'A graduation ring?' Holli asked curiously, taking the ring from Maine carefully. She looked at it. 'Wow! It's beautiful! The beautiful magic, am I right?' Holli asked, looking at the engraving. Interesting. 'Trés bonne!' she grinned.
'I wish we got rings like that at Hogwarts. That'd be awesome...' Holli said sadly. 'I have pictures from Hogwarts. Quite a lot of us doing Quidditch practise. Allie was Captain. There was no way I'd be made Captain. Too mischievious!' she smiled cheekily.
"Actually, Holl, It's Beauty in Magic." Maine smiled.
"Oui? I was under the impression that you pranked together." "I used to play Chaser." she smirked.
"We could play sometime?" Quote:

Maine. Presley would absolutely adore her. She was sweet, polite, high class, and had parts of her past that weren't just peachy-keen. For that matter, Leo adored her. She was an excellent friend, unbelievably beautiful, and willing to help him with hours worth of paperwork. She paid attention when he spoke, she was genuinely listening to everyone around her. Leo very much admired that quality.
"I thought we could just run to the cafe with coloured umbrellas. You know the one? In Diagon Alley, right in the middle?" That was where he usually went for lunch. "Unless you'd rather go somewhere else?" He hastily ammended. It didn't need to be fancy. This wasn't like...a date. However much Leo might wish it was. Maine didn't like him like that. She was a sweet girl with a tragic past, looking for a good, true friend. She probably didn't think of him in a romantic capacity at all.
Meeting his questioning gaze, Maine had to stop herself from drowning into his eyes.
"There are two times for the ANS, really. One in January, the other in May. Just that Gabby and I took the earlier one." Because we had idiot fiancees waiting for us to get out of school, she added silently.
Speaking of Gabby, she'd really love Leo. For starters, he wasn't French. Gabby loved change, embraced it, actually. He was nice, too. Caring and actually, the polar opposite of Alan.
"How's the Muggle Café of the corner outside?" Maine asked.
"It's nearer. But the one with colored umbrella's fine too." It's just that Maine loooooved Muggle food. It was delish.
But it wasn't a date, no matter how much Maine wanted it to be. Leo was probably seeing someone else and Maine really wasn't that great.
