"I'm fine," she replied a bit awkwardly, never one to talk about her feelings simply because it wasn't something she could do with her father "I'm just a bit tired and missing Dad. Hogwarts isn't what I expected it would be. But, hey, enough of that, let's fly," instantly Lauren had mounted her broom and zipped off, testing it's acceleration for the first time.
Orchid didn't buy it, but let it pass knowing that she obviously didn't want to talk about, and before she knew it she was on her butt from Lauren's abrupt (and rather speedy) take off. "Brilliant." She muttered to herself, smiling. She mounted her broom and easily
and faster than Lauren! Ha! Take that! climbed to her height. "Wanna race?" She asked smirking, she did say she loved speed didn't she?
