" I remember the first time we met, I just might have been your first friend here" Rex told Cass." Well I apprciate you telling me that things will not be the same without me" Rex said to Cass. " I bet it will be better without me" Rex laughed. " Fee and Freaya will be here" Rex smiled.

" Hello young lady' Rex called out to Fee." I would be happy to stay with you." No pouting any time at HogWarts" Rex reminded Fee. " Unless it is for you get something out of Hugo" Rex laughed. Rex hugged Fee. " Glitter Girl", where is my final glitter?" Rex asked Fee. I meant to remind Hugo of him being in my wedding, would yo uremind him for me?" Rex asked Fee.

" Problems with yoru bag?" Rex asked Ella. " Give it to me and I will put it up there for you" Rex said to Elle. " I am glad I saw you before I left HogWarts for good" Rex told Elle." Now remember, you make sure that the boys treat you right" Rex explained to Elle.

" Do I count as a blonde?" Rex asked Freya. " I am happy I saw you on the train" Rex told Freya." I can't wait for you to meet Renee" Rex said to Freya. " How is your train trip so far?" Rex asked Freya.

" Simon, long time no see" Rex told him."So what haave you been doing lately?" Rex asked Simon. " I am getting married after graduation" Rex told Simon. " I would love for you to come to my wedding" Rex said to Simon.

" Hi, how are you?" Rex asked Kelley. " I will be seeing you at my wedding" Rex said to Kelley. " My future wife is Renee and she is in your house" Rex told Kelley." Have you had a chance to meet any boys?' Rex asked Kelley.

Kurumi laughed as she tried to choke back some tears. "How can I NOT cry in this situation?" she said looking up at him. Sniffling a bit, she used the sleeve of her sweater to dry her tears. She wanted to say that she would be waiting for him forever, but both her and Adam knew that that would be unfair to both of them. She didn't want to hold him back, and she was sure he didn't want to either.

Looking up at him again, all she could do was nod. "I'd like that...very much," she said still biting on her lower lip a bit. "I'll...I'll take care of the cherry tree we planted our first year. Maybe we can go back and visit it sometime."

Adam laughed when she nearly half choked on her tears...He hadn't heard her laugh in many weeks- well laugh out all the pain she had been bottling , same as him.

Then a lightbulb appeared..."Kurumi,"He said slightly aghast."When will I EVER be able to go back to it?"He asked

"Oh, you're getting married?" Kelley asked. "Congratulations! It's great that you're inviting me. I mean, if you are. I guess I would consider that an invitation." She blushed awkwardly as Rex's question. "Any boys? Well.... um.... Yeah... I've met a few boys here..... but I don't think any of them like me in a more-than-friendship way.... I mean, I'm only twelve. I'm not really in a hurry for anything."

Kurumi hugged Adam a little tighter...until he contradicted himself. "Wasn't it you who just said that we were taking an extended vacation?"

"Yes..Yes...I just mean that I won't see the tree at Hogwarts anymore...I mean last night was my last night..Unless you are saying I become a teacher here or something?"He laughed as he spluttered at himself.

"We are allowed to visit the school you know," she teased. Adam...becoming a professor at Hogwarts? Well, if they began offering classes about how to rub someone's head properly then perhaps yes. "It's not like the school is going anywhere."

No, it was always the students that left and almost never looked back.

Anakin made sure that he moved all the way to the very back of the train, entering a compartment that didn't seem to be holding too many people. It seemed with all the students attending Hogwarts, it would be too good to be true to find a compartment of his very own.

Sitting down, having already dealt with his trunk, and keeping his small napsack close by his side, Ani glanced out the window, before turning to examine all the other students. All in all, it'd been a fairly good year. He'd made a few new friends, and looked forward to coming back. He was really excited to go home and visit his Da though. He'd missed the man dearly, and there was no one else around to stay with him in Anakin's absence.

Just Da and the cat. That was it. It'd be good to spend a few months at home with the old man.

Samira trailed along the train, towards the back. She wasn't in a very chatty mood like she usually was, and didn't feel like socializing much like she usually did. Her first year at Hogwarts had really been great. She made several new friends, good marks, and the food was to die for.

The young Slytherin walked towards the back of the train where she was hoping to find an empty compartment to read. She found one that looked to be empty, and slid the door open. Her bright eyes widened in surprise when she saw someone was already occupying the compartment. Dang.

"Oh," she blinked. "Um, sorry." she stood up a bit straighter. "Sorry if I interrupted," she said, although it didn't look as if he were in the middle of anything of utmost importance. "Do you mind if I sit here? Everywhere else is full..." Samira shuffled her feet awkwardly and tilted her head to one side.

"ohh I don't think there will be too many problems with that!" she said and smiled, "they adopted me last summer towards the end of the year! I sure hope there will be tanning places!!" she said and laughed

Louisa swallowed what's left of the candy and nodded at Maisie. "Good call, girl." Like who wouldn't go out on a date with an older teen that has a really good looking face? Hmm?
"Oh! That's really nice of you to offer, Timothy." Little Timmy sounded a little bit flirty suddenly o_o "Are they wizard and witch too?" She was curious..just like that.
"I don't think my aunt would agree to stay over anyways." She lied, her aunt wouldn't mind getting rid of her and she wasn't going to give her that luxury HEHEHE. "She's not a witch and really doesn't trust us." No lying here. "I can visit though!" To see how things went with them would be great.

Selina moved into the compartment and pulled her legs into her chest in the empty compartment. This whole year had been a whirl wind. Everything had come and gone in a blink of an eye and she was now a second year. What would the next six years be like? She didn't even want to think about it. One day at a time Selina.

