He and Gil did most things together, and now that they were in school Drake still managed to have another friend around for most things even if his twin was not available. Why would Phoebe WANT to be alone?

The make up and change in style certainly threw Drake off as he scanned the crowd. But what didn’t was the familiar backpack and the enthusiasm to see him. There was not that many people that would be pleased at his company (he assumed anyways) so that had to be his friend!! And even if her own run didn’t have the stamina to get all the way to him, that didn’t bother Drake! For friends, he was happy to make up the distance. Quickly rushing her way too, Drake pulled his friend into a tight hug and gave her a squeeeeeeze. “Phoebe!! It’s so good to see you! Have you been to the vendors before? Do you think we’ll find rare plants?” It quickly occurred to him she had been wheezing though too, so he released and looked at her with concern. “Oops! Are you okay!?”


Being lonely was hard, but Phoebe felt her MOST lonely at school! It got better when the other kids went away, and she could at least be herself and not worry about whether they liked her or not. She didn't want to be alone at all... it was just that she didn't want to be around Hogwarts kids that hurt her feelings a lot.

Drake made that problem a non-issue. Pheebs wrapped her arms around him tightly like a Strangling Vine Phoebe But Nicer And Slightly More In Need Of Reassurance And Squishy Hugs for the longest ever time. "I missed you lots," Phoebe mumbled into her friend's shoulder. It was obvious that the hug was very much needed. "I'm okay. I just have asthma," she explained, reluctantly letting go of her friend. "...Do they sell plants here?!" Because she was pretty sure she heard him mention plants!!! "I've only ever looked for food, jewelry, and books."
