And Lux, well she's only a second year so she might not understand as much but I'm pretty sure she'll stay my friend. And Tessa I've known for years, since Beauxbatons actually, so she'll definitely not abandon me. What about you? You wont leave me just because I've gone study crazy will you?" she asked, leaning closer towards him and tilting her head slightly, tone mock serious. She was pretty sure he liked her enough for that to not happen. "I do know that," Ana sighed, leaning back in her chair slightly. "But I also have to do well to set a good example for my younger siblings. They've never really had Sasha or Liza to look up to as they were never around for them like they were me. See Vaska and Katya have always lived with my mum and step-dad but Sasha, Liza and I lived with my dad full time, but I spent more time with my mum than they did after the divorce. And when my dad passed they were already seventeen so at University, while I moved in with my mum. I will try not to go overboard with my studying though," Ana promised. If she did it was likely to just wear her out and end up with her doing badly on her OWLs because she was run down and unable to perform to her true potential. "Hey!" Ana exclaimed, leaning forward and smacking him lightly on the arm. "I take offence to that. I'm clearly the most fabulous person you know. You should be proud to be my knight," she said jokingly, a small smile playing on her lips. She knew he was joking, but that didn't mean that she couldn't play along. "Good. I'll set something up then when we get back to the castle. Maybe we could have a picnic together or something," Ana suggested, remembering how much Lux said she enjoyed those. Ana enjoyed them too so she thought if she set up another meeting, this time between everyone, she could do another one. It would be nice.
He was sweet to be paying for her. He definitely didn't have to, Ana was more than capable of paying for herself, but if that's what he wanted to do then she wouldn't protest. She'd just have to get him something in return at some point. Whether that be later today or on another trip was yet to be decided. "Umm, I think I'll just have what you are," Ana finally decided. She liked fish and chips, so if he was getting that then it would be a good choice. But she wasn't really big on sandwiches unless they were of the Cucumber variety. Of course it wouldn’t be possible she would lose any of her friendships. “To be honest, if anyone did get annoyed and didn’t understand why you weren’t around with them, I wouldn’t consider them particularly good friends.” He wouldn’t have been impressed if any of his friends whined about it. In fact, it was quite nice to see that some of them had missed him when he had locked himself away to study, meant that they actually cared. He chuckled at her question, a small smirk coming to his face. “Oh I don’t know, depends” he teased her. “I promise I won’t leave you.” In fact, he’d gladly do the opposite. He said he’d help her with her revision and he was going to keep to that promise.
Okay.. She had a fairly complicated family tree. So many siblings and names he didn’t recognise. The Slytherin nodded along although he was getting a little lost in the conversation. “Just don’t put too much pressure on yourself, okay?” he told her, his tone serious. “I don’t want to see you having a nervous breakdown and I’m fairly certain that it wouldn’t be a great impression on your siblings if you did.” She should just do the best that she could. That was all that should be asked of her. And this was why he was thankful that he only had one sibling and she was his twin anyway so they didn’t look up to one another.
“Ow” the seventeen year old chuckled as she lightly smacked his arm, more in retaliation and as an automatic response rather than that it hurt, which of course it did not. He couldn’t help but to smirk at her statement. “Oh I don’t know, I know some pretty great people” he winked. “You’re definitely in the top 20.” She knew he was joking though didn’t she? More like the top 3. “That sounds like fun” he agreed with her, thinking of something he could bring along to it. “You can help me bake something in the kitchens, I’ll teach you to cook like I said I would.” After their conversation in which she told him she couldn’t cook, he was sure that it would be quite amusing to have a session in the kitchens, even if it did involve making a huge mess.
He nodded when she agreed to have what he was having and he ordered the food plus two butterbeers, his personal favourite beverage at the Three Broomsticks. “I promise its surprisingly good.” The pub didn’t look like much, not from the outside anyway, and the interior was cosy and homely but it didn’t look like it would produce particularly great food. But it did and Terry always liked to come here when it was Hogsmeade weekend.
He let it go quiet for a minute when he coughed to break the silence and as a preparation for what he was about to say. “I umm..” he started, glancing briefly down at the table and then back up at her. “I have something to ask you..” he started.
