She looked over at Blake at the mention of their letter writing, noticing his red face. Huh, had he gotten a sunburn before school started? But yeaaaaaah! It was nice to have a snail-mail friend. She supposed she could maybe get an owl next summer, if her mum would have it. They probably weren't allowed in the flat, but Bernie was good at being sneaky, and it would be worth the risk because owls were SO MUCH FASTER.
Anyway. "Yeah I looked for you too but I didn't see you." Bernie frowned and took another bite of sandwich. "I saw Ilya and Phoebe and Clau--- I mean, no one, no one else." She swallowed her bite and hastily changed the subject. "Did you do anything fun this summer?"
Blake have enough of his sandwich tossed the last bit of crust into the great lake, assuming the giant squid or a bird of some kind would eat the rest of it up.
"Oh you and Isla hung out to then?" Okay, Blake began to realize he had literally ZERO male friends. Everyone he talked to a regular basis was a girl. He had written both Isla and Bernadette all summer, one by snail mail and the other by owl post.
And then Blake heard it ....
"You saw Claudine on the train?" Blake was a little surprised to hear that. He had thought after their little 'snaffoo' and by that he meant that they had both almost died in the forbbiden forest last year that they were a little on the fritz ... maybe Bernadette hadn't told him everyone over the summer.
"Oh you know, I was with my mom in the muggle world all summer, so did mostly muggle things, all though we are talking about taking a possible trip to America next year." That would make for an interesting summer get away.
"What about you? Anything you didn't mention in your letters?" ... was that pushing it?
