Drake had been looking forward to meeting up with friends over the summer pretty much since the minute he stepped foot off of the train. Maybe a little longer because he was distracted momentarily by getting the biiiiiggest mum squeezes, but then when it was home and quieter with not nearly the same chaos as his dorm and the common room, he'd started sending out owls asking everyone what day they'd be at the Alley and if they wanted to meet up.

And he was THRILLED when he got a response for when Phoebe would be around. They all had to go shopping at one point, so being able to line his day's up with hers sounded GREAT! Proposing they meet at the street vendors (because he bet they could find something really cool - like maybe some plant hybrids), the boy stood near where the line of stalls began and shifted back and forth on his feet - his curls pulled back and secured in a ponytail at the back of his head. His eyes were peeled as he looked this way and that for his friend. He was also unconsciously having a no-blink contest with himself because he didn't want to miss her.

Which unfortunately just meant his eyes were starting to sting and tear up just the smidge.


It was hard to get a hold of Pheebs this summer. She kept her head down in DA, not wanting to be noticed by her classmates. She didn't want to see or talk to people from school, and she didn't want them ruining her summer. Her summer was okay so far, and she wanted Hogwarts kids to Stay Away. Drake, however, did not count. When he asked to meet up, she sent him her schedule extra STAT (that meant really quickly). It was hard to be alone all the time, even if that was what Pheebs had chosen to do- Drake and Phoebe Day was an improvement.

Pheebs may have been a little hard to spot, because she had lots of makeup on and sunglasses that hid her face and she was wearing shorts and a baggy hoodie instead of her usual overalls and striped shirt. Also, she was smiling, which she never did. But her backpack was the same and the way she ran towards him with open arms was exactly the same. She was still herself inside. "Drake!!!" Her run may have slowed to a wheeze because her lungs weren't built for running, but just know!! She was running in her heart!!
