At least, that was what a lot of kids liked to say when they got to doing things and didn't want her to join. Each time she pointed out the indefensible hypocrisy of them insisting it was only for older kids while hovering too closely to her age, there was always the fallback of being 'more mature'.
It was all a load of dragon dung if you asked her, but they were usually bigger, making it difficult to insist on her participation.
"Daddy always says he'd trust me to go as far as the end of Europe on my own. I know he's only joking but Mummy still gets mad when he says it."
His mention of Hogwarts and the subsequent question of her attendance brought her back to her present predicament of school shopping. Rae scrunched her nose. "They say I have to when the summer's over. I have to get all these supplies. It's useless really. I'll just run away when I get there." A nonchalant shrug rolled off her shoulder. The careless manner in which she spoke hinted at her confidence in her abilities to do so. Rae had been running for as long as she could remember.
Another school wouldn't be the thing to stop that.
Id lifted an eyebrow. Wasn’t that what all kids said? Maybe he had even said it once or twice and it was because of that, he decided to give the girl a chance. And no, he did not believe her story but he would pretend that he did. “Mothers are very protective,’’ Idris agreed. “Mine is the same.” But he loved her with all his heart! “The second someone they detect you’re in some sort of trouble, they’re ready to spring in ‘mama bear’ mode.” Even his best friend, Paul, was sort of afraid of Beatrice Grunt.
So she was just a year younger than he was! Id was about to remark about how he would gladly show her around Hogwarts when she mentioned running away. The guy stared, too surprised to make a comment until about a minute later. “Why on earth would you want to do that? Hogwarts is great.” Then he smirked a little. “Good luck with that though. The place is one of the most secure. Not in an Azkaban sort of way; just that it wouldn’t be as easy to run away from as you may think. For one thing you can end up getting lost since Hogwarts is located in the Highlands… loads of mountains and such.” The smirk turned to a grin. “But if you change your mind, I’d be happy to show you around Hogwarts. I’m Idris, by the way.” |
