Lori smiled back in return, leaning further into the window and her banana. This was how it should be, forever. Because she couldn't be bothered at all with sadness and rubbish toot. It was all so depressing. And besides, why was SHE sad, it wasn't like she was loosing anything. She was telling herself that, now. Much easier.

"He'd like to meet you.... He'll probably be with me and Ad most of the time this summer, and then after we graduate. Well, i'm hoping he will be." It would be nice though.

Aww. She looked so adorable snuggling with her banana. In fact, he would take a picture of it if he could...

"Is he going to be coming to the Dominican with us?" He wasn't sure who was going there really. Well, him and Brody - or he hoped Brody was still. He also had no idea how old Donnie was now; he had never asked.

Lori watched the window again, taking her eyes off Torin just for a moment, and she smiled. Smiled at the sight of SHEEP! Like, sheep all in one field, and some horsies. It was all so loving and cute.

"No. His mum and da-- adoptive parents wont let me. I'm not responsible enough to take him, and neither is Ad. Soooo.... we're taking him to some muggle place called Butlins for a week when we get back. Or so, I am... I dont know if Ad's coming with us or not, I never asked him." Siiiiigh.

He looked out the window as what she was watching. "You know, I have a pet sheep. And a goat. And a horse." And they were all amazing. But he wouldn't be able to have them in New York, and that made him sad. Someone else would be able to care for them though. He would see them when he could,.

"Where is Butlins? I've never heard of it before." Obviously it was somewhere in England, because he couldn't think of anywhere else it would be. He still didn't know all of this place, and that was weird. He traveled abroad more than anything.

Anniebell Weasley enters the first carriage to see if there is any free spaces at all and does't see where she is walking and accidently walks into an other compartment door with out reason two people are int here all ready and turns round to appoligise sorry she says May you help me she mumbles

Cameron grinned and shrugged. "I'm sure if you followed Kane around you'd find some your own age." The prefect had had a gaggle of crying girls around him at the Feast. Cam had been kinda overwhelmed by the waterworks. It was really weird..
She'd miss him.. but tears? Really?

And anyway.. "I'm half your height," She mused with a side-glance up at him.

Cameron looked up at him with a rather pleading expression, "Oliver.. you have to come. First of all, I'm going to miss you - which obviously should be your first priority cos I'm speshal and all and anything could happen if I'm left alone to long," She eyed him and let out a bubbly laugh, "And twoo, if I have to endure one more conversation about different chemicals that ensure the best cultivation of a freaking shitaki I think I will go and move in with the Squid."

Ya. Now he had to come.

As Oliver explained his forthcoming hell, she sighed. She didn't think the location of his house would be his worst problem - rather his father but she smirked, "Sure he isn't a vampire? Maybe he likes the lack of sunlight." *grin* Oooh! Cornwall! "Surfing?" That sounded like funzorz and Cornwall was awesome.

But in all her inward planning of a holiday where she'd get away from her parents for a week or so, she hadn't noticed a little ickle friend that was also in the compartment.. on Oliver's leg.

She leapt out of the seat and gaped at the little furry thing. She HATED spiders. They were hairy and icky and just plain BLEUGH.

Why did he have a SPIDER!?!?!?!

His question made her gawk at him. What was it? "The- the- " It turned it's eight eyes on her and she squeaked and started to back towards the door.

Calm down? Her eyes widened as she stared at him and then he picked it up. "Why are you HOLDING eeet! It gunna BITE you!?" She pressed herself against the back wall unless spidey could jump or sumfat. And then he took her hand - with fat, ugly, hairy spidey in the other. She blanked him, shook him off and moved into the corner so spidey was as far away from her as possible.
"The matter.." She breathed, "The matter.." Oh merlin.. she couldn't breathe.

*hyperventilate*

It was CLOSE! It was gunna EAT HER!

"I DON'T LIKE SPIDERS!" She squeaked, her face going a slightly green colour and her eyes watering. She didn't LIKE SPIDEYS!

And he, the one who was holding the freaking grey monster, was looking at her, like SHE was crazy.

-_________________________________-

Oliver pulled a face at the mention of Torin Kane and his band of merry fangirls. Seriously, what did that dude have that Oliver didn't? He smirked and turned his head to look at Cameron. “That's cos you're a midget.” He replied with fond sarcasm and touched his nose to hers. Cutie pie that she was.

Woah.. the girl was actually being completely serious. No trace of sarcasm when she said she would miss him. And she was right, hell she was soo special to him. “Well if you put it that way...” He said with thoughtful expression. “...I guess I can't say 'no'.” He smiled broadly when she laughed like that. He loved to hear her laugh so genuinely. “Shitaki?” He asked bemused. “I thought your hippy dad was into organic growing... no chemicals.” heh! “Hey just think of the amazing conversation you and Barty H can have.” Wink. Cos the squid could talk!

He shook his head and smiled. “I'm pretty certain. We live in Cornwall where there's a lot of sunlight. It's just people he loathes.” Crazy old git. He nodded – yeah, surfing. “I can show you how.” He offered.

