Another term at Hogwarts had come to an end. This was the year that she expected to be the most sad about being over, but she was feeling quite the opposite. Sure, she was going to miss those that were graduating, but she was ready for her summer back home. She had plans to hang out with Sha, and there would be baseball, swimming and tacos in her life. What more could a girl ask for? Well, unicorns. A girl could always ask for unicorns, but that wouldn't be happening for her this summer. In fact, maybe next year she would just march her sixth year self right into the forest and get her own unicorn. That was the way things worked. If you wanted something done right, you had to do it yourself. She didn't need anybody to get a unicorn for her. NOPE. AJ could make this happen all on her own, and she would. It was decided. Besides, Zander wasn't going to be around anymore so she wouldn't feel bad about totally messing up his little prefect day. So, to whoever was going to be prefect next... it sucks to be you. It probably was going to suck to be Airey too. Whoops. Sorry boys, but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.

As she made her way over to her house table that *AHEM* had won the cup once more, a smile spread across her face. She was proud to be apart of this house. The zany and bold Gryffindors really knew how to have a good time, and AJ was glad to be apart of such an awesome group. Speaking of winning the house cup every year... she was pretty sure that started happening as soon as she joined the house of lions. Coincidence? PFFT! You're welcome, Gryffindors. You are welcome.

Familiar faces everywhere. Seriously, AJ had some type of connection with practically everybody at this table. Some of them were stronger than others, but she had mad love for everybody. In fact, as she walked by she patted people on the backs, ruffled their hair while throwing out random greetings. "Sup?" Hi, hello, what it is, yo... so on and so forth.

Ava got a thumbs up and a goofy grin. Once you float people in the air, you sort of just get a connection with that person. You know? Zeke got a nod, and she was just about to walk past to the next person when a thought crossed her mind. "Future prefect... calling it!" She said with a wink as she made her way down the table.

Benny and Adi were both sitting together and she clapped them both of the back with either hand. "Congrats, boys. I wish you guys the best." Peace, love and tacos. Really, AJ didn't have any hard feelings towards either of them. They had both been her best friends at one point, and she enjoyed all the time they had spent together. She was a better person because of her experience with them, and she was loving just being AJ Valentine. There was more to her than being the girlfriend of a prefect.

When she saw Zander a weird sensation swept through her belly. She bit her bottom lip, and before she knew it her feet were running towards him. It was as if they had a mind of their own. Her arms wrapped around him, and Zander was getting an official bone crushing hug from none other than AJ. Feels took over man. That sort of thing happened a lot with her. She was a spur of the moment kind of girl. "I'mgunnamissyou..." fell out of her mouth in a jumbled mess. "Good prefect," she said as she patted his head like the good doggie that Zander Adair was. A moment later, she released the older lion and continued on down the line. As if she always did this sort of thing, and it was totally normal. Which, in reality, it was... for her.

Her sister and super good friend Candice was next in the AJ love fest. She squeezed herself in a non existent seat between the girls. "Sup ladies?" These were two chicks that she would be getting more time with and one of the girls would be staying in the same house as her come this summer - two guesses who - so she didn't feel the need to cling to either one of them, but she really enjoyed both of their company. Candice was always down for whatever AJ wanted to do, and it wasn't every day that you made a friend like that.

Oh, the speech was starting which meant that she needed to cut her love fest short, or at least hit the pause button on it. Deciding that she needed a proper seat, she crouched and duck walked herself down to an empty seat. Her thinking was that she wouldn't draw attention to herself, but in reality she was probably doing just to opposite. Her eyes found Marsha, and AJ beamed from ear to ear. Sliding into an open seat by her, AJ located and squeezed the younger girl's hand. "Everything okay?" It obviously wasn't. AJ knew Marsha well enough to know when something was wrong, but she didn't think it was anything bad. More than likely it was the whole end of term thing, because loads of people seemed to be sad. AJ just wasn't. She was happy by nature, and she decided that being happy was way better than being sad.
