"Yeah, we did. Lilli-Rose right?" she said sitting down next to her. Before getting an answer she turned to the unfamiliar face beside her and stuck out her hand, she was to excited, they must have thought she was mental. "Hey. I'm Isla." She said smiling.

Bradin smiled. He understood her reasons for that.
"Thanks" he replied.
"I guess a break from guys is understandable. You need to be sure you find the right one for you" he said.

He had ignored her first question. Just silence from Jimbo. But then she said she would leave. He didn't think she would do it, so he only stared at her but then she DID! She LEFT. And she didn't take the candy either! That meant she was upset. That much was clear. And Jimbo didn't mean to make her upset! No, no, no! He didn't want her to leave either!

Stunned, for a few seconds all he could do was stare at the compartment door. But then he suddenly shot up from his seat and went out to the corridor after her. She was only a couple steps away from the compartment as he RAN towards her and tackled her feet to make her stop.

"MONTY, NO, NO, NO!!!!!!!! DON'T LEAVE ME, MONTY!"

Unfortunately he'd underestimated how hard he had tackled her feet so they both ended up tumbling to the ground. Either way, Jimbo didn't let go of her.
"No, please, Monty. Don't go. Don't leave me. I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry. I was never angry, I'm just a brat. A moody, stupid, moronic drama queen. Never take me seriously. Never, never, never."

You would never get that kind of action or speech from Jimbo if he didn't truly care about you. He never said that sort of stuff about himself. And it was obvious in his voice that he was completely sincere about what he was saying.
"You know I would never throw candy at anyone just to throw it! You know how I feel about candy! That was my stupid, immature way of apologizing, but I'M SORRYYYYY!!!!!!"

Daisy sat down and smiled. "I feel like so relieved that I passed." She smiled. "If it wasn't for you, Rex, Jason, and my dad I son't think I would've felt so confident in it." She looked out the windows and saw her dad standing there waving at her and she waved back smiling and mouthing 'love you daddy'. "My mom left us officailly. It's just me and him now. And I couldn't be happier."

Iris almost hesitated when she heard Jimbo leave the compartment after her. See, she was right. But what she didn’t think he’d do is yell for her so loudly that the driver could hear them! Before Iris even got the chance to say that she wasn’t REALLY going, Jimbo’d tackled her and knocked her over. She didn’t even remember hitting the floor or anything! She was stood up, then next thing she knew, she was on the floor with a sore elbow and Jimbo gripping on to her rather tightly.

Listening to Jimbo mumble all of his apologies, Iris couldn’t help but smile. She knew he really meant them, because he’d NEVER put himself down like that. Ever.

She really wanted to hug him. But she couldn’t because of how they were right now. She kinda half-smiled at him. “ ‘least you know that you’re a moody, stupid, moronic drama queen. And don’t worry. I won’t take you seriously.” Hehehehe. The way he’d just said all of that to try and make her his friend again was actually pretty cute.

Iris listened to him as he carried on apologising to her. “I know, I know, I know, and I forgive youu!!! ” Iris wriggled out of his grip (with some difficulty, but managed to), and realised that they were probably blocking all the corridor. Ah well. She smiled at Jimbo and pulled him into a really HUGE hug.

She didn’t care that people might want to get past. Jimbo wasn’t really mad at her and he’d just practically insulted himself apologising to her and THAT was all that mattered to her right now.

" need some company back here' Rex told Kay. "Who else is here?" Rex asked Kay. You know me always last minute" Rex laughed.

The front of the train had been a bit too noisy for her liking. What she really wanted was a quiet ride back home. The home she would visit for the last time. She sighed. Being a seventh year was such a drag. She was constantly reminded of the wonderful times she had at school...the memories she made..and the friends she would probably never see again after this term.

She slid open an empty compartment and slipped inside dropping her bag unto the seat in front of her just as she had done in the compartment she vacated at the front. She put her feet up on the seat in front of her and closed her eyed.

Joe was walking to the back he was nervous and nobody was there he sat down theen somebody came and said the rest is full and joe said okay you can sit down.

Brittany walked to the back of the train still on cloud nine. She really couldnt believe she was about to go to hogwarts. Every since her dad had told her what she was... what they were she dreamed of it every since. She slid open and empty compartment and slid in with her things. She hoped all her friends wasn't at the other end of the train. she didnt think to check

Jack had finally been sorted into a house after having a private sorting. Well, he had to unless he wanted to be sorted with the first years. NO.

He had been sorted into Slytherin. So, to be patriotic, Jack had a dark green shirt on so everybody knew that he had obviously been put into the best. Any house which had a Riding in it was awesome.

When Jack had passed Rhea all on her lonesome in a compartment, he could help but smile and slide the door open, his luggage elsewhere. "Guess what house I was sorted into?" He gestured towards his shirt. Hufflepuff; HA. Before she answered, Jack made his way opposite her, carefully moving her legs away from where he wanted to sit, and placed them beside him. "It's not that difficult, to be honest."

Ginny returned Bradin's smile.
"It's alright", she said back to him.
"Yeah, I just don't want to have a serious relationship at the moment", she repiled.

Rhea was this close to dosing off when the sound of her compartment door sliding open caused her to open her eyes. She looked towards the door and smiled. Well look who it was. jack Riding himself. She had hoped to see him on platform 91/3 but better late than never. Besides she could really use some company.

