She'd meant to send out letters inquiring about internship or odd job opportunities over school holidays, but had ended up just daydreaming. Green lawns, steam curling over hot coffee on a balcony, coming home to eat dinner and make sure all of her ducks were in order. Red hair times infinity, sunscreen bills out the wazoo. Usually she quashed these thoughts, saved them for when she was on the brink of sleep and wanted nice dreams. At fifteen, she needed to be focused on her career. She shifted in her seat, looking down at the stack of newsprint she'd ignored for an hour.
Dinner would probably be over soon, but maybe nobody would bother her? There were only a handful of people she actually wanted to see. Friends she wanted to see if she still had. Ash was passing through the common room on her way to the dorms(she was a little tired and wanted to go to bed early) when she spotted a familiar figure sitting at one of the tables. "Eden?" Up until recently, she had figured her friend was dead or missing somehow, what with never writing and all(for the record, that was upsetting). It had been a while. And she still worried that things wouldn't be the same, or Eden wouldn't like her, or she wouldn't like Eden, or... or something. Maybe Eden would randomly disappear again. Who knew, really. But Ash wouldn't avoid a friend. She found a blanket for herself and sat down at Eden's table. "Is that enough for you to eat?" Ash could still get her food, even if she didn't want to eat in the great hall. "I was just going to bed, getting my potions and books and everything, but then I saw you so then I didn't." She shrugged. "I figured I'd say hi." Seeing as they were friends(If they weren't, she certainly hadn't been owled about it), and that's kind of what friends did. Besides making sure everyone had food. Really, was that enough? It looked more like a snack than a proper meal. |
