Newt smiled, and nodded a little as well. “Thank you.” He said again. “I really appreciate this.”

“Of course, Newt,” Mr Ramon told him with a smile. He looked down at his desert and gently tore off a piece from the pastry. “We appreciate you being here. Carlos doesn’t have very many wizard friends, you know.”

Newt contently continued to nibble on his own pastry, and he smiled softly. “It’s my pleasure, Mr. Ramon.” He replied both politely and honestly. 

Carlos’ father just smiled at him. “You can call me Edwardo if you’d
like.” He chuckled. “Are all young British wizards so polite, or is it just
you?”

Mikey snorted softly. “Pops, you’re going all ‘wistful old man’ on us.”

Newt smiled shyly, and looked down for a moment. “Just well brought up, I suppose.” He responded, finishing up his pastry. 

“Oh, that’s very nice!” Mr Ramon told him.

Carlos wondered about Newt’s parents. Did they know that he talked to No-Majs, even though it was against the law? Were they a looser family, in regards to the law, or were they strict?

“Would you like another conchas Newt?” Carlos offered politely.

☝️ – Tap my muse on the shoulder

Newt had been walking down the street, case in hand when he suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder. He paused, not sure who was there, but he turned to see– 

“Carlos?” He asked in disbelief. It had been ages since he’d last seen the man. What were the chances of seeing him again?

Despite the fact that what Carlos was saying was true, Newt still blushed and looked bashfully down at the table for a moment. “I appreciate that, Carlos.” He said, offering a small smile again. “But really, I didn’t do much – if anything, you helped me by allowing me to take that bundimun.”

“You did the research on the bundimun and came up with an idea to remove it without harming it,” Carlos pointed out. “Not to mention the actual work that came with cleaning up after it. I would have never known how to even approach the problem without you.”

He glanced down at the menu, and was quickly confused. “What’s a ‘banger’?” he asked, appearing a little troubled.

Newt smiled softly, though at Carlos’ question he gave a quiet chuckle. “A banger is a kind of sausage. They’re very good.” He said, and crossed his legs.

Carlos looked at him. “Sausage?” he asked. “Is it spicy? Also, I don’t understand some of the other things listed here… chips? Like, those thin crispy potato things?”

Newt seemed more than a little confused by the other’s confusion, and he blinked a few times. “Do Americans have different names for everything?” He asked out of genuine curiosity. 

Carlos shrugged slightly. “I suppose so? I mean, you call No-Majs ‘Moogles’ or something. Maybe you can help me out with the rest of this stuff too… the ‘Bangers’ sounds good, but I”m interested to know what the other dishes actually are.”

Carlos blinked at him, but then his lips cracked into a wide grin. “O-okay. Swell. That would be great. Thank you, Newt. I’ll try not to get in the way.”

“You don’t need to worry about that.” He said with a smile, shaking his head. “You won’t get in the way, Carlos. Actually, it’ll probably help to have you there.”

Carlos nodded. “I hope so,” he said, still smiling. “When do you think you’ll be heading out, Newt?”

“I’m thinking tomorrow, hopefully. I can help you all repairing the house, but I must admit I’m pretty excited to see him.”

“I’m sure you are,” Carlos said with a grin.

“You’re welcome to stay here until you’re ready for the expedition,” Mr Ramon told Newt with a smile.

“Yeah,” Carlos said. “I’ll have my room set up and cleaned after dessert.”

Newt blinked in surprise at the offer, and looked between Carlos and his father. “Are you sure?” He asked. “I wouldn’t want to be a bother…”

Carlos just grinned at him. “Newt – you helped us save the house. You’re not a bother at all.”

“Besides – any hotel is at least an hour’s ride from here,” Mikey said. “We don’t have a Portkey or a Floo, and since you haven’t seen much of the area you probably couldn’t apparate there yourself without help.”

The man smiled shyly, and looked down. “Thank you.” He replied quietly, and bashfully looked up at the two of them. “You don’t need to worry about setting up for me, I can just spend the night in my case.” He reassured.

“It’s no trouble at all,” Carlos repeated. “We want to allow you some privacy in our home, after all.” Mikey and Mr Ramon each nodded in agreement.

☝️ – Tap my muse on the shoulder

“Carlos?” He asked in disbelief. It had been ages since he’d last seen the man. What were the chances of seeing him again?

Newt smiled, and offered his arm. “I know a good place.” He said, and smiled happily at the man.

Oh, a Newt smile. Carlos forgot how much he liked those – Newt’s expressions were always so subtle.

Carlos took Newt’s elbow, assuming the other man would lead them to the place. “Is it a magic or a No-Maj place? I’ve got money for both.”

Once Carlos took his arm, he disapparated, and they suddenly appeared in front of The Leaky Cauldron. “It’s a magic place, don’t worry. This way we can speak freely.” He said to him. “And I can pay for lunch, it’s alright.” He added. 

The apparation took Carlos by surprise, but he quickly relaxed when he realized what happened. “Ha – you could’ve warned me,” he said to Newt without any heat in his voice. “Also, I already said I’d already pay, didn’t I? You going to make a dishonest wizard out of me, Newt?”

Carlos looked around them. It appeared to be a pub of some kind dripping in magic, as most all wizard places that Carlos went to did. It reminded him a bit of Ilvermorny, though not quite as old or Gothic. However, it seemed very homely.

Newt smiled at the comment, and shrugged. “It’s always good to keep you on your toes.” He replied teasingly, leading the man inside and finding a table for the two of them. Menus floated over to them, and the thin man handed one over to the other.

“Are you sure? You’re visiting, I feel like I should return the favour after you and your family were so kind.” He said to him.

Carlos snorted. “It’s not like it was all one-sided, Newt. Or I guess three-sided, since it was my family.You helped us, we put you up and fed you – in addition to you being a good friend of ours and mine…” Carlos didn’t carry on and just smiled at Newt, waiting to see how he reacted.