He asked her to guess what house he was sorted in but was saved the challenge of guessing when he pointed to his green shirt. So the boy was right. All ridings went to Slytherin house. What a tradition that was. Her dad had been a Gryff and her mom a Claw and she was a Puff, so clearly her family was not like his. Before she could answer anyways he moved her feet and sat in the space they previously occupied.
"Hmm, you're head looks twice it's normal size and you're flaunting a green shirt. I'm going to go with slytherin." She stuck her tongue out at him playfully and pulled herself up into somewhat of a sitting position.
"I'm anxious to get there but I'm dreading it also." She didn't want it to be her last year.

Ling strode to the back of the train, clutching a few books to his thin chest. Those would have to serve as some sort of entertainment on the long ride to Hogwarts. He passed by filled compartments without so much as a second glance to the occupants before he found one of his own. He didn't want to bother anybody. Maybe one of the few friends he had would catch up to him later on.

He set the books on the seat beside him and picked up the top one. It was a muggle story called It and he cracked the thick novel open, reading with a flourish. He was addicted to horror, whether it was in movie or book form and this was one of his favorites. It was over a thousand pages long but supremely amazing. He only wished that there was somebody who shared his ardor for such gory text and who was equally as much of a bookworm as him. That would have been pretty awesome to share the fidelity with whoever they were.

Anna walked onto the train. She wanted to sit somewhere near the back. She found an empty compartment and sat down. It was still lonely. But she could always read.

Kimalia strolled down the hallway around the back. "Gosh, I have to remember to arrive early next time." She chose a random compartment that looked empty from afar only to see someone in there already reading. "Oh hi, mind if I join you?" She was a little taken aback, but accepted the change quickly smiling. "Everywhere else is pretty full."

She heard a voice. She looked up and there was a girl her age asking to to share the compartment. Maybe she wouldn't be alone "Um, Sure!" she said gesturing to the empty seats around her. "It'll be nice to not be alone on the trip. My name is Anna by the way."

Wow. Being forgiven had never felt so wonderful.
And Jimbo had a lot of situations to compare it to, so that was saying something.

They were in quite the comfy position, he would say. Sprawled out on the floor in the middle of the train corridor, hugging. Jimbo could barely breathe, which he still wasn't sure was a good thing. He was shocked, to say the least when Monty just threw herself at him like that. But once he got past the shock, he hugged her back tightly, happy to know she wasn't upset.

Thing is, they stayed like that long enough for Jimbo to forget himself. So, he got a little too comfy in Monty's arms. He ended up nuzzling into her neck and cuddling too much as opposed to...well, hugging in a friendly manner. He was cuddling, not hugging. And it's something that would not go unnoticed. Especially with Monty.

But hey, maybe more apologies and candy could make it better? And maybe Pebbles could help out a bit. Nobody could resist a cute turtle.

Although, he might have to face his fear and conjure up some more butterflies. He might have a lot of making up to do after this little moment.

So what he said before, about being best friends with the girl he liked? And how the hugs were the best part.
Yeah, at the moment, the hugging is a bad thing. It means that he forgets that he's hugging his best friend. Not his girlfriend.

Kimalia smiled as she chose to sit across from her. "Hi Anna, nice name, I'm Kimalia." She shook hands with Anna and then took in the surroundings around them. "So, what year are you in? It's my first year."

"I'm a firstie, Gryfindor surprisingly enough. What house did you get sorted into?" She said as they started to move. She was so excited she could barely stop herself from bouncing up and down.

Brant couldn't believe how small everyone was, like did he grow a million feet or did everyone just shrink? he thought while walking down the compartment hallway.

"Hmmmm... Lots of first years." while looking out the window. they weren't even half way there yet. Brant let out a sigh.

The oh so famous Hogwarts express. Man, was this thing made in the 1800's or something? Back in New York, the subway to school was high tech.

The homesick, lonely, non-friended, New Yorker known as Alex Hound made his way onto the Hogwarts express for his first time. He started making his way down the aisles past compartments. He saw friends grouping together. Talking to each other. Even the little first years had groups. Weird.

Eventually, Alex made it to the back of the train... Where he saw his buddy Aaron's girlfriend... All over some guy... Yikes. Well, that's what Aaron gets for kissing his friend... He kept moving.

Near the way back, the kid FINALLY came across an empty compartment. Jeez. He sat down loaded his stuff in the luggage compartment at sat down...

...Bored.

"Oo, Gryffindor." She thought back to hearing of their traits. "I got into Slytherrin myself." She said it matter-of-factly. "My mom was hoping Ravenclaw like her, but hearing I got into the same one as dad made her just as happy." She gasped as the train started moving, and fought to hold back a squeal of excitement. "Oo we're moving!"

"We are moving!" She squealed in delight "I thought I would get into Slytherin or Ravenclaw but I guess not." Her stomach grumbled and she got out a cauldron cake "Want one?" she said offering one to the girl.

"Sure, thanks!" She happily accepted one of the cakes. Whilst enjoying the sweet she thought about the mysteries of Hogwarts that await her. "I wonder what happens once we arrive?"

Faelwen looked around the compartments, none of which seemed to be empty so she turned to the closest compartment where two other girls were already sitting.

"Sorry if I'm interrupting... but do you mind if I join you?"
