The sun was high in the sky and Steven was for some reason found himself in the middle of the school grounds. This was not his territory seeing as he was the caretaker, he stuck to the corridors while the grounds man wondered by the lake and through the forest.
Steven never went to the staff table for food, in his eyes he was not staff but just the cleaner, so instead he always went down to the kitchen feeling much more at home with the house elves, and on many occasions he convinced them to let him help them out. Today was one of those days.
He had eaten his own fair share of food and so offered to help clean up the dishes and bowls from the students meals. So with rolled up sleeves and bubbles in his hair Steven carried a collection of dishes across the kitchen only to stop in his tracks when he came face to face with another person. The stack of dishes began to sway dangerously and with wide eyes full of horror Steven watched as the top dish slipped and fell to the floor.
