Faust was lost, he couldn't find his common room, He had to carry 5 bags on his sprained arm, Faust felt the pain up his arms, Suddenly He buckled and fell to the floor and hit his sprained arm against the floor. Faust gripped it and started to cry

It had been a rather long week; Professor Rutherford had Girty doing all sorts of random things from cleaning out cupboards to charming a load of quills to be used in a mock-exam he had been planning. However for the first time in weeks Girty Hubbles had some time off to call her own and so not surprising she had been spending it with Alex. The Hufflepuff was making her way down from the Ravenclaw common room when she heard the sound of someone crying.
Her first instinct was to look at the portraits, they had been playing up recently and it would not have surprised her to see one of them slumped in a chair sobbing away to themselves while swigging from a bottle But it one was one of the 2D portraits but a small Ravenclaw, slumped on the floor and he cradled one of his arms.
“Er…” Girty was going to just walk on and pretend she had not seen anything but then the Hufflepuff in her came out and she slowly wondered over towards the small Ravenclaw. “Can I help at all?”

Faust was still crying about his arm, He heard a voice call him but he was in so much pain he didn't notice. Faust held on to one of his bags and stood up.
Faust turned and saw a beautiful girl. "Woah" He said. Faust shakes his head. "Yes could you pick up my other 2 bags as well, A slytherin twisted my arm to the almost point of breaking" Faust smiled at her

The poor Ravenclaw was still in tears and Girty could not help but feel a bit of sympathy for him. She could remember her time as a first year, the castle being so big and scary and getting lost on numerous occasions. With a small smile Girty crouched down near the Ravenclaw and listened to what he had to say, although his small outburst did make the Charms Apprentice giggle although she did not blush, the Hubbles clan did not lack vanity.
“I could do better then just carrying some bags.” With a small smile Girty reached down to her long multi-coloured striped socks and pulled out her wand. Tapping it gently against her cheek she looked at the collection of bags that Faust had. With a small ‘aha’ the Hufflepuff picked up a rucksack and shot the small Ravenclaw a small wink.
“Intercapedo”
Nothing seemed to happen at first but as Girty reached into the bag it she managed to stick her whole arm into it and a wide grin filled her features. Pulling her arm out of the bag Girty started to reach out for Fausts other bags and placing them inside the rucksack. “Now we just need the feather weight spell.” A crease filled Girty’s brow as she focused hard and tapped the bag with her wand trying to make sure that it would work.
“And now it should be as light as a feather!”
This was one of Dan’s little tricks which he had passed down to Girty and every year they did this little spell for all the first year Hufflepuff’s but he was sure that he would not mind him passing it onto a Ravenclaw.

Faust watched as she came close to him. She looked better up close. He couldn't help looking her up and down. He watched as she used the spell. His eyes rose in astonishment.
Faust stood up. "Thank you for that" He stared at the bags "Can you help me find a room please, I am very lost and have already accidently got out the castle" He smiled as he talked. He picked up a bag with his bad arm, He cringed as the pain shot through his arm.

Girty felt very aware that the boy was just watching her and she tried to over come the urge to say some rather witty and rather mean come back, but really there was no need for such things and besides, she was not a Slytherin. At the boys thank you Girty gave him a small nod of the head and stood up with him and she was about to head off down the stairwell back to the Hufflepuff Common room when the boy spoke up again.
Girty froze on the spot and gave it a seconds thought on what he had said before she started to slowly turn on the spot as if dancing to music that only she could hear. After doing a complete circle and she was facing the Ravenclaw again she shrugged her shoulders and gave him a weary smile.
“Well there we have a problem.” The Hufflepuff was finding it hard to keep a straight face. “There are a lot of rooms in Hogwarts, if you want me to help you shall need to give me more help…maybe a name.”
Her straight face broke and a laugh escaped from Girty Hubbles, it echoed around the corridor around them and a few of the portraits on the wall gave a huff of disapproval. One witch in particular was clearly not happy with her as she shot Girty a rather rude hand gesture, which in return the Hufflepuff simply poked out her tongue and shot it a rather cheeky smile. She would have to tell Dan about that rebellious portrait later.

Faust felt that she didn't like to be watched, "I'm sorry for looking at you, it's just you..you...are so pretty" He picked up his bag with his good arm and began walking in the opposite direction.
He turned and looked at her "I need to go to the Headmasters office for something or other." HE turned back and lay slumped against the wall, he gave a deep sigh. Faust turned back to the girl. "Can you do anything to fix my arm please

When Faust started to apologise Girty could not help but smile, it was strangely adorable that a first year thought she was pretty. Alex told her all the time that she was gorgeous and she knew that she was not that bad to look at but this was Girty we are on about and if she was allowed to she would still walk around in mud stained jeans and baggy t-shirts. So it was with a bemused look that she watched the small Ravenclaw walk off…only to stop again.
Girty had to double take what she just heard, he needed to go and see the headmaster about something or other. It was no surprise the poor lad did not know where the headmaster’s office was, heck after five years in the castle the first time Girty knew where the office was when she was dragged there by Dan so they could talk with Darrow about her fluffy tendencies.
“Why do you need to go and see Dan…er…Headmaster Hubbles?” Curiosity had taken over for the Hufflepuff and she looked over at the boy as he rather dramatically leaned against the wall and gave a sigh while still clinging onto his arm. “You really should see Mr Nish about that arm of yours. I would say I would give it a go but last time I tried to fix someone’s arm it kinda went wrong.”
Girty looked around nervously as she thought about the time she had turn that guys arm inside out and there had been a rather a lot of blood, and screaming…that is when Girty knew that being a healer would not be her thing.

He smiled as he thought about something, "I take it you are thinking about healing someone, well don't worry, I ripped someones arm off after healing them it was so bad" He laughed. He held his arm "I can move it" He shook it to show "But it hurts like hell"
Faust stood up using the wall as leverage. "I do know Headmaster HUbbles, Is that a problem, I may have accidentally used a....Well you don't want to know" he faced her "Well can you show me?"
