Along with other unidentified feelings, Louisa had nothing really to say or think about but King's Cross and Vashti.
Once inside the compartment she let go of her cats and threw her shoulder bag on one of the seats before plopping down on it and leaned her head against the window, she stretched both of her legs out and crossed them at the ankles, and with crossed arms she was ready to take a nap. Fake nap. Just in case Vickers wanted to say something other than him and Vivi deciding their friendship and Vickers' relationship status on their own. What was the point of telling her about all this now anyways? It was over. Vivi said at the feast they'd made up so it is over.
She closed her eyes and willed herself to go to sleep.

The cockatoo squawked again before tucking her feathers back into herself and eyed the felines. Oh heck no. Keep that cage door closed sir.
Vickers turned around just in time to see Louisa close her eyes. His shoulders drooped-- she’s just gonna sleep through the entire trip and leave him to wallow in misery? He shifted uneasily on his feet, wanting to take a seat next to her but remembered how repulsed she was of him at the boats, so he took the seat on the opposite side of the compartment, next to the window directly across from her.
Several minutes of tense-filled silence went by between them, him watching the train roll out of Hogsmeade as the Scottish countryside started to pick up speed, the last time he was ever going to see any of these again, at least for a while. Finally he shifted his eyes to the ginger gal, still stoic and unmoving. ”Louisa...” he murmured, drawing the last syllable out for a bit. She has barely spoken about anything he’s said other than to tell him to keep quiet. ”Don’t you have anything to say to me?... About any of this?”
Having dropped off all her stuff in one of the compartments, Lily was wondering the corridor of the train, looking for two people. The redhead had changed into her muggle clothing already, wearing jeans and a blue t-shirt. Her Ravenclaw sneakers were upon her feet but only one was still tied. Lily was glancing in each compartment as she made her way down the train. As she had just about passed one compartment, she realized that the two people she was looking for were inside and seemed to be upset about something.
Entering the compartment, Lily slid in and sat on the bench next to Louisa. Vickers got a smile before the former third year said anything.
"Hi Vickers! I didn't get the chance to see you at the feast to say goodbye, so I figured I'd do that now while I had the chance.... So umm... Goodbye Vickers." She finished, handing him a lumpy, wrapped
gift. While she waited for him to open it, the redhead looked over at Louisa and gave a bit of a frown. Why was she trying to sleep when she could be eating candy and enjoying herself with her little sister, who happened to have a whole bunch of candy in her backpack? So Lily sat, glancing at Louisa and hoping that the train ride would never end.
