"I don't have any brothers or sisters," Grace interjected, "Father never actually wanted children to begin with..." she remembered the endless lectures her father had given her on how he had tried to convince her mother to abort the baby. She quickly surpressed the thought. "So, how're your parents? Are they as nice as you are?" she asked with a smile.

Girty laughed to herself.
"Mum and Dad? Well depends how nice you think I'm. They are great. They support us in what ever we want to do. Dad for example a great wizard gave it all up to be with mum and to live in the muggle world. You need to meet them."

"I really do," Grace smiled. "It's important to have a good family to go home to." Grace had convinced herself of that fact long ago.

Girty started blankly at the sky. What could she say?
"We do not need to worry about that just yet. We have a nice long time at Hogwarts to look forward to."

"Yes," Grace agreed, "and we need to concentrate on that thing we call school work stuff." She waved a hand loosly in the air. "It's going to be a long time before we can lounge about."

"WHAT?" Girty shot up into the air. "What do you mean long time? You mean we should not be lounging around now. Well I'm in trouble."
She laughed and lay back down again.

Grace giggled at Girty, "never take you seriously, I remember, and there are no monsters from hell about so I'm in the clear." She smied and continued finding interesting shapes in the clouds.

Girty laughed.
"I knew that statement would come back to haunt me. Well you never know i could conjure a monster from hell."

Grace laughed, "that's as crazy as trying to find a troll!" She was feeling better, happier. She really enjoyed spending time with Girty, she was a true friend.

Girty tutted.
"I'm still convinced i could find a troll. They are not clever enough to avoid detection altogether."
Girty enjoyed talking too Grace. They laughed so much together it made Girty enjoy her time at Hogwarts even more.

Grace laughed. "And when you find one, it'll squish you and eat you on toast, yum!" She giggled at the idea.

Girty thought a long time about the idea of herself being on toast.
"It would have to be a very big slice of toast. It would take an age to cook as well.... Unless you had a really big fire and had it on a turn table so you could flip the sides."
She lay in silence for a bit then thought about the sue of magic.
"Or you could shrink me and use normal sized bread. Would stop the hassle."

Grace laughed, "all this talk of eating and toast is making me hungry!" She rubbed her tummy and heard it growl at her.

Girty placed her hand in her pocket and searched for her rations. As she pulled her hand out it was clutched around a pack of Bertie Botts every flavored beans. She chucked the pack at Grace and laughed.
"I hope you like them. only food i have on me today. But i suppose you could eat the grass."
Girty reached beside her and pulled a load out of the ground. Shaking off the dirt she placed it in her mouth.

Grace smiled, "not much into rabbit food, I'm afraid!" She picked up the beans, "but these I'll have!" She smiled and opened the bag. She reached in and took out an orange bean. She put it in her mouth and chewed, "yum! Zest!"
