She nodded at him enthusiastically. “Yep, First years!!” she raised her hand for Mel high fives. But frowned when her older sisters showed up. This wasn't gonna be good.
Emmaleigh just looked at the children and sighed. At least their new friend was helping clean up the mess Ace had made. She took a deep breath, and looked at her fiancé. “Salander...” she said with a sigh. She stooped to finish gathering the strewn luggage, thankful for all those years of lifting heavy things in the barn. “Thank you for your help.” she said smiling at the boy. Crossing her arms, she then looked at the kids. “Melbourne, get down from there.” she said using the child's proper name. “And you too Sam. You know good and well that you shouldn't be standing on there. It isn't safe.” And then she looked at Tenacius “And this is not time for racing trolleys. It's very crowded and busy, and you could have hurt yourself, or someone else.”
“And this was left at the entrance.” Kara jumped in to add, finding it only proper to chide her sister. Seeing as she wasn't all motherly like Em. “Someone could have run right into it coming through the barrier. Mom and Dad would be really upset if you hurt someone.” she frowned. Their parents deserved better.
“I'm sorry.” Sammy said hanging her head and getting down. “I didn't mean to, I was just excited. Plus, Spacey left me.” She went over to Kara and got wrapped in a hug. And told each other their goodbyes. Both of them trying not to cry, and Sam promising to be good and safe. She had always hated when Kara had gone off to school
As Emmaleigh observed the two girls, she gave a small smile, and felt a pang of sadness. “Tenacius,” She said taking his hand and pulling him aside, letting Sal come if he wanted to. Kneeling down, she gave him a sad kind of smile. “I love you,” she said quietly, setting her hand on his little cheek. “More than you can possibly know. And I'm going to miss you so much. You promise me you will be safe, okay? And stay out of trouble?” The young woman pulled him into her arms and gave him a tight hug. Not caring if it embarrassed him. She really was going to miss their little one. Things were going to be quiet with out him at home. “I have something for you.” She said quietly, letting him out of the hug, and giving him a small package wrapped in brown paper and tied with twine. “You can open it later if you'd like.” She gave his head a kiss, and gave his hair a ruffle before standing up. She reached out for Sal's hand to hold.

Emmy looked mad. So mad.
Fire-breathing-momma-dragon mad.
Mel’s eyes widened as she heard Emmy saying her full name. “Emmmmmy” she groaned and pouted at the older lady, “okay but only because we have to get on the train” she added with a somewhat defiant head nod before hopping off of her trolly…”he left you?” Mel gasped, “Spaaacey? You shouldn’t have left her.” Mel huffed at her friend but still was smiling all the while.
And then Space-Ace was being pulled away by Emmy and it as the touchy feely mum time…that’s what that looked like right? ”I wish I had a mum-person” Mel huffed as she stood there now fully on the ground. “Sammy where on the train do you want to sit?” She asked immediately plastering her happy smile on her face. After all it was her first train ride to Hogwarts ever.
Carl returned the smile. "Nice to meet you too," he said to the two girls. And yay! They were all first years. All newbies. He did not have to worry about lagging behind, because he read, or at least skimmed through his text books in the past month or so.
He stood aside and watched the interaction between family/friends. "No problem!" Carl said with a grin at the lady referred to as Emmy. He turned his attention to the train, where students were beginning to fill in slowly. As Mel said, they should get on pretty soon.
Then there was the lovely mother moment and Carl moved closer to Mel, not wanting to intrude. Then he heard what she said, though she was rather quiet. She didn't have a mother as well? His parents had passed away when he was a baby. He wondered what his mother would be like if she was still alive. She would probably like the fact that he was a wizard, that he was special.
"Do you want to get on the train now?" Carl asked brightly. He was finally going to Hogwarts! He should not be thinking about his parents, on this happy day.
