Just an all time thinking about how everything he was about to embark on would be his last? Only he realized he didn't want to think of his final year as a year of lasts and from this moment on, he was going to have change those thoughts to being a year of firsts. The true beginning of what lay ahead for him.
Not seeing Maya or Bella at the train station just yet (perhaps they were already on the train somewhere, but he'd look for them later), he found instead a Rajesh.
"Morning, Raj.... You don't mind if I sit here?" They hadn't spoken a whole lot, but as part of his newfound year of firsts, this was a prime opportunity. Raj looked over at the sound of the compartment door opening, spotting a fellow seventh year standing there and offering a small polite smile at the Gryffindor. “Morning Apollo,” he returned the greeting before shaking his head. “No, not at all.” At the very least because he figured the other boy might be going though the same thoughts as he had been and understand. Even if they hadn’t interacted much before they had that in common right now.
Bu then he also didn’t want to make the whole train ride to school awkward and depressing. It would only likely make the feast sad and could just steam roll into the rest of the year. All though that might be an exaggeration since he’d certainly want to enjoy the term. “How was your summer?” he asked thinking it might be a safe topic for both of them.
