Nadia loved it when she was right. And Micha and Whites made such a cute couple. Other people might have said they were too unlike each other, but Nadia knew better, from her parents. Sometimes it took your complete opposite to make you truly happy. Micha would be careful enough to keep Whites from doing anything too stupid or impulsive, and Whites would help keep her from getting into a rut, and from being so reserved that she missed out on life.
It was cute.
"My name is Nadia," she said, taking the empty seat. "Nadia Fairchild. It's so great to meet you all." She took a few bites of her delicious red and white striped dessert. "Mmm! Peppermint is the best flavor. I'll totally have to give you some of the delicious mint and chocolate cookies my mom makes when she sends them."
Haha, slobber? Whites was pretty sure he didn't slobber. Okay, so maybe the occasional light drool while he was asleep, but that wasn't really his fault. It only happened when he napped, anyway, especially if he fell asleep in class for some reason. It didn't make much sense to him, but he had no doubt he'd be able to control his slobber reflex with Micha's ice cream. He smiled at her, reassuring.
"I won't!"
It crossed his mind not-so-briefly that Micha had just recently had this spoon in her mouth. It didn't seem like it'd bug her too much, but man. It wasn't that big of a deal to him, especially not between close friends, but there was still that thought that they were 'swapping spit' in a sense. It didn't help that she was offering him her spoon, allowing him to eat from her hand. Man, this was crazy, but he was probably over thinking it.
He leaned forward, took the bite, and pulled back again, savoring the taste.
"Mmm. Minty." Man he was lame. He couldn't think of anything more clever than that? 'Mintalicious', 'mint-tastic'? Nah, that'd probably just piss her off. "Thanks!" He gave her a grateful smile. If she'd actually liked his ice cream, he would've offered it to her.
"Peppermint?" He asked, dubiously raising a brow. That didn't even have the redeeming qualities of chocolate. "I bet the cookies are good! Home made is always the best."

The girl, Nadia, chose to sit with them, and spoke to them of her own ice cream, which Micha eyed with interest. Peppermint? She loved candy canes, but had never tried an ice cream flavored like that. She had no doubt it would be tasty, but for the moment, she was satisfied with her own treat.
"Mint and chocolate cookies?" That also sounded delicious. This girl had gotten on her good side already, and they'd only met two minutes ago. "What House are you in, Nadia?"
Whites took the proffered bite, and to her surprise he didn't make a mess of it either. He hadn't bitten all the ice cream off the spoon, however, and so absently Micha stuck the spoon in her own mouth, cleaning it off, before returning it to her bowl.
"You're welcome," she said back to him, ignoring his giant monkey smile. He would never learn that he could not win her over with pretty flashes of teeth, would he? She would just pay it no notice, then.
The Slytherin had noticed Asher's continuing silence, and finally she turned to the girl, the barest hint of concern in her smoke-colored eyes. "Are you okay, Asher?" She was wary of another panic attack; either that, or it was Slytherin camaraderie that pushed her to ask. Nothing else.

At least Micha hadn't tried to eat this new girl or something - where had that thought come from? Asher stared at the table some more, breathing rather normally, blinking when her eyes required such an action. Maybe a little more frequently - after all, if her eyes fell out of her head, where would she be then?
Cookies? They sounded nice. Asher wasn't sure if she liked cookies or not, she couldn't remember the last time she had eaten a cookie, but yes, they certainly sounded nice enough. She pushed her bowl a little away from her and looked up at them, slightly red-faced without knowing why.
"Fine!" she squeaked. "I'm fine."
Nervously, she stared down, and then at the door. The ice cream had been rather nice, but frankly, Asher was ready to leave. What if an apocalypse started up? Did they want to be caught out eating ice cream? Certainly not.
But, she didn't want to look like she wanted to leave because this Nadia girl had shown up, that would be certainly rude, she just couldn't do that. So instead of Asher stared at the table, humming under her breath. She stopped abruptly. What if they all thought she was crazy and had her sent of to a loony bin?
Oooooohhhhhhh that would be terrible. No, Asher just couldn't bear that.

Nadia was happy to find that the trio she'd stumbled upon was so nice. However, she was a little upset that her plan to distract Asher from being a third wheel didn't seem to be working. The girl looked as glum as ever. Maybe she was shy, and was uncomfortable around people she didn't know.
Well, Nadia would have to remedy that right away. "Oh yes," she said to Whites, "Mom's cookies are really good. I keep telling her I want the recipe, but she knows me. I can't cook or bake to save my life. Over school breaks, she's always threatening to teach me, but she's a busy lady. I mean, she works full time, and teaches a yoga class at the Y on the weekends, just to make ends meet. Guess it's not cheap to send a kid off to Europe for school, but she never complains."
As usual, Nadia's mouth was off a mile a minute, happily chatting away. "I happen to be in Gryffindor," she answered Micha. "Just got here, actually. I really like it though. So much better than my last school, The Starshine School of Magical Arts. The other students, well, they were not at all friendly to muggleborns. So, that's why I begged my mom to transfer me here. So far, everyone here has been really great, like you guys."
She couldn't help but think again how cute Micha and Whites were together, and, of course, Nadia being Nadia, she had to say something about it. "You know, guys, and this might sound a little strange, since we just met and all, but, like, I totally get it. Like, you two might on the surface seem like oil and vinegar, but mix you together, and that's some good salad dressing, if I say so myself."
