And sure enough, as she came to the lake, she saw it frozen and people ice-skating on top. "wow" she breathed.
She noticed Nika by the side of the lake and went over to her.
"Hey. Are you coming on as well?" she asked nodding slightly at the lake.
She had been ice skating a few times with her sister, but she was still scared the ice woudn't take her weight. She hated the though of crashing through the ice into the cold water below. shudder
Nika turned around a bit frightened by the sound of a voice. She jumped in place and quickly found her balance as she looked over to see who had started talking.
"Oh, Emily it's you," she gave a quick sigh of relief.
"I thought I was going mental and I heard your voice in my head or something." She giggled,
a little too much information? "Err, actually I really would love to try and skate! Although I have never really gone before so it's like a new adventure!" She smiled while looking around at students doing twirls and skating like true naturals. It was going to be hard to fit in.
"Hopefully I won't brake any bones or Crack my head or bleed..." Nika shuddered thinking about that fall she took in Care of Magical Creatures class.
Not fun. Nika brought her attention back to emily.
"So do you have your own skates? I never knew that I should have brought some with me. I thought that we were just going to learn magic. I had no idea what fun Hogwarts would be." Nika looked down at her little cozy boots,
"I really want to go, but I reckon I can't if I don't have the right type of shoes." Maybe they would provide shoes? If not it was alright, she could just stand there and watch her friends. Not a problem.
