He glanced back at the little jarful of fire and caught a glimpse of Eliza out of the corner of his eye. She looked a little scared. "Eliza.." he called over to her, suddenly feeling like a protective older brother or something. "Come sit over here," he said, gesturing to a space near them. Hopefully they wouldn't have to sit out here too long, but they could make the most of it while they did. And one of the prefects would be getting Professor V, right? He would surely know what to do... There she sat, arms wrapped around her knees, huddled by the firelight in the jar and waiting for answers. She was getting drowsy despite all of the excitement. It had been a long day and she hadn't even had a chance to rest yet before this happened. Her eyelids drooped a bit, but she forced them open again. As she looked across the light of the fire, she saw Ethan and heard him call to her. I can sit by him? she thought happily. She must not have been too much of a bore earlier if he was going to continue being nice to her. She was really grateful for it, and got up with her bag to sit in the empty spot near him.
Once she was settled in, she turned to him and said, "Thanks, Ethan." She smiled up at him and tried not to be too troubled by the whole situation. She was though, notoriously curious, no matter how sleepy she was. She yawned and covered her mouth. Sitting here with someone was nice. She was the oldest child in her family so she'd never really had someone to ask questions to, or rely on really. Other than her parents of course, but she didn't like to bother them with most things. She thought Ethan seemed smart so she wanted to get his thoughts on this occurrence. "What do you think happened?" she whispered. She didn't want a bunch of people to hear them, and she knew the other first years were enjoying a campfire song at the moment and she didn't want to scare them. She returned a few vacant smiles to students singing in her direction around the fire, but she did not join in yet. She wasn't so easily distracted. |
