Jeslyn turned to face her mom.
"you ok?"
The girl nodded slowly.She still amazed with her surrounding.
"Now,dear.I am scared that I can't accompany you longer."
"What do you mean?" Jessie glance up to the woman.
"Your dad. "
Jeslyn sighed heavily. She knew her mother need to came back to see her husband in St. Mungos.
"You're our big girl now. I am sure you'll be fine. We-dad and I- hope you can make friend in no time." mom talked fastly " Just be yourself. Respect the elders and don't judge other people by their bloodline,'kay?"
Jessie rolled her eyes. She had no other choice.
"Yes,mum.Give my love to dad. I hope he'll better soon. He owe me a broom bytheway."
Mum chuckled.
" And again for the most exciting part, maybe you can meet your prince with shiny armour in Hogwarts.Like I used to be."
"Mum! stop teasing me!"
The girls could hear her mom laughed before kissing the top of her head.
"Good luck,darling.Keep smile and stop pouting all day.I will owl you every week" Jessie gave her mum light hug before let her go.
" Bye mum."
After the shadow of her mum dissapeared, Jeslyn once again glanced her surrounding.
Her new live will begin and she grabbed her trolley tightly. Ready not ready she had to be ready.
Jeslyn just turned her petite body before accidentally bumped into someone -or two? .
Ah! Only five minutes after her mum dissapeared and she got a trouble?
Oomph! Henric stumbled a bit when someone bumped into him. Hmm? Hello....what is this? A new firstie? "Hey, sorry about that..are you alright there?" She seemed to be fine, good. He wondered where were her parents at. She seemed to be alone and looking rather lost. "Its okay, is this your first time to Hogwarts?" he asked her again.

Ryden grinned and nodded as he gave Jace’s head a nice old pat. “I suppose it would be too exhausting for them now to teach.” Merlin, he’d do anything to retire now, but since Jace is still in school, he’d have to push that idea at the very back of his mind. Education is very important, and he would make sure that Jace will get the best of the best.
And what is this? Already talking about books and libraries? Ryden listened and chuckled to himself, knowing that the Librarian will not allow special access and privileges, just because he’s also their Head of House. Smiling at the two, he slowly slipped away from the boys and tended to Jace’s trunks, making sure that he didn’t forget anything...like his underpants.
“But...but there must be a curfew, right? How do you get out of that?” Jace asked blinking his eyes, hungry for answers. “Maybe...maybe he can give...a longer loan time for books?” Will that work? Jace knew not everyone’s into books, so instead of it just sitting lonely on a shelf, the Librarian should just let them have it for a longer period of time. Well, just a suggestion.
“Oh! Oh yes, I’ve read about them! There are FOUR in total! Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, and Ravenclaw! Each are represented by animals that best describe its student’s personalities...as well as elements of the earth! Gryffindor has a lion, representing fire and bravery...Hufflepuff has a badger, representing earth and hardwork, Slytherin has a snake, representing cunningness and water, and then Ravenclaw has an eagle, representing cleverness and air!” Jace beamed as he adjusted his backpack. “The houses are named after the four founders, Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Salazar Slytherin, and Rowena Ravenclaw!” Did he get everything correct and in order? Jace turned to ask his papa if his answer was correct when—
“PAPA!” Jace rushed towards the man, and pushed down the undergarment that Ryden was holding up for everyone to see! “That’s my underwear!” Jace quickly snatched it and stuffed it at the very bottom of his trunk. his face has turned red as a tomato.
Wahhaaat? Teddy just paused and said.. "Er... okay." What did he just say? He'd have to see if they had a Japanese/English dictionary at the library.
"Yeah, probably. I heard that Professor Botros had to go to St. Mungo's. He... well, at the end of term he sort of... forgot everything." Teddy had read about dementia, and he thought it could have been that. The Professors who had taught Mr. Ruden were possibly old like this. Teddy listened to Jace's ideas about the library, books.. "That's a good idea," he said, his face scrunching up in thought. "I... no, WE should go to him. You might be in Ravenclaw, right? Yeah. You have a one in four chance. So if you are, then we go together and we ask him about it. We tell him how much reading and books mean, and of course the library, and that we respect the books and the library, and he might give us some... more time." Whether that be in the library, with borrowed books... Jace was right! They just had to tell that to Mr. Kitridge and who knew? They might be lucky!
Teddy's face lit up. Jace was just as excited about the houses, and researching them, than he was! It was a sign, right? He was going to have a house-mate! "You HAVE to be in Ravenclaw. I'm about... righty-seven percent sure you will be." He nodded, but then... MADLY started giggling, his hands covering his mouth. Poor Jace, his father had just waved his underwear around! Teddy wouldn't spread that to everyone though. He would keep it a secret.

