"Oh, what else was there? Well, I did gymnastics, athletics, netball and swimming," Laura ticked them off on her fingers a she spoke. "Did you ever play any muggle sports?"

"Horse riding," Natka smiled in response, her eyes lighting up at the mention of horses. "I even have my own horse, you know. That's the thing I miss about home most when I'm at school; riding. I took part in my first jumping competition this year, too, and i even got first place!"

Pausing, Natka coloured slightly as she realised how much that sounded like bragging. And that was the last thing she wanted to do. She was just so happy that she'd managed to win she couldn'thelp hsaring the news with her friends...

You really need to tone that down unless you want to be self-absorbed, she thought to herself.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it to sound like bragging, I'm just so happy about it, that's all..." Natka added afer a moment, not exactly meeting Laura's eyes.

"Anyway, lacrosse sound cool, although I never played it, myself. I used to love netball, though," she said with a small smile.
