Oh, Erin. Why'd you have to condemn the girl's sense of fashion? Getting rid of the pout and swapping it for a grin with matching knotted eyebrows, the Ravenclaw eyed her best friend. "Really? Well..I always knew dresses didn't come too well with sneakers but Erin, you know me..I don't like being too girly and all." Maybe that would change as time goes by. Hopefully. "Though I sometimes envy your fashion sense. You always look good." Yup, even in those simple jeans she was wearing. SMIRK.
OH. Errr...those days, huh? "Yes, Tina." Beezus muttered when Erin mentioned her sister. Of course she knew the girl. Nod, nod. "I see.. I'm glad really. I think Elise is nice." For the few times they had accompanied each other, well, she enjoyed it. "What happened to her anyway? What do you mean she doesn't have anywhere to go to?" Didn't she have a house? "Did she ran away from home?"
MERLIN'SPANTS! When did that happen? Beezus stopped on her tracks, unable to say anything as her eyes widened. Erin had a new family? No. Really? "Wait. Wait. Wait. I don't get it. You have a new family? How did you have a new family?" Did her parents abandon her and sent her to an orphanage? But it can't be. Erin's family wasn't like that. They were even close-knitted. "Tell me...what really happened?" on those weeks and months that we haven't turned a hair about each other.
There were times when Erin would just sit and think of similarities between her and Beezus. She always fails of course. Erin likes chocolates A LOT whereas Beezus was allergic to it. Erin loves girly stuffs while Beezus was some kind a simple person. A girl who would wear comfy clothes even if they don't match. Though she would admit, sneakers plus dress worn by Bee looks good on her everytime. The complement from her bestfriend that she always look good in choice of clothes made Erin smile and feel a bit guilty for detesting the other Ravenclaw's fashion statement.
"Thanks, you're too sweet. Do you really like my fashion style? Go to triple W dot Erin Heyman dot com." Giggle. With Beezus, it's all just giggling and being yourself.
She walked on to one corner and invited Beezus to go wear their bowling shoes now. She went on removing her own shoes and replacing it with the shoes the bowling center provided them.
"Yeah. She is nice. But sometimes, I just find her too fragile. Too emotional. Er, but still I consider her as my bestfriend, well apart from you of course." That was the reason of their silent fight before, however since they've already resolved the issue, they could talk about it now, right?
"I can have one, can I? You have your bestie," she mockingly stuck her tongue out towards Beezus. Elise? Ran away from home? Beezus sounded like her mother.
"No, no. Her father was in St. Mungo's and her siblings were in uni so she's got nowhere to go."
Erin knew this would be how Beezus would react. She had this on her mind, way before planning to tell her everything.
"Woah. Calm down," Erin gave in a tiny but surprised smile.
"Uhm, on our second year, do you remember I went back home before Christmas? I was intrigued as to why..." She went back to her bowling shoes and tied the knots. Oh, they were comfy.
