"Ow! What the bloody hell was that?" Cedric exclaimed rather loudly as he rubbed the back of his head.

Gwen was confused. "What happened?" Gwen asked, looking around the pub. Cedric shrugged, still violently rubbing his head. "I don't know. Something just hit me in the head." 

Gwen looked at the floor and spotted something glistening under the table. She quickly grabbed it, noticing that it was actually a teaspoon.

Gwen sat back in her seat and showed the utensil to the boy.

"I guess you've got hit by this, but it could have been worse," Gwen said dropping it on the oak table.

Cedric raised his eyebrows and Gwen gave him a weak smile and continued. "It could have been a tablespoon instead." Cedric started laughing while Gwen reached out to touch the back of his head.

"There's nothing there. You may wake up with a small bump but you'd hardly have to go to the Hospital Wing because of it. Are you okay?"

"It hurts a little. I mean seriously, it came at me as if it was shot out of a canon."

Gwen rolled her eyes at him. "Come on, don't exaggerate. I think it's best if we leave." Cedric nodded in agreement, still a bit dazed.

"Yeah, that's for the best. Wouldn't want to be hit by a tablespoon, would I?" Cedric said as he stood up and grabbed their stuff.

"Of course not," Gwen replied with a small smirk and followed suit. Cedric offered his hand to her despite the pain and the two made their way out of the pub.

Regardless of being hit on the head by a teaspoon, the date was a success.

The twins and Lee had been waiting for Alicia and Angelina for only a little while, but the three of them had a severe lack of patience.

They decided to empty their bags that they bought from their favourite shop in the world, Zonko's.

So when the two girls returned to the table, they were in for quite the shock. Fred was stuffing a piece of metal into one of Lee's nostril while George took notes. 

"We leave them for five minutes and this happens," Angelina stated to Alicia as she placed two glasses on the little space on the table. She pulled the stick out of Lee's nostril and pushed it into the twin's hand.

Fred and George pouted. "Give it back! We paid for it!" George exclaimed after dropping his stack of parchment on top of the stink pellets.

Fred nodded his head while wiping the end of the stick with a tissue. 

"Yeah! This stick is supposed to make anyone's nose fill with snot." Fred replied, putting the stick back in a bag. Angelina and Alicia shared a look of utter disgust.

"What do you need snot for?" Alicia asked. Fred and George both shared identical grins.

"See we are trying to make our own stink bombs," George started to explain.

"And we thought that one of the ingredients should be snot. You know, since it would give it a greenish colour and help the mixture be stickier so that it would be harder to rub it off." Fred finished.

Angelina grimaced. "I would ask what else is in this mixture, but I'm afraid to find out." 

"Actually-" Lee started but Angelina stopped him. "I said that I don't want to know. Just put everything back into the bags, like now."
