As the party made their way to where the Malfoys the next morning before their trip to Peverell Hall, they passed a handsome gentleman who stepped to the side to give them passage. His looks were similar to Captain Potter’s, dark hair and bright green eyes, and as they passed he gave Pansy a once-over that nearly bordered on improper. Since she had been at the Burrow, she had been much out-of-doors and knew that her looks had improved, a brightness returned to her brown eyes and a bloom to her cheeks. Even Captain Longbottom looked from the man to Pansy, pausing for a moment as he looked at her. Pansy’s heart stopped, wondering if he finally saw in her the witch he had once loved.
