"Zacharias!" Sally smiled in reply. Of all her former housemates, Zacharias was probably the one she was most comfortable with. Even though the members of the Hufflepuff house were open and friendly as a whole, Sally-Anne often found herself on the outside of the core group of their year. This was likely more her fault than any of theirs, her opinions rubbing people the wrong way from time to time. What she liked the most about Zacharias was that he too, spoke his mind, even if the response was not always favorable.
"You couldn't have shown up a better time. I hate walking into parties alone." Sally had contemplated knocking on Justin's door before she left to see if he wanted to go together, but decided that wasn't appropriate.
"Look at this place," Sally couldn't help but comment as they waited for the door to open. "It makes my mother's house look mediocre. And makes my flat look like a hostel."