EVASIVE | RESTLESS | MISUNDERSTOOD always on the move
The day was here! Not too much longer until Kaylee is on her way to her first year at Hogwarts. She didn't know a thing about this wizarding school, as her whole family went to wizarding schools in America. Even though she is really excited to go, she was terrified, especially when she thinks about how this is the first time she would be away from her sister for longer than a weekend. She sat down on her trunk and watched other students, say goodbye to family and greet friends
Michelle watched as her little sister sat down on the trunk and started to observe everyone around her. She walked towards her sister and ruffled her curly hair ignoring the"Michelle!" before saying "Why don't you go introduce yourself to some of the students around here. You're going to be living with them, some even in the same dorm, for quite a few months." she said gently, trying to get her shy sister out of her bubble.
Kaylee hesitate, she knew her sister was right, but she had hard time talking to people she didn't know, but she wanted to try. She bit her lip trying to decide on what to do.
Dora had been WATCHING this one. MHM. With a grin on her face she sauntered up to Chloe's side and nudged that comic gently. She was appreciating the hair. She was indeed! Instead of her usually bubbly nonstop chatter she actually stood quietly and ALMOST still while she waited for the other girl to acknowledge her. MHM. What a difference a summer could make!
Chloe sensed Dora before she saw her. That kind of energy, even if she was being thankfully silent, radiated in an open space. She slowly turned to looked at Dora her friend-ish person and asked bluntly, "Can I help you?" She was reading, after all. Very good stuff here. The last comic she was going to get this year because Clara wouldn't be near enough to civilization to send her one.
SPOILER!!: Hope (crimsonlion), Spencer (Savannah Granger) and Thomas (Wisher)
Pretends that this has everyone's quotes I was to lazy to go get them all
Arista hadn't meant to be late but it wasn't her fault she had to make sure she had everything packed. And by everything she meant all her shoes, because she couldn't leave home without her shoes. It was a necessity. And then she misplaced her wand...And her ferret... Whoops?! It wasn't her fault and she may have forgotten the time Thomas wanted to meet. It was an accident when her tea got all over the letter he had sent. She wished she could have seen him more during the summer she hadn't seen him after they had made up but they had been writing constantly.
Her boots clacked against the floor as she dragged her bag across the platform she had gotten through the wall easily this year which she was thankful for and now she was searching for the handsome boy she called her boyfriend. It didn't take her long to find him she shouted his name before she ran over him. Dropping her bag on the floor near him and who he was talking to, before tossing her arms around him and giving him a kiss on the cheek. Once she did that she noticed that the two friends she met in Diagon Alley were there.
"Spencer!" She let go of Thomas and gave Spencer a quick hug before turning to the girl. IT was Hope!!! She gave a squeal before putting her arms around Hope. "Eep Hope!" She released Hope and then noticed that she had been in the middle of doing something. Oh no her bag! "Oh no what happened?" The redhead had yet to notice that her arms were still wrapped around Hope's body.
Hope hurried and put everything back into her bag. In a different compartment of course! She knew her face was red, but that's just how Hope was. She was the blushing queen. She looked at Spence as he helped her. "Thank you. I am so glad you are going to be by my side because I will probably be one of the most clumsy first years that there is. It wont be pretty. I hope that you are up to the task. It's a big one! She gave him a smile. Her mood increasing with just being around Spence. And now Arista and Thomas.
Speaking of Arista, her arms were still wrapped around her like a burrito. "Hey Arista! Long time no see! She joked. She had met Arista a few days ago in WWW. She had made an instant friend. "I don't know about Thomas, but You aren't late for me!! Thomas had said she tended to be a little late, but at least she didn't miss the train!
She gave Thomas a grin as she picked on Arista for being late. "I'm glad you like them! I did bake them. I love baking! I wont get to when I get to Hogwarts so I had to get my baking fix in before we left. Plus Spence needed to try the goodness of my cooking. She laughed as she grabbed another bag of goodies out of her bag handing it to Arista. "Would you like some? I warn, They have nuts in them. And eggs."
She walked to Spencer's side and grabbed his hand as she threw her bag over her shoulder. Her suitcase was still on the ground beside them. She was excited about starting her first year. Especially if the people she met in school were as nice and as awesome as the people that were standing around her.

