Victor? What an unfortunate middle name. Presley wisely kept that thought to herself.
"It's nice to meet you, Philip," she said instead.
"How are you exams going?" A random shiver worked through Presley and she folded her arms to keep warmer. Why was she cold? It was almost June for Merlin's sake! But Presley was Presley, which meant she'd probably always be cold. She was however, amazed to find herself in a pleasant encounter with an older student. All of her other experiences with people older than fourth year seemed to be arguments. Finlay, Treyen, Eino, she'd infuriated pretty much every older student she'd ever spoken to. Except for the one time she'd almost been sick and Fallon had offered her help...but that had been about three seconds long. Presley pulled two soda's out of her bag, and offered one to Philip.
"You want some soda?" She held the cold can toward him. It was a muggle drink, but that was no reason he shouldn't know what it was and love it, or want to try and like it.
