Maybe not a proper one.. but they could still spend some time together, even if it was doing something as mundane as studying. And speaking of spending time together..the boy looked at the ground and smiled a little, as he imagined her scenario. "That sounds amazing," he finally said. Maybe camping could actually be fun. Tilting his head slightly, Ethan looked at Minnie as she laughed. Right.. Mick and Laura.. too entertaining for words. "That might be fun.." the boy said, trying to picture the four of them on that golf course. "I tried it just once so I'm probably not very good at it." No.. he knew he wasn't any good at it. "I hear that you're quite the expert, though," he added with a wink. Hopefully he wouldn't embarrass himself too badly.
He grinned a little at the thought of candy. It had been too long since he had a chocolate frog.. and she would send him some Muggle chocolate over the summer, how fun. But his smile faltered a little at the thought. Of course she would have to owl it to him.. they wouldn't be seeing each other every day during the summer like they did now. They would be able to visit at least a little though, right? He smiled again, though, at the mention of Hogsmeade. "It would be nice to get out of this castle, wouldn't it?" He was starting to get a bit of cabin fever and the common room situation wasn't helping matters.. "Chocolate frogs and a date with a beautiful girl.. sounds like a great time," he said with a wink.
The boy internally shuddered at the mention of bludgers. He hated those things and didn't really want to continue that line of thinking.. but he was in the air now anyway. He was flying fast, rounding the edge of the pitch, when he looked back behind him again. The boy grinned a little, as he noticed Minnie chasing after him. Yep, she was a pretty good flier so far.. he figured she would be. And he slowed down, just slightly, so she could catch up to him. Chasing each other could be fun.. but for now, he'd rather fly next to her.. at least for a little while.
Minerva smiled, probably with a little to much excitement for the library..
"Yes.. It's a date!" She winked at him. Anytime she got to spend with Ethan was a great time in her book, plus the library was one of her favorite places, so it was win/win. Minerva smiled as he talked about Laura and Mick.
"Yes, I think that min gold could be fun." She then blushed and looked at him with some surprise..
"What do you mean you heard I was... I'm not that great, I just have played before here. It's a fun little pass time in America." The only person she had played with was DJ, did he say something to Ethan.
With a smile that would not leave her face she got excited hearing about a possible trip to hogsmeade with Ethan. Then she blushed as he said about her being beautiful. He was always being so sweet to her.
"Well I hope Hogsmeade will be available to us soon, because going to Honeydukes and then the three broomsticks with you is one of the best ideas I have heard." Spending time at the castle had been a great time, but getting out of the castle and spending time with Ethan sounded like an even better idea. Minerva already started running through her outfits she could possibly wear and then remembered that most of her cute things were stuck locked in the common room.. Well that was sad, but she would figure something out.
Laughing as she went into the air, she leaned forward on her broom and took off quickly to try and catch up. Noticing he slowed she frowned a bit hoping he didn't think he would have to go easy on her. She pulled up on her broom to slow when she got closer.
"So what shall we do now that we are up here?" She laughed and leaned forward to send the broom zooming forward.
