Like so many unlucky people who had snuck up on Nate before her, Sophia was greeted with a wand pointed at her chest, courtesy of Nate's new dueling instincts. "Oh," he said, recognizing the girl, "Right, we planned to meet up. Sophia, you said your name was? Nice name. I'm Nate!" It was then that he realized that his wand was still trained on the young girl, and he sheepishly put it away and sat back down. "What did your frame look like?"
Sophie's eyes opened wide when she saw there was a wand pointed at her. She froze and was speechless until he put it away.
"Uh... it's Sophie, actually." she said with her eyes still wide.
"And thanks!" she added, a little more relieved.
"There's a first year in Hufflepuff that's called Nate too!" and now she was smiling again. Phew!
"Well, since I managed to burn my paper a little before I transfigured it, my frame was kind of weird." Sophie said happily, looking at the older boy.
"In a cool way, though!" at least
she thought it looked cool.
"So, what year are you in?" he could make such cool picture frame! He wasn't that young, probably. Although he didn't look much older either...
