Fluttery Pegasi "Hm?" Hadley sluggishly forced her eyes open. There was a boy in the compartment. Who she knew. He was in her same house, same year. Still it took a moment to drudge up his name from her tired mind. She yawned and sat up straighter, earning a small but noisy chiding from the ferret in her lap.
The ferret curled up again and got comfy. It didn't surprise her Asher was tired. He spent all of yesterday sprinting and leaping around in excitement as though he were three years younger than he was. He wore himself out good. "Hey, Canaan." Hadley stretched her arms above her head. He had asked her a question, right? It took her a minute to recall. "Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm fine. Just jetlagged still. How was your summer?"
