Jayla tapped her foot almost as fast as her heart was beating. "Jeez, Jayla, calm down." 2D breathed.

She smiled apprehensively. "Sorry."

"I hope this kid can adjust to me… for his sake and yours." Amiyah said, eying her friend.

Jayla looked at her hands. She had told 2D and Amiyah that she had wanted to get Tristian into their small friend group. 2D was instantly okay with it. Amiyah didn't exactly get it.

"He's here." 2D announced.

Jayla looked towards the door and saw Tristian. He was obviously wearing his muggle clothing since they were in Hogsmeade. He wore all black except for his gray beanie and Ravenclaw scarf. He saw her and rushed over, sitting next to her. Amiyah and 2D just stared at him. He looked at them but quickly looked down.

Jayla cleared her throat. "This is Tristian."

He peered up at her friends. "Hey, Thomas. Hey, Amiyah." He uttered.

"You can call me 2D." Jayla's best guy friend said.

"Oh, okay." Tristian mumbled.

"What do you like to do?" Amiyah asked.

"Um… I study and I play the bass." Tristian answered, rubbing his palms on his jeans. Jayla tried to give him a reassuring look but Tristian still looked like he wanted to vomit.

"You play the bass?! I play guitar!" Amiyah exclaimed.

Tristian smile a small smile. "Jayla told me."

"I play keyboard." 2D mentioned.

"Did you bring your bass to school?" Amiyah asked.

He nodded. "I basically bring it everywhere."

"I brought my guitar but this twit forgot his keyboard." She complained, jabbing her thumb in 2D's direction.

He rolled his eyes. "It's not like you use it a lot anyways, you daft cauldron-head." 2D retorted. They quickly started a long argument about something that was barely related to music.

"I thought all of you were friends?" Tristian said.

"We are… they just argue a lot." Jayla shrugged. "Usually, I have no one to talk to whilst they are, so… it's nice to have you around." She told him.

He smiled.
