Hey, that was Rilez! Alec let a grin spread across his face before looking around at the other people in the compartment. Oh... she was with other people. Like that Penelope girl and... hey, Alice! And... a random guy. But his best friend looked happy... without him. Alec stepped back and started to walk away slowly. Yeah... she didn't need him.
The thirteen year old continued to walk, his hands deep in his pockets, when something else caught his attention. This time, it wasn't the sight of anyone in particular but... a voice. A nice voice, at that. Confused, the boy continued to walk faster along the compartment until...
... Bliss? ... Bliss can sing?! The third year quietly pulled the compartment door open and stood at the doorway, grinning at the second year girl. She... was also playing her guitar! Wow. Alec moved forwards, closed the compartment door and sat down opposite Bliss, just listening to her play with a smile spreading across his face. Yeah... it was nice. Bliss was lost in a world on her own. Just strumming at her guitar and singing, she was at peace. All her thoughts were clear and she was happy. The song she was singing was a new one and still rough around the edges, but she didn't mind. She stopped playing for a moment and opened her eyes.
"Alec," she whispered..o__O "ALEC!" She said enthusiastically, placing her guitar on the seat next to her and reached across to Alec and gave him a hug.
"How long were you listening?" Bliss asked, biting her lip. She grinned at him although she was still pretty surprised.
