She was looking forward to that lunch date, too. Was it a date? It hadn't been established specifically, but... she assumed it was. Either way, she was looking forward to it.
January just smiled when he spoke of his brother. "Perhaps 'finding himself' is who he really is. Always exploring and having adventures." January shrugged lightly. She was no expert, but it was just a thought. Some people just couldn't settle for staying put in one place.
"Oh, I'm sure we did," January said with a wave of her hand. "It's hard not to run into classmates your own age, but you can't expect to remember everyone you went to school with." She had been a bit of an introvert in her Hogwarts days anyway, so it wasn't all that surprising. But she kept that bit of information to herself. Oh, he had been in Gryffindor. For some reason, she got those two mixing into each other occasionally. January laughed lightly. "No reason to be offended. Some Slytherins are decent," she teased lightly. He was more than decent, though. She quite liked him.
Surfing? Yikes. "No, I haven't, although I do love to be in water." Surfing was something that she wasn't sure she'd ever try. "Do you surf?"
All in good time.* Now that's what he liked to hear.* Oliver had no idea what William had been so worried about.* He and January were getting on famously and he was behaving himself which he did anyway.* he didn't know where his friend got his ideas about him from.* Just because there had been the occasional misbehaving on his part.* He was pretty sure that January wouldn't put up with that anyway.* He was rather looking forward to their lunch date.
*
"Maybe." But Oliver didn't believe it.* Then again*January wasn't part of the family*so being an outsider she*would probably have a better perspective on*Fred*than he could.*
"Good luck to him I guess.* Although I*think it's better to travel when you're younger."*You have more fun.* That was probably the Gryffindor in him thinking that way.*
"Have you done much travelling in your time?"
*
Well that was true of course, he was sure that there were a lot of people he had forgotten about and plenty that he wished he could forget about.*
"Well I guess I shouldn't feel too bad.* You didn't remember me*either." He*teased.* Once upon a time he would probably have been offended by that but these days he wasn't too fussed about it. Maybe he getting mature in his old age.* Yeah William had been in Slytherin and he was decent.**Or he was.
*
"I most certainly do." When he got the chance which wasn't a lot these days.*
"I used to surf professionally.* With the muggles.* I did that for about four or five years I think." They were the good old days when he got to chase the summers, spending practically all his time at the beach and being surrounded by women in bikini's.* He sometimes missed that.**
"I'd be happy to teach you if you ever wanted to try it." And yes he was already imagining*her in a bikini. Some habits were hard to break.
*
Once again his gaze went to the dance floor for a second before returning to January.**He really wanted to ask her to dance but William was out there with Alysson and he figured it was best to stay away from his BFF for a while.*
"I'm not stopping you from mingling and getting to know*other people am I?" She was new to the Ministry after all.* She probably wanted to get to know the people that worked there.* He could probably do with some mingling himself seeing how he*had worked at the Ministry for the past year or so and he barely knew anyone.* But eh...he*could do that anytime if he felt so inclined to.* He would much prefer to talk to January all night.*
