She ordered some sort of cookie thing, and turned around and tripped over someone's leg. "Sorry!" she said to the boy, who was sipping a butterbeer. "I'm really clumsy." That she was.
Rob had opened his mouth to say something to Isla when a girl tripped over his leg. He stood to help her up.
"It's quite alright I should perhaps fold these things up and stick them in my pocket, they are so long." He replied with a chuckle. he bent down and lifted the girl to her feet.
"My name is Rob and this is Isla. Will you join us?" Quote:

We tend to move around an awful lot. I think that when I start at Hogwarts, it'll probably be the longest stretch of time that I've ever spent in one place!"
She stopped speaking briefly, thank goodness he was still listening to her rambling. "It's absolutely crazy really, but I've enjoyed all of the travelling we've done. It's been incredible and I'm so thankful to my parents for the opportunities that they've given me. They're kinda... free-spirited. They always have been the 'go with the flow type'," she laughed. "I suppose Hogwarts will be a massive change what with all of the rules and stuff but I'm sure I'll adjust in time."
Isla smiled at him as she took yet another sip of her cherry drink. Blimey, it really was awfully sweet! Not that she honestly minded, she had a serious mad sweet tooth and was constantly craving chocolate and sweets. They were two things that really weren't so good for her figure but she wasn't too fussed about that.
She was perfectly comfortable as she was and she'd never had any complaints about the way that she looked. She was extremely confident, which was probably a good thing. She could be vain at times though, and she knew it. It was something she saw as somewhat of a flaw.
"Yes, My my family is french. But my sister and I were born here." "And so much more, but I can't say yet...." He thought to himself. He had promised Grandpa Rowan that he wouldn't talk about it, unless the person talking to him put two and two together.
"Oui, je parle couramment le français. That is Yes, I speak fluent French." He grinned.
"I lived with my Grandparents in Talmont-Sur-Gironde. a quaint little seaside village."
When he heard that she was the "Go with the flow type", he grinned and felt relief. He could be himself and just see what happened.
"I love being in a place that I can call home. I believe that travel has it's place and is nice, but there is something special about coming back to a place you love and people you love." Rob expressed how he felt, he believed that honesty was one of the most important things in the world, that Love and family were the only two things that were more important.
"So ladies," he said, addressing them both with a smile.
"Will you join me in a game? My treat!"
