'Well that certainly was a trek.' Jude Harrison thought to himself as he stepped into the Ravenclaw Common Room. He had been searching for his friend and fellow fifth year James Carter who had disappeared into the crowd after they left the feast a few minutes ago.

Sighing, he saw a few students sitting with each other and he kept his distance since he didn't know them that well. Choosing to take a seat by the fireplace, Jude sat down and relished in the warmth that radiated from the flames. His blue/green eyes gazed into the flickering light as he thought about the year to come.
