Lucy saw the surprise and instantly felt on her guard. So, that answered whether this was something she was ready to talk about. "I don't need help." This wasn't school, she wasn't going to rely on other people doing everything for her anymore. She hadn't done that in years and getting away from her dependence had been one of the best things about leaving the magical world. She wasn't going to give that up.
Apparating was surprisingly like hitting the ground after a fall - only it seemed to last longer. That feeling of coming up against something solid and having the wind knocked out of you. It took Lucy a few moments to get her breath back but after a quick check to make sure she was still whole, she nodded. "Yeah, not too bad."
