:choochoo:
Chooooo choooo! The Hogwarts Express has arrived in Hogsmeade for the end of the school year. No one can stay at school all summer, obviously, so store your belongings and find a compartment for you and your friends.
This is where the graduating seventh years will reunite with their peers from their final trip across the lake. It's also where the rest of the students (second - new seventh years) converge to get onto the train. The train leaves promptly in fifteen minutes, so don't dawdle! | |

So.
He didn't drown.
That was positive.
He'd also tried not to get lost in his thoughts and he was pretty sure he'd succeeded. Mainly cause he put his thoughts on Elodie rather than Hogwarts and.. well... here came those thoughts...
Coul stood on the platform after his little boat ride and looked around for Elodie. Had he beaten her here? It was possible... the carriages had more students to pick up than the boats did... Nevertheless, the boy glanced through the swarm of students before pushing shoving calmly making his way through the crowd.
Someone find him his beautiful brunette girlfriend please?

Someone find him his beautiful brunette girlfriend please? It was a known fact that Elodie struggled to go places without someone attached to her hip, but given the tone of this trip...she'd sat in a carriage with students she'd never spoken to and had no intention of doing so. Sat in silence for the duration of the ride and as soon as she could get out and wander through the masses, she did that. People hunting was both her favourite and least favourite thing to do because she either got distracted, repulsed or found exactly who she was looking for.
Boyf, Cake or Choo right now though. Any of those three would be a welcome distraction to all going on in her head right now. Changes..changes she definitely wasn't a fan of and was positive she wouldn't be at any point in her life.
They unsettled her, especially when she'd gotten so used to something being one way and then it wasn't going to be. Like boyfriend cuddles. Who was she supposed to go to now when she needed to be told she was pretty to make her day good? Twisting around a first year obviously eager to head home, Els finally caught up with her boyfriend, slipping her hand into his from behind him and resting her chin on his shoulder.
"You didn't fall in. I'm proud."

"You didn't fall in. I'm proud." Hmmmmm.
Clearly he was no Hufflepuff. This whole finding thing was not for him. He was getting a bit bored of it, really. Maybe he'd ask a Hufflepuff for assistance. Marigold was a badger, wasn't she? She'd help him for sure. And if not? He'd offer leftover sugar quills to a first year in exchange for it's help.
.............. But his girlfriend was a Hufflepuff.
So he didn't really need help. ... Cause she found him.
A grin quick to form on his face, Coul nodded a little, careful not to disturb her head. "I know how to swim though. I'm an excellent swimmer, actually." Duh. If he knew how to swim in an ocean, he was pretty sure that a lake was no match for him.
"Can we take a beach trip this summer? I could teach you how to surf..." Hot surfer babe Elodie. He could dig it.
Hand squeeze.

Hand squeeze. She smiled, realising she was more happy he hadn't died than being proud of him for making the boat ride. "See anything cool?" The thought of riding in those boats next year didn't cross her mind until she caught a look at them. The internal sigh she did didn't fall into view though, and Elodie proceeded to kiss her boyfriend's cheek at the squeeze of her hand.
Thinking about it...she wasn't sure there was anything cool enough on the journey to top seeing her at the other end.
A beach trip? Els shrugged, taking a moment to consider it. "Not at the same beach as the wedding? Not at the same time either." And on their own? Because she was entirely sure that she would either fail, give up or throw some sort of tantrum and go looking for mermaids instead. Caterina was an influence on her very much.
"Sure. I think we need more plans anyway." Time at the allotment, dog walking, uni visiting and her brother's wedding were all they had. Oh, and babysitting. They were obviously doing a lot of that.

The boy shook his head. "Just Barty..." Nothing cool or overly interesting about that. He wasn't exactly a new thing and neither was the lake. He just.. happened to have taken a boat across it rather than swimming or... sitting at it's edge.
A frown tugged at his lips a little, but he tried to turn it into a smile instead.
Didn't go so well.
Coul shook his head. "No. Like... by ourselves.. Just the two of us. Or uh... Maybe Muck and Scout can tag along? If we find a dog friendly beach.." He wanted her time. But Muck and Scout didn't ruin that. People, did. Not dogs. So they could come if she wanted them to. He just didn't want the twins around.. or Braison.. or anyone, really.
"It'll be fun." He turned around, taking his shoulder out from beneath her and pulled her into his arms. He was feeling the sad. So pulling her close and being able to hide his face from her seemed best. Yeah.

So pulling her close and being able to hide his face from her seemed best. Yeah. Barty.... Elodie managed a smile and shrugged. "I'm glad you didn't see anything cooler than that though, because it makes me seem like the best thing you've seen all day." And she kind of was pretty awesome, but it was nice knowing that she'd be the best thing he saw that day. It was nice knowing she was the best for him. It made her feel all warm and fuzzy inside, much like he did on a daily basis and that was her favourite feeling. Feeling needed and appreciated and loved...and happy. Perfect. Things were perfect.
Maybe perfect. As perfect as they could be? They were happy with what things were going on and how they were going, right? She thought she was. Or she was trying to be. It was kind of hard when it felt like your days were running out...or something. Thinking about it wasn't a priority. Things going wrong were not a priority because it wasn't happening.
By themselves. Els nodded and gave his lips a quick kiss. "No dogs. Candice can take Scout if your mum can't... Let's go for a weekend. I want to see the sunset..." And spend as much time with him as possible. Watch something pretty with someone pretty. Sit next to him with her hair all beached up, her arm curled around his back....
The hug was much appreciated, and Elodie found herself putting her arms around his back. One had fingertips twisted into his clothing fabric at his lower back, and the other was higher with a thumb stroking the back of his neck. And she sighed into him, because she knew that he was avoiding telling her how he felt again.. And even if he did...she couldn't make it better. "I like fun..."
