"Perhaps, he iz busy wiz school." He suggested, smiling just a bit. Just like he had been this year, not really having the chance to write any of his friends. They understood though. Triwizard Tournament and all. He better write a novel length letter to make it up though.
Pushing his slightly fluffy-ish hair to the side and away from his eyes, something suddenly had caught his attention.
Well that was a rather nice looking owl. With a letter for Iris it seemed. Smiling, Noel settled back onto the pumpkin, scooping down just the slightest and wrapping his jacket closer around himself.
Iris will no doubt read it, so he'd be patient of course.
Glancing at the blond haired girl out of the corner of his eye after a moment or two of skimming the pumpkin patch and beyond, Noel smiled when it seemed she was tracing something on the letter.
When she spoke, a chuckle escaped him before he gestured to the letter. "Iz zat from ze boy? Ze one zat left?"
Perhaps he knew they were talking about him. Sort of that is.
Iris sighed and nodded. School. Yes, that was probably the reason why Aaron hadn't been writing to her...
"Hmm.... Probably." She really hoped that he WAS busy with school... and that he'd not just forgotten about her.
Because that would be awful. And mean.
As she looked over the letter, Iris smiled properly for the first time in ages. It just made her happy to know that Aaron hadn't forgotten about her; even if his excuse sucked. He'd still written.
Smiling at Noel's laugh, Iris nodded at the older boy's question.
"Oui... It's from Aaron." She uncrossed her legs, and then glanced back to the piece of parchment in her hands.
"He said he's coming home for the Holidays... I didn't think he would be." she said, looking Noel in the eyes. That line was probably the most important thing that Aaron'd written in the whole letter. It made her smile than any other part of the letter.
She folded the letter up, and put it back into it's envelope, before looking over to the French boy again.
"You excited for the Tournament?" She asked, perking up a little; wondering what it would be like to be in Noel's position.
Scary, probably. And exciting... It was just a shame that she'd never be able to get this opportunity. The Twiwizard Tounament's every three years, right? So she'd have just left, by the time that Durmstrang or Beauxbatons held it.
It was a shame, really. Noel was just lucky, to have been born when he was. The same for Raiden and Vladimir, and all the other Champions.
