Ian felt a 'little' guilty for his statement to AJ and Adi. Why did it matter to him that they were close together? Isn't that what friends did? Be silly when they could. Of course she was a girl, but what did that matter? Ian sank a little into a mood. It was weird, and he wasn't particularly fond of it. It seemed things had changed for him when AJ had mentioned his strong arms in the candy shop. She didn't mean anything by it, but it had made him feel good. He kind of liked that. He didn't like this feeling. Especially since it involved his buddy Adi.

AJ started talking about unicorn rides and Ian almost felt bad for Adi. Here he was promising the world (or at least a unicorn farm) to AJ and Ian knew that wasn't going to happen. The wizarding world would NEVER stand for a unicorn farm. How do you hide a blooming unicorn farm from muggles? Of course muggles as a lot were blind as bats when it came to magical things, but still. That really was flaunting it. THEN AJ mentioned charging more for boys for unicorn rides. Not that HE wanted to ride a unicorn. That would be silly. If you want to ride something, ride a thestral, that was cool. Not any silly unicorns.

Ian looked out the carriage, but didn't see Angel. He wondered what happened to her and how that made Benny feel.
