"Thanks, woulda done it myself but its kinda illegal" I said making small talk which I'm utter shit at.

"I've had lots of practice, dragons, amazing as they are can be a tad rough, ya'know especially when they're grumpy," He laughed

"You work with them?" I gasp see I've wanted to work with magical creatures for most of my life weather it be being a medi-vet or a trainer or anything so long as I could work with creatures and hopefully help them in one way or another, but I'd never seriously considered going into dragon training but now I can hopefully ask Charlie 'bout it so I can get some real answers and see if it would be a good fit for me.

"Yeah! It's my dream job, I work down in Romania there's a huge dragon reserve there, one of the biggest in the world actually. It's a bit far from home but it works." He excitedly shared.

"I've-" I began before the twins from earlier interrupted

"She's been here like five minutes Charlie-" Fred began

"and your already getting cozy!" George finished not missing beat, no delay or anything it was so fluid it could have been just one person talking. Talk about creepy as hell, but also pretty damn cool.

Their words stung, though not nearly as much as would coming from my family. Mind you they didn't know and I wasn't exactly planning on telling them, but did I really want to fool them? Charlie especially he is the other person involved, they seem nice and I don't want to ruin it... you know what I'll let Charlie respond first see how that goes.

"Oi! You lot know perfectly well that I have no desire to date!" He responded his voice lacking the carefree attitude to it that I was accustomed to even after only having one short conversation with him he seemed like the kind of person to mostly be carefree and fun.

Knowing he wasn't interested in dating helped what I was about to say.

"As nice as Charlie is, all of you are really nice but I'm not going to date anyone, never will." I swallow down my butterflies.

"Never will?"
"You married or something?"
"A nun?" Fred and George ask in their unique interchangable way going from George to Fred and back to George.

Before I could respond Mrs. Weasley snapped "Boys! Mind your manners! Abellone's relationships are entirely her business!"

" Uh.. thank you Mrs Weasley no one's stuck up for me about that before..." I trail off at the end of my thanks seeing everyone's shocked looks and the boy with black hair look almost... understanding?

"Oh dear it's not a worry." She seemed to have a motherly demeanour towards everyone at the table including me.

"It means a lot to me Mrs Weasley thank you." I loosely grin my bad memories pushed to the back of my mind for the time being.

"Hey Abellone come meet my friends!" Ron called over probably referring to the black haired boy and brown hair girl, and by doing so broke the once slightly tense mood that hung over the obnoxiously large Weasley table. What a God send.
