Mikey let his feet fall to the floor and lent forward, his head in his hands. "I honestly have no idea what to say" he replied truthfully. He really didn't. He wished he did but he didn't.

Listen? Oh, well. As if she could do anything else, right? Katie remained quiet as Legend explained, though still trying to escape his hold without resorting to smacking him after Orlando had wisely let go of her. If it was just a hug, that would have been different. But it wasn't, it was their way of making her stay. Of holding her against her will until they had gotten out what they wanted her to know. He was right about that, Katie was sure she wouldn't be alright. That it wasn't going to make a difference, even though she wasn't sure what they thought she was suppose to forgive. "You couldn't force me into anything I don't want to do, anyway." She murmured, rather on the stubborn side. Except keep her in this compartment for the moment.

Her head down and wild curls framing her face, dark eyes staring at the floor and refusing to make contact with either young men, Katie's struggling stopped, if only for the time being. Yes, she knew that. She had said that. And maybe Legend actually understood that now, but it didn't make it better. It didn't make Katie feel any better. If she hadn't been tensed enough, Katie's entire body froze once again at his words, even her breathing stopped for a few seconds as her eyes closed. Why did he have to go and bring that up? Was he trying to make her feel worse? Of all times, Katie didn't want to think about those days right now. He still loved her? "Not in the same way you don't!" Her head snapped up to look at him, tears building in her eyes that once again she couldn't seem to control. She tried pulling away again. Though mumbling, her voice was still firm as she dropped her gaze. "Let me go, Legend."

No, she did not want to hear about this. No, no, no, absolutely NOT. She didn't want to hear a word about the Bott girl. Kaitlynnh did not CARE about her. She did not want to hear about how or why she had been replaced. About how Neptune Bott came into his life when he felt like he had no one else. Well fine. She could stay there, too. Kaitlynnh did not want to hear about it. Kaitlynnh was giving up. She forfeited. She quit. She was going home, and.. this was it. Maybe.. for once, this was for the best. It didn't feel like it now. In fact, it was practically killing her inside. But one day.. maybe, looking back, not fighting would have been the right answer.

And yet, Katie couldn't help from reacting. Both pain and a bit of anger causing her to turn her head up and glare at him, wishing he would just let her go and.. let her give up. Katie was tired of hurting. And tired of hearing about Neptune. "You did not tell her from one friend to another, Legend! Orlando wouldn't have hit you if that had been the case!" Katie full on snapped, "Did care is past tense. You told some girl about me, about how you cared about me and we were engaged, and then kissed HER!" Katie paused, shaking her head. Did he not understand or see that? That, that was wrong? Didn't Legend and Orlando both understand that she didn't want to talk about it in the first place, didn't want to be doing this?! When she spoke next, it was calmer, clearly more detached. "We're not together, and you are free to do whatever you please. You know that. But I would rather not be brought up in conversation. She had no right to know about that. It had nothing to do with her. You don't tell another girl how you feel about someone else, and then go and kiss her." It was like invading and completely ruining her memories. That's how it felt. Like they weren't hers anymore.

By this point, Katie would have hit Legend long ago. She would have smacked, kicked and screamed until he let her go, and some part of her had the urge to just to escape, just to end her own torture, but she didn't. Katie didn't once try to, or warn that she would, despite feeling stupidily like a caged animal. Some part of her knew, in her heart, if she smacked him this time, it wouldn't be like all the other occasions. It would be going too far. And that scared her more.

Redirecting her gaze, tears fell from her eyes, each trailing quickly down her face as her chin was pointed at the ground. She felt Legend loosen his grip, but didn't continue to struggle. "Fine.. you forgot.. that's not even the main problem. You told her. Why would you tell the next girl about the old one? That.. ruins it.. it was none of her business to know." It took everything inside her to keep her voice steady and quiet and understandable in that moment, wanting nothing more than to be left alone to cry until they arrived at King's Cross.

