He did have quite a few friends at Beauxbatons... and now he'd have to start all over in that respect.

The fifth year pursed his lips in thought for a moment as their discussion turned to cars. "No, I've not heard of that one... Camaro," he repeated slowly then chuckled at her phrasing. He paused again, in thought. What was the name of that car Jean-Pierre had? "Ferrari... is that the name of one?" he asked, not completely sure. "I got to ride in one of those last term," he added with a smug grin. That was pretty sweet.

"Well, I don't know if it's lucky,"
he said with a shrug as Belle discussed their differences in terms of family. But he didn't really know any different, it was just the way it was. "I have a few cousins that I'm pretty close to," he added, not sure if that made any difference. He knit his brow together in slight confusion as she further discussed her family. "Wow, that must be rough to have to hide who you are from your family," he said. "I mean, sure, we have to hide our true identity from Muggles, but I can't imagine lying to my family like that..." Ethan thought about that for a moment when Belle spoke again.

Well, that was something of an odd question, was his first thought, but so was the way she asked it. Like she was a bit... flustered? Was that the right word? Ethan looked at her for a moment before responding, not sure if she meant friends who happened to be female or like a steady girlfriend, though he was pretty sure she meant the latter. "A few, I guess," he said a bit uncomfortably as he rubbed the back of his neck. "I didn't leave my true love behind, if that's what you mean" he suddenly added with a chuckle, trying to make light of the situation.
When Ethan mentioned making new friends, Belle smiled and reassured him that he will make new friends. "I am sure there are nice people in your house of Ravenclaw who will become your best friends."
Then they started talking about cars. When Ethan said that he didn't know what a Camaro was she was kind of shocked. "Well Camaro is a type of car seen in a muggle movie called Transformers that i watched with my cousins. Have you seen any muggle movies or maybe you have seen some french films?" Belle asked curiously. "I have seen many of them and especially fairy tales kinds of muggle movies." she grinned.
On the topic of asking of having a girl friend, Belle could tell Ethan was a little uncomfortable and dropped the subject. But Belle's heart lifted when he said he didn't leave his true love behind. But she said to make light of the situation with a chuckle, "Well i am glad you have some friends as girls back at home."
