 Fluttery Pegasi
Professor Tanner's words repeated in her mind, over and over and over again. She was gonna be the most impressive firstie flyer ever. Probably not. But she'll be up there. Oh yes. She'll be up there.
"Alright Charlie," that was her broom's name, see? "You ready?" She thought about her question for a moment and smiled to herself. "Of course you are, you were made for this. Just don't drop me okay?" Not that she thought he would, he was clearly the best broom in the shed. Haddie swung her leg over the broom in an over-excited mimic of how Professor Tanner showed them. "We got this?" she asked the broom, then nodded. "I think we do."
The broom and her were becoming fast friends, she could feel it. And with that, Haddie raised the handle of the broom and pushed off the ground as hard as she could. In an instant she was at least six or seven feet off the ground, her heart beating away in her chest so fast she was noticeably shaking. If it wasn't for the ear-to-ear grin on her face, one might think she was scared. "Whoa..." She patted Charlie's handle. "You're as eager as I am." See how well she and Charlie connected? Angling the handle down, gentle, Haddie brought the broom to just a few feet off the ground as instructed. See, she was listening.
They were hovering!!!
