After paying for her drink she leaned over to him and whispered softly in reply to his earlier comment. "Honestly so are mine but I'm adopted now and my father is a pureblood but my mother is muggleborn." This she had told him with confidence having not told anyone else here about that so far. Not that she was embarrassed at all cause she wasn't not one bit she loved her parents. It just hadn't ever come up before.
They were at the front now, and it wouldn't do to respond to what she'd said where muggles might hear. Thornton took Professor Flamsteed's warning very seriously. And so he nodded in understanding, silently.
It was nice to know that someone was making sure he didn't mess up too badly. Taking his change, he smiled and went over to get them a table. While he waited for her to join him, he unwrapped the cake and took a small bite. Sweet, but not too sweet. It would likely do.
Sipping his ginger ale, he wondered what the appropriate thing to say was. He didn't want to pry, but she had brought it up and so ignoring it was likely impolite as well...
Bother.