Teddy wouldn't spread that to everyone though. He would keep it a secret.
Confusion. He always gets that around London. “Arigatou is Japanese for Thank You.” He said beaming at the older boy. Would Teddy like to know more Japanese words? But before the 11 year old could offer, he was already whisked away to another topic.
Underpants.
“Really, Pikachu underpants?” Ryden ended up sitting on the floor, laughing his heart out. His child’s precious, isn't he? “I’ve washed your clothes and undergarments countless times Jace, and it’s my first time to see that pair.” He said in Japanese to prevent his son from further embarrassment. Still chuckling, he watched Jace almost stuff himself in the trunk, trying his best to bury the embarrassing pair of knickers. “I’m sorry Jace...really.” he said. “It was Jakub’s going away gift, that’s what it is!” Jace replied a bit annoyed, as he emerged from his trunk and folded his messed up trousers and shirts on top. “I don’t want to offend him by giving it back so I just kept it...” Jace murmured as he glanced up at Teddy, and gave him a sheepish smile. Maybe it’s a good idea that he doesn’t know how to speak in Japanese...yet.
Who is Professor Botros? Jace simply watched and listened to his friend as he continued to fix his trunk. The poor man started to forget things? “He must be really old...” Jace said, his voice trailing off, “But my ojiisan can still remember things! He can still recite the Code of the Samurai!” So...old age is not necessarily the factor, right? Maybe...maybe it’s because of the western lifestyle? Old people in Japan age gracefully...and most of the time, they have perfect memory.
Jace’s face lit up at the mention of him being a Ravenclaw. Maybe he’ll be one, right? The smile faded slowly however, “But...you will still go with me even if I don’t end up in Ravenclaw, right?” What if he ended up in Gryffindor? “How true is it that the Sorting Hat considers your wish to be in a certain house?” Jace asked, and at the same time overwhelmed with the magic placed on the Sorting Hat. The four founders were able to make an ordinary object be sentient!

The last comic she was going to get this year because Clara wouldn't be near enough to civilization to send her one.
Dora grinned at Chloe when she looked and was in no way bothered by the question. Nope. Not one bit! Peering around she saw the cover of the comic and laughed. "You keep your nose crammed in a comic all summer? " Legit question was legit and all.
"I like your hair. " Friends complimented one another, yes? YES! Reaching into her rucksack she dug for a moment and then extracted some beat up looking candy. Offering one to Chloe she simply stood there smiling. SEE SHE WASN'T LOUD ALL THE TIME!
Colt was worried about this girl. I mean she looked even kind of pale in his presence. "Are you feeling alr--" Before he even got to finish his question, he saw her faint. "Oh bloody merlin..." was his only reaction and he saw her fall into a student's legs. "Bloody merlin....hey hey stay in here with me.." he said cradling her head. He wondered if he should slap her awake or shake her. I mean he had no idea what to do. Should he call for help and draw attention to himself.
Wait a minute. He had an idea that usually worked when his cousins passed out. He got out his water bottle he had and splashed it on her. Please let it work.
Well, this was an odd series of events.
First, Jay bumped into some older kid while pacing because her sister was no where to be seen as of now. Then she collapsed due to passing out because of the tense situation it was. Now she was frantically shooting into an upright sitting position screaming because she just had water splashed on her face. If that wasn't odd...well then you're definition must be extremely different.
Shivering, the girl could barely make out "It's so- so-..." A moment past by as she finished the sentence. "Cold" Ughhhhh.
This was one of the worst days in her entire life! Jay hated being cold, wet, embarrassed, and worst of all...away from her sister! Ugh!

Until.
Chaos happened.
Someone rammed right into the cart she was sitting on. Jenna lost her balance and was knocked right off, though fortunately managing to soften her fall a little by landing on her hands. So no bumping her head or anything, thank Merlin.
Might not be able to say the same about the other person groaning on the floor though. Erm.
She pushed herself to her feet, dusting herself off. "I'm okay...I think. Are you all okay?" The kid - Benton? - looked unharmed, it was Kaleb and the other boy that she was somewhat concerned about.
"I'm Jenna," she added, since the younger boy had introduced himself and his brother.

Everything was fine except that a guy ran into him and then fell down. Luckily nothing happened to Hugo but what was wrong with the guy? Did he fainted? "Hey mate, are you okay?" before he could offer him a hand, his brother came to help him. Hugo nodded, "Yeah I'm good. What about him?" asked. He had never seen them before, maybe this was their first year at Hogwarts?
And there was also a girl. Were they doing introductions? Apparently. " I'm Hugo" Hi, hello.
They were okay, yes? That was good! He was so happy they were okay and all could be exciting again. "It's very nice to meet you both." He looked back at Kaleb to make sure his brother was alright.
"Are you two both headed to Hogwarts too? What year are you?" They were older, Benton new that, but how much older he wasn't sure. "My brother and I are going for the first time. I'm a first year. What houses are you in?" Maybe they were in Hufflepuff too? Maybe they knew Henry?"[/b] It was all just so exciting!
He looked around, "Do you have pets?" Did everyone bring a pet or was it just some. Benton wanted all the answers right away.

