"No worries, Forrest." She forgave him, see? Not that there was any reason for him to apologize in the first place. She was still smiling too cause Forrest and he was adorable.
Was Forrest, little Forrest, checking her out? Ella watched with an amused expression, raising her eyebrows slightly when his eyes returned to her face. Welp. "Yeah, not as much as I should but it's a good way to clear your head." Plus the whole 'being healthy' thing was a resolution so yeah. Her expression changed from amused to worried as the younger badger said he was alright. "Just alright? Not great or brilliant or excellent?" What's up with that, kid? Did Ella need to write someone an angry letter? Oh, he was missing the family. She understood that. "I miss my family too. Lots, actually. Letters are helpful, though." And hugs from housemates. That too.
"Mine was pretty good, thanks for asking." Grin.
Forrest grinned back. She was Ella for a reason. She forgave easily but cleverly. Seriously, why wasn't she in Ravenclaw? Right. Because they were arrogant and unfriendly. She was the opposite of those. He liked her in Hufflepuff a lot.
He didn't understand her amused expression and instead focused on her words.
"Does it help Quidditch?" he asked in a serious tone, because if it did, he was starting running like right now. She said he had been alright on the pitch, and he didn't want to miss that status.
He recognised 'worried' though, because he had seen it various times on his parents' faces in the past.
"You do?" HEY! He wasn't a sissy then, maybe! She was a female so she ought to be emotional alright, but... she was also Captain! He smiled faintly.
"I wish I could phone them," he said longingly. He didn't explain 'phone', because she was a muggleborn.
"I mean, people wrote letters an era ago?" He hadn't even learnt how to write letters but here, he became a pro on it. Magic was so overrated sometimes.
"Did you stay here?" With Alec, perhaps?