All of the friends she had made and all of the lessons she had learned would stay with her forever. Even those who had come into her life for a small time meant so much to her and she knew always would. Selina started to play with her shoe and waited. It would only be a matter of time when her small bubble of peace was popped and she would be joined by a small blonde.... only a matter of time.

Before Violet got on the train she took one long lasting look back the wonderful place she came to love more than she thought she would. She walked onto the train adjusting her skirt a little. She walked passed many compartments, full, half full, none full, one person sitting alone in some of them; aww poor people! Violet walked into the back of the train continuously looking into the compartments, with people she knew and people she didn't know or knew of-OH SELINA SKYLAR!

Violet flung open the compartment and practically flew into her best friend's compartment wrapping her arms around her tightly. She then said very rapidly,"Oh MERLIN SELY! I can't believe that our first term at Hogwarts is already over, and I can't believe that we're going back home so soon! Like it felt like it was only yesterday that the two of us had come across each other not knowing a thing about one another, and just look at us now! BEST FRIENDS FOR ETERNITY!" She squeezed the redhead and then loosened her grip a bit to say,"But in all seriousness Sely, this was the best time of my life! And I was so happy to be able to experience it with you both you and Elektra and for that I am SO grateful-of course minus the amount of times that we got into trouble, but still an everlasting year I will NEVER forget!" At the end of all of this Violet just smiled brightly practically from ear to ear.

Selina gasped, "Violet... can't... breath... hurting... me... arms... tight... let.. go."

Violet gasped hearing Selina's very short choice of words and then said immediately,"Sorry Sely!" She let go and then smiled sweetly at her hoping Selina wouldn't be angry for Violet accidentally almost choking her to death...again (WHOOPS!)

Wheezing to herself once she was released Selina reached to her throat to rub the attack. For a small girl Violet was awful strong. Maybe it was the Harpie in her... yeah it was the Harpie in her. That was beside the point, she had sparred Selina from the cold grasps of death and for that Selina was grateful.

"It's cool. Just try to stop killing me if you can. I, um, would like to know what you're doing this summer." The letter in her pocket was burning.

"Oh really?"JHE said pleasantly surprised. "But knowing my parents I'll probably only see you in the summer and that's with me sneaking away with floo powder...By the way do you happen to have any extra in handy?"HE asked her, just to make her laugh because Kurumi would never carry around anything like that.

"Can I ask a serious question?" Kurumi asked sitting back down on the seat, but not letting go of Adam's hand. "How long are you going to let your parents tell you what to do?"

It had been something that she had been thinking about in regards to her own life as well recently. She hadn't been suggesting that he sneak off and visit Hogwarts during the summer. She was implying about once he became of age. Was able to take care of himself.

"I'm thinking once I become of age...For my parents that's 18..."Adam answered, swallowing .

He wondered if he could take care of himself by then. Would he really leave his parents all behind a pursue a life in London, or just stay stuck in some broken time warp in Mexico City.

She sounded serious herself. Adam knew how much her mother told her what not and what to do- maybe she herself felt restricted and wanted someone else's opionon because they were going through the same thing.

*ooc: sorry, wrong thread.*

What was he thinking about now, or what was he thinking about before? In truth he supposed it didn't matter, given her simple touch erased all thoughts from his mind and set him to leaning his head towards her hand. "Just you." Because right now, he couldn't focus on anything else.

Kurumi nodded. She wasn't sure if Adam really meant what he said, for he didn't seem so sure himself. "Just wondering," she smiled faintly. "It sounded like you were never going to try and stand on your own two feet."

She leaned back against the seat and reflected for a moment about the past year - especially the words of advice given to her by Professor Zookara and Mr. Ikenna.

"I want to get away as quickly as possible, like my brothers have," she said with a firmness in her voice. "I get that chance this summer. My father is going to work for the Daily Prophet. I won't be staying in Japan too much this summer, just a week here and there to please my mother."

Cass looked away from Fee and smiled when another blonde entered the room. "Hey Darling! You're finally here, what took you so long?" She asked as she scooted over near the window to make room for the girl.

"Nothing much, just pouring my heart out to our wonderful love guru here." Cass explained with a giggle as she nodded towards Fee's direction.

After Freya's entrance, Cass, who was now looking down at Ice while stroking his fur, heard the compartment door slide open. Wow, they have a lot of visitors today. She looked up to smile at the newcomer and her blue eyes widened. Levi. She glanced at Fee, did he hear what she and Fee were talking about?

She blinked for a few times, masking the panic in her eyes. Typical Slytherin reaction. She smiled at Levi, he really was fun to be with and she enjoyed his company immensely and she needed to make a choice.

"Levi, hi. You found us." She said brightly, the smile on her face not really touching her eyes. "All set to go home?"

Cass shook her head "Stop being silly Rex, of course things wouldn't be netter without you. Besides, if I go mental and decide to go swimming in the lake again, who would save me?" She said as she laughed. Remembering her swimming lessons with Rex during her first year at the freezing lake.

"Ok."Adam said glancing out the window as the rolling hills rolled by..What a year...He learned so much about himself and Kurumi and life in just a few short months...

He never apologeized to anyone, always thought he was right, and always ran away from any problems that involved him and Kurumi.

That's good. At least you get to explore a little..Still having that problem with your mother?"He asked.

This seemed like the first time they had a real truthful deep conversation, lots of months ago...When they first met.

A smile tugged at the corners of her lips as she continued to trace her fingers lightly along his jaw line. She wasn't sure what response she'd get from him, whether he'd tell her what he was thinking before or what he was thinking now, but his words said it all, and she knew it to be true. Thankfully whatever he was thinking about before, whatever may or may not have been bothering him was successfully pushed to the back on his mind. "Good thoughts?"