As she looked around, she noticed one of her dormmates not too far away from her, though she seemed a bit occupied with a younger student, a new first year maybe. She was always so kind. "Tia!" Brynn called over to her and waved a bit to get her attention. But before she could head over that way or see if the other girl had heard her, Brynn felt a tap on her shoulder.
Quickly glancing behind her where she felt the tap, she didn't immediately see anyone so she turned her whole body around. Her slightly confused look turned into a wide grin. "Keegan! Hi!" She threw her arms around him, giving him a hug. "I was just looking for you... did you just get here?" Now she wouldn't have to worry about looking for him to sit with him on the train.
Brynn was just so cute. She was so soft spoken. Adorable.
Keegan grinned as she finally saw him after turning her whole body around to see him. Her arms went over his shoulders. His arms went around her waist and he picked her up in a hug and twirled her about. He twirled her one full then before setting her back on her feet and kissing her cheek. He's just seen her. Not too long ago but everytime they saw each other, it was like they hadn't seen each other in years.
"Were you?? I spied you a few minutes ago. I stopped to admire before coming over. How are you? Ready for your last year?" He asked as his arm went around her shoulders.
Keegan still work his bottle capped necklace from years ago. He had made Brynn one too. She saw it peeking out of her collar and he couldn't help but grin wider. "I think I've decided on a school." He had been looking non-stop since their previous conversation. His aunts both helping.
But they could talk more about that on the train.

"H-hi.." Jessie stuttered. " N-no.. It`s my fault. Umm...Yeah.This is my first time here."
Jessie observed the boy in front of her. He seemed to be friendly. Didn`t mad after Jessie `accidentally` bumped into him. That`s make her relieved. Could she trust him ?
" I`m new here. Could you help me,please ? My mom leaving early. I dunno what should I do next. B-but if that don`t bother you ..."

It was going to be a good one, too, because she HAD to get on that train with Charlotte and Callum, even if she ended up throwing a tantrum right HERE to prove it.
Had. To. Go. They were hers and they belonged together and it was NOT FAIR.
"I want to go on the train, Mummy." She swung her mother's hand lightly, just to see if anything had changed. She wanted to GO WITH. "Please? With Cawwum and Charwotte?" Cope was glad once they made it through the barrier, and he could stop pretending like it wasn't easier to float the trunks along side his family. He kept a pace back, all the better to keep an eye on Charlotte and to see how Callum was soldiering on. And to watch the sulky little hunch to Chloe that meant she needed some attention all her own. Soon.
"Cela." He wouldn't even chide Chloe for her baby talk, although he wanted to remind her she was a big girl. "Callum, come walk with me for a moment." His Little Man, all grown up.
Celandine was aware of her youngest, the dragging on her hand, the pouting, and of course the baby talk. She shot a little reassuring look over her shoulder at the husband and let go of Callum's hand, turning her attention to her little Chloworm.
"It will be your turn soon enough, Chloworm, but then I'll be all alone! And if you want to know a secret-" Cela looked around and then crouched down, speaking in a half-whisper to her daughter, "-I have been looking forward to spending lots of time with just you. I thought when we got home we could have Bambou help us with some baking. And because Callum isn't going to be home to look after Pip, I thought maybe you might be big enough to remember to feed him and take him for walks."
What did she say? Tempting?
SPOILER!!: Callum and Copernicus aww

Callum looked up at his mum at her gentle chiding of Char, then at his pouting not-so-baby sister until his father called for him. Wordlessly and without question, he dropped his mother's hand and swung back to walk with him instead.
"Will you be okay while I'm gone, Dad? Not going to miss me too much?" His bright blue eyes were soft with a hint of good humor shining through at his words, and he gave him an expectant smile. Surely his father would survive just fine as the lone man of the house now, but Callum knew better than to think he would not be missed.[/color]

He didn't like the way the world felt without her in it, even if he knew that she was happy and learning and needed to be gone. And it would be worse to have Callum gone. Chloe was going to be a handful, for sure, but more than that... Charlotte was outgoing and gregarious. She made friends easily and didn't care if she didn't. Callum was the Little Man. He would deal with all the things Cope had dealt with, all the struggles and doubts and worries. It was a lot to imagine carried on those bird wing shoulders.
"We might move to Egypt while you're gone. Take up with the mummies properly and bring so much sand into the house every day that your mother throws a fit." He placed a broad, callused hand on the top of Callum's head and shook him gently. "I'll owl you in a few days and let you know if we miss you, though. I haven't decided yet." Jokes. Jokes meant Cope was uncomfortable with what he was feeling. He should have left Callum to Cela.
Okay but what even were they doiiiiing over there? Because yes Char had heard her mum say something about going to help her dad with the trunks but there were WAY more fun things to do and they needed to go RIGHT DOWN THE END OF THE PLATFORM so that they would be the first ones to see the express when it arrived!
OH HEY LOOK THERE WERE SOME OF HER FRIENDS! Torn. TORN. Char was immediately torn. THEY WERE EVERYWHERE IN FACT. Honestly, people needed to stand in one big group so that she wouldn't be stuck looking this way and that, swaying a bit, hopping from foot to foot, clearly unsure who to say hi to first and who to go bother about summers and--
"Charlotte! Stay in sight!"
Char put down that one foot that had been hovering to take a step in the general direction of out of sight and wrinkled her nose at her mother. Well fine then! Fine! She would stay in sight.... and just talk to her friends from here! "HI EVERYONE! HI!"Maybe she should climb up a pole so she could be SEEN as well as heard? Yes, good idea! Charlotte monkeyed up a post and waved enthusiastically at every single one of her friends and yearmates that she could spot in the growing crowds.
"Hellooooo!"

