"You were loads better than I thought you'd be considering you hadn't flown before the start of term." And she smiled a little at this, feeling happy about the way Tobias had helped Forrest out on the pitch. Those two were genuinely nice kids and she was really glad they were friends. As for him agreeing with her, she simply nodded. The blonde wanted him to decide for himself so the less talking she did, the better.

Because Ella wasn't talking, she settled on braiding her hair quietly while the younger badger thought over what she'd said. She occasionally glanced over at him, hoping for some kind of tell that she had helped him out in some small way. He just looked plain sad, though, which was unfortunate.

Wait, WHAT? Ella forgot all about braiding and focused on Forrest, not believing what she was hearing. He actually wanted to play now? That was amazing! Just...she was really happy about this. "You're going to have fun, okay? This team is a family so...welcome." And she smiled a little, nudging him gently in the arm.

Forrest daren't ask whether she would keep this between them, but he trusted her. He looked at her slightly in shock when she said he was alright. That lifted his spirits a little, because she wasn't lying too, and it showed on his face. Life was good when you had cool friends you could count on. He didn't know about her, but she was definitely his friend. Though, his mother would have argued that if she fought so much, she valued him. And mothers always knew things correctly. Hmm.

...

He smiled a little, but then his smile spread across his whole face. He nodded again, and on an impulse, hugged her: a big, squishy hug.

"Thanks Ella, for the...support." He pulled back. See the happiness on his face? All Ella's work. "I'm sorry. I love you." He smiled timidly, daring to look into her eyes this time. "I...I should go now." Because although they were good--they were, right?!--he still needed some time to collect himself. Waving at her, he made his way to the boys' dormitories.
