Willow nodded and smiled. She was glad that Tracey was open to the idea of visiting her, even though they hadn't known each other very long. Perhaps this was the beginning of a lasting friendship!
"I could show you some of the really pretty places. I'd beware of my siblings, though. Most of them aren't terribly nice." She gave a small laugh, but it wasn't really funny. Willow wasn't one to complain, but it had been very hurtful when she was small and her older brothers and sisters bullied her. But now wasn't the time to reminisce over sad memories.
"I mostly read fantasy. It's just splendid, all the magic and what. I would love to help you find something you'd enjoy." She finished off her cookie and slid away her plate. "I believe anyone can be a reader if they have the right book." The redhead lass had always been bookworm, but she had never had anyone to share her book recommendations with. Hogwarts was like a breath of fresh air for her- the learning, the new friends, and the beauty of the grounds.
"Would there be anything specific you would like in a book? Or would you rather just find one and go with it?" Willow asked, flicking at the edge of her napkin.

I've lived a thousand lives and I've loved a thousand loves. I've walked on distant worlds and seen the end of time- because I read.

"Oh, don't worry about it. I'm pretty open about my feelings." Willow gave a little laugh, not wanting Tracey to feel that she was prying or making her upset. While shy, Willow wore her heart on her sleeve and didn't mind telling people about her feelings or past. It was totally foreign to her that Tracey didn't have any siblings; as the youngest, it was all she had ever known. And while she had endured much bullying from them, she was a little bit glad that she hadn't grown up alone.
"We can go to the library now if you'd like," The redhead offered and brushed a few crumbs off of her robes. In truth, the library was her favorite place and was looking forward to visiting it with a friend. She had spent most her her time there since arriving at Hogwarts and honestly enjoyed it so much she sometimes wished she could just move right in among the shelves. It would be a delight to share something so dear to her with her friend. "I would love to recommend you some things if you get stuck."
Willow stacked her silverware and napkin neatly on her plate and looked over at Tracey to see if she was ready and willing to go.

Willow smiled at Tracey's agreement. It didn't bother her that her friend was taking more sweets- everyone deserved treats now and then. Willow certainly wasn't above a midnight snack or two when she was experiencing cravings. In all honestly, she was over the moon that Tracey even wanted to hang out with her. She was also thrilled to be going to the library; sharing books with people was one of her favorite things to do.
"We can go ahead now," The girl offered and stood up, her Ravenclaw robes swishing around her ankles. They were slightly long on her, but that was a side effect of having rather short legs. "Thank you for coming with me. I'm really glad to have bumped into you," Willow said a bit shyly, letting her hair fall in front of her face to hide her pink cheeks. She just wanted Tracey to know that she appreciated their friendship, however new it was.
"I think I have a good book to show you," Willow smiled, thinking to the specific novel she thought Tracey would enjoy. Then, she began to make her way out of the Great Hall, excited to have made a friend and glad that they could continue to get to know each other.