When Orlando finally spoke up, Katie glanced at him, if only for a second or two. She didn't know what to say to that, or how to react. It made her want to cry harder, which she struggled very hard not to do. Words failed her. Is that what Orlando thought? Or they both thought? That she was trying to give up. That was what she was doing, wasn't it, though? Swallowing hard, Katie really wished she could reach her hands up to her face right then, but Legend was still making that a bit difficult. Because she thought it was okay to walk away. That wasn't even fair. "Then why did you both replace me?" Came her mere whispered response, dark eyes closed tight.

Maria suddenly hardened her shell and wiped her tears. "Doesn't matter" she said coldly.

She hoped Mikey would be game to deal with her until Ad got better.

Philip smiled softly and took the box back, chewing on a Jelly bean. Unfortunately it was a Jelly bean that tasted of Newspaper. He grimaced a little and smirked, putting the packet down by his side.

His somber expression turned to one of determination and hope. ''I want to teach.'' He said simply, not disclosing where he wanted to teach.

Dani watched his expression and laughed a little- "I'm guessing that was something... eww" she smirked and took one carefully out of her box- luckily it was sweet tasting.

"Oh, brave" she smirked and winked at him. "My cousin, Patrick's a teacher at Durmstrang" she said softly with a little nod. "Maybe I can get him to talk to you at some point" she said softly. "Or if... you wanna teach muggle or something... I suppose... hmm... yeah" she laughed. "Well, I wanna be a designer... or a model- and if all that fails, I'll be resigned to the Ministry" she laughed a little, nervously.

Mikey looked at Maria and sighed. Now was the time to put everything in his life aside and help Maria through this. She needed him. He sat back again and pulled her into a hug. "She's a fighter, she's gonna be okay. And I'm gonna be by your side throughout. Promise" he whispered looking down at her. That was possibly the most logical thing he'd said in months. He didn't know what was wrong with him. He was just blatantly unpleasent to be around. Not even his friends had got sense out of him lately.

Philip smirked and nodded. "Newspaper!" He coughed, laughing softly at his own misfortune.

Philip nodded. "That would be nice." He said. "I really, really want to be a teacher. Not so much A Muggle Teacher, but.. I'd love to teach what I've learned. It's not as if I didn't spend enough hours in the Library and in the Common Room reading to remember all of it." He nodded. "And even if I can't find a good teaching position.. There's always the Ministry." He added slowly.

Maria finally cracked. After who knew how many weeks of an icy shell, she cracked. She wrapped her hands around Mikey and broke down on his shoulder. She was terrified. "Thank you" she choked out between sobs. She didn't care about anything else but being in Mikey's comforting embrace. It helped. A lot.

Dani smirked before her serious face came into action- "If you really want to be a teacher- you shouldn't let anything stand in your way" she said softly, knowing she should be internally preaching this to herself. "Honestly, you're sweet and kind... well, by what I can tell in the short time we've known each other... I think you'd make a good teacher" she said with a little nod as she moved to cross her legs and rested back against the seat.

"So... got any plans for this summer?" she asked him curiously as she threw down her box of jelly beans and picked up her always present bottle of water.

Mikey half-smiled. His infamous half-smile. He put his arms around Maria, refusing to let her go. But what happened when thigns at home began to become a problem. He hoped they didn't but it was likely. The idea wasn't one he welcomed with warm arms. "Just call and I'll be there. No matter what's going on at home, I'll be there for you" he replied.

Okaaayyyy,this was the end of the train and Fee really didnt like that she couldnt find any of her friends.Was she really this early?Or where they just hiding from her?Well that would be really mean and it wouldntmake any sense to be honest.Pulling her trunk behind her the Slytherin sighed a little because her arm was starting to get heavy and she really didnt want to carry her trunk anymore.

Looking into an empty door compartment,the blonde decided to just sit down there and wait for someone to pass by.Maybe that was the better solution.Fortunately she had a book with her,so at least the first part wouldnt be that boring for her.

