Jen laughed. "yeah that would be interesting, but I would also hate it if the competition between us costs our friendship..." Jen certainly did not want that.

Simon looked for an empty seat.It was impossible to find one.There were people everywhere.Than he saw Amelie going off somewhere.Than he remembered the incident in Diagon Alley.His nose was still sore , after Jay had elbowed him twice to the nose.Simon thought about saying 'sorry' to Jay , and maybe to Amelie.But it was hard to say sorry to Amelie...Wait a minute...She caused it all.It was her fault that the fight at Diagon Alley happened.He found an empty seat...finally.He took out a book , a piece of paper and a quill.He started writing...

Father,
I'm sorry for me not coming home.It was all because this girl I told you about.Remember , Amelie? Well , that's why I stayed in Diagon Alley when I should come back home.Anyway , she dumped me.Yes , she just said 'I don't want to go out with you' and than said sorry.I've a feeling she dumped 'cause of another boy.Well anyway-
He looked at his letter.Why was he telling father about his personal life? Well he didn't care anymore...

- how is mum?I've a feeling she isn't too good.She's worried , isn't she? Well , I hope she gets well.Well I better get going...

PS. I'm trying to find out which boy Amelie dumped me for.

Lots of Love.
Simon.

He took Chelsea ( his owl ) out of the cage gave her the letter and said "This has to go to my father". He opened a window.The wind was huge.Chelsea flew out.He closed the window and took out his potions book and began to read.

Maddie looked into the compartment next to her, and saw Simon there on his own.
'Hi' she said gently 'Are you OK?'

Jen smiled at him. "you wouldn't mind that would you? I want someone with me that makes you happy and you certainly do that." she winked at him.

"Great..." he thought."Well yeah , I'm trying to get over what happened in Diagon Alley." he said."And I guess you're ok , aren't you?" he asked.And without waiting for an answer he started reading his book again...

Keeley snapped back to reality at her friend's question. Actually, more like questions. The pale girl picked up her fat old cat, stroking her as she replied, "This is Aphrodite. I think I got it from a Greek Mythology book or something, but it sounded pretty to me." Yepp, yess it didd. She nodded excitedly, saying, "Question away."

'Simon, please' she said 'Stop ignoring me. I didn't start a fight and hit your friend in the stomach, did I? Why would you do that to Jay?'

"O my god..." he thought."He told me , that I was the one who was going to break up with you.He told me , that I was just your boyfriend because I wanted to dump you.Like , you dumped me..." he said without taking his eyes off his book.

'Jay told me he didn't mean it' said Maddie, kind of angry now 'He was just angry because you were shouting at me, and he's one of my best friends. Then you hit him.' she was really upset now.

"Will she ever go away?" he thought."Just stop it , okay? How should I know he didn't mean it? Think normal , Amelie..." he said finally taking his eyes off the book."Just tell me why did you break up with me"he said , knowing the answer.She was getting annoying , and Simon wanted to finish this interesting chapter in the potions book.

'Fine' she said. God, she was in the same house as him. They would have to be sharing a common room. 'My father set mee up with a boy named Sye Montaris. And I really like him!'

Though , Simon knew the answer it came as a shock that she told him that.Simon had a plan , but he couldn't let himself beat that Sye guy.Than he asked " You liked him more than me?" He was ready to take the answer , even if it was 'yes'.

'Kind of' she said 'But I had to go out with him anyway. I didn't matter who I liked.'

He had thoughts racing in his head.He couldn't say anything.Instead he looked at his book and started to read.Simon was upset , and he wasn't bothered telling this to Amelie.She wouldn't care.She'll just go 'I'll have to go , Sye is waiting for me' or something...

'Simon, stop ignoring me!' she said, really kind of upset now.

" Why should I stop ignoring you?"he asked , with his tone rising."What should I say? "Oh well done Amelie , I hope you get married with SYE" That's what should I SAY?" he asked."Listen , I had a shock of you dumping me.And I'm still upset." he said calming down...

'I understand that you're upset' she aid 'And I'm sorry! I'm sorry, OK!' and with that, she walked out. She just couldn't handle this.

"Finally..." he thought.But something strange happened.He stared crying...He covered his face with his potions book.Why was he crying? Did he still like Amelie?

Melissa walked with into the back. She needed to find Simon, she needed to find him to apologi-, wait BINGO! She found him, with a potions book...crying? Oh no. She carefully opened the door trying to to disturb him. "Er, Simon?" she spoke looking at him.

"Nice to meet you, JP." Miranda smiled, deciding to introduce herself aswell. "I'm Miranda BelCanto." Oh a first year! "Oh, well then you have 7 wonderful years at Hogwarts..." Sigh. A fond smile was visible on her lips.

Aw, the girl seemed enthusiastic. "Nice to meet you too, Melissa!" Schweet! "A first year! How are you liking it so far? Train ride's pretty exciting, huh?" Miranda snorted, remembering her first Hogwarts Express ride, and knowing how awesome it was even though it was just a train ride.

Miranda's head jerked from the young girl to...Wesley!?
In a milisecond, the Captain was sitting besides the girl, her arm wrapped around in a semi-hug. "Wesley, are you okay??" She asked in a calm and soft tone (no need to freak the girl out more).

Hesitating at the question, Miranda took a moment before answering, "Yes...we are very much alive." Errr, right? Gah, no time to freak out Miranda!

Looking from Weslye to Melissa with WIDE eyes, they grew even wider with the notion that Wesley had FAINTED! Oh my gosh... Why had she fainted??

Though, the way Wesley was taking this whole thing made Miranda regard her for a moment. Are you sure?
"Do you remember what you did...or were, before you..." she didn't want to say fainted, "...don't remember anymore?" Heh, weird question, ey?

Info!!
Miranda's eyes still flitted between Melissa and Wesley. Something fishy was going on here...and the Captain was going to find out what it was.

HEhehehe.

He quickly put down the book and tried to pretend nothing happened."Ehm , Hi Lissa"

Melissa smiled at nodded at the girl. Cool! "It's good, although, I can't wait for Quidditch that has to be the thing I can't wait for the most," she seriously was liking Quidditch more every minute she spent on the train. "Yeah, met some awesome people, it's good," she nodded, it sunk in ages ago the excitement.

Seeing the interaction with Miranda and Wesley made her wonder, looks like she has got it under control. Melissa hoped. "She sorta collapsed in the hallway near her trunk. I think she needs sleep or her trunk was hard to move," it was hard, she knew she dragged it to here!

OOC - Next compartment.

"Hey Simon, you okay?" Lissa spoke softly to him. He seemed erm, upset.

Leila walked in on two people arguing. As the person she had asked previously had not answered she had assumed that they were waiting for someone else. She tried to make herself thin as a girl stormed out of a compartment. Leila walked into the compartment and wished she hadn't, in there was a boy crying. "I'm sorry if I'm disturbing you. Mind if I sit in here?" She asked, her thick accent only highlighted her guilt. "Hang on, I've got some handkerchiefs in here." She rummaged in her trunk and then she managed to find a packet of paper tissues. "Here you go. I'm Leila and you are?"

"Yes , I'm f-fine..." lied Simon.He wasn't fine , at all."How are you?" asked Simon trying to change the subject.

"Yeah , don't trouble yourself.I'm Simon.And thanks I don't need handkerchiefs. he said , his voice rusty.He looked at the girl.She seemed alright.

Maddie walked back into the compartment where her and Simon had been
'Look, Simon' she said 'I'm so sorry about earlier. Can't we just be friends? I'd really like that...'
