"Although it might be insult to injury, seeing as they both already lost to a Hufflepuff," she added, pointing a finger Steve's way with a smug little wink. "Salt in the wound and all that.

Gwen was pretty sure that when Steve was appointed Head Boy, Charles and Erik were the only two people in the school who were surprised. She'd tried to not be too amused by their disappointment, she really, really had.
"But seriously, though," she began again, turning toward him and reaching to touch his arm. "You ought to come out to London during the holiday. We're only up in Hampstead, so I wouldn't even have to floo. We could make a day of it."
Even if Bucky would be there with him, it made her sad to think of them knocking about the castle alone at Christmastime.
