All of this added up to one thing for her- her last year of schooling was going to go down in history as one of the craziest. And it was only the first night. She didn't think she could handle much more excitement.

When she had been walking for at least ten minutes, the excitement begin to catch up with her and she found herself in need of a place to sit for a bit until she could gather the energy to head back to the castle. This was when she spotted the hot spring. It confused her a moment because, hadn't there been a duck pond here last year? Did Hogwarts change landscaping every year? Huh, the more you know...

She decided that this new hot spring was just as good as any to take a rest. In fact, it seemed better than most, as she could soak her wary feet and just relax for a bit. So, ignoring the guy who was already there, Em slipped off her heels and stuck her feet into the water. Um... this is nice....
Sutton had been doing a lot of wandering on her own lately. She was having trouble making friends, as always, but that was honestly no one's fault of her own. She just... didn't talk to people, didn't really try to get to know them. She hadn't really met many other students in her year as most of them seemed to be either older or younger than her, but that was okay. Sutton had a big family, so she could pretty much get along with anyone of any age assuming she actually opened up her mouth to talk.

As she neared the hot spring, she thought that perhaps this would be a good place to just sit down for a little while before making the treck back up to the castle. Scanning the space around the edge of the spring, she saw that there was already an older girl sitting in the best area available for relaxing. At first, Sutton was disappointed and thought that she'd just sit somewhere else, but then she pursed her lips in determination. There was no reason why shouldn't just go sit with that girl. Maybe she needed to make friends too...

Taking a deep breath, Sutton walked over to the girl and smiled her best, most polite smile. "Um... hello! Would it be alright if I sit here with you?" She asked in that sweet voice of hers that showed her most genuine, kind intents.
