A new year, a new me

[Detrick Klein]

Detrick walked around the grounds of the great Durmstrang Institute. Yes it was great but the more time he spent here the more he wanted to get away from it. Detrick was now in his sixth year of Durmstrang and knew nobody. Nobody, apart from Steph of course. How his life had changed not too many months ago, he couldn't believe how lucky he was to find himself not only his first friend, but his first girlfriend.

He had spent so much time with her recently and had enjoyed every moment. But now he was in a new year, he decided to have a change. Steph had brought out the best in him, a part he never thought exsisted. And becuase of it he made a promise to himself that this year he would try and make some male friends. Sure he knew the boys in his year, most of them at least, but only by name, not personally. Not for long he thought to himself, determined to have this work.

 

[Daniel Olsen]

Daniel was angry and sad, both emotions trying to win in his confused mind. For something to do as his homework was completed, this teenager decided to fly. Flying was something of great importance in Dan's life and it also was an act that made his mind relax and calm. Mounting his firebolt, he sped through the ground flying like a rocket at break neck speed towards the pitch.

Dan was flying at low height, not thinking of where he flew, zig zaging the trees that had been planted in a straight line. He flew over the head of someone and realized his mistake just as he did so. Of course his maroon robes must have been flapping around, he hoped they hadn't flapped at the boy's face. Turning his broom in a sharp cut, avoiding a tree that he was going to bump into, he flew back towards the boy and asked, concern showing in his voice "Are you alright?"

He recognized Detrick from his classes but they were just on name bases. He didn't know anything about him except that he was there. He had to make friends, best friends so as to keep himself occupied and this boy seemed just the right material for that task. Giving him a smile, he touched the ground once again and stood on his feet. "Sorry about that" he apologized.

No internet, sorry

Detrick lifted his head up in shock when he felt something go past him at a fast speed, almost hitting him what the - he thought to himself as he saw a blur of maroon fly past him. He suspected it was a first year or someone who didn't know how to fly yet, let alone on the grounds. Seeing the person approach him again he recognised the face. Daniel? Detrick asked himself, he had never talked to the boy but he knew they were definatley in the same year. "Yeah, I'm fine just thinking." he replied with a shrug.

Seeing Daniel get off his broom Detrick was surprised that someone was actually talking to him, especially when he could have easily left him sitting there to his own thought. Maybe this whole, making friends thing isn't as hard as I thought it was he thought to himself with a chuckle. Shaking his head lightly he replied, "No you alright, no harm, no foul. Nice broom." Detrick commented.
