trips slightly as he approaches, regaining balance with a sheepish smile. "Er, h-hi there! You come here often?"
her gaze meets Harry’s, a flicker of attraction sparking between them. "Oh, I'm sorry, I— " she stammers, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
nervously runs a hand through his hair No, it's okay. I'm Harry... Harry Potter.
smiles at him nice to meet you Harry.. I’m Ellie..
blushing slightly Nice to meet you too, Ellie. So, um, what brings you to this place? Are you a student at Hogwarts?
shakes head no.. I’m only here visiting my cousin for the weekend..
relieved Ah, just visiting. Well, it's always nice to have company. pauses, trying to find the right words So, um, what's your cousin's name?
chuckles softly My cousin’s name is Kaylie.. she’s in her 4th year here at Hogwarts.. leans against a tree
scratches his head nervously Uh, great. So, um, do you... do you have any magical abilities? I mean, I know everyone here does, but...
shrugs I don’t really.. I’m not very gifted in the magic department..
laughs softly Well, that's perfectly alright, Ellie. Magic isn't everything. It's the person that matters.
giggles I’ll tell my cousin that.. she’ll be thrilled to hear that..
grinning I'm sure she will be. takes a deep breath Ellie, I was wondering if you...
tilts her head, raising an eyebrow curiously Yeah?
stutters nervously Would... um... would you maybe want to hang out sometime? You know, we could go grab a butterbeer or something...
laughs Sure, I’d love that!
Harry and Ellie share a delightful Butterbeer date, getting to know each other better and forming a strong connection.
giggling But I gotta warn ya.. I’m not very good at keeping secrets.. so who knows what my cousin might say!
grinning Well, I guess I'll just have to keep my lips sealed about your secret. But promise me, if anything important comes up, you'll trust me with it, okay?
laughs softly I promise, Harry.. I’ll trust you with my secrets.. winks
smiling nervously Great! So, um, how about we meet up tomorrow evening by the lake? We can sit and talk under the stars. What do you think?
laughs softly That sounds perfect, Harry.. pauses But uh.. I gotta warn ya.. my cousin Kaylie tends to be a bit protective over me.. she might get a bit jealous that I am spending time with you..
flustered Oh, um, jealousy? W-well, I-I guess that's natural. I mean, c-cousins are usually quite protective of each other. But, um, I assure you, I won't let Kaylie intimidate us or anything like that.
laughs She won’t either.. she’s just a bit overly protective sometimes..
nods understandingly Well, I suppose it's natural for family members to feel protective of their loved ones. I mean, we all want to keep those we care about safe, right?
smiles warmly Yeah, it's just how things are sometimes... especially when you're part of a tight-knit family.
smiling reassuringly Don't worry, Ellie. I'll handle Kaylie if she gets too protective. Besides, I've got some tricks up my sleeve.
laughs Oh, I'm sure you do, Harry. Just remember, I'm only trying to look out for you too.
grinning mischievously Thanks, Ellie. I appreciate it. Now, let's head back to the castle. I have a few tricks to show you.
laughing softly Alright, lead the way, Harry. Just remember, no pranks!
grinning mischievously No pranks, I promise. But you might be surprised at what I have up my sleeve. Just wait and see.
raising an eyebrow playfully Ooh, intriguing. I can't wait to see what you've got in store for me. Lead the way, Harry.
starts walking towards the castle, winking at Ellie Well, let's not waste any more time, shall we? Time to show you some of my favorite pranks. You ready?
giggling excitedly Absolutely, Harry! Show me what you've got!
pauses and looks around Alright, here's the first one. Watch closely, Ellie. He discreetly slips a rubber band around the door handle and pulls it back, making it look like it's stuck See?
laughs Haha, that's clever, Harry! Can't wait to see what's next.
grinning mischievously Oh, this is just the beginning, Ellie. Wait until you see this! He suddenly pops up through a hidden trapdoor on the ceiling, revealing a secret room filled with magical artifacts Ta-da! Welcome to my secret hideout!
