"I will only join you fine ladies only if my little sister Sammi can come with me." He didn't want to leave Sammi by herself plus maybe if she went with him he'd not get attacked by the firing squad.
Sarah kept her smile firmly in place as Nate recognised her and spoke.Although he seemed cautious.Maybe he just wasn't used to her speaking directly to him without Mariel around.
"I'm fine thanks,Nate.How are you?" she enquired,keeping up the pleasent conversation and glancing over to his compartment mate.Truth was she was still shaken after what happened over the summer, but she wasn't going to go into all that now.
"Oh of course she can come! We have some room on the seats,floor is a little crowded with owl cages,though,so you'll have to mind where you step" Quote:

Trying to break the ice, Sammi held up a green lollipop.
"Would you like one? This one is my favorite. It is kiwi." She genuinely smiled at the girl. Although a pureblood, her mother always taught her to be nice to people, no matter who they were. Sammi hated arguing and fighting.
Sarah smiled in the direction of the young girl as she too spoke,offering her a lollipop.....how sweet.Taking one she placed it in her pocket for later.After the choking with the lemondrop better to be safe.
"Thank you very much,I love kiwi.And it's nice to meet you Sammi,I'm Sarah a friend of Mariel's." She stepped to one side and held the door back so they could pass,before heading back to the compartment housing her old and new friends.
"Look who I found,Mariel," she beamed,sliding the door back and entering once more.
"Nathaniel!...and his little sister Sammi.I asked them to come and join us,you don't mind do you?"
