Skye looked up as yet another girl joined them. Good lord, all this invasion of space would take some getting used to. Skye attempted a smile at the newcomer. "Hi. I'm Skye Altheim." She chose to avoid the remark about Enya, who was sitting right there after all.
"Umm, it's...nice to meet you," said Skye, not altogether truthfully. She was so incredibly nervous about coming to a new school, on top of being shy to start with, and so far she'd recieved a less-than-warm welcome.
Several conversations followed, in which Skye just watched and listened, afraid of getting caught in the middle of something. She became mor confused by the second, and kept her mouth shut to hide it. | Carin noticed that the older girl seemed rather quiet, as if she were unsure of herself. Smiling at her, she offered her the bowl with the pudding. "Try, its brilliant," she suggested.
Skye seemed almost as nervous as... well, as a firstie. Maybe she hadn't been to Hogwarts before? "Are you a transfer student?" Carin asked after a moment, unable to stem her curiosity. Quote:

Enya jumped a little, she had forgotten Skye was sat with them, she had been so quite. It was unnerving. She now turned her head to look her up and down. Hmm, Older then her, but shy - like she had no friends. She smirked. After a few moments she nodded her head in responce. "Like-wise" She said, it wouldn't do to be horrid to this like timid girl. She looked new. Enya herself would personally help her. Enter. Evil. Face. Here. She was going to enjoy this year so much.
Enya leant forward, ignoring the other girl's she was with for a moment. Her gaze fixed on Skye, "Tell me a bit about youself" She said in her sweetest voice. Those who knew her best would know she was faking...and the only girl here would be Louisa. Enya shot her a glare to tell her NOT to tell, then looked back at Skye and smiled. | Quote:

Unnerved by the younger girl's very sudden chnage of attitude, Skye stared at Enya hard for a moment, as though expecting the girl to laugh and say that she was only kidding. When she did not, Skye decided she would answer.
"Well, I'm an only child. My mum just got a new job here, so we just moved from Ireland a few weeks ago. I'm half Irish and half French." That would do for now, right? Oh how Skye hated talking. | Carin narrowed her eyes in Enya's direction; her sudden change of attitude was beyond suspicious, she was obviously faking it. Carin had seen her mother wear the same expression and voice every time her mother-in-law paid them a visit; although her parents were sure Carin did not know this, she was well aware of the hate between her mother and her grandmother. She had eavesdropped on enough conversations and rows between her parents to know the truth. Sometimes she thought that her father was the only person her mother was ever honest around.
The point was, there was that same malicious manipulative glint in Enya's eyes now, and Carin decided to put a stop to it. She had hated that part of her mother's personality. Before she turned to Enya though, she heard Skye's response. "Half French, seriously? My grandmother lives in France, I send like every summer there," she grinned at the older girl, happy to have found something in common. She wasn't really sure how to encourage Skye to be a bit more talkative and social, but she was doing her best to be friendly to her anyways. "And what about you? Why don't you share a bit of your precious golden history with us too?" Carin asked Enya sarcastically yet still sweetly, deciding to feed her back her own medicine. She could be as sly as anyone; Merlin knows Carin learned from the best at home over the years. Quote:

Louisa could notice the other two students Enya obviously was sitting with. Well, this was new to Louisa. Enya had many friends, wow! There are tolerant people in this school. Hehehe. She smiled at both and introduced herself with a smile, "I'm sorry I burst into your conversation like this. I'm Louisa by the way."
"Thanks." She answered her, "Is this cup for someone?" She pointed at the golden cup stood in front of her empty. Was she too excited to see Enya that she forgot to bring her cup? Ouch! This friendship is going to nowhere Louisa could see.
She knew that Enya was acting that way because of the last time she met her. She kind of opened her heart a bit... just to shut it right after that. Heh. So Enya-ish. "Have you found your notebook?" She started a conversation...hopefully? | Quote:

Skye looked up. The gilr who seemed to be so much at odds with Enya was now talking. Were people here always this chatty? "I'm Skye," she said.
Skye decided she'd better eat something. She reached for the plate of fettuccine alfredo, her favorite Italian dish. She piled her plate with a nice big heap of it and started eating. | Quote:

This young girl murmured something, and if Louisa wasn't paying attention she probably wouldn't hear it. "Nice to meet you Skye!" She said alittle bit too loud. Whatever! The voices of everybody else were loud enough anyways. "What year are you in, Skye?" Louisa asked. Was she supposed to know by herself? Like a badge attached to the girl's chest or something? She looked carefully as not to sound so silly in her first encounter.
"You of course can tell that I'm a first year student." She giggled proudly. She needed to start a conversation, wasn't she? Yeah she had to. It was her usual attitude, rambling around ^_^ | Carin listened almost half heartedly to the conversation between Louisa and Skye - they seemed to oblivious to the situation, to Enya. But nice nevertheless, just... innocent.
Or just plain ignorant, Carin could never tell the difference. "First year's great," she told Louisa with a smile. Not that she was speaking from experience, but still. Quote:

Enya felt Skye staring at her - who wouldn't? - but she ignored it. There was time later to help her with her fashion. She seriously needed help. Enya shook her head, but pushed the thought away, like she said, time later for that. Now other buisness needed to be sorted. She was going to have the best fun this year ever. So much better then her first year. Gone with the quite, slightly coming out of one's shell - 11 year old. Now with a extreamly pretty, confident 12 year old.
Enya put her full attention to the girl, the more she knew about her the better. She smiled. "Half Irish and half french?" She asked fully interested now. "Interesting. Im just English" She told the girl. It wouldn't hurt to tell her that much! She smiled and reached for her drink. She drank some before turning slightly to Louisa.
Enya smiled slightly at hearing Louisa hastly introduce herself. Maybe she thought she had been friends with them for a while. She laughed in her head, no, but she wouldn't correct her. Afterall she hadn't asked. She smiled at Louisa - her sorta best friend. It hurt her to admit that one! Enya took another few bites of her dinner, finding herself hungry again. Hmm...
She nodded at Louisa's word but rolled her eyes at her second one. Of course! Who's else's would i be? Santa Claus? Although she didn't say that out loud. "Well yeah...Captain Obvious" She saidd rolling her eyes again, her voice sarcastic.. Seriously!? She shook her head in disbelief.
At the mention of her notebook she looked at Louisa. How could she remember that!? She asked. It was more then a week..After that afternoon, she hadn't seen or heard of Louisa. Thank God. But it was still kind of her to remember, although she wouldn't say that! Instead she said inbetween eating, "Yeah. Somewhere" With no indication of adding further.
Enya continued to eat and drink while she listened to Louisa and Skye talking. Making friends. | Carin noticed the look Enya gave Louisa, and her observing the two girls talking; she imagined that Enya's thoughts were similar to her own, marvelling at the girls' ignorance. But Enya also seemed much more malicious than Carin; she acted like their friend so she could use them and manipulate them.
Perhaps it wasn't really her place to say anything, but Carin was never one to hold her tongue and mind her own business. She was more of the provoking kind. Well, and being provoked, but that was a weakness Carin did not like to admit to.
She leaned over to the jug with pumpkin juice and picked it up to refill her cup, but her hand slipped and the liquid went cascading onto the tabletop and the robes of the student sitting opposite her...
...who just happened to be Enya. "Oh gosh, I'm so sorry!" Carin exclaimed clamping a hand to her mouth to hide her smirk but managing to sound sincere nevertheless. That's so clumsy of me, I really didn't mean to! Here, let me help, there's some napkins..." she babbled on, handing over some blue paper napkins and dabbing at the tablecloth. |
