I bet they wish you'd not get into trouble so much, but really that just means they care about you..." Honestly, the professors at Hogwarts were lovely. ...Well most of them, anyway! "As for your family..." Shrug. "But if they don't see how great you are then...then THEY are the stupid ones, yeah?" Not that Ella felt comfortable saying Laura's family was stupid, cause she wasn't. They were acting pretty stupid, though. "Hey!" Ella said more forcefully this time, her frown more pronounced. "Don't do that. Don't put down Hufflepuffs. Saying what you said means that we're all stupid for being in that house...and none of us are stupid. Not one." So she really needed to stop that now, yeah? "And so what if we're all a bit nuts? Life would be so boring if everybody was so worried about being normal and perfect all the time...Plus it would be like-SO exhausting!" True. "Of course I mean it, Laura." And up went the pinky. Cause to Ella, a pinky promise was forever.
Laura looked at Ella and wasn't really paying attention. "It's like this Ella I'm stupid, I'm thick and I don't deserve Hair like this." Laura grabbed a handful of her hair and before Ella could do anything she cut a handful of her hair, holding it up she looked at Ella. "There now I am a nutter like everyone says I am." She ignored Ella pinky and just stared at the wall, seriously everyone was calling her a nutty behind her back she knew it and she didn't care what her bestie said now she was sure her grandfather was right and that she was a rubbish person who didn't deserve any friends.
