For a moment it was like they were back in first year again, she was just sitting there talking to one of her first friends, before her life had left turned and dove off a cliff.
Her purple eyes went wide as he spoke and she sat up straighter, “Really? You are moving back? Where are you going? What are you going to do?” The questions came at him in rapid fire succession, fueled with hope that perhaps one of her friends was coming back.. Not many people came back.. “Your Little sister? Is she here? ” She asked as she looked around, and thankfully missed his eye narrowing, last thing she needed was a spiral right now..
How had she been? That was a loaded question, but.. she wanted to answer it as best as she could. “I’ve been good.” She said as she adjusted her hair with her left hand and the sun caught the diamond in the ring on her third finger. “So much has happened, I don’t even know where to start, but I dropped out of school, moved to Paris, got a job in an Orchestra playing piano.. and... ”
Heh.. here come the big one..
“I got married about a month ago.” Technically it had been five months, but no on really knew that, just her and Chris.
"I live in Canterbury now," he responded with a shrug, not really sure if Azura actually knew where that was. It was only an hour and a half outside of London by car, which seemed like nothing to him. He was used to travelling for about two hours by any form of muggle transport to get places. "I'm starting a philosophy and film degree... it's at a muggle university."
It was probably important to add that bit.
Film wasn't really a subject offered at the magical universities as far as his knowledge went, but Az didn't know that he wasn't pursuing a career within the world of magic.
"Yep, she's buying ice cream at the moment," he tilted his head to the side as he thought.
"She takes a while to choose because she can't make up her mind." "Congratulations!" he grinned at her getting a place in the orchestra, even if he was slightly disappointed she dropped out. She would have gotten amazing scores, especially because she had always helped Jasper out when he didn't get things.
Married? Jasper tilted his head to the side in confusion. But... they were 17? Was that a normal thing?
Now he was wondering how he was going to get rid of his sister before she even came close. She didn't need ideas of marriage floating around in her head.
How did someone even get married that young? He'd never even thought of getting married before, like 24? 25? At some point when he had finished his degree and had a stable job and could support himself without help. Beyond that, his girlfriend had agreed with that sentiment. She did have to survive finding out he was a wizard first though.
"Huh."
And there goes the award for the lamest answer ever when someone told you they married. He immediately kicked himself back into functioning so that Az wouldn't think that he was judging her, or opposed to this sudden revelation.
"Sorry, I'm just surprised... I've just never thought of marriage. Congrats though," he finished with a smile.
