Since the story about Susan's aunt had come out and Suzan Bones left (apparently without even seeking out any particular people to say goodbye and leaving it at those she ran into on the way), Hufflepuff had been nearly silent.

Jake had never been in the common room and not been able to really hear a roar of conversations. That's just how the Hufflepuffs generally were. Most of the time, they were in pretty good moods. Now it seemed like this darkness had just dropped over the entire house. On the rare occassion that someone actually managed to joke or laugh, they seemed to look extremely repentant.

He liked Susan, he felt bad for her and her family, but he couldn't see getting this freaked out. Not yet. This could be a one time act fro ma crazy person.

When he could have sworn he heard someone crying, Jake shoved up off the couch and headed out of the Hufflepuff area. He didn't know where he was going and he really didn't care; but he didn't stop until someone said his name.
