Drew nudged Saiyuri in the arm and leaned in towards her ear, "Look at that new girl, she looks a bit old to be sitting at the First years end don't you think?"
"Poor girl, the Gryffie retches are shunning her. And the Gryffies wonder why we hospitable Ravenclaws dislike them so! They can be so rude!" Saiyuri ranted on.
"Calm down Sai, it's just a Gryffie, why do you care so much about them being rude to that specific one?"
Hitting Drew's arm she replied, "Because Drew, she's new. Them treating her that way will just give her the assumption that everyone is cruel here. We MUST take her under our wing and school her better."
"Don't get ahead of yourself Sai, how do you know she can even handle being with us and the Slythies over there?"
"Hmm.. we could always give her.... the test."
"Sai, it's her first day! Don't be so cruel."
"It's not being cruel Drew! She's gotta learn the ropes sometime, and why not from our perspective and our seniority!"
"She's a 4th year.. you really think she'll be able to pull it off?"
"Have a little confidence, I think she'll be fine. And if I'm wrong, I'll do your homework for a week."
"Deal b-" Drew began before he was interupted by Saiyuri.
"BUT! If I win, you do my homework for a week PLUS carry my books during that time. And since our class schedule is the same, it won't be a problem now would it."
"Oh fine then, have it your way. I still say she can't do it.." Drew chuckled as he picked at the ham that was on his plate. Drew, due to being not much of a meat eater, ate it only occasionally when Saiyuri made him. Unfortunately, the first feast was always the worst because there wasn't much to choose from.
"Will you eat that already! Jeepers Drew, you're worse than my sister!"
"Where is Lucia anyway? Paris or Tokyo?"
"She's going to London for her first trimester, then Paris, than she'll finish the year in Tokyo."
"Here anything on how she's doing?"
"Ehh, mum said she was okay, but who knows for sure. I won't really know until Lu-chan sends me her letter."
"Expecting any charms this time?"
"Of course! But I can't get it until it's closer to the end of her first trimester because she isn't sure what she's already given me and she needs to go over everything with the man who runs the shop."
"What, does she have a record there?"
"Duh, my parents made her an account in every shop closest to her schools, that way she'll have everything on record and she won't buy the same thing twice."
Drew stared and Saiyuri in disbelief and mumbled, "Lucky rich kids..."
"Hey! I'm not a rich kid! My father just knows how to invest in Muggle companies as well as in Wizarding companies. He's quite good in the stock department."
Drew rolled his eyes as he finally began to cut up the ham and eat it. Saiyuri smiled and sighed at Drew, knowing he was simply unhappy due to his parents cutting his allowance this year due to his huge spending sprees the previous year. As she finished her plate, she studied the new girl. 'Well, she seems decent enough, I wonder how she'll do..'
