It unnerved him but made him feel very welcome at the same time. It was strange. It was magical. He wanted to know more about her.

Uh... had he been staring? He looked away a little so that hopefully she wouldn't see him blushing slightly. Feo barked playfully at the girl, nudging her a little.

*Ahem*.

She was awfully sweet. Very sweet. Like candy. "It's very nice to meet you, Emmylou. I noticed that you have an accent yourself. Where are you from?" he asked rather forward than usual. Was that an okay thing to ask?! He had no clue. He didn't want to make a fool out of himself.

Emmylou smiled softly and put her waves behind her ears. The third year Lioness thought that the boy was really sweet or at least he was really sweet for helping her not fall into the lake but that was also her fault because she had almost made the three of them fall in there. "But I feel really bad." Here was Emmy, not only did she want to make people happy but she also felt bad whenever she almost hurt someone and this was of course one of those moments.

The blonde looked at the crup and smiled brightly. She crouched down and pet the little cutie. "Aww, you're adorable, Feo." Emmy smiled and pet him some more.

Emmylou was surprised that Simon had asked that. She had been in Hogwarts since September and no one had asked her what kind of accent she had, they would just rub it off and give a weird look like she was from another planet. "I'm from Alabama." she beamed.
