She looked thoughtful, "You would have no one to share the experience with..No one to get excited with, or ever doing random things with." She smiled a bit, holding up the balls in her hands. "Like juggling balls while looking at the Eiffel Tower." She loved Paris, she wanted to go there one day. "Or Dance in the shadow of the Leaning tower of Pisa."
"Yes I do! I shall keep that in mind from now on." She winked at him. "It's kinda fun having a crazy American around." She laughed a little at his joke. "Not closed, just.. not looking around I guess. Focused.. I suppose." She said with a slight shrug.
She giggled at his next statement. "Little old you huh?" She asked arching a perfect brow. She came up to his chest, if that. "Yes, perhaps I am worried." She said loftily. She was a girl, they worried. And she felt a strange attachment to this American boy. "Good! I am glad to hear that." The relief in her voice was plain to hear.
Alex blinked a little as he spoke, she couldn't tell if he was being serious or not. She eyed his pinky as he held it up and she smiled. "That is a perfectly fine little finger, I think it would be lonesome if it were some how to become detached from you." She looked up at him, her eyes wide with fake sadness. "You..You wouldn't do that to it would you? Break it's heart?" She asked him, fighting back laughter.
Her laughter stopped though as she felt his hand on her head, She blinked a bit, the blush returning. She wasn't used to boys patting her head, and she felt a bit like a Kitten, having it's ears scratched. She fought an irrational urge to purr at him, as he spoke. "Yes, I am okay." She said with a smile, "And I will do that." She said smiling up at him.
Chris nodded in agreement as she spoke. "Well, maybe someday we shall have to take a trip to Paris! And by then, you will know how to juggle and we can juggle together!" he said with a wide grin. "Dance in the shadow? Aren't you afraid that one day its going to fall down?" he asked with a laugh.
He laughed. So, he was going to get the crazy American label after all... but it was in a way that he liked. He nodded in understanding as she talked about her eyes. "It happens... met my best friend that way," he said with a grin.
"Very little... itty bitty to be exact," he said, laughing loudly. "Have to see me with a microscope!" It was so easy to joke around with her... and about the most random things too. If this was what Hogwarts was going to be like, he knew he was in for a good semester. And, that his sister would be in good hands as well. He quieted his laughter as she admitted she was worried about him. "I promise, nothing too dangerous," he said with a grin, holding up a hand as if swearing an oath. "I shall run the ideas by you first for critique," he added with a grin.
"Well, since you like it so much, I'll make sure to send it to you if I cut it off!" he joked. "I'm just kidding... I wouldn't want to break its..." he gave her a look that seemed as if he were questioning her sanity. "Heart." He gave up fighting and laughed at their conversation.
Glancing down, Chris thought he saw a blush. Why would she do that? Its not like he was doing anything overly affectionate... then, he realized his hand was still on her head and he quickly removed it. "Sorry, just being thorough," he said with a gentle shrug. "When my sister hits her head once and she had me check the entire scalp to make sure there were no bumps," he explained. "At least, when she was younger!" He smiled slightly as she promised to owl him. "I look forward to it," he said quietly.
