See, this is why the sport shouldn't be brought up. Ever.
He nodded, "I truly believe so." His beliefs were mentioned more often than not, and she had great memory which is why she was better at recalling stuff than he was. There was a smile on his face, a smile that didn't match Ellie's expression. Something was worrying her still, although he wasn't sure, she wasn't biting her lip.
The Head Boy felt the need to ask what was wrong, but his mouth closed just as soon as it opened.
"I wouldn't mind walking a little faster, Ellie," honestly, "I want some hot chocolate," AND the Great Hall was too far away, so they better speed up, at least one gear.
Of course he believed so. And why not? She was just telling Eve about how he played Quidditch just for fun. Treyen had many things that were more important to him. She was positive books were somewhere up on that list. Along with plenty of other
things. Those necessary for survival, like food and water, aside.
"I believe some things are more important to you than Quidditch, too." To him.
And then Ellie absorbed herself in thinking up a list of things that just might actually be more important. But it ended up only consisting of things you either couldn't
live without, or couldn't
play without. Like, what was the point of Quidditch if there were no broomsticks? Or Quaffles, Bludgers, and Snitches? Or players because there wasn't water for them to drink to survive? Those things.
It was the mention of chocolate that brought her mind back to reality.
"I want chocolate," she said, her face lighting up. And if getting chocolate sooner meant they had to walk faster, then so be it.