Fallon sat in a compartment near the back of the train by herself. Aaron and Iris were probably in the Prefect's compartment and she figured that's where Finn was as well. She looked down at the badge she held in her hands. It wasn't hers of course. It was Finn's Head Boy badge and she smiled. She still couldn't believe that he'd given it to her.

Fallon rested her head against the window and stared out at the scenery. This was her last time on this train. Ever.

Finlay smiled, as he stood outside the compartment watching her for a few moments. It might have seemed a bit stalkerish, but he loved just watching her. Fallon really was amazing. She made him so happy. After a few moments, he opened the door to the compartment door, and slipped in. "Hey Fallon..." He smiled, sitting down next to her, resting his arm around her waist.

It was there last train journey away from Hogwarts. It felt bittersweet, but he couldn't wait to start their lives together. It would be fun, even if they would be separated for a few years.

Good Orlando. Good words. Strong words of truth that Legend really only could nod his head to. Because Orlando was right. Everything that he said. Legend sighed. He had really....dragged EVERYONE involved through hell. He couldn't force Katie. That was right. He could never force Katie into doing things she didn't want. She was like a donkey, extremely stubborn and always ready to kick you if you bothered her.

Legend's jaw clenched tightly as she started to struggle again and spoke her next words. Not in the same way? The seventeen year old wanted to snort. To tell her how wrong she was. But wouldn't that make things any better. She probably wouldn't believe him no matter what he said. "...Breaking up with someone doesn't mean falling out of love with someone. It can...but it didn't for me." He shrugged, eyes falling on Orlando as he let go. Why....would the other boy do that? They had discussed this! NO letting go. Ever. But it seemed like they had BOTH changed their minds.

Then Katie snapped. Which he had been expecting. But it wasn't a bad thing. He had WANTED her to talk. Wanted to her from her, wanted to know what she thought, and how she felt, but most importantly how he could fix things. As the short girl we on and on, Legend's eyes opened slightly. Loosing his grip even more so he could actually look at her. That was what Katie thought? That he had told Neptune they were engaged and probably that it didn't matter and just went and kissed her? When she finally finished a small grin broke out on his face. This was all a misunderstanding. That was what it was. "Katie....Katie...I did tell her one friend to another." Giant misunderstanding. That was all it was. He knew he would probably be punched for smiling but he couldn't help it. It was cute. "I didn't tell Neptune that I was engaged to you before I kissed her. I told her way, way after when we decided to meet again and both agreed that the kiss was a mistake." Or rather...it shouldn't have happened because it wouldn't help both of their situations. "I told her, when she was asking me advice about a previous relationship that she was in, because she was telling me that she still loved that guy. And I was telling her that if she loves someone. She should tell them. And I told her that was what I did when I asked you to marry me. That was my way of showing you that I loved you." He sighed. This...misunderstanding was STUPID? Did you see Katie? It was all an accident. Of course Legend never meant anything by it. "I never met to hurt you." The grin on his face had faded a bit. Because it hit him.

If she didn't believe him....if she didn't accept it. He could really do..nothing else.

The next girl. The old one? He didn't think of neither girls as this. And he didn't understand why Katie would at all."I...she is only my friend...I was trying to give her advice?" He looked down, resisting another sigh.

Replace...replace...Katie? Legend's head shot up so fast he heard his neck crack. She thought they were replacing her? Seriously? That could not be true. No. But...the words had come out of her mouth as clear as day. "Are you serious? Kaite what the hell. No one could ever replace you. No one. I don't care how many friends Orlando gets. I don't care how many girls I end up dating-which really has been only you. But seriously? No one can replace you. You are my oldest friend. When we were younger I TRIED. I BEGGED to get rid of you! And you didn't go! That's sign enough, you're here to stay in my life forever. On top of that you were the first girl I have ever loved and will always love. No one can....just go and replace that. Years of memories....Katie you can't just can't be replaced at all. Never. Not by Neptune or Ryden or any other girl out their. To us you are unreplaceable." THIS WAS SILLY. Why didn't she see how much they cared for her? Why did she thing that they would even go and replace her? Legend felt horrible. Completely. He let go of Katie and shook his head. This....maybe this was a bad idea.