SEEEE Dora had had faith in Chloe's hair, she had! Okay... not much, but she was so glad to see it was somewhat tamed now and that her FRIEND was seemingly more confident? She was, wasn't she?
"THANKS! " Okay that had been a bit loud... and Dora stepped back a bit when she realized it. She had been making an effort to be a bit calmer lately and her Daddy had gone to so much trouble to sort her potions out and the like (per her own request). "It's not always easy, though. I have to do things to it. "
Aaaand speaking of loud... apparently Charlotte had arrived. Turning in her direction, Dora gave her, her mum, and dad a slight wave and a toothy grin. Dora really liked her parents, too!
Henric smiled kindly,"Sure, you come to the right person!" he chuckled as he showed her his prefect badge pinned on top of his collar. "What do you need help with? I'm happy to help. Hmm...let's see, how about I'll show you where you can put your school trunks first, come on...I'm heading towards the luggage compartment area myself, you can follow me if you want. " He smiled.

"Woaa...nice badge! But sorry, what kind of badge is that?You look so proud with that." Jessie asked innocently (with a little of evil grin XD)
"I am Jessie,bytheway. Jeslyn Chambell. It's not only first time I am here. I am used to live in outside of Britain before "
Now Jessie found her bravery.
"So you are in Hufflepuff,Henric? And do you have your own compartment? I guess you're famous student in Hogwarts." Jessie talked fast. She adored the way Henric grin.
"I am courious with my future house. But mom always said that they will put me into Slytherin." Jeslyn pouted " Thats not fair! Just because I've stoic face, they always misunderstanding me. Not my fault to have this awesome face." Jeslyn laughed.
"I am glad that you're the first student I meet here,Mr. Badge" the girl chuckled " I think I'm ready for Hogwarts! Lets be fried" the petite girl gave her hand to shake.

It'd be soooooo amazing. Everyone else can do proper magic but me." And her oaf of a brother didn't EVEN want to. How was it fair?
And there she was listing all the absolutely amazing things you can do with magic! "I like apparition! Mummy didn't want Daddy apparating me and Blaise places til we were like six 'cause she worries so much but it's amazing. You blink and you're there!!" From the corner of her eyes, she saw the quill scribbling away as she spoke and it got her grinning widely. "Hey Katherine, say something funny!" Do it! Do it! Do it! The quill was bound to make it funnier.
"Blaise can you copy the pages for me before you leave? I wanna keep them."
This conversation wasn't making him feel better in the least bit. Why'd they have to talk about magic of all things and about the school he didn't wanna go back to? Before he could even answer a question directed at HIM there went Julie rambling off again so he just kinda shrugged and nodded toward her. Whatever she said.
"The guy at the wand shop gave me this salve that's meant to make her listen more and it's kinda working but I dunno. Still think I'd do better with another wand. She casts the water spell just fine most times actually...I just don't know why...." Thirsty wand? Spiteful wand that knew he hardly needed aguamenti? Who really knew.
Inspite of his situation, Blaise allowed himself a grin that slowly crept onto his face, displaying his dimples proudly. "How ya gonna make me like the castle more?" The way he saw it, he had two options; stand her and mope then mope on the train and mope at the feast then mope on the way to the Common Room and mope during the party OR he could do exactly what he did last year...pretend he didn't need magic and enjoy life. The second sounded more appealing despite his father's chiding. "And sure, Jules, we'll get mum to do it when she gets here." Because HE wasn't going to make a fool of himself. Nope.
Bentley was grinning was from ear to ear as he made his way to the platform. Going back was made more satisfying by the fact that his brother Heath was completely jealous of him. The proof was in his little brother's pouted lips and crossed arms. He kept muttering how stupid Hogwarts was over and over, after of course listening in awe to the stories Bentley told of the adventures he had with their cousin Blaise (most of which were made up but still).
Bentley looked back at his mother who was trailing behind because Belle insisted on walking the whole way. Why did his baby sister insist on walking? At her pace, they'd miss the train. Which he was sure, Heath was secretly wishing would happen.
"Come on mummy! We're going to be late!" He called over his shoulder.
"Blaise!" So his cousin had beat him to the platform...again! Ugh...thanks a lot Belle!
Rhea was walking a long patiently at Belle's pace. She admired the independence that her three year old daughter was showing. What she didn't appreciate however were the 101 questions that she had to answer on the way there. "Mummy what is that? But Why? Why? Why?" It was enough to drive her batty.
"Patience Bentley. The train won't be here for another few minutes. What's the hurry?"
Finally Belle was over walking, so she stopped and held her hands up for her mother to pick her up. Rhea happily obliged.
"Oh hello Blaise. Where are your parents?" She asked looking around.

