"Hello!"
"Hi."
"My name is Amy!"
"That's nice."
"How rude!"
Julie Ann sighed and turned away from Amy. Why does everyone call me rude. I'm not! I'm just hostile and defensive. And a little arrogant and self-assured.
"Please pardon her. She's rather ... enthusiastic."
"Enthusiastic is polite, if not accurate."
"You're Julie Ann?"
"Yes. Who are you?"
"Elyssa."
"Ah. I'm sitting here."
"Beg your pardon?"
"Well, I could have asked whether you you minded if I sat here but then i decided that i really don't care whether you mind."
"Ah."
"What year are you?"
"third. You are first."
"yes. Yes I am. Any particular reason you felt the need to reiterate that fact?"
"I don't know. Confirmation?"
"hm... is this the part where i ask whether we can be friends? 'Cause it'd be nice to have a friend but that is incredibly cheesy. "
"uh... we're friends. That's about all i need to say."
"good"
Julien sat staring at the food in front of him.
He wondered whether he'd made the right choice, asking to be in Gryffindor. He sighed oh well, not much i can do about it now.
The boy next to him stared at him intently. Julien turned to him mildly and asked why he him what was so captivating.
The boy slowly turned crimson."ahhh... hem!... sorry. Did you know that you have sighed 7 times in the past 2 minutes? What's the matter? You homesick?"
Julien thought for a moment before answering slowly. "No. At least, I don't think so. Though being gone and away from my Mum is relief and a sadness. She's a very sweet lady but she won't let Julie alone."
"who's Julie?...Oh, your sister? Is she the one that gave the freaky death glare to the hat and nearly slapped the girl at the Slytherin table?"
"yeah. Julie is very individualistic. She tends to lead people even if she doesn't know where they're going. Well.. supposed to be going at any rate. She always knows where she's taking them."
