And surely the headmaster will say something in his speech. She was just hoping that there will be only good news.
"Yeah ,sure." Cassia nodded at Gwen, she surely needed to sit down and not stay standing. It's safer being seated! As she slid besides her Ravenclaw friend she exhaled, "Wow, the trip from our table to yours is a tough one!" She chuckled remembering how she struggled to walk through.
Anyway, she wasn't really bothered about it. She now was enjoying her time and making sure that her last hours at the Castle are awesome. "So you ready to leave Hogwarts?" She wondered. Well, surely Gwen is now used to leaving the castle and saying good-bye. Cassia knew that despite her mixed feeling between sadness and happiness she'll grow used to it.
Gwen waited for Cassia to make her way to the Ravenclaw house table. The girl was really small and at some point, the fourth year really thought she could get lost. Though the Slytherin finally arrived.
‘Yes… I can see that’, the girl said with a grin on her face. Gwen was planning on going to say goodbye to her friends from the other houses, but since it was so crowded, she’d wait for the people to find their seats and yada yada yada…
Calm down people.
Hmm. Was she ready to leave?
‘No. Not really’, the fourth year admitted. Of course she did miss her parents and her friends from home, but that didn’t mean she would like leaving the castle…
‘You?’, she asked the firstie, even though she was almost sure of what Cassia was going to reply. Another year was gone…
Gwen could only imagine how crazy the next one would be with OWLs coming up. Ughhh.
‘Have you made any plans for the summer?’, Gwen asked before drawing her attention to the staff table.
SPOILER!!: Elliot

"Two," she shot back quickly...perhaps she never told Gwen much about her family...she couldn't really remember. She just took it for granted that everyone she met would automatically know her life story. Guess not. "And a baby brother..." she also couldn't remember whether she had ever told Gwen why her parents forgot her birthday...because of her baby brother.
"And no, not really. My father will be gone for most of the summer...he usually is, you see," she semi explained. She had originally thought that he would stay, seeing as his son was only a few months old. But nope. Business came over family, she supposed, and he was going to be off on business all summer. Like usual. Leaving Elliot's mother to care for FOUR children. Elliot was always good, though, so it didn't matter. "And certainly. Send me an owl when you go and I'll be there..." she said with a small roll of her eyes. Not at Gwen, of course. But at the thought that she would have to drag Dani with her. "My little sister will be with me, I'm afraid. She's going to want to get her stuff as well..." blegh. Maybe they would split up or something...though, Elliot didn't fancy letting her hyper eleven year old sister to roam the Alley by herself.
Elliot had two sisters…and a younger brother?
No fair!, Gwendolyn thought and couldn’t help but frown a little. Since she had no siblings, she did envy the younger Ravenclaw. Hmph. Ah. Of course. It wasn’t all good… the fourth year remembered there was some sort of a problem with that brother and Elliot…and their parents… but she couldn’t figure out what it was.
But of course!, the fourth year told herself.
It was the whole thing with the birthday! Her brain was processing pieces of information quite slowly right now, and Gwen didn’t like that.
Not at all. Hmph.
Err… Elliot didn’t seem to be very fond of the idea that she would be spending time with her sister.
‘You will survive’, the fourth year chuckled as she gave another quick look around.
‘We’ll have to meet over the holiday, though’, the Ravenclaw started saying as she drew her attention back to Elliot. She had already made a few plans with her friends, but she would certainly want to see Elliot. Besides, she would probably get bored of her siblings in the first week of the holiday… Of course Gwen didn’t even think of saying that out loud. Gwen made a mental note of sending an owl to Elliot, seriously hoping that she wouldn’t forget.
Mhm. Hopefully not. SPOILER!!: Beezus

But her manners where talking over and the next thing she knew, she was walking towards the girl and sitting beside her. "Uhh...hello Gwen," she replied and tried to smile yet failed at the attempt.
Why did it have to have a follow up question???
"Uhmm..." I don't really want to talk right now. "I've been fine..great...just busy with a few things." Small nod. And then she would need to counter-ask Gwen, yes? "How about...." the Ravenclaw started but was unable to finish when she saw their Team Captain.. Ellie..She wanted to talk to her too. However, she was suddenly tongue-tied that all she could do was look at her helplessly.
Gwen expected Beezus to act like… well… Beezus. Just the way she normally did. Instead, ever since she greeted her back, the fourth year realized how upset the younger Ravenclaw seemed.
Alright…maybe it wasn’t the wisest decision to draw her attention with a wave. Hmph. And by the way she answered her question, Gwen realized she should probably just leave her.
Yes. That is was I’ll do…, she told herself and glimpsed back at the table, before hearing the beginning of her question.
‘Good’, the fourth year mumbled. Yes. She was good.
Errrr… ‘Anyway…’, she started saying, definitely taking the decision of going back. What was she supposed to say? It was good seeing you? Because it was clearly not like that for Beezus… Gwen felt kind of bad…
‘Have a great summer’, she bit her lip before returning to her seat. Mehh. So far for an attempt to start a conversation.
SPOILER!!: Taylor

Taylor wasnt sure if she was correct or not but she thought that Damon had OWLS next year and him and this girl was in the same year... "I am sure you will do fantastic on them anyhow, being in Ravenclaw after all." Tay offered a small smile to the girl.
Gwen gave a quick look around, hoping to see her friend in the room. But then she heard the girl who was sitting beside her say something, so she drew her attention back at Taylor. She gave a small smirk as the girl said she was a third year, but the smirk soon disappeared from her face as the other girl mentioned something about OWLs.
Why? Why now? ‘Yes, that’s right’, the fourth year bit her lip. She was predicting that her fifth year would be a hectic one… She was nearly certain on that.
‘I hope so…’, Gwen mumbled. Hmpf. Sadly, being a Ravenclaw wasn’t enough to make her pass Muggle Studies, her very worst subject.
.................................................. ......................
As she was drawing her attention back at the table, Gwen realized there were still a few people she needed to see. Hmm. She was almost willing to go say goodbye to the Slytherins she knew, but she noticed someone else joining the table. Ah. Of course.
‘Hello Ellie’, she greeted the Captain. Man she seemed happy to graduate…unlike most of the seventh years.
