Dragging Fleur along beside me was like trying to drag a mule to work. Fleur had always wanted to take her time with things, she was never one to be in any sort of hurry but it wasn't because she dreaded the Scouting Legion or anything. Having a strong belief that one should always stop to enjoy the smaller things in life is what she had mentioned kept her going through these dark times. I honestly can say that I admire her for that but not when we're going to be late! "Come on, Dewdrop. We can stop and smell the flowers later." I was have teasing her when I spoke but I couldn't mask my annoyance. I might have been close to literally dragging her down the street but Fleur just gave me a bit of a lazy look and a smirk, she could really care less about getting to the group.

Her mind seemed else where when she started up another topic at we jogged along, "Hey, I've been thinking." pausing meant that my dear friend was thinking of something so, I stayed silent but kept up our pace. "I've been thinking that, maybe it would be better if we started living with the other members of the Legion." Now I hadn't been expecting that change of topic. We've lived with each other since we decided to join the Scouting Legion, why would she suddenly want to change everything? I tried to laugh but it caught in my throat. "That's very out of the blue." was all I managed to say, I couldn't tell what she was thinking but something inside told me it wasn't good. The silence from behind me confirmed that Fleur wasn't too sure was to say next or how to even put her thoughts into words.

"I was just thinking that….it would be better for us. You know, incase something happens to one of-" I had to cut her off at that point. I knew what she was going to say next, it hurt to think about it but it hurt even more that I thought she was right. If we lived with the others we could form better bonds with them, make more friends. It wouldn't be just us anymore but if one of us did get killed we wouldn't have to go back home to nothing. "Stop, don't think about that stuff." I wanted to say more, maybe to comfort Fleur and her own silent troubles but I didn't want to say anymore on the subject, I didn't want to think that something like that could happen to us, like Bree.