OH! The TARANTULA! Oliver let go of Cam's hand at the same time as she backed into the corner. He looked at her with bemused amusement. “It's not gonna bite me.” He replied calmly. “This is Mrs Spider.” He said holding his palm with the spider on it towards Cam. Merlin... she did seem scared. “I thought you two had met before.” He said puzzled.

Crikey. Girl was hyperventilating. Oliver swiftly and gently placed Mrs Spider on his seat and pulled his bag down from the luggage rack. He pulled out a small see through box with air holes and a few crickets in the bottom and carefully placed Mrs Spider inside and closed the lid. She could stay there happily for the remainder of the journey.

“She wouldn't have harmed you anyway.” He said casually and sat back down again, smirking amusidly over at the redhead who was cowering in the corner.

"From Bradin I see", said Ginny to Aiden.

"Yeah, your right. I've heard a bit about Aiden", repiled Ginny to Bradin.

Cameron snickered at the look on Oliver's face at the mention of Torin. "D'aww, no worries sweets, I'm sure he can spare one or two for you. Maybe even Brody for an hour?" She giggled mercilessly and poked him in the side.
But it disappeared when he called her a midget. MIDGET! She pouted. "Jus' 'cos you're a giant, tall.. mean person." She didn't like being short. She crinkled up her nose and eyed him childishly. "No fair." Why did he get to be all tall and handsome and have a charming personality and she had to be short and socially awkward and average looking?

So unfair.

Cameron waited patiently for a response, wide-eyed. Wrong answer and he would suffer a bad fate. She eyed him and grinned at his answer, "Correctamundo. So you'll come visit then?" That'd be exciting. Oh, her parents would freak. It'd be FUNNEH!
The red-head glared at him, "He might not believe in our magic, but he believes in the magic of fertiliser." It was the perpetual paradox, she'd never understand. She rolled her eyes at his reply about Barty. The squid couldn't talk. "About as good as the conversation is with you," She muttered sarcastically.

"People? S'what why the git have so many children? Keep him company?" She frowned. Oliver teach her how to surf? Eh.. that was going to be extremely embarassing. "Um.. yeah.. maybe on land first, eh?" Just for the co-ordination and all.

HE THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNNY!? Cam glared at him ferociously and pressed herself firmly against the wall. Evil, giant, meanie. He KNEW she didn't like them. "Fine then! Let it suck your blood and inject it's evil poison stuff into you!" She spluttered hysterically. Was he crazy! Spidey's were EEEEVVVVIIIIIIIIIIILL.

*gasp*

"M-m-mrs.. Spider? I-it has a n-name?" He'd named the monster with eight eyes? He was crazy! He was lost! The spidey had sucked out his brains and put it's own crazy stuff in there! Oh no. He was going to become a SPIDEY! *flail* Her boyfriend was going to become a freaking MANEATER!

She started to shake with fright, "Met? You and hairy over there meet on a regular basis?" She gulped and clenched her fists to try and stop. Spider! A FREAKING spider! And it had been next to her! And now he was Spider brunch. *wail*

Instead of comforting her, Oliver seemed to think it was time to make sure Spidey had a comfortable home with lots of little human bits to eat. Her bottom lip trembled and she pouted watching the spider smile maliciously at her as it went back into it's home. She couldn't believe he was touching it. He was TOUCHING SPIDEY.

She'd never go near him again. He'd put spider germs on her and she'd grow eight eyes too. That was all she needed.

"H-harmed?" Cameron asked with a hollow laugh, her face ashen. "OHHO! No, SHE just would've eaten my brains out."

And then he sat there like it was something funny. Cammy shuffled into the opposite corner of the compartment and pulled her knee's up to her chest looking frightfully small.

"If you think it's funny then.." She had a lot of paranoia's and they were all real! Ravenclaws.. cats.. dogs.. squids.. stalkers.. celery.. spiders..
And he was so annoyingly ununderstanding. 'Cos him and the Hospital Wing were totally normal.

Violet walked back up to the front she opened a compartment door and saw Torin and another girl. *Glare* Well at least it wasn't Brody. "Hey, can I sit here?" she asked them with a smile.

She really owed Torin an apology for being rude earlier on the train, she wasn't being nice to anyone especially not her head which was still hurting from all that banging she did. Pouuuut. She cleared her mind from that thought and gave her attention back to the two.

He was surprised that Ella was back and wanting to join him. He had figured that she wouldn't want to see him again today after the whole thing with Brody and her song.

but he wasn't going to turn her away even if she didn't seem to like his girlfriend much.

"I don't see why not."

"Well, I am just happy to see you" Rex told Ginny. " you miss the train, never" Rex said to Ginny. " You and Bradin ding good?' Rex asked Ginny.

"Well, that is great that you and Keely are going to the Gypsy Vilage" Rex told Emily. " You will have a lot of fun there expecailly with Keely" Rex smiled. Rex gave a quick hug to Emily, then backed away. " Yes, you could also write a poem about your sister. too" Rex explained to Emily. " No dwelling, no tears, just happy thoughts for you" Rex said to Emily. "Well, guess who finally likes me" Rex laughed as Emily 's animals were playing with him.

