But then, a lot of the Staff at the school were friendly. "Nice to meet you too!" Taking the book, she smiled. "Thanks, Mr. Kitridge." Eagerly she started flipping through the pages, wanting to see how long it was and how many pictures there were. Surely, a librarian would be happy to see a student who was interested in reading, and Lux sure loved to read.
Oh, that sucked. It would have been cool if he had snow senses.
But now that he mentioned it, the birds had stopped singing. "I do not like the cold, but I like playing in the snow. Snowball fights are really fun. Oooh, you have been to the skating rink before, right?" She was sure she had seen him there, and the Professors and other Staff probably had a blast there! Though she was sure that some of them would not be able to skate now, such as poor Professor Flamsteed who did not look good at all.
Hmm... good question. She thought about it as she leaned back against the tree and looked up at the clouds in the sky. "Well, I like the King Arthur stuff, but I suppose that counts as adventure too... so maybe anything besides romance." Making a face, though she did not think the notion of it was... as unappealing as she used to. "Oh, and I don't really like the scary stuff either. Ghosts scare me." The last sentence was a whisper, because they really did scare her!
Leo felt a teeny tiny stone lift off his shoulders when Lux confirmed that she knew who he was. It would have been right embarrassing if she hadn’t known and he had made no attempt to introduce himself when she did so. Possible embarrassment stayed off Leo relaxed against the trunk with a smile pursing his lips as Lux shared her views on winter.
Nodding Leo reminisced.
"I used to like partaking in snow balls fights just like you do especially when I won over my sisters. I liked making snow angles too. Winter is a fun month but yes I agree I could do without the cold too." Brr. He needed to talk to the house elves about heating for the library and also with the caretaker.
Focusing on Lux again realizing that his thoughts had drifted away Leo asked furrowing his brows slightly in curiosity
"Why don’t you like romance novels?" He had noted Lux’s grimace. The last revelation made Leo a little surprised but he could see that Lux meant it and he sympathized with her.
"Do all ghosts scare you, even your house ghost?" he asked quietly trying to understand.
