Lucky for him, grandma Bellaire and his dad gave him money so he had plenty to spend on the train at the food trolley.
"Are you getting candy too?" He asked the small girl standing in front of him in the line. "It's exciting isn't it? Being candy I mean...such a thrill." He felt like a complete rebel actually.
Ariadne was getting restless. The candy line wasn't THAT long, but she was eleven-years-old and standing still just wasn't her thing. She shifted her weight from one foot to the other then fidgeted a bit before getting still again. After all that, somebody else joined the line and started up a conversation! This was bound to be better than just standing there!
"Yeah, I am," she said, looking from the boy to the trolley then back again.
"I want some chocolate frogs! And some Jelly Slugs!" Those were good, too. Ariadne wanted EVERYTHING, but she was too little to eat everything, and even her mom and dad weren't made of money. She had probably enough money to get enough for the trip and then a little to save for school. That was all.
She nodded.
"I've been looking forward to the trolley sweets since I got my letter. It's one of the things I'm excited about the most! That...and my sorting and my first look at the inside of the castle!" she continued. She was just like a little ball of excitement just rolling around and waiting to BURST.
"Are you a first year, too?" Because he looked like he was sort of her age.
