Tell her long lost brother to shove off? She gave a wry smile. "Realleh, jus' like that?" Dora was such a Gryffindor sometimes. And Sam wasn't actually convinced it would work. Usually when she told Al to shove off, they just ended up in a game rough and tumble over who was gonna do the dishes. "I suppose. I'm kinda nervous excited about it, s'all."

It was a big new thing.

Another big new thing.

At that mocking, Sam pushed higher off the ground to catch up with her friend. "Pfft, I'm not that short! Jus' cos you 'ad another growth spurt over the 'olidays!" She was catching up, slowly. "But you're probably right. 'e's your age and a boy too."

"Nah, c'mon, what's up? Yeh solved my problem, didn't yeh? Only fair I reciprocate."
