As Larissa walked in, she glared at one of the girls. The girl had smiled at Robert and begun to flutter her eyelashes.
"I wouldn't bother," Larissa whispered to the girl as she sat near her, "I'm part-veela."

The rest of the journey was enjoyable.
The two girls began chatting about presents they wanted and Larissa rolled her eyes at Robert in a Oh for goodness sake! sort of way.

(lol!)

Robert was used to trains. It was the plane he'd only been on once before he was worried about. He smiled to Laris and didn't notice one of the girls kept looking at him.
It wasn't long before the train came to a stop, and Robert nudged Laris, "We get off here" he announced, and stood up and stretched his legs.

Larissa stood up and stretched up high.
They walked off of the train and through to the main station where muggles were giving Larissa a strange look.
A small boy pointed up at her as he passed. Didn't she look muggle enough? What was it?
Larissa suddenly realised her eyes might have been changing from blue to grey.
Larissa held on to Robert's arm and said in casual tones.
"How do we get to the airport?"

Robert was aware muggles kept looking at Larissa, and he glanced to see her eyes changed colour. (hey! thats libbys talent! >:( ) "Don't worry. Just follow me" he replied. He tried hard to remember the way he'd come before, at the time, he had been on his own. "There" he pointed through a gap in the houses to an airport sign, and you could also now here them.

They made there way through the crowds of people, and finally managed to get into the airport. Robert took Larissa over to long queue, where they would have to wait. He noticed customers luggage was being taken and checked and wondered what they'd say when he said he didn't have any. He hadn't thought of that.

Larissa looked up at Robert's nervous face. Something was wrong.
She'd asked her friends about airports so she knew what to expect. Now Robert looked worried. it wasn't a good sign.
"What is it?" Larissa whispered to Robert, "What's wrong?"

Robert didn't take his eyes of the puzzling question but talked to Laris. "What do we tell them when they find we have no luggage? How about we don't have any because we're meeting our family when we get off?" he asked, keeping very much to the truth. His eyes scanned the whole airport. It was huge and made mostly of glass. metal and carpet. He kept his arm close so he didn't loose Larissa.

"Well.." Larissa said, wondering what sort of things muggles believed, "I suppose if worse comes to worse I could..." She smiled at Robert, "Turn on the charm?"

Robert grinned, and hugged her. He knew it wouldn't work but he loved her for trying. "C'mon" They moved down the line and were searched. Robert tried not to cringe, and found they were out of it before they knew it, and were heading through the corridor that connected to the plane.

The only thing Larissa had that the searchers shared puzzled looks over was her wand.
She grinned and her eyes began to twinkle.
Her wand was handed back and the searchers began to argue between themselves who would be a better husband for Larissa.
She giggled and eventually found herself sitting on the plane next to Robert.
"So.." She said, pushing any buttons she found, "How do these things fly?"

Robert was sat down, and he enjoyed the quick breeze bursted through the small hole in the back of the chair in front. He laughed and turned to Larissa. "Becarful what you press. Don't press this unless there's an emergancy" he said, tapping a red button above them. "They use the air and wind, and position its in to move streamline through. Something like that" he grinned. He wasn't sure himself, he just wanted to be out of there as soon as possible. Luckily for him, Larissa was next to the window. He leant back in his sseat comfortably. "You'd better get used to this, we have fifteen hours ahead of us" he yawned.

The plane began to take off and Robert had his eyes closed. He knew he had to do this again but for now it was bad enough. When they were safly in the air, Robert removed his seat belt and opened his eyes again. "We're on our way" he smiled. A woman with short spikey brunette hair walked past with a trolley, and Robert took his time looking over what they had to offer before deciding he actually didn't want anything. "How about you Laris?" he asked.

(lol...work on that! i expect a nice long posted reply xD )

Larissa didn't enjoy take off; several people had screamed and Larissa had squeezed Robert's arm in fear.
Now that they were cruising thousands and thousands of miles in the air Larissa watched clouds passing outside her window.
She heard Robert as if from far away.
"Hmm?" She said, turning to see the woman with the trolley. "I'm not having anything unless they've got chocolate frogs." Larissa looked over hopefully but all she saw was a full wrapper that read 'Freddo's Chocolate Frog'.
"Hmm," Larissa said, leaning over and pointing to it, what's that like?"
The woman gave her a strange look, "It's chocolate." She said grumpily.
Larissa smiled, "I'll have one of those then, please."
The woman passed the chocolate in it's wrapper to Larissa who smiled and handed the woman a galleon.
The air hostess stared at it for a moment, "Sorry, we only accept Euros."
Larissa looked confused and the woman handed back her money.
"They're only cheap," She said, showing some sympathy for the puzzled looking Larissa, "You can have that one free."
Larissa smiled and the woman mirrored it before pushing the trolly a little further and taking more orders.
Larissa unwrapped the chocolate excitedly.
When she'd opened it, the frog lay there, cartoon like and almost flat.
"Why isn't it moving?" She asked Robert, "Maybe the spells faded.."

Robert couldn't help laughing at Larissa all through the part where she tried to buy her "chocolate frog" and then ate it. "I'm sorry i should've warned you." he said, handing her a small heavy bag. He traded a few galleons into muggle money for her. "That's $50 alright. 100 pence in one euro." he said, wondering how much she would know about it.
He looked at the chocolate frog and answered, "If they moved, don't you think muggles would be a little, creeped out?" he laughed again. "They don't move honey." he said disappointedly. He would show his family few things when he got home, although there were a few things stopping him such as being underage, and his family might have some sort of panic attack or fit if they saw birds emerging out of his wand, not to mention the mess they'd make.

Larissa sighed and bit the frogs head off viciously.
She didn't understand any muggle money. She'd been raised to know how many Bronze Knuts to a Silver Sickle and how many Silver Sickles to the Galleon.
"If we ever get married," Larissa said, gulping down her mouthful of chocolate, "And we live in a muggle society, I'll let you handle the financial side." She grinned at him cheekily.
She would never live somewhere it was only muggles- she had plans.

The plane had been flying for 14 hours and Larissa had fallen asleep. Her head rested on Robert's shoulder, a thin red free blanket she'd been given lay across the front of her body.
Her hair was smooth and straight most of the journey when she was sleeping but at one point it perked up as though she was trying to use her charm on someone.
There was half an hour until landing and the window shutters were all opened, the lights dipped so there was only a small glow.
Larissa stirred and suddenly her eyes flashed open.
She was worried she'd gone deaf but it was merely the drop in pressure as the plane sped towards its landing point.

Robert grinned. He wouldn't particularly mind handling the financis, maybe she was right about him knowing more about it, although he wasn't too good at maths. "Oh thank you"

Robert had tried to fall asleep but couldn't. He turned his head keeping his body still and watched Laris sleep for a while. Robert wondered if he should look away as her eyes suddenly opened. "Welcome back" he teased. "Swallow" he said simply smiling. Robert was now able to lift his body back up in the chair and did so, "We're nearly there by the way. Are you cold?" he asked.

Larissa shook slightly, she'd taken her jacket off. "A bit." She said pulling it back on.
There was ding dong sound and a woman's voice asked them all to put their seat belts on because they were landing soon.
Larissa swallowed and immediately her ears became normal though a bit sore.

Larissa gripped Robert's hand as they sped towards the runway. A large bump and the fact that the plane told Larissa two things;
They had arrived and the pilot was terrible at landing.

Some time later, Larissa and Robert were checking out of the airport and walking towards the main road.
"How are we getting to your house? By a muggle box?" This was her nickname for cars. She found it hilarious that muggles would squash themselves into metal boxes.
