Sometimes it was lucky Lola had lost her ability to read minds when she showed up at Hogwarts. Jaime's thought about her and butter would have caused her to blush something fierce, and been completely lost for words. Now she remained blissfully unaware.
"Oh yeah?" She tilted her head, looking slightly amused. "Interesting in a good way or a bad way?"
The news on the scarab, the angel took with apparent calm, nodding once. "Small favours." His hand was squeezed again, silently comforting.
Lola nodded. "Oh yeah, the room should be just how you left it." A room had been waiting for her when she got back from popcornhood, after all, and she'd been out of Hogwarts for a whole lot longer than Jaime, that time. Weird how the Houses appeared to have unlimited dorms... Considering how many people lived alone in a room, shouldn't they be running out of space soon?
There was not a lot of time to ponder this strange phenomenon, because soon they reached his door, and Lola stopped, turning towards him. Before she could help herself, she had put her arms around him and given him another hug, less enthusiastic than her first but containing no less warmth. Her cheek rested against his shoulder. "I'm really glad you're back, Jaime," she told him in a quiet murmur, before pulling back and gazing up at him, a pleased smile on her face. "There. All done cheering now, I promise."
