Ben wasn't really paying attention to those coming nearby and even the one who sat down beside him, until he heard his name. Well the nickname his best friend insisted on calling him, and he quickly turned to see said friend. "Hey..." he greeted back, unable to help the smile that graced his face. Even though it faltered at the use of old.
"No...no old...thank you."
Wait. Was his best friend actually smiling? Of course Benny smiled but that happened like... once in a blue moon. He was the serious one of the pair. Hmm... Benny smiled easily (at least for now) but Adi could see his friend was still not so fond of words. His idea of the Babbling Beverage came to mind once more. Maybe this term around he would use it on the Lion. Hehe.
"Well, you'll always be an old Dragon to me,'' Adi replied as he scanned the Slytherin Table looking for Sophie, Caleb and Cutty. Mostly Sophie. Why had he not found his friends on the Train this term? Ah, well.
"So, Benny,'' the third year continued, his attention now fully on his friend once more.
"Had a good summer?''
