"Who doesn't?" Maine asked, simply. Mangoes were just something that everyone loved, regardless.
But then, Holli turned towards Maine and looked so scared that it was all Maine could to not to crush her to bits. Sitting down next to Holli, she wrapped her arms around her best friend's shoulders and rubbed her back soothingly. "Noone's ever ready to be a mom," she smiled. "It's just life experience. You just have to play it by ear."
Shaking her head vigorously, she promised herself that she'd never let what happened to her happen to Holli. "You'll do fine," she whispered. "It'll all be okay. And I'll always be a patronus away if you need me."
It was the truth, Maine was the kind of person who suck through... Most of the time...
See, subconsciously, Holli knew she was being an idiot, but Maine was doing the right thing by agreeing. Stupid hormones and all.
'Quarter past twelve?' she asked.
'That's nearly lunch time, right?' It probably was, and if it wasn't, it didn't matter, as she was hungry.
'I don't know if Rupert likes them...' she said slowly, before giggling. She didn't even know why she had giggled, but, hey.
Holli nodded slowly, leaning into Maine and biting her lip to stop her from bursting into tears. She listened to what Maine said, before nodding.
'So we'll learn as we go along?' she asked, looking at her. That made a whole lot of sense, gaining experience as they went, sounded easier than she thought, anyway.
'Thank you,' she smiled, hugging Maine.
'I feel a lot better now.' she said, nodding, her eyes reacquainted with that sparkle.
