He was enjoying his present company anyway and turned his attention back to the table.
Something about himself.. He thought for a moment. The question always made him slightly uncomfortable because he was never quite sure what to say.. but she didn't really know much of anything about him, did she? Other than his mother had been a Slytherin. Giving Hannah a friendly smile, he turned to her and said, "Well.. I was born in Germany to English parents. I'm their only child.. And I spent the last four years at Beauxbatons.. I just transferred here this year." He paused. That was fairly concise, wasn't it? "Anything else you'd like to know? Just ask.." he added lightly.
Ethan leaned back in his chair before continuing.. "Please.. tell me about yourself as well.. I don't know anything about you other than you're Elliot's friend.. and you tend to have incredibly pleasant dreams," he added with an amused smirk. While those were interesting things in themselves.. it wouldn't hurt to know more about her, right?
Hannah watched as Ethan struggled with some sort of emotion as he looked over at the puffs. She wondered for a moment what was going on inside that mind of his.
"If you need to go over there I don't mind." she said with a raised eyebrow. She didn't like feeling that she was keeping him here when really he preferred to be somewhere else.
So he did transfer this year. She didn't think that she had seen him before. Surely she would have remembered a face like his.
"Beauxbatons huh? So how is Hogwarts measuring up? She always thought that Beauxbatons was more sophisticated. He certainly had manners maybe that was from there or perhaps his parents.
"Only child? You have to tell me what that is like" Hannah was far from being an only child and she could just imagine what having no one to compete with would be like. She felt like she had to prove that she was just as good as Marcos which was difficult to do since he was so perfect...according to her parents anyways.
Of course he would want to know something about her in return. What should she tell him? She never did really open up to people that quickly. She shot him a smile.
"There's a lot more to me besides my awesome taste in friends and my oh so lovely dreams you know." Where to start?
"Well I come from a long line of noble purebloods." Oh yeah...and she was proud of that. She was brought up to be proud of her heritage.
"My parents are very strict." That was understatement.
"Everybody has been in Slytherin." She eyed him to see how he was taking what she was saying. A lot of people automatically assumed that she was bad news...which she could be if somebody went there with her.
"I'm far from an only child. I have an older brother, younger brother and a younger sister." She had a love/hate relationship with all of them, but who didn't right?
"Oh and my favorite color is green." Go figure right?
She leaned in closer and rested her head on her arms which were propped up on her legs.
"Anything else you would like to know?"
