Harry had spent most of the auction itself hiding from Rita Skeeter, and also Andromeda who kept trying to introduce him to her gardener, despite the fact he'd already met the poor man a dozen times and he couldn't be less interested in shagging Harry. Shagging Andromeda, on the other hand, was something the gardener would quite like. He'd finally been able to breathe when he found out Ernie had "won" him, though he didn't think Ernie was any more interested in cauldron bottoms than he was. They'd make the best of it though.
He was just about to find Ernie when he spotted Rita again, and made a quick escape into the garden just before she spotted him in return. The last thing he wanted was to be questioned about his 'relationship' with the 'lucky winner' and have it explode into a full-blown gossip-column romance. So maybe he was still bitter about his supposed affair with Kingsley, even though it had been years ago. Rita never changed.
The quiet, It's too hot in there caught his attention, and he found himself agreeing without much thought. "Much nicer out here."
