"Okay... later then just so you know," she whispered back to him in a tone a bit more than a whisper. She was soooo not letting him get away with REFUSING to hug her in public.
Turning her pout back into a beaming smile she bounced a bit happily and said, "It's lovely to see you as well, Tom. How have you been? How did you enjoy Diagon Alley? I am really sorry I haven't been around to show you about. Holiday ran over a bit and then I had things to tend to at home." Yes... this was all said in one breath. Hehe. Gulping down some air she smiled wider still and bounced a bit more.
Following Tom's gaze to Sal she shook her head causing her blonde hair to whip around a bit. "You are not intruding or interrupting, Tom. This is my... this is Salander and this is Alice... I reckon I have mentioned Salander to you more than a few times, yeah? He is Head Boy of Hogwarts this term." Formal introductions out of the way and all. Tom frowned a little. Now he felt a bit bad for not greeting the girl in a more friendly manner. He smiled a little and nodded his head in agreement to her whispered words. He could manage a hug in private.
Lexi seemed excited. Tom wasn't sure whether it was seeing him, or the prospect of returning to the magic school that was making her bouncy. The excited energy radiating off her made him nervous and twitchy and he fidgeted with his wand which was still in his hand. “Yeah, I'm good fanks, Lexi.” He replied with a nod, trying his best to sound cool and casual. He shrugged his shoulders. “Dun' worry 'bou' it.” He replied to her apology. “I got everyfin' I need I fink. Me wand.” He held it up to show her. That was THE most important thing, right? “Ain' been able to do anyfin' wiff it yet mind.” He added. “Me maagic's still only showin' itself when I lose me tempah.” Which, fortunately... or unfortunately, depending on how you looked at it, was quite often. "Did you 'av a nice 'oliday?” he asked brighter, tilting his head and looking at the girl curiously as she bounced some more. He was beginning to relax a little thanks to the company and conversation. “It's Broadmoor.” He corrected when introduced as Tom. EVERYONE back home called him by his last name. He looked up at the older boy and nodded his head. “Yeah... 'eard a lot abou' you, Salandah. Nice tah finally meechah.” Although the Head Boy thing was news to the young lad. Instant dislike. Coppahs, teachers, people in authoritative positions were all bad in Tom's book. He frowned and looked away and at the other girl whom Lexi was introducing. “'Ello, Alice.” He greeted her with a nod of the head and a small polite smile.