"Cool place" Rex told Bradin. "So did Ginny enjoy herself?" Rex asked Bradin.
"What year will you be in when you come back from the break?" Rex asked Bradin.

Emily sniffed, "Yeah... I guess they finally trust you." Emily smiled at rex. "Perhaps I will write a poem." Emily said. "I-If you don't mind Rex I think I might read for a little while." Emily turned out the door and back to her own compartment after waving to delilah. She pulled down a brown leather-looking book with gold accents and lettering and began to read. Then Emily's hand trembled and the book tumbled from her fingers. She stood quickly and grabbed a quill and some parchment, and began writing. The emotion in her was too high. She was taking Rex's advice, and onto the page spilled a poem.



Tears spilled from Emily's eyes as she read it over, "Emilya I love you" She said and she held the paper close to her heart and turned on er seat so her back was to the window and her feet were up on the seat. She bit her lip as a tear fell over her lip and her lip sucked it in, drank it as if she hadn't had water in years. Emily's old worn out Chuck tailor all star navy bluesneaker's neon rainbow shoelaces were left untied. Emily hit her head on the window and her hairclip holding her bun up snapped and her hair fell. Some of it in tight curls, but the rest were in large voluminous waves. She looked up at the ceiling and tears fell from the corners of her eyes. She couldn't stop crying. No matter what she told herself, told res, or was told by rex. She still cried. She couldn't help but cry.

"It's nice seeing you all the time", said Ginny to Rex. "If I did miss the train I think I'd be crying", Ginny told Rex. "We're crystal clear", repiled Ginny to Rex.

"Well, I knew your pets would eventually like me" Rex told Emily. " Ok. well go and read " Rex said to Emily. Rex saw Emily's face and knew ahe was about to cry again. Rex feels very sad that he could not help Emily more because he knew why she is crying.

" Hope I am not a pest" Rex told Ginny. "Well, we can not have you crying" Rex said to Ginny. "So when you say Crystal clear, does that mean you and Bradin are not together anymore?" Rex asked Ginny.

"No your not", repiled Ginny to Rex. "It's possible though", she added. "No it means that we're perfect. Everything's fine", answered Ginny to Bradin.

Lori laughed and nodded. "You have a goat? They poooooooop though! " and poop wasn't pretty. Heh.

Urrrr. "I dunno, his parents organised it for us." becase they were cool like that, and Lori was going to be staying in a CARAVAN! but noone was goingvto fin that out.

As someone else joined them, Lori sighed once, and turned back to look out the window.

Emily now sat looking out of the window, she had cried herself dry and she held the poem close to her heart. It may not be the best poem in the world, but when she read it she saw the memories in her head so vividly.

She then, to try and cheer herself up, thought of her amazing summer in the gypsy village with her aunt and Keeley. Learning Tea leaf reading, rune casting, crystal ball reading, and practicing her tarot. She would be staying in an antique caravan. It was one of her dreams to stay in an antique caravan, to sleep with the smell of nature, to wake to see the intricate designs hand painted onto red base paint. The beauty of the morning would feed her soul as she ate breakfast outside. The very thought of it cheered herself up, and a smallsmile broke onto her tear stained face.

The healing had started with that poem, for some reason putting all of her feelings to good use seemed to help her. Although no one could ever take Emilya's place in her heart, she thought now with the thought of her summer that maybe she could live with this hole in her heart.

Violet half smiled as she walked in and sat on the other side of Torin. She looked at the other girl. "Hey" she said to her.

She looked back at Torin. "I'm sorry for being rude earlier." she said avoiding eye contact. "Could you tell Brody I'm sorry too?"

He nodded at her. forgetting that she didn't know about him. "His name's Jack. After the former Head Boy." Taking out his wallet, he removed a picture, and showed it to her.

"Well where ever that place is, it sounds cool." And that was sorta true even if it also seemed a bit boring. Hopefully Donnie would like going there with his sister.

He shrugged at Violet now. "It's okay, forget about it. And I'll tell her later." Because he knew that he would be seeing Brody again really soon since she was his girlfriend, and he wanted to get off the train with her.

" Good, glad I am not a bother" Rex told Ginny. " Well, I hope to never see you cry" Rex said to Ginny. " Great, glad to hear that everything is a-ok with you and Bradin:" Rex explained to Ginny.

"But not too much. I don't know Aiden that well, we just went to school together in LA" replied Bradin. Nice move.

"I hope she did and I'll be in fourth year when we come back. Hopefully Granma won't make a fuss of me growing up. Please Lord, don't let her embarrass me again" replied Bradin. He was high in Christianity.

Anniebell wondered over to the group of people with the student holding the monster in the hands and tapped the nervous student on her back and said can i see what your nervous off please ?

"But you feel like one", said Ginny to Rex. "I'm going to miss you over the holidays", repiled Ginny to Rex. "I can't wait to see what next term is going to be like", Ginny told Rex.

"Well it would be nice to get to know him", repiled Ginny to Bradin smiling.

The back of the train is just too crowded!! Savannah moved to the front and sat in an empty compartment.
