Mostly I just learned how to control it so I don't like burn down their house or something," she explained a little sadly. "But at least I was still close to my friends there. I could still see them. Now they think I'm at some super snobby boarding school. My parents said if my friends gave them letters, they'd send them to me, but I haven't heard anything from anyone since I got here, so they probably just threw them away..."

It was weird talking about all of this... she hadn't really told it to anyone. She didn't want anyone's pity because of her parents not liking that she was a witch. It was just how it was. She still loved her parents, and they still loved her, this was just a part of who she was that they'd never understand, that they couldn't deal with.

"Anyway..." she continued, her smile returning right to where it should be. "I'm glad you really like it here! Maybe I will learn to love it, too!" Sutton said brightly as she watched him walking backwards. "Where did you go to school before?"

Ouch. That had to smart. "But that sucks. Surely you would have learnt all that here and more." Honestly, her parents had let her get so far behind that she only knew how to control herself? He nodded understandingly at her next words though. "Yeah, I'm sure it kinda took the sting out of it, being able to see your friends." Then a frown crossed his face. "That's not nice of them." It wasn't fair that either her friends had tried to write and her parents hadn't sent the letters, or her friends just hadn't bothered. His mood changed dramatically at hearing this.

Looking up at her, he just had to smile once more. "I hope you will. I've wanted to come here for so long." A satisfied sigh escaped him before he turned back around. "I was at Durmstrang for six years." Now he was waiting for the most basic 'but you don't sound like you're from there. I thought you were English' comment.
