He was bored? That must be nice.

"How can you be bored when there's so much to do?" she asked, bewilderment written across her face. "Are you studying for OWLs? Are you keeping up with your homework? What about quidditch practice?" She was going big sister on him, but only because he was family and his success mattered to her. As for walking out, it was probably lucky that uncle Kennedy was at the castle or Johnny would have found a tunnel out of here.

Serena sighed at his question. She sat down on a small boulder near the water, and shrugged. "Not much thus far. I've been studying for OWLs mostly." Limited because of her arm. Now that it was back to normal she was going out at full force. She did...have questions for Johnny, though. He was like her in the honesty and bluntness department, so Serena could expect solid answers from him. "You're a boy, Johnny. How do you let someone know you like them? Like-like them?" Maybe she could learn to understand boy brains through him.
Johnny grinned and nodded, he was glad she was feeling better. At least she didn’t lose an arm like Uncle Kennedy. Don’t worry, the arm was reattached.

”Besides schoolwork and class? So far it’s be lame.” Johnny sighed. The boy had a short attention span and needed mental stimulation and to keep himself active in order to keep himself interested. ”Quidditch, yes! Everything else I’m working on. Did my mum tell you to ask me that?” He teased. His mom would always be keeping him on track, she would constantly nag him if he didn’t meet school deadlines and ground him by not letting Johnny do anything related to Quidditch as punishment.

Johnny sat on a boulder next to Serena and nodded, she was quite studious unlike himself. Very admirable. ”Studying makes me nauseous." He had a studying allergy apparently (not really). Baffled, John nodded, ”Last time I checked, I am.” He nodded, but what was this all about? And then it clicked. ”Just tell him? Later we’ll all die said the gator to the fly.” Considering the history of the school, that saying surely applies. ”Don’t beat it around the bush or be cryptic, that only leads to words lost in translation and misunderstandings. Be firm and spill it!” And how did he come up with his response? Well it’s what his dad advised his older siblings when they had relationship issues. Except for Henry, he’s too busy being a moody vampire.
