Originally Posted by SilverTiger Lily wasn’t honestly sure what she was feeling. She wasn’t graduating yet, so she didn’t feel sad that the term was over, but she did feel like she’d almost slacked off last term. Aside from the initial disbelief when people had started showing the evidence of aging, which had ended as soon as things had progressed beyond ingle grey hairs that she could have believed was just the other students’ imaginations, she felt like she’d just sort of been there. She’d enjoyed the term, but something had been missing. At least she had a whole other term to make up for it, but first came summer. Summer meant free time, although it also meant a whole month without her family, Austin or her friends back in California. She still didn’t know if Aunt Rhiannon was going to get married over the summer either, but then that could have caused issues with the whole being gone for a whole month. It’d get figured out, and she could always talk to them to make sure she could actually go to the wedding. Obviously it hadn’t been planned yet or she’d have known when it was.
Gavroche had been annoying, not wanting to stay in his cage as she’d tried leaving him with her luggage back in the luggage compartment, so the little owl was alternately flying ahead of her and coming back to perch on her head or shoulder as she roamed the corridor looking for a compartment. There was a chance she’d manage to find Astrid if she looked hard enough, unless her fellow musketeer hadn’t been hiding in her common room all term and had left school. Either that or she could find Austin, who seemed kind of down when they’d talked last, although not as much about his parents’ separation anymore. They’d find time to do stuff over the summer, but maybe talking on the train to figure out when would be nice. Either way, she wasn’t finding anyone. Not even any of her other friends, but as she’d gotten even further toward the back, she’d peered through the window in the door of one of the compartments she’d passed, calling her owl back softly as she saw a familiar figure inside. She hadn’t really talked to Terry much since the dance lesson, but that still counted as knowing him.
Sliding the door open, she poked her head in, rolling her eyes as her owl took off again, flying into the compartment and perching on the window. “Gavroche, you can’t go outside,” she said, before turning her attention back to the Slytherin all folded up on the seat. “You look lost in thought,” she observed, sliding into a seat across from him. Her owl wasn’t going anywhere, so she might as well get comfortable. It didn't look like Terry was going to get any company soon, at least it gave him an opportunity to sit and think about things. What his thoughts were filled with was a little obscure. He was wandering where his girlfriend was, whether he would be joined by her fairly soon. He was also thinking about what it would be like when he got home. Had Tilly finally grown up or was she still the spoilt sister who got whatever she wanted? He sighed out loud, his eyes moving to look out of the window.
That was until he heard the door to his compartment slide open and an owl sat on the window next to him. He glanced at the owl, his head tilted slightly to the side, observing him before looking up at their owner. He smiled, noticing it was Lily whom he hadn't spoken to much after the dance lesson. She was a good partner, neither were brilliant and they were comfortable with one another. "Hey" he nodded at her as she sat opposite him. "Yeah, just trying to speed up time" he chuckled. The train journey could be long and when you were by yourself for a short period, it felt like time was going so slowly. "Who's this?"he indicated to the owl, stroking his chest with the back of his fingers. He loved owls, he loved all creatures to be honest.
