"It's a little scary, actually," he started, holding her gaze in the process to see whether she thought he was a freak. "I mean... there are so many things I've never heard of, and... I miss my old life-style." The TV, following Tottenham's matches, the video games and hanging out with his friends in the city and cinemas and all... Not that he did all these every week--he was lucky if he'd gone out once in a month, but still... it was much more apalling than being stuck in a dirty and broken castle.
"But I'll get used to it," he quickly added, because that kinda sounded like he was comparing his life-syle with hers and that was rude.
Forrest was impressed. Even though he didn't know whether Luxembourg Academy was good, he assumed it was, by the way she put it.
It was time for his eyes to return their normal size, thank you.
"I--uh, no," he muttered, mind still hazy for having met the sister of a professional Quidditch player. "I don't even know what it exactly is." He grinned sheepishly. "But if you make it into team, I'll watch your games." A soft smile crossed the girl's face as she nodded when he said that he thought it was scary - making her kind of empathize with that entire thing... and she could definitely imagine that he'd miss the way he used to live... after all this was pretty much an entirely different world, which she could kind of understand.
"I guess I sort of understand... I found Hogwarts scary at first because I didn't know what to expect but that's nothing compared to all of it being new" she mused aloud, turning away for a moment as she thought before she turned back towards Forrest. "So what kind of stuff did you do?" she asked, cocking her head to the side in curiosity as she asked, finding it all interesting because there were those times where she'd had... a taste test of muggle life. "I know when I'm with Amy she takes me shopping sometimes, or we just watch a movie on the... tv?" she ended almost with a question as she wondered if it was even called a tv... if she was wrong he'd probably understand though, with so much stuff that he'd had to learn about her world. "Amy's a muggle" she quickly clarified, thinking about how that probably sounded weird.
The irish girl giggled slightly at how his eyes widened, a larger smile forming on her face as she shook her head mockingly that he didn't know about Quidditch though she made sure it was clear she wasn't serious. "Hmm... I might not get on considering there are heaps of good players" she admitted with a shrug before thinking. "But if I'm not on the team I might drag you to at least one game" she continued to tease before getting slightly more serious, though the smile still on her face.
"So how much do you know about Quidditch?" yes, how much? Because that was a very important thing to know he definitely had to be taught |
