Maybe when they met in Diagon Alley? In fact, she couldn't remember anything about what happened there. 'That's...weird.' she thought, glancing at the fire with a frown for a moment.
"I'm really sorry about your sister." she said in a quiet whisper, squeezing his hands softly and looking up at him. He didn't seem upset or anything when talking about his sister, but maybe... Mentally shaking her head so get out of the thoughts that would upset her, she gave him a warm and comforting smile, moving forward and hugging him. "I love that you are the only one to call me Rose. Destiny just mentioned something the other day about it, and it made me curious."
''Thanks. It's really alright now. I got the necessary treatment and mom said she died bravely. She was a Gryffindor and so i'm proud to be one...though mom is a little bit annoyed by that as she stated in her letter.'' He laughed when he remembered the reply he wrote to her. He was going to be punished for that once he was back from Hogwarts but it was funny, so did worth it. Josh was happy that he was not a Ravenclaw of course, if they were all like his mom, their common room was probably like some smaller library for the school. Boring. Fatally boring.
Hopefully he was not living in a library and he had Rose, so school was great unlike he had thought of it before. Maybe he would not have taken her attention if he was a Ravenclaw, would he? Making this a mental note to ask her later on, he stared into her beautiful hazel eyes and his small smile widened when he hugged her back.
''And i'm glad to hear that i'm still the only one to call you Rose and it even took Destiny's attention. Otherwise i think i might feel the need to give you a funny nickname to be the only one call you with a different name.''
