Al hadn't meant to run into Pucey. Not at all. In fact, she was supposed to meet Lee for a drink, but at the last minute she'd gotten an owl that he was going to be busy that night... probably something to do with the new bird he seemed to be shagging at every possible moment even though none of them had any idea who she was other than the fact that George had supposedly seen them from a distance snogging in Diagon one day outside the WWW.
So she decided to go anyway, it was possible that one of her mates would show up.
She pulled up a stool and ordered a witches brew and then her eyes went over the crowd and she immediately looked away.