Brynn was just so cute. She was so soft spoken. Adorable.
Keegan grinned as she finally saw him after turning her whole body around to see him. Her arms went over his shoulders. His arms went around her waist and he picked her up in a hug and twirled her about. He twirled her one full then before setting her back on her feet and kissing her cheek. He's just seen her. Not too long ago but everytime they saw each other, it was like they hadn't seen each other in years.
"Were you?? I spied you a few minutes ago. I stopped to admire before coming over. How are you? Ready for your last year?" He asked as his arm went around her shoulders.
Keegan still work his bottle capped necklace from years ago. He had made Brynn one too. She saw it peeking out of her collar and he couldn't help but grin wider. "I think I've decided on a school." He had been looking non-stop since their previous conversation. His aunts both helping.
But they could talk more about that on the train.
Brynn grinned and squealed a bit as Keegan picked her up and spun her around. Her boyfriend was so fun and amazing. And she beamed at him as he kissed her cheek. She was in a much better mood now and she didn't care right now if she saw anyone else she knew. Though of course she would be friendly if she did. That was just the way Brynn was.
She gave Keegan a shy little smile and blushed at his words. Even if he was her boyfriend, she did not always take compliments well being a little on the shy side. "You did? Well, yeah, I was looking around some, but I'm glad I found you before the train got here.. or rather you found me." She would be pretty sad if they hadn't sat together but she didn't have to worry about that now. "I'm doing alright now, but I guess I'm a little nervous about it being our seventh year," she admitted. It meant the start of responsibilities and preparing for adulthood, even if she was technically Of Age now. It was all still a little scary. "But I think it will be fun too," she added with a grin. She was going to make sure of that.
He decided on a school? That was great news and her grin reflected that. "You did? Where have you decided?" She wanted to hear all about his plans.

SEEEE Dora had had faith in Chloe's hair, she had! Okay... not much, but she was so glad to see it was somewhat tamed now and that her FRIEND was seemingly more confident? She was, wasn't she?
"THANKS! " Okay that had been a bit loud... and Dora stepped back a bit when she realized it. She had been making an effort to be a bit calmer lately and her Daddy had gone to so much trouble to sort her potions out and the like (per her own request). "It's not always easy, though. I have to do things to it. "
Aaaand speaking of loud... apparently Charlotte had arrived. Turning in her direction, Dora gave her, her mum, and dad a slight wave and a toothy grin. Dora really liked her parents, too!
Chloe wasn't necessarily giving Dora a judgey look but it was kind of there. She had to do things to her hair? That was so much easier and so much better than the mop that Chloe was left to attend to, duh. The blonde tried not to look judgey but oh man oh man. Poor Dora had regular hair to deal with and regular hair problems.
She glanced over to where Dora was waving and smiled at the person. The face looked familiar. No doubt they had classes together but Chloe didnt know much of anyone. Her fault. She was working on it.

Underpants.
“Really, Pikachu underpants?” Ryden ended up sitting on the floor, laughing his heart out. His child’s precious, isn't he? “I’ve washed your clothes and undergarments countless times Jace, and it’s my first time to see that pair.” He said in Japanese to prevent his son from further embarrassment. Still chuckling, he watched Jace almost stuff himself in the trunk, trying his best to bury the embarrassing pair of knickers. “I’m sorry Jace...really.” he said. “It was Jakub’s going away gift, that’s what it is!” Jace replied a bit annoyed, as he emerged from his trunk and folded his messed up trousers and shirts on top. “I don’t want to offend him by giving it back so I just kept it...” Jace murmured as he glanced up at Teddy, and gave him a sheepish smile. Maybe it’s a good idea that he doesn’t know how to speak in Japanese...yet.
Who is Professor Botros? Jace simply watched and listened to his friend as he continued to fix his trunk. The poor man started to forget things? “He must be really old...” Jace said, his voice trailing off, “But my ojiisan can still remember things! He can still recite the Code of the Samurai!” So...old age is not necessarily the factor, right? Maybe...maybe it’s because of the western lifestyle? Old people in Japan age gracefully...and most of the time, they have perfect memory.
Jace’s face lit up at the mention of him being a Ravenclaw. Maybe he’ll be one, right? The smile faded slowly however, “But...you will still go with me even if I don’t end up in Ravenclaw, right?” What if he ended up in Gryffindor? “How true is it that the Sorting Hat considers your wish to be in a certain house?” Jace asked, and at the same time overwhelmed with the magic placed on the Sorting Hat. The four founders were able to make an ordinary object be sentient!
"OH! Arigatou. I'll have to remember that." He wished he had a notepad he could write it down on. He'd like to be able to speak to Jace in Japanese. At least a few words. Arigatou was the first word he learned.
Teddy was still giggling into his hands, wondering what a Pikachu was, and finding it even funnier that Mr. Ryden was also laughing. Teddy smiled, returning Jace's. "I... wear underpants too Jace," he said with a shrug. He would have been pretty embarrassed his his came out of his trunk in front of people. It didn't appear that many, or anyone, had seen, thankfully.
"He was, I think. He looked old, but I don't know how old. Probably almost a hundred, I'd say." ....Teddy raised an eyebrow. "A... Ojisan? what's that?" Drats, why DIDN'T he bring a notepad. He knew what a samurai was...well, he sort of did.
Teddy nodded. "Of course!" He absolutely would. All of the houses had good people, he was sure. He hadn't met them all, but he was sure they existed. Teddy thought about that. "Well... my family always said that I would be in Ravenclaw, and Ava would be in Gryffindor, and they were right. I think my personality suits Ravenclaw. But my entire family, besides us, were Slytherin. I think... I think if you really wanted to be in a certain house, as long as you would suit that house, it would listen."