Fallon looked away from the window as the door opened. She smiled up at her amazing boyfriend. "Hey Finn." She gave him a kiss on the cheek as he sat down next to her. She leaned back and rested her head on his shoulder. With her hand that wasn't holding his badge, she took a hold of his.

"Can you believe this is the last time we'll ever be on this train again?"

Finlay smiled as she took his hand. He was glad that they had sorted things out between them, and we're graduating Hogwarts together, as a very happy couple. Finn snuggled closer to her, content with spending the remainder of the journey with her. He'd be content doing anything with Fallon really. He spotted his badge in her other hand, and smiled. He was glad that he'd given it to her. Finn knew she'd look after it. He would probably lose it.

"It's kind of bittersweet..." Finlay sighed, smiling sadly at her. "But the beginning of a new adventure for us."

Maria just continued crying, letting out all the emotions she had bottled up even before Ad fell ill. Anger, hatred, and fear all results of life in Italy. A life that she was going back to. But she didn't dare say that to Mikey. Definitely not.

Mikey closed his eyes and took a deep breath before opening them again. "Is there something you're not telling me?" he asked curiously.

Presley's compartment door was open, and she heard Philip's distinctive voice, telling some girl that he wanted to teach. Her face broke into a satisfied grin when the girl told him he'd be a good teacher. She knew she was right! However, she left them alone, owing to the fact that she wanted to hang out with Rachel and Luna, and she didn't really want to interrupt thier conversation. Silently she willed Philip to believe her, and for her to please tell him he should teach at Hogwarts.

As Ronnie sat in the compartment alone, she thought of her father who had died just about a few weeks ago. Thinking about him made tears stream down her eyes. Now she knew how Jordan felt. Well, sort of. What happened to him was way worse than her. She sighed and looked out the window, hoping for someone to sit with her and comfort her. But the compartment was empty except for Scabbers, who was crawling around the seat. She decided to go to the food trolley since she had a ton of money and she was hungry as well.

Fallon smiled as Finn snuggled closer. This was a great way to end the year and her time at Hogwarts, even if she was sad about leaving. She absent-mindedly started to rub the back of his hand with her thumb.

"Mhm." She turned so she could look into his face. "A great adventure."

Maria lifted her head from Mikey's shoulder. "Yes...I have to go back to Italy for the summer. Just the summer" she added. She had worked it out somehow with Jake and her mother. She could continue going to Hogwarts as long as she vacationed in Italy over the summer.

Mikey looked down at Maria. Great! Just what he needed! An entire summer without Maria around. Fun! NOT. He hated the idea but if she had to go, she had to go. At least it'd give him time to think things over, right? "Well I'll still be here when you get back" he replied. The idea had torn him apart but he needed time to think some things through anyway. And at least now nothing was stopping him from going to Yorkshire for a week or two.

Jayce took his time as he wandered around the train, looking for an open compartment. He moped along, glancing in each door's window, trying to see if anyone was inside. Upon reaching the end of the train, it seemed as though this one had been left untouched. So, slowly and sadly, realizing this would be the last time he'd be opening this particular trains's doors, he entered and slumped over on bench, closest to the window where he rested his head.

The cool glass felt nice against his forehead and he shut his eyes for a moment, feeling safe and relaxed in his little compartment.

Maria sighed. "I know" she said. "It's not like I'm gonna do anything fun. I'll have to sit through fighting. And if I do escape that, it's not like I can do anything. Besides hop onto a boat and just calm down" she said. Venice got on her nerves so much.
