(Oh, thanks ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) ) Pat understood Matty's message and started walking beside her. "Well... I really like Astronomy, but I can't wait 'till I can take C.O.M.C. I really like animals, you know? 'Course... that makes sense, 'cuz I grew up on a farm, but..." He said. Then he realized that he was rambling again and immediately shut up. "How about you?"

(Your welcome ;D Nah, its alright, i do check it, but after my huge threads ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) ) So the boy grew up on a farm eh? Cool. Matty thought smiling to the ground. She listened and thought he was quite interesting really. "Yeah, Astronomy is great. And i know this sounds lame, but i'm startin' to like H.O.M aswell. Just because our Professor is a wacky one." she sniggered at the thoguht of theor crazy Professor, that she had seen wearing a freaky hat once in class. Though relating back about his farm, Matty then asked "So you grew up on a farm?"

"He seems fun." Pat replied. Then she mentioned the farm. Ok, I'll try to keep this brief. he thought, worried he might ramble some more. "Yep. It's a muggle farm. Been in my Dad's family for six generations. We raise sheep and horses. It's alot of fun. I'm mostly in charge of the horses." Hey, that wasn't too bad, Pat.

"Sounds like it would be great to live on a farm and look after hourses" Matty spoke. The boy had cut it short, though maybe once he got into something, he was intence, and at this time, he may have thought it to be rambling. Though Matty wouldn't have minded if he had. Just our of interest, she then asked "So are you fully muggle?" not wanting to sounds rude. She never liked the terms that some others used, so 'fully muggle' should've fit.

"Yeah, it's pretty cool." Pat said, kind of homesick. "I'm a half-blood, actually." He said, thinking how he may have made his background a little confusing to her. "How about you?" He asked, wondering what her life was like growing up.

That made sence, after all Matty knew that there was very few 'wizard' farms. Growing up on a muggle farm would be great, althoguh she liekd her hosue just the way it was. "Well my mum was a witch, my dad is a muggle." refiringg to the terms. Yes, her mother was no longer with them, and yeah, her dad still lived with her. Now things were not so tender to talk about, her mum being gone and all. "And i just like in a cottage house in one of the forests of Old London."

"That's really cool." Pat said. "I've always wanted to go to London. No clue why I haven't made it before this year, though." Then another question struck him. "Do you have any brothers or sisters?"

"Yeah, so where have you come from?" Matty asked refiring to where he lived other then Hogwarts. Then hearing his other question, she then answered "No, im just an only child. What about you? Do you have any brothers or sisters?" she loved getting to know more and more about people. Just even knowing how many family members made them more friendly like. Then as they both passed the suit of armor she had hit, Matty turned and held her fist up to it "Damn you!" she spoke, even though if might have sounded dorky.

"I've got one sister, Maggie. She's pretty cool." He said, thinking of all the pranks he had pulled on her back at home. "I'm from right outside of Newport, Wales. About five minutes away, actually." He said, to answer Matty's other question.
Pat couldn't help but laugh when Matty cursed out the suit of armor. Pat liked this girl, and had a feeling they'd be friends for a long time.

"Is she older or younger then you?." Matty asked, directing at his sister. Living on a farm with a sibling would just put icing on the cake. "That pretty handy." she also addding, meaning the his farm was 5 minutes away. Then noticing his sudden outbreak of laughter, she couldn't help but laugh harder herslef. It was not every day that Matty met someone, just from out of the blue. Pat was cool, now she even considered him as a friend, and if he was indeed that, she also hoped that they would be friends for a long time.

"She's younger than me. She's nine, actually. She'll be coming here, too." He said. As they kept walking, Pat remembered something.
"One of our dogs just had five puppies." It was random, he knew, but he was dying to tell someone since it happened. If anyone, it may as well be a girl, right."And my favorite mare is gonna have a foal in a few weeks. I'm probably gonna have to leave then, though..." Pat was really excited for Mae's baby to come around. He leaned over to Matty and whispered jokingly "Make sure not to tell any of the other horses she's my favorite, though, okay?"

"That'll be fun for you." Matty said with a wink towards Pat. Then as he started talking about his pet dog recently haveing some puppies, she sighed. Matty only had a cat which was normal, other wise she had an owl names Zeal. Once he had then told her about his horse, she then thought Aww this guys cool. At least he isn't a totall show-off . Then as Pat learned over top her ear, she then sniggered before saying in a joking voice "Don't worry i wont.." but then turning her walk into a jog she said "But you might have to stop me telling everyone else that you like horses!"
Running down the corridor, Matty became serveral metres away. Then hiding behind a suit of armor, sure it was a bit cheesy, but his recation would be funny.

"I'm glad I can keep my secret safe with you." Pat replied. Then the race was on. He jogged down the hall after her. Pat saw Matty hide behind a suit of armor, so he hid on the other side of it.
"Race you 'round the corridor." He whispered between the wall and the suit of armor, challenging her. "Just in a square. All the turns'll be to the right. First one back to this suit of armor wins."

Smiling at him through the ting gap between the suit of armor, Matty replied "Sure, i think i gettcha." Dropping down her bag, she then took around the cornner like a bullet. Yeah of corse she was fast, she had beat Jynx in a race down by the lake, and yeah she did run every so often in a race in her home town. So now it wasn't like Pat should be ashamed of losing, but then again Matty didn't know what she was up for. Flying down the corridor, she passed one suit of amor.
"Slow down there lass!" Matty heard a small painting of a rather porky wizard shout. Now the race was on...

"Okay. One, two... HEY!" Pat bulted down the corridor after Matty, Running past the criticizing painting. He was now a few yards behind her, and catching up. He wasn't sure how long they'd be racing, and he remembered that he was running too fast for the distance. He let up a little bit and let Matty get ahead a bit, not too much, though.
As Pat rounded the corner behind Matty, he noticed that it shouldn't be too far of a run, and caught back up to Matty, childishly teasing her by sticking his tongue out "Mllleeeeeeeeehhh!"