Keegan knew Byrnn was shy which is why he didn't full out kiss her on the lips in front of all the students and families on the platform. He, of course, had no problem with a little bit of PDA but she, was very meticulous with how they acted in public.
He grinned as she blushed and gave him a shy smile. His arm went around her shoulders as he surveyed the crowd around them on the platform as he listened to her. "Now you know i would have gone to find you to sit with you on the train if I had to. You're my favorite person and starting out at our last year, we have to do it right. And that meant spending as much time as possible with each other.
"i have. But first, you said you were going to WADA right?" Keegan wasn't sure if there were more locations than just London with WADA. Maybe that's something they needed to talk about.
And also, one of Keegan's favorite things.
Food.
"Also, I'm so hungry I could eat a Hippogriff. When's the train boarding?? I need to visit the trolley lady. "
Priorities.

Hope hurried and put everything back into her bag. In a different compartment of course! She knew her face was red, but that's just how Hope was. She was the blushing queen. She looked at Spence as he helped her. "Thank you. I am so glad you are going to be by my side because I will probably be one of the most clumsy first years that there is. It wont be pretty. I hope that you are up to the task. It's a big one! She gave him a smile. Her mood increasing with just being around Spence. And now Arista and Thomas.
Speaking of Arista, her arms were still wrapped around her like a burrito. "Hey Arista! Long time no see! She joked. She had met Arista a few days ago in WWW. She had made an instant friend. "I don't know about Thomas, but You aren't late for me!! Thomas had said she tended to be a little late, but at least she didn't miss the train!
She gave Thomas a grin as she picked on Arista for being late. "I'm glad you like them! I did bake them. I love baking! I wont get to when I get to Hogwarts so I had to get my baking fix in before we left. Plus Spence needed to try the goodness of my cooking. She laughed as she grabbed another bag of goodies out of her bag handing it to Arista. "Would you like some? I warn, They have nuts in them. And eggs."
She walked to Spencer's side and grabbed his hand as she threw her bag over her shoulder. Her suitcase was still on the ground beside them. She was excited about starting her first year. Especially if the people she met in school were as nice and as awesome as the people that were standing around her.
Spencer laughed and smiled at her. "I up to the task, and I'm sure you'll be fine, like I said we're first years we're suppose to be clumsy! "said Spencer winking at her. "Besides I heard not many people pay attention to first years, so we can be as clumsy as we want and we won't get in trouble for it ccause we didn't know!"said Spencer chuckling. "I'm sure I'll be clumsy myself once we get to Hogwarts, so we'll be clumsy together. " said Spencer giving her a soft warm smile. Spencer was glad that she was feeling a bit better, he was worried about her the past couple of days, he was glad that she was ok.
Spencer looked at Arista and smiled at her. "I'll say that you're early, at least you're not running to get on the train, that would be horrible! "said Spencer. Spencer met her in the robe shop, she was very nice despite her age, Spencer seen her as a older sister that he didn't have. "I'm so excited but nervous to go to Hogwarts, I can't wait to see what house I'm sorted into!"said Spencer. Spencer didn't mind what house he was sorted into, he heard all of them were great in there own ways, but he really wanted Gryffindor.
Spencer laughed. "She's right about that, I had to taste goodness of her cooking, and I'll probably get fat eating all the stuff she bakes over time! "said Spencer jokingly before chuckling. "There very good, you got to try some Arista, probably the best brownies I had besides my mother's. "said Spencer honestly. Spencer ate the rest of his brownie deciding to save the rest for later. They were early and Spencer was quite hungry, he didn't have much time to eat before his mother rushed him and his brothers out the door.
Spencer felt hope intertwined her hand in his, he gave it a gentle squeeze and gave her her a soft warm smile. He couldn't wait to go to Hogwarts, he couldn't wait to make new friends and start using magic, it was going to be a great year!

