About three minutes into the train ride, a middle aged lady was
pushing a cart down the aisleway. "It's about time. I'm hungry." Harry
said, getting up and heading towards the cart. "I kinda am too. Want
anything, Ron?" "No, I'm fine thanks." "You sure?" "Yeah, now go on." Cai
started walking toward the cart. "Hey do you know if Ron wants anything? I
forgot to ask him." Harry asked Cai. "I asked him, but he said no." "Oh, he
always does. He's kinda embarrased because he doesn't have a lot of money.
If you wanna get him something though, get him the Chocolate Frogs. He
collects the cards and only needs one more." "Thanks Harry." He nodded and
walked back to where they were sitting. Cai picked up one handful of
Chocolate Frogs and another handful of Sugar-Spun Quills. She paid, then
went back to her seat. She dropped all the Chocolate Frogs on Ron's lap and
he said "I said I didn't want anything Cai. Why did you...." "Just can it
Ron. And say thanks." she said smiling. "Thanks." Harry laughed and said
"Ron, I think you've found your match." "Harry, will you please...."
"Alright Ron, sorry."
Ron was on his fourth Chocolate Frog and suddenly they heard him yell "Wicked! I finally got the one I need!" "See, if I wouldn't've got them for you, you wouldn't have got your card." Ron smiled at her and said "Thanks." "No prob Ron. So how long does it take to get there?" "Oh, about a half hour or more, sometimes it just depends." Harry answered. "Well I'm kinda tired..." "Why don't you rest your head on Ron's...." "HARRY!" They both jumped at the sound of Ron's voice. "Hey Ron, he was just joking ya know..." "I know, I'm sorry. I just...." "Need anger management classes? Don't worry. I have the same problem." Ron laughed. "Well, that too actually, but I was gonna say I get embarrased easily." "In front of girls especially." Harry finished. "Harry, maybe you should just stop joking..." Cai said. "Yeah, I noticed." "You alright Ron?" Cai asked Ron as he put her hand over his. He looked down at their hands and then said "Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine...." He smiled at her and their finger intertwined. "Maybe I should go now. I have too many jokes running through my head right now and I don't wanna make anyone mad." He got up and walked down the aisle to find somewhere else to sit.
"So what's with this?" Cai asked, looking down at their hands locked together. Ron smiled. "You tell me, you touched my hand first." Cai laughed. "I don't know, just instinct I guess." "You know....if you are tired...." "You'll let me..." "Yeah, here." He put his arm around her and she laid her head on his shoulder. Quickly, she was asleep.
