She shrugged, knowing that (like Derek), Nick probably thought it was going to be a difficult two weeks without magic. It still confused her that purebloods sometimes found it difficult to live without magic. Still. She wasn't going to voice that opinion again.

She nodded. 'We used to meet every Monday, and we learnt basic life skills. Often we were in the local church hall, but sometimes we went out and about to learn about outdoors. Also, sometimes, we had camps, but I only went on one of them,' she explained.

It didn't surprise Belle Nick hadn't been to a camp before with anyone his own age. It wasn't exactly something she found Hogwarts offered until now. 'As I said, just Brownies and back garden camps.' It was, to an extent, new to her as well, but the basics were already ingrained in her mind.


And then came the cabin assignments. Belle perched on the edge of the table, chewing on the rest of her apple as she listened to what obviously was the camp leader, wondering who she was to share a cabin with. Not bothering to check it yet, she grimaced at the mention of a traditional dance. Not Belle's favourite thing to do.

She turned back to Nick. 'You any good at dancing?'
Nick gulped and said a bit lost for words "Yeah, something like that. But i don't think you'll embarrass yourself if there is singing at the campfire." Truth to be told he had never heard her sing so he had no idea if she was right about her singing abilities. Nick figured that maybe he had pushed her a little to far so he said "I don't want you to do anything you don't want. I just thought that singing could be fun."

It was with some relief that the subject changed to Brownies and basic skills. Remembering something he asked "Do you get to learn first aid too? How to bandage cuts and wounds? A distant cousin of mine said something about that in a letter."Nick turned his attention up front as the camp leader emerged from the back of the cabin with their cabin assignments and camp information..

Formal dance?????

Nick didn't know if he was supposed to smile or not. Dancing was something that he had avoided doing so far in his years at Hogwarts and now he had to do it at camp. It was not that he wasn't good at dancing it was just not something he usually did in public. Nick glanced sideways at Belle saying [b"Umm. Good at dancing? I think i'm good,but i don't really know. I guess it depends on the dance. How about you?"

As he heard a familier voice not too far off he looked around to see Melissa Cuneo. Looking up he gave Melissa a suprised smile saying "Hey, Melissa! I didn't know you were signed up for camp too." Who he was going to live with had to wait.
