Feeling that the conversation wasn’t going so well, Gwen tried thinking of something that would make Beezus talk more, and she could only listen, not having to share a lot. ‘Got any plans for this year?’
As she heard the Headmaster starting his speech, Gwen turned her head towards the staff table. Yeah, pretty much the usual… wait –WHAT?
O__________o
Did he just say- - - ‘ Don’t die?’ Really?! ‘Psh’.
‘So the Gryffindor head of house changed, huh?’, Gwen said, more like to herself. Hmm… not bad.
"Same here." Though she was not that certain if she was saying the truth. Obviously, the two of them weren't comfortable with each other. Hopefully though, since they're in the same house, they could sort things out.
So she's a third year. Older than me, she thought.
"Ermm--I'm in my second year." She answered. And an awkward silence. Thank goodness that she took the initiative to get the conversation going though. "Hmm.. plans.." Beezus mumbled as scratched her chin. She didn't have any infinite plans yet.
"Well..I guess I'd try to make the Quidditch team again and excel in academics once more." Just like last term, she would do her best. "
How about you? Are you somehow interested in Quidditch or plants?" Because if she did then there's a possibility they'd get along.
And unintentionally, she heard that whisper about the new Gryffindor Head of House.
"Yeah, she's the new one." She commented, still uneasy a bit about it.
