She just hopped that things would get to weird with what happened on the train, and over the summer. All she knew was that she really needed to think, about a lot things. She did enjoy spending a bit of time with Carter on the train. It had all felt surreal like nothing in the past few months had changed. But they had, a lot. She was kind of seeing someone else. And he had spent the whole summer with her cousin Mariyln which she didn't find out about until after she and Carter's little run it by the food trolley. But what could she say she didn't have much room to talk, she'd spent most of the summer with Jai.

She found a place to sit looked around there were actually a lot of new or first year Gryffindors this term, mostly younger ones. She sat down with a sigh. Still a bit annoyed over having to clean her own silverware. What it the name of Merlin did the house elves do all summer? Apparently not polishing the silverware. She had hers that she had cleaned by herself in her pocket no way she was letting these babies out of her sight. What did those house elves do? Take a vacation over the summer. Caroline got this mental picture of house elves on a beach chair with sunglasses sipping a drink with a toothpick unbrella. She laughed to herself.
