Ella smiled. Of course she'd help Blue!
Not that she was some kind of kite expert or anything...but she would try!
"Yeah sure, we'll make the best kites ever!" ...even if they did come out looking all weird and ugly. Hmmm..a skeleton kite or a kite that looks like a plane?
"Well I guess a skeleton kite sounds easier...but we could attempt to make a plane one. I'll help you give it a shot!" Luckily for Blue, Ella liked a challenge. As for charming the kite to make airplane noises...that sounded a bit hard.
"You know, I bet one of the older kids could help us with that part! There must be prefects around here somewhere...they are putting this whole thing on, aren't they?" So it was kinda their duty to help out the younger kids make EPIC kites. Mhmmm. It was.
O____o Ghosts and giant mice? Hmm...very questionable. But Ella couldn't help but enjoy Blue's imagination. She was creative, Ella had to give her that.
"Wow! That ghost sounds like a real meany! And to squirt the glue into your hands after it scared you?! We should call the..." Who did you call when there was something strange in the neighborhood...OH, right!
"THE GHOSTBUSTERS!" Surely
they were listed in the phonebook.
"And I think to get your hand apart we just need to...um...maybe try to scourgify them or something? Do you think that might work?"
A reliable source.
PSH. Theodore wasn't reliable! He was telling fibs. He was a flippin fibber. A LITTLE LURKER WHO FLIPPED HIS HAIR AND TOLD FIBS. Hmph. "Blue it isn't true. I promise." Cue sincere nod of the head.
"It's not that I don't think Alec and Theodore are awesome, cause I do. I mean I wouldn't hang out with either of them if they were normal weirdo boys..." Honestly.
"I just don't like them...like that."
Oh Merlin's pants. Blue really wasn't a good liar. Usually this was a good trait in the person but with a friend like Theodore...well perhaps Blue needed some lessons? Ella would have to get that Elliot girl to teach her. She seemed like she knew how to lie.
"This ghost has really hurt my feelings, you know. He...erm that is if it is a he...shouldn't go around spreading rumors." UNTRUE rumors at that.
Was she sure? Hmm...of course she was! Did Alec have very nice hair? Yeah. Was he a nice boy? Yup. Did Ella want to like...date him? Nope. She just didn't. It wasn't her fault she didn't! As for Theodore...well he was Theo! ...The little lurker! He was like her little annoying brother or something. So no, she didn't like like him either.
"I'm sure Blue. I pinky swear I don't love either of them...like that." And her pinky was extended out to the first year.
