but he was cute and she had possibly crushed on him a bit at the beginning of the term. "I honestly don't know what I did to her. All I've done this term is support her." She didn't want to talk ill about anyone, but she hated when people didn't like her and it bothered her all term that Valarie seemed to hate her.
She noticed the frown and watched him curiously and then he brought up the challenge and she reached over and placed her hand on his arm.
"I know that was hard for everyone. How they felt bringing loved ones in was okay." She shook her head not believing they did that. "You got through it though and you did amazing. Everyone did, I'm glad all the people they brought in are okay too." She at least didn't hear that anyone was not okay.
He then asked about summer and truthfully she wasn't even sure at this point. "Well that is the busy season for my parents. We own a ranch that does mountain horseback riding tours. So I'll be helping with that and hopefully competing with my Junior Team squad like I have in the past. I tried out for the national team and just got the letter that I didn't make it." She hadn't told many she even tried out, because making it meant she wouldn't be going back to Ilvermorny. [b] "What are your plans? Something exciting and relaxing she hoped after this term. Well that took him by surprise. Momentarily stunned, Jesús drank more of his coffee in order to recover from her previous statement. "We're friends," he assured her, though there was some truth to her words. "I mean, I do like her," he didn't see any problem speaking frankly on this matter, "but she is very complicated." Sometimes even a little more than that. "You didn't do anything," he said calmly, feeling bad that she caught the brunt of Valerie's anger at times. "She doesn't like most people, if that helps," though he wasn't entirely sure if it did, "though don't worry, I won't let her push you around."
The Thunderbird didn't confide much about his feelings - to anyone, really - but Madelyn had a certain kindness to her, he couldn't help but be a little open. "Thanks, that really means a lot." And he meant that, truly. "I hope they modified my grandma's memory a bit, I don't need her being skittish around magic even more than she already is." He really could not believe that this sort of thing was allowed. The sixth year was shocked at her summer plans. "I would've never pegged you for the outdoorsy type," he replied, growing a little more impressed with her. "Oh, I'm sorry about that." He didn't take rejection well, so he could only imagine how Madelyn felt (especially given how enthusiastic she was about cheering.) "But, that means you won't be out of school then, right? Will you try out again?"
Jesús finished the rest of his coffee and considered ordering another one later. He still needed another boost of energy to get through the rest of the day. "It depends on whether or not I decide to come back to Ilvermorny," he leaned back in his chair, mind buzzing over that bit of truth. "If I don't, then I'll probably look for a non-profit to work at, do some volunteering, probably stage a few protests," he said casually, grinning mischievously at the thought.
