She stood a moment, listening to all of the excited chatter going on around her. Even though she was looking forward to being back at Hogwarts, she was going to miss living her days at ease. The summer had been busy, but relaxing. The days of staying up too late were quickly going to be replaced with studying and classes. The weather would also soon be turning colder, making late night practice too dark and chilly to be enjoyable.

"Do you have any last stops for supplies?" She asked as she refocused her attention on the present. She had gotten in the bad habit over the summer of letting her mind wander. That would have to stop before classes started.
