"Yeah... I hhhad to ssspend ages in the duhh-dorm getting mmmyself doing muhh-magic. It wwwas dead harrd... but I thuhh-think I dddid okay," he added, forcing a smile out. Rather, he hoped he'd done okay.
When Lexi apologised for telling him about her friend, Jake just shrugged it off. "Don't wwworry about it... I knuhh-know what it's lllike to fffall out with your bbbest friend..."
He... still wasn't quite over it.
"Guhh-glad to be going hhhome, then?"
Lexi looked at him open mouthed for a moment and then closed it. "
I had no idea. That is a crazy coincidence," she said with a smile. Lexi blew some bubbles and they went all over the compartment. Giggling she ran a hand through her hair and sighed a little.
"
I am sure you did fine, Jake. It is really hard to have any confidence in myself after last term... I get that. I had a hard time doing much other than basic spells for a while there," she said with a frown evident on her face. She hated feeling that she couldn't get anything right.
Lexi smiled sweetly at Jake and looked at him as though she had never really seen him before. "
I guess there is a lot we have in common that we never knew about, eh."
