She let her blonde brows knitt together to form a perfectly shaped frown upon her face."Yea,I actually do, now you come to say it... my parents own a little pub thing on a corner. You know.. I-"then it came to her. What he was saying was true. She DID know this boy. It was little Ani.. OMG. She almost physically slapped herself. She had to stop herself from throwing herself at him."Omg Ani!! Little Ani! Ahhhh! I knew it, I knew I recognised you from somewhere, I could never forget those eyes! Not ever!!"she said, laughing as she now let her memories come flooding back to her.She grinned with happiness, wow. Things were looking up for definate.
She laughed even more now she felt a little embarressed. She did know this boy, veryy well, for the past heavens-knows how many years. She shook her head. And then frowned at the mention of having certain circumstances for which he stayed away in his dorm."Ani whats the matter? Is something wrong?",she now let worry wash over her. Her smile came back as he mentioned being happy to be the tour guide. He had no idea,"Wow, you dont know how nice it is to have conversation with someone who seems to have the same interests are me!"she said rolling her eyes. Some past experiences had prevented her from talking to everyone and anyone.
"Mum and Dad didnt like the idea of me coming here, but I knew I wanted to go so that was it. They couldnt keep me from this.. not by a long shot.."she said shrugging
An felt terribly rude for having gone off into his own little world at the mention of the little town, but it was quickly replaced once her face lite up and she began talking excitedly. Little...Ani? The boy's eyes grew wide, and his mouth dropped open before he could stop it. This was
Alex, as in Lexxie who he'd use to play with every summer when he visited his Uncle. He'd known her since he was a wee little one. She'd basically been his closest friend before he met Seb, and now this was
Lexxie at
Hogwarts! His mouth closed, and instead formed a wide grin accompanied by a merry laugh while Anakin opened his arms for a hug, it'd been years!
"Oh my GOSH! I can't believe it's you! I haven't seen you in...in ages! Who'd have thought we'd meet at Hogwarts?" Not him. He would honestly NEVER have guessed.
"Oh, the times we had as kids..." It was funny how seeing someone from your past brought back memories, GOOD memories.
And of course, now that they'd realized they knew each other, quite well, he felt embarrassed for having said anything about his old circumstances. Lex had been pre-accident.
"Erm, right after I saw you last, there was a bit of an accident in which I lost my hearing." But he had it mostly back now, it wasn't the BEST, but he could hear voices and everything now. That was what he'd cared about. Shaking off the awkward feeling, he gave a tiny laugh when she mentioned how nice it was to speak to someone who shared same interests.
"It's true, so much easier to hold a conversation!" Because really, Anakin wasn't much of a conversationalist. Not unless there was a topic of same interests with another person. Usually, anyways.
"Well, I'm certainly glad they WEREN'T able to keep you from coming here! It's brilliant to see you again!"
