He pulled the mask up to his forehead and looked at Aurora. “Sure, as long as it doesn’t have glitters…or anything shiny.” he said pointing at it. He looked at her again trying to read her mind. He can if he wanted to, but Mordred thought that it will be better if it was Aurora who will tell him what’s bothering her. He did miss out on a lot of things. Looking away, he asked – “Will you be okay?” Stupid question. How can she be okay? The boy mentally slapped himself. “I mean, I haven’t seen you for a long time, and I honestly don’t know what’s up with you anymore.” Mordred said feeling a little ashamed of himself. He once blamed Chloe, his old best friend of abandoning him, and he felt that he did the same thing to Aurora. “I’m such a hypocrite fake.”
He knew something else was bothering her. She wouldn’t cry just because somebody punched someone. “Let’s catch up soon. I believe you had a far more interesting year than I did.” True. He just spent his time in the Room of Requirements, mastering his DADA book from cover to cover.
Aurora thought...
"Maybe dark green with black ribbons and silver details around the edges..." she said,
"What do you want your superhero name to be?" she could make him a cape too...
Aurora took a deep breath,
"I- I think so... I mean... there's a lot going on right now." Kryspin... "I just need... I don't know. I just need to eat right now." she piled her plate up, once it was full she realised she wasn't even that hungry. She began to pick at it, taking small mouth-fulls whilst thinking about the stuff that had happened this year.
She nodded,
"Mmm, we should talk more. Catch up on the train? I don't think I can talk about stuff in such a public place..." she glanced around at all the other students.
Especially when I've been drawing such attention to myself... she thought. Maybe talking about stuff would help...
"I don't know about interesting... but a lot happened." she replied, brushing the tears from her eyes.

I'd more be worried about Aaron and how Iris is taking this all," Isabelle said quietly to the girl, taking a sip of water to try to help her not faint again.
Aurora nodded,
"Yeah..." she was suddenly a little shy... this girl was a couple of years older than her and probably knew Aaron and Iris a lot better.
"I just hope they're okay..." She was beginning to feel sorry for Jimbo, maybe he had his reasons, he just didn't act on them very well...
