Reed headed down to Hogsmeade by herself with nothing better to do. She wasn't sure if it was just her illness or if it really was cold outside, but anyhow she was freezing. She had already been in most of the shops with nothing to show of it. She wasn't in the mood for chocolate Frogs or a nice drink and didn't have any need for the other stores. Reed walked through the streets humming to herself.

They say a man with one arm and one good lung is a broken tool at best. I aim to prove them wrong.

Liam was walking, not noticing anyone around him as he was thinking about something. He was chosen as the Gryffindor Keeper, yet he had doubts. He knew his left lung was damaged, so he knew that would hinder him. His thoughts were cut short when he bumped into Reed from the side. He landed on his backside and was embarassed beyond belief. "S-Sorry.....I...wasn't watching...where I was... going." he said, getting up using only his right arm to help himself up.

Reed felt a sharp pain from her back. Something had hit her. For a moment she was paralyzed from the pain. She bit down on her lip to keep from crying out. There goes yet another bruise, she thought to herself blaming only her Leukemia. When the pain subsided, Reed turned around. There was a boy on the ground and she smiled apologetically. "Don't worry about it I should've been paying more attention." She said holding out her hand to help him up. He looked like he was struggling when he got up using only one arm.
Reed had seen him before around the Gryffindor Common Room, but she didn't know his name. "I'm Reed. Who are you?" She asked politely.

Liam thought that Reed would have been angry, but he was surprised. She had offered to help him up and he accepted the help. "Thanks.." he said, sounding nervous. Everyone in Gryffindor seemed so friendly. Why was that? "Oh....uh....my name...is Liam..Please forgive....me for my....speaking...I am not...quite used to english.." he said, his face slightly red from embarrassment.

Reed noted the broken english. "Really?" She asked curiously. "What are you used to speaking, then?" She asked with wide eyes. An excited smile spread across her face as she waited for the answer. She had no intention of being rude, but sometimes she speaks without thinking...or realizing it. That was what her brother was for, to correct her mistakes but he was nowhere to be found.

Liam heard Reed's question about what language he was used to. "Sorry...I'd... rather not....say..." he said, hoping not to have to tell her. He had already let the fact slip when he spoke to Dru.

Reed's cheeks were tainted pink. "Oh..right..I'm sorry, I probably shouldn't have asked." She said slightly disappointed. Reed changed the subject. "Are you new here at Hogwarts?" She asked brightly. Reed tugged on her sleeves. Ever since she got sick again she had been self-conscious of her dark heavy bruises and always kept them hidden.

Liam wondered why Reed was blushing. "I....don't blame...you for being...curious.." he said, forgiving her. He then heard her next question and nodded, not risking him slipping his language out. He was curious as to why Reed adjusted her sleeves, but adjusted only his left so it did not look like nothing was occupying it.

Reed squinted. The sun appeared to be coming out from behind the clouds and aiming right at her eyes. "Do you like it here?" She asked to make small talk. She remembered her first day at Hogwarts, only a couple of years ago. She had been so excited to finally be allowed to come but it soon became work screening what news got to her mother and what was best kept away.

Liam thought about this question. Did he like it here? He was unsure because he did not get used to being with hundreds of others in what seemed to be a competition. "Well....I can say...that it is better...than back home.." he said, smiling a bit.

Reed raised her eyebrows. She had to bite her lip to keep from asking something that would more than likely come out in a bad way. Even though the sun was out, it was still a bit cold...to her at least. "I was thinking about getting something to drink. A butterbeer, maybe. It's so cold today.." Reed said surveying the deceivingly bright sky. "Would you care to join me?"

Liam heard Reed's comment about it being cold. A slight shiver escaped from his body. "I...agree..." he said, rubbing his left arm out of reflex. "Oh....of course..." he said to her question about him joining her to get a drink. He had never had butterbeer, but had seen many of the adults back home drink it, so he was unsure if he was a proper age.

Reed smiled. "Good. I know just the place." She said brightly. "It's called the Three Broomsticks, if you haven't yet been there. " Reed said leading the way to the Three Broomsticks.
