Twirling her hair, she looked around the hall.. it was great and everything but she really needed sleeeeep!
Yawning, she spotted Thomas tlaking to another Gryffindor. She continued stroking Henry, feeding him a few treats from her pockets.
She turned back to the boy and waved. Then she shouted over, 'Hi! I'm Ella, I can tell we're going to be the best of friends!' Nobody even looked up, they were used to her already. Satisfied, she sat back down. She didn't even wait for a reply, he could give one if he wanted. She was feeling friendly now. Matt started at the sudden yell, arms flailing wildly. Thankfully, his drink was at a safe distance - his sleeve was still damp. Once he'd recovered from the initial shock, he swallowed the food that'd sat on his tongue, and he looked up, searching for the source of the noise. Then his dark gaze fell back on AHH, who had now revealed herself as Ella. Although, he preferred AHH - it suited her more. He grinned slightly, red blush as apparent as ever, and shrunk down in his seat.
Best of friends. BEST OF FRIENDS. No.
1) She was a girl. 2) She was a girl. And 3)SHE WAS A GIRL. A GIRL WHO WAS SCARY. He sniffed, the terror seeping back into his gut.
But he was not rude. His parents had often drummed the delicate tangents of manners into him and, as much as he wanted to, he couldn't exactly ignore her.
Mustering up all the courage he could, Matt shouted back, "I'm M-Matt." There. End of. Quivering, he sat back down in his seat. Quote:

He turned to face the girl, a small smile on his face. Be polite. "Pretty name." He hoped his smile was ok, although it was highly probable that it'd turned out as more of a grimace. AHH. ANOTHER ONE. They were like rabbits... "Nice t-t'meet you." he said to them both. Clearing his throat, he continued. "I'm Matt." Quote:

A wide grin spread over her face, lightening up her features. 'Merlin's beard! You can cook? That's unbelievable.' Ari gasped, in admiration. 'Then, by all means, help me, anyone should be more authorised than my mum to give lessons in that department.' she chuckled. 'Three siblings, cool. Which of them do you get along better with?' she was curious to know. And then the innocent question, but which had a deeper meaning for Ari. Why didn't she ask her parents for a sibling? Well, because 'her parents' only included her mum. However, it made no sense to start narrating her family drama to a boy she had just met, so after a rather long pause she replied sheepishly: 'Oh, yes, I should do that, shouldn't I?' 'Tired?' Ariadne asked Matt, hoping he wouldn't consider this an intrusion of his privacy, comfort zone, or whatever. 'Yeah, I wish I were there as well, but I'm sure exciting things will happen during our time at school too.' she commented.She returned Matt's smile, hoping they could become friends. Matt frowned, "No. Probably not." He grinned, and laughed too. He felt...not as scared, he supposed. It was nice to feel a little comfortable. There was an air about Ari; she wasn't as scary as other girls were. Perhaps it was her polite and rather mature nature; it reminded him of his sister. She was lightyears ahead of her age too. In fact, if he hadn't known any better, he would've thought of Ari as Karen's long lost twin.
He nodded, brown hair flopping. "I sort of had to learn, or I'd have been living off cheese and crackers for the rest of my life." He grimaced; that would've been awful. He chuckled - he completely understood. "Tell me about it. I had to watch hours of cooking shows..." He'd have much rather been watching The Simpsons. Marge was good at cooking, right? "Well, let me know, yeah?" he said, rather excited about the prospect of teaching someone his skillage. (He deftly ignored her female-ness. He could fret over that later.) "My sister. My brothers are away a lot of the time, travelling. Her name's Karen - she's nine." He smiled; he'd miss her, and his parents.
Oh dear... Her silence screamed against his ears. He could feel his nervous heart-rate quickening again. He squashed it desperately, quickly groping for an apology. He didn't know what he'd done...What'd he said? AHH. GIRLS WERE SO CONFUSING. "I'm sorry." he said hastily, his words tripping over each other in a wild frenzy. He'd never been too good at awkward social situations.
The Gryffindor, still flailing anxiously, tipped his head. "Definitely." He yawned, as if in response. He hoped he could return to the dorms soon for some much needed sleep. "I hope so." he said with a small smile.