"Woaa...nice badge! But sorry, what kind of badge is that?You look so proud with that." Jessie asked innocently (with a little of evil grin XD)
"I am Jessie,bytheway. Jeslyn Chambell. It's not only first time I am here. I am used to live in outside of Britain before "
Now Jessie found her bravery.
"So you are in Hufflepuff,Henric? And do you have your own compartment? I guess you're famous student in Hogwarts." Jessie talked fast. She adored the way Henric grin.
"I am courious with my future house. But mom always said that they will put me into Slytherin." Jeslyn pouted " Thats not fair! Just because I've stoic face, they always misunderstanding me. Not my fault to have this awesome face." Jeslyn laughed.
"I am glad that you're the first student I meet here,Mr. Badge" the girl chuckled " I think I'm ready for Hogwarts! Lets be fried" the petite girl gave her hand to shake.
Henric was all too happy to answer her."Why this here is a prefect badge, more specifically, I'm a newly appointed Hufflepuff prefect this term. One of my duties is to help new students finding their way around school."
"Nice to meet you, Jessie. Oh you did? You'll like it here soon enough. Its just the weather you'll need to get used to," he smiled. He wondered where she lived before coming to Britain. "Yes I am from Hufflepuff, greatest house there is." He chuckled. "I'm kidding, but it is to me. Me, famous? No I'm not Jessie. Just a normal guy who happens to have a prefect badge. Haha! Hmm...I guess we have a prefect's compartment but I don't think its anything special really," he replied her bluntly. The reason was because he rather sit with his girlfriend all the train ride away to Hogwarts.
"Slytherin is a great house! And so are the other houses. You don't have to worry young Jessie, I'm sure the sorting hat will put you in the right house for you, I was almost sorted into there but he knows I'll be brilliant in Hufflepuff. What's important is that you have to be true to yourself," he told her, giving her a thumbs up.
"Well I am glad! Of course! Why not? I'll be your friend,"he laughed, amused at her bubbly nature and shook her hand happily. "I'll do my best to show you around Hogwarts too!"
First, Jay bumped into some older kid while pacing because her sister was no where to be seen as of now. Then she collapsed due to passing out because of the tense situation it was. Now she was frantically shooting into an upright sitting position screaming because she just had water splashed on her face. If that wasn't odd...well then you're definition must be extremely different.
Shivering, the girl could barely make out "It's so- so-..." A moment past by as she finished the sentence. "Cold" Ughhhhh.
This was one of the worst days in her entire life! Jay hated being cold, wet, embarrassed, and worst of all...away from her sister! Ugh!
Colt remembered it was cold water he poured onto the little girl. "Oh bloody merlin.." he said under his breath. He thought quick and shook off his jacket and wiped her off a little bit. "Here a little bit better?" he asked her. He didn't want to suffocate the poor girl. He dapped her lightly to get the water off her. Jesus what did he get himself into. He didn't think this girl would faint on him that is for sure. He was going to stay with her till she could get up onto her two feet. She even looked embarrassed. He smiled warmly to try and diffuse the situation awkwardness, "Listen it is fine. Did you eat anything today? Usually you faint from not having enough food.." Lord knows he had that happen to him when he was playing sports back at home. He was playing lacrosse with his mates and he realized he didn't eat and he felt light headed and just passed out onto the field.
Henric was all too happy to answer her."Why this here is a prefect badge, more specifically, I'm a newly appointed Hufflepuff prefect this term. One of my duties is to help new students finding their way around school."
"Nice to meet you, Jessie. Oh you did? You'll like it here soon enough. Its just the weather you'll need to get used to," he smiled. He wondered where she lived before coming to Britain. "Yes I am from Hufflepuff, greatest house there is." He chuckled. "I'm kidding, but it is to me. Me, famous? No I'm not Jessie. Just a normal guy who happens to have a prefect badge. Haha! Hmm...I guess we have a prefect's compartment but I don't think its anything special really," he replied her bluntly. The reason was because he rather sit with his girlfriend all the train ride away to Hogwarts.
"Slytherin is a great house! And so are the other houses. You don't have to worry young Jessie, I'm sure the sorting hat will put you in the right house for you, I was almost sorted into there but he knows I'll be brilliant in Hufflepuff. What's important is that you have to be true to yourself," he told her, giving her a thumbs up.
"Well I am glad! Of course! Why not? I'll be your friend,"he laughed, amused at her bubbly nature and shook her hand happily. "I'll do my best to show you around Hogwarts too!"
"You are a prefect?Waaaa..... I wanna be a prefect in my future!Look so cool." said Jessie histerically .
"I am so excited now. So many things I wanna di in Hogwarts. First, getting sorted into great house." Jessie laughed "Of course Slytherin is as great as another houses.But I mean you-know-who was from there."
Jessie glanced at Henric.Her cheeks suddenly blushed.
"And I wanna join into quidditch team If I can. You know Oliver Wood? the greates quidditch player from Puddlemore United? He`s my idol! And I heard that He was from Gryffindor!"
" And about the compartemen,Henric. Maybe I will look for my own compartement. The prefect like you must have *cough* fans *cough* . If you know what I mean." Jessie laughed.
" I am very happy to have great friend like you, Henric."
