She knew some little kids lost their pets, heaven forbid that should happen with Aleneil!!
"I'm going to be starting my fourth year," Lily-Beth replied with a grin. "What year are you in?" she asked. She could never tell with guys, they were either older or younger, but her guesses were never right.
Alex grinned at the cat which was called Aleneil apparently and gently clapped its head. Yes, it didn't scracth him, success!
He looked up at the girl again, a fourth year. So he had been almost right the first time.
"I'll start my third year. What house are you in?" he asked curiously, not that it really mattered but still.
