Watching her run off, Protege was confused. What had just happened? Then, in a rush, it all came to him, and he understood what happened. "I knew being around magic made odd things happen...but this is weird." Then, thinking even deeper, he smiled. "No, this isn't weird. This is a stronger force." Paying for his owl, Protege walked out of Eeylop's Owl Emporium, whistling. Then, he ran off, following Ashlle.

Ashlle stopped when she saw him follow her. What was happening? Why was she running? A better question would be, why did she kiss him? She was 11 for goddess sake!

Seeing her stop, Protege slowed down and walked until he was standing near her. "Okay, can you please explain why you ran? I am a tad bit confused on the details." Smiling, he calmly waited for her answer.

"I don't know." She told him in a shy voice. "I think I'm too young to be kissing 13 year old boys, I suppose."
Her owl was somewaht ruffled at the running she had done & Ashlle nelt down & opened tithe cage door to pet her & get her to relax.
"I feel so, out of sorts." She told Protege.

Protege, seeing that his owl was also ruffled from the run, opened the cage and let the owl circle his head. "I'm not suprised your out of sorts. I was disorientated also, although while you ran, I stood still for a few seconds. Besides, it's a power beyond your control it seems, although it is an emotion or feeling rather than a force. When a stronger force pulls or pushes you, you go with it. Do you understand now?" he asked her, looking at his owl circling his head.

If you are trying to say you like me as well, than that was a very roundabout way of doing it!" Fluffed Ashlle stiffly. But then she smiled. After all, 13 wasn't very old either.
"Want to get some Ice cream at Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor?" she asked shyly.

"Sure, let's get some ice cream." As they headed to the ice cream parlor, Protege continued talking. "I understand that was an odd way of saying I also like you, but it was also a good explanation to help you understand why you acted the way you did. Besides, it made me sound smarter." He laughed at that.

Ashlle laughed.
"Your silly Protégé!" she told him. Then she grew serious for a moment.
"Umm I may have already asked you this, but do you still have family or not?" she was very careful with her words for she didn't want to upset him. She knew the pain of never knowing your family & she had also heard of people who had turned there backs on their family & realized that this could be painful also.
Still she should meet Protégé’s mother & father if she could. Society called for it.

A sudden change came over Protege at this question. "I don't really know them all that well. I live at their house, I eat at their house, but I keep to myself unless neccessary. I used to spend a lot of time with my dad when I was younger, but we just sorta went our separate ways I guess." Protege looked down at this. "I know they are my parents, and I love them, but that's about it. I try and handle everything on my own."

"Ahhhhh," Said Ashlle believing, for what he'd said that she would not be able to see Protégé’s parents. "Mine are Dead, the whole family in fact. So I guess we'll have to figure this out by ourselves."
She would have liked to have a definitive ruling form someone else. "Something along the Lines of 'you can or cannot go out with this boy' but She supposed that it really wasn't necessary. She could always look to see if his family was in 'Great Family's of the Wizarding World as Hers & Ashlee's was.
"Here it is." She said coming to the end of the Ally. Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor stood before them in all its multiple-flavors-in-one-scoop glory.
"What flavor are you going to get, Protégé?" she asked as she sat down at a table & picked up a menu list.

Protege, liking things to be simple, just thought of the common ice cream types. "Oh, probably just vanilla." Looking at her, he could tell she was still wondering about something. "What's on your mind, Ashlle? And don't say nothing, because I can tell from your eyes that something is bugging you."

Ashlle giggled.
They don't have 'just vanilla' you silly pants silly head! Florean Fortescue's only has complicated flavors. They are kind of like .... " she searched her mind for a Muggle comparison " 'Ben & Jerrys'. I think Florean's has Crazy Vanilla with Vanilla chunks in it, but that's as close as your going to get.
When he asked what was on her mind she sighed, & said:
"I know you don't believe in Societies rules but I really do and they say out Parents must approve of our .... liking each other. Since I have none and you don't speak to yours no one is here to say 'she has bad blood don't mingle with her' or 'he's of good stock, you've made a good choice' and I just feel vulnerable. What if people are staring and saying we aren't suited for each other?"
She looked around as if she could see them pointing fingers and wished to have the ground swallow her up.

Protege was startled by this. "I think my parents will be willing to talk about this. Anyway, if complete strangers are judging us like this, then they don't deserve our attention." He looked around, looking for odd glances that may have given her this idea.

Ashlle smiled at him.
"You are so brave Protégé! You should be in Gryffindor with me" and she took his hand and squeezed it.
Just then Mr. Fortescue himself came over to take their orders.
"What'll you have today, Young master and mistress?" he asked.
“I shall have a Rictosempra Crunch Sundae with Caramel, walnuts, whipped cream & a strawberry on top.” Decided Ashlle

Protege smiled, knowing his order would probably confuse Mr.Fortescue. "I'll have the closest you can get to regular, Muggle Vanilla."
Turning back to face Ashlle, he smiled again. "To be honest, I don't know what house I should have been in. But I was selected as Slytherin, so I guess I am really cunning. Some things in life just happen, and you can't explain why, sort of like a few seconds ago."
