Brain freeze. The only downside to ice cream.
"At least you think it's good though, right?" he said with a little laugh.
He then smiled as she questioned his judgement. "It takes a lot more than some slaps, a few fights, and a few rash choices to make you a bad person." he said. "You've changed a lot in the past two years. And I'm sure a lot of it is for the better. I mean look at us talking again. You'll have to admit that that wouldn't have happened a few terms ago."
He inwardly chuckled at her change in topic.
"Oh... my summer was long... as always. Anya got her first crush and pretty much demanded that I take her to see the boy all the time - she thinks mum and dad are embarrassing now. As a result... I only got to go to Diagon Alley twice. Once for fun and then once for all my school supplies. I did get to see Caroline there though. That was nice. She was busy all summer. She went to New York for a few months and then had a wedding." he said. He was about to say that she had invited him to it, but now was probably not the time for him to talk about his relationship considering Marie's had just ended.
"So... unless you count Anya growing up as 'anything exciting' then it was a pretty boring summer."
He was about to ask how her summer was and then stopped with his mouth wide open. He quickly closed it. He didn't want to bring up potentially bad memories for her.
He distracted himself with a bit of ice cream hoping she hadn't noticed what he was about to ask her.
"This is nice." he said suddenly. "I'm not going to lie - I missed talking with you." he said. "Plus, it was a lot of fun getting to know you the first time around, I'm sure the second time around will be even better." he added with a smile.
Then he occupied himself with taking another bite of cheesecake and ice cream.
Why didn't he sneak out at midnight more often? Cheesecake definitely was meant as a midnight food.
"Oh please, I never slap anyone. I prefer a good punch." Carter should know this. He had felt a punch or two from her in the past. He should consider himself lucky she stayed away from his face though.
"Yeah, I have changed a lot. I've grown and... matured a lot since we were together." A lot.
"You know, it wasn't because of me that we didn't talk. I tried..." Merlin knows she tried, only to be shut out every time. But that was in the past. Now they were talking and working on being friends again.
Awww, little Anya has a crush.
"I can't believe Anya's old enough to have a crush." The last time Marie had seen his sister she was just a little thing.
"So does she know yet that you're a wizard?" She couldn't imagine trying to hide something like that from a sibling... not that she had any siblings.
Hearing him say it was nice to see Caroline she raised an eyebrow at him.
"Caroline? As in the crazy girl who wears a lion on her head?" Why would anyone think it was nice to see her? That girl was just weird.
"Sounds like I had a more exciting summer than you." For once. Yep. She had gone to Australia to visit Mia and Sweden to visit Matty... a couple of times. Not to mention the time she had spent with Finn, before they started to argue.
He missed talking to her? Then why did he go so long ignoring her?
"Yeah, we had a lot of fun back then." She said remembering all the good time her and Carter had.
"You think we'll ever be like that again? I mean having good times like that." She did miss the fun times that the slytherdor pair use to have.
