit.

 She peeled away the thin paper that held the muffin together, picking off a piece of the muffin with her fingers. She popped it into her mouth, and only then did she look back up at Bellamy. "Have you done anything fun recently? Gone down to the festival or something?" She asked curiously. She personally had fully indulged in a good amount of festival activities, and she planned on going to more. There was the Blossom Ball at the end of the month, and the bonfire before then. Excitement flooded through her at the thought of the bonfire. She used to love campfires with her parents, what would this be like?

 She hoped that Bellamy planned on going, because the more people she could hang out with there, the better. Plus, she knew that Eris would probably be distracted by just about anything, and she didn't really know for sure what Rhea would be up to then, but if she couldn't spend the time with them, then Bellamy was a good third. As for Reid - her best friend by far - she wasn't even sure if he was going to be going or anything. She hadn't heard from him in a while, and it made her wonder if she should go looking for him sometime soon. She never noticed how much she missed him until she thought about it.

 It took her a moment, but she snapped out of those thoughts, focusing on the only person that was really there in that moment - Bellamy. He was nice, and she enjoyed speaking with him, so he was definitely worth her attention, was he not? 

 The girl's expression was inviting. The boy wasn't objected to her being here as she was a pleasant person, though annoying and came off demanding the girl was pleasant. Waving his left hand casually in the suggestion of acceptance to the request Bellamy responds to her, "Umm... no not really go ahead and eat." As he said those words, he noticed that she was actually going to eat at this table regardless of his opinion as she reaches over at one of the platters picking up a muffin with red speckles on it; most likely cranberries, plucking bits and pieces off of the muffin like if it were a grape instead of eating it like if it were an apple, consuming it with delight. 

As she did this Bellamy was a little ticked off by this as this suggested that she intending to sit here.  Still a little irritated by her behavior, he still also lets this go as he didn't want to hurt this girl's feeling, yet so he lets off this subtle sigh to release the quick tension, "hhhhh." The boy continued on from there, eating his food while she sat opposite from him.  He wondered why she was here what were her intentions of being here as this girl appeared like she'd have friends considering how friendly she was to him he could surmise that this girl should have quite a bit of friends by now. Making friends for anyone who was this talkative as her was pretty easy. The girl had a cute smile and positive attitude toward people, that was something socially expected of people to have or at least something close to that.  Swiveling his head from one to place another Bellamy alternates his sight from his plate of food to her face to the walls of the hall to anywhere else he can shift his focus to, Bellamy impatiently tapping his foot bellow he glances at her while she eats her muffin slowly, peeling away the liner from the dainty muffin. 

About to burst Bellamy was about to make a  full-blown investigation on this girl until she asks another question. Listening to the question attentively, Bellamy had an idea of what she was getting at and so in response, he places down his utensils furthermore genuinely answers her question to see her response, "Mmm, If you consider walking outside fun then no and no again, I haven't gone done to the festival at all. I've actually been avoiding it." This response was sure to get an interesting reaction from her.
