Sophia was completely and utterly relieved.
She'd only reluctantly signed up for Flying class in her second year. It wasn't required, so she'd been horribly tempted to simply forego it, but she needed to get over her fear of heights, and skipping the class wouldn't help with that. No, she had to soldier on.
Thankfully, she shared the class with her good friends, Colin and Gem. They were the sweetest, and they would certainly not bully her due to her fear of heights, so she had that going for her. And apparently God was really looking out for her, because today of all day wasn't even a practical lesson. It was a lesson on broom care!
With a relieved sigh, Sophia paid close attention to the instructions for caring for the school broom, eyeing her own assigned broom critically as the instructions were given. Even with her untrained eye, she could see the sloppiness of the bristles and the splintered handle.
Still, she couldn't do this by eye alone. She had to do this properly.
Clipping the excess twigs from the bristles was easy. She'd smoothed the bristles fairly well in almost no time.
It was when she was checking for splinters on the handle that things really took a strange turn.
As she wrapped her hand firmly around the handle and ran it gently down the old broom to check for splinters, she heard a giggle to her side. She turned to eye Colin curiously. What was he so interested in?
With a raised eyebrow, she whispered, "What's up?"

Who knew flying class could be so hilarious! Colin's belly hurt and his sides ached from trying to contain his laughter for the entire period. He was just glad that Soph and GemGem and Clair were in his group and not too close to the teacher! But Sophia just had to push him over his tipping point!
He watched with interest as she trimmed her brush. "Hih hih!" Colin nearly dropped his own staff onto the table as he laughed. "Go on, brush it out proper Soph! You're leaving his bristles all bent!"
"~snurk snurk!!~" Colin tried to contain his snorting laughter when she moved on to the broom handle itself. This was too much! "Sophia! It looks like ye've done that before, lass! That's a nice smooth technique you've got there! But ye're no gonna find any splinters by ticklin him that softly! Deek here, lass!"
Colin had brought his own broom to class, his Silver Arrow, and he stood it erect next to the workbench so that he could work more efficiently. "Gie him a good grip, right? Don't be afeart! He won't break!" He then slid his hand up and down the finely polished wood.
He looked across the table at Gem and Clair --- thus far they'd been silent. How that could be, Colin could not imagine! This was such an entertaining lesson! He nudged Sophia in her arm. "Gie it a go, now. Up and down, up and down! Nice and hard!" He laughed as he got the polish out of his kit, wondering what antics they'd get up to next!
