Kendra's room/Sphinx Common room: Kendra & Mr. Cook & Derrick
Derrick had just been able to break free from his mother and father, who had both had something important and time sensitive to get back to. He was waking - sulking really - back to his room, kicking a pebble in front of him when he heard someone speak directly to him.
It was hard to mistake, impossible really, as meant for someone else. Derrick lifted his eyes to Kendra's, and saw the familiar desperation in her gaze. he grinned and then schooled his features, clearing his throat.
"Yes, hello. Nice to meet you. An honor." He shook hands eagerly with kendra's dad and threw her a wink.
