"Ah warmth at last!" Benji exclaimed after walking into the Leaky Cauldron from the drenching rain. Benji and his mother, practically ran towards the fireplace over in the corner. "Mmmm..." Benji said with delight. They went and ordered Butterbeers from the bar and went and sat hunched up around the fire on small seats, gently sipping their butterbeer.
Benji looked around the room, looking at all the odd people. There were Veela's and an odd half-giant which seemed to stand out the most. "Ring, ring." The small bell on the door rangm indicating someone was entering. It was a child about Benji age and hopefully another hogwarts incoming first year!

After his day of looking in forbidden shops and Quidditch stores, Jethro was now drenched wet. Since the rain had been fogging his vision, it had taken the boy a good 15 minutes to find his way to the Leaky Cauldron, and his Grandfather. As the boy emerged into the bar, his dress pants and polo shirt a shade darker, his shook his hair getting specs of water on the dark wooden floor. Jet's blue eyes searched the room before he spotted his Grandfather. Dressed in a fine black overcoat and trousers, with a bowlers hat, the boy pushed past some hags with worts growing over their noses.
" 'Ello there Jethro." the boys elder said as Jethro took a seat, shivering slightly. "Hey Pa. Do you mind if i get a butterbeer before we go?" he asked before taking a glance over to where the fireplace was."Of course, you're mother isn't expecting us home 'till an hour or so." his Grandfather smiled before handing Jethro the money for his drink. Running one of his hands through his wet hair, Jet ordered one butter beer from the barmen, before heading over to the fireplace. Managing to set a spot on the wall, he spotted a boy about his age. Flashing the child a smile, he took a sip of butterbeer. At last, he was warm again.

"Hey is that guys smiling at me?" Ben thought as he looked the kid up and down. He must've got in after so he was drenched. Luckily ben had gotten in before it started pouring. Ben wrapped his legs around the chair legs in order to get warm but it didn't work. He had noticed that when he came in with his mother, she hung up her warm, waterproof jacket up on the hooks. Without thinking he attempted to stand up with his legs around the chair.
'Bang,' the whole room seemed to shake as Ben stood up. His mother started laughing so hard that she started crying. People were pointing and laughing but there was one face that didn't seem to find it funny at all.

Jet's eyes were staring at the golden fire. The smile from his face had faded as the muffled sound of rain hit the roof of the old building. As the orange glow hit his pale face, he could feel his hair drying slightly. Taking another sip of butter beer, he darted his eyes around the place as he heard a crash near by. It was the boy that had been sitting near him, was now fallen with a chair. Chocking slightly on his drink, he placed it on the mantle over the fireplace, before rushing to help to guy up. "Are you alright there, mate?" he questioned offering him a hand up. The smirk that and played on his face moments before had faded into a warm smile as his blue eyes focused on the boy. What had he been doing? (I didn't fully understand what happened to Benji, but i assumed that he fell over with the chair. If I'm wrong just correct me and I'll be happy to mod the post  ) |

( Sorry left that bit out )
'Yeah I'm perfectly fine!' Benji asked as the boy helped him up. 'Benjamin Blue's the name, but call me Benji'. Benji was edging closer and closer to the fire whilst he was hoping This boy didn't notice. He was shaing violently with cold as his mother slung the jacket around him. 'Ahh thanks Mum!' Benji exclaimed happily. 'Are you an incoming first year too?'

(Thats cool we all make mistakes  ) "Awesome..." Jethro said, maybe it was a bit more than 'perfectly fine...' Taking a step back, he watched as the boy now receiving a jacket from his mother. "Benji, nice to meet you. I'm Jethro Stevens, or Jet if you like." he smiled faintly, gee it had been a big day. Taking a quick glance around, Jet had just remembered they were both in a Magical place. "Sure am, and I'm assuming you are 'swell." he reached up and took a sip of butterbeer, before leaning back against the fireplace's outer edge. |
