A Drink

"You want some wine?" 
I blinked at her, taken aback. Not sure I'd heard her correctly. "Ummm what?" I asked hesitantly. 
She smiled at me, pulling the clear glass with red liquid in it closer to me. "You want some wine?" She repeated.
I blinked again. This was....a first. Normally people assumed I was barely graduated from highschool, so wouldn't offer me such a thing.
It was nice in a way, to be considered old enough to have some.
But I smiled politely and shook my head. "Thanks, but I'm good." And to my relief she didn't try to pressure me into taking it.
"Okay," she shrugged and put the glass down. "So you know, Harry Potter. Did you know that Sirius is an actual name of a star in the sky?! Because I didn't!"
