"So this is really the first time I'd had the chance to look at it." And be excited about coming back to school. "Does it look alright? It still feels a bit weird."
And yet again, it was like the brain-mouth thing was lost on Carter. But then again, he'd never been good at hiding things from her.
What was that? Oh, right. She wanted a sugar quill.
"That's great." he said with a smile. He knew how much she was looking forward to her trip. It was such a relief that things had turned out alright with her dad.
He then grinned when she asked how the rest of his summer went. He pointed to the smaller blue pin that sported the Puddlemere United emblem. "I made it." he said in a hushed overly excited voice. Due to his limited magical contact, nobody other than Marilyn knew. But, being back on the train and seeing her reaction to the Quidditch Captain badge was intoxicating. He was actually starting to feel all the excitement he'd managed to suppress because of his preoccupation with his family issues.
Caroline looked down at him. She could remember how worried he was about telling his sister about who he was. She frowned it must have a been terrible way to find that out the way Anya did. She nodded and patted him on the shoulder
"She'll get over it soon, She'll forgive you, and the two of you will be okay again." She smiled slighty. She knew that things would get back to the way they were with Carter and Anya. She was a little sister and now a big sister, so she got it.
She half sighed half laughed. she nodded.
"It looks great on you. You look good. You'll have to get used to it Captain." She could call him Captain right? She wasn't on her houses team..... yet

She caught a glimps of his eyes, and she nearly melted. Had she made the right choice? Now she really wasn't sure. Her blue eyes went down to the floor.
And looked back up at him when he spoke again.
"Dad and Asher moved here over the summer." She said with her brighest smile. It was one of the things that kept her sane this summer, minus Ashers pranks and jokes.... and flirting with her friends.
Caroline lean in toward his finger where another badge was. How in the name of Merlin did she miss that one? He did it. She gasped, and covered her mouth. She moved her hands and hugged him again.
"Congrats, I'm really proud of you, you know that? I knew you'd be brillant." She let go again, stopping pretty much in his face. It was to much to bare. She was much to close for her own good. She closed her eyes but she couldn't move. Yep this whole thing was a bad idea.
