He smiled as she said that he didnt have to surprise her, he nodded "I know.. but I.. I just felt like surprising you is all" he said as he gave her a big smile cause he was glad to hear she was just happy hanging out with him "Well I am glad you are happy, cause I am supposed to keep you happy." it was in his job description as a boyfriend "And bonuses are good.. they make everything a little more better " he smiled at her warmly.. his girlfriend... whom he liked immensely.. maybe even loved but he hadnt told her yet.

He smiled when she confirmed that they were good answers, and here he was sitting thinking that he hadnt given good answers. He had even surprised himself at how much he had learnt about this girl that had become his girlfriend after a year of being very good friends, but he was sure there was still more to learn about her and they had their whole lives for that.. cause he was planning on keeping Ella in his life.. as his girlfriend or even as a friend. He put a hand to her cheek "Trust me, you are one smart girl! I have known you long enough to know that now." he smiled as he looked into her eyes, he had known her for nearly 2 years now and in that time they had learnt alot about each other. He smiled brightly and raised his eyebrows "She is? You do? Well she likes you too! so I can imagine you two sitting down and having a big chat" he nodded, he was glad the two liked each other and enjoyed each others company. That meant it was easier for Harvey too! He didnt have to worry about his family liking Ella or not. He looked down as Ella grabbed his hand and he looked back up at her, after listening to her he nodded.. he should have expected that. Her dad hadnt seen her in months and was probably itching to see her too, whereas Harvey had been with her for those months so it was better she went home to her dad "I know we will.. but I just.. you know.. but.. its cool.. owl me when you wanna meet" he said giving her hand a gentle squeeze, he just couldnt wait to hang out with her again.. all those plans they had planned.. this was going to be one unforgettable summer! He nodded "He does?" Harvey's heart beat a little faster "You .. you write about me? How does your dad feel hearing about me all the time?" he asked wondering what her dad thought of the fact that his one and only daughter constantly spoke about a boy who a year ago didnt even know he liked her. "Well I will be glad to see him too!" he was like a little brother to Harvey.. Caleb and Emily were similar in ages.. Emily being only a year older than Caleb. He was then poked by Ella as she talked about his siblings, he leaned in closer "Oh really? and what would you do if they werent nice" he asked wondering what she would do.. he knew that it wouldnt come to that but he was just feeling a little fun.

Ronnie walked along the train, peeking in the compartments she passed by, carrying a box of Bertie Bott's and her kitten Oliver cradled in her arm. Merlin's Beard! Where was Adam?! She couldn't find him anywhere! She sighed, and noticed an empty compartment. She slid the door open and walked in. She then shut the door and plopped onto the seat, frowning. Maybe he was looking for her too and would see her in here... she was too lazy to go search some more. She had been walking back and forth along the corridor of the train too long.

She watched as Oliver curled up in her lap and began to purr. She sighed, looking at the box of Bertie Bott's in her hand. She'd wait until Adam got here to eat them. She had bought them for both of them, eating Bertie Bott's wasn't fun by yourself! That was for sure!

"Well...that's very sweet of you, Harvs." And she returned his smile with one of her own. "Oh um well I'm very happy so I guess...you're doing a really good job?" Ella just hoped she was doing a good job as well cause she'd much rather know that Harvey was happy. Mhm.

BLUSH. Ella really couldn't help it, especially when Harvey touched her cheek like that. The blonde looked at him and smiled, hoping she wasn't completely red. "I trust you, Harvey." She said quietly before looking down and biting her lip. After all this time she was still rubbish at taking compliments. The badger laughed when Harvey seemed surprised by what she'd said about his mom. "She is and I do." Giggle. "Yeah? Well...that's a good thing, then." Cause it'd be horrible if Harvey's mom disliked her! EEP! That'd be the worst. "I could picture that happening too." And it was nice, talking to a nice mom... Ella didn't get to do that often. It was obvious to Ella that Harvey was a bit disappointed by her answer but she knew he couldn't really blame her. "I'll owl you right away, I'm sure." She said seriously, giving his hand a squeeze. Oh and he got a big smile too. Beam. "He does! And Dad...well he's just happy to know what I'm up to. And if I'm happy, he's happy so.." Mhmmm. "Yeah? I'm glad! He'll be happy to hear it." The blonde felt her heart beat really fast when he leaned in closer to her, fighting a smile. "I um...well I don't know, really. Maybe I'd...not share gummy worms with them..or something." Heh.

Having dropped off all her stuff in one of the compartments, Lily was wondering the corridor of the train, looking for two people. The redhead had changed into her muggle clothing already, wearing jeans and a blue t-shirt. Her Ravenclaw sneakers were upon her feet but only one was still tied. Lily was glancing in each compartment as she made her way down the train. As she had just about passed one compartment, she realized that the two people she was looking for were inside and seemed to be upset about something.

Entering the compartment, Lily slid in and sat on the bench next to Louisa. Vickers got a smile before the former third year said anything. "Hi Vickers! I didn't get the chance to see you at the feast to say goodbye, so I figured I'd do that now while I had the chance.... So umm... Goodbye Vickers." She finished, handing him a lumpy, wrapped gift. While she waited for him to open it, the redhead looked over at Louisa and gave a bit of a frown. Why was she trying to sleep when she could be eating candy and enjoying herself with her little sister, who happened to have a whole bunch of candy in her backpack? So Lily sat, glancing at Louisa and hoping that the train ride would never end.

He smiled as she said that it was sweet of him, well he always wanted to surprise her he just couldnt figure out how.. and he decided it was better to do it outside of school that way it would be more secret rather than her finding out from someone that may have caught him getting the surprise ready or something. He grinned "You are? .. yeah I guess I am.. just like you are" yeah she was the best at her job! possibly even better than him!

He looked at her as she turned a little more red forcing him to smile at this, he placed a light kiss on her forehead "Good" cause he wanted her to trust him when he said things like this.. compliments that were usually always true! He saw her look down and smiled knowing what she was thinking. He smiled as she laughed in that sweet voice of hers, he nodded "It is a good thing.. and I am so glad you two get on well with each other" it would be tough to manage his time between the two if they didnt, but Ella.. Ella was just perfect for his family. She fit right in with everyone as if she had been there all her life, he chuckled "Yeah.. but that doesnt mean you two can forget about me when you are engrossed in your fun chats" he chuckled jokingly.. he nodded "I know you will.. your family will enjoy having you back.. and you yourself will be happy to see them" he looked at her "And I can live with not seeing you for a few days to know that you are happy hanging out with your family" he said as he kissed her, cause truly all he wanted was for her to be happy.. and she was happy with him.. but seeing your family after months of not seeing them was a different happiness entirely. He smiled as she said that Caleb would be happy to hear about it.. he could see her trying to fight a losing battle against a smile that was coming.. then it was his turn to lose the battle against a smile "Thats my girl..I will make sure that they know of it.. and that they have to be nice to me if they want candy from.. my girlfriend" he chuckled as he looked at her.. still not believing that he was dating Ella Bishop.. the girl he had been crushing on without knowing it since the day he laid his eyes on her at the end of his second year

Jory was so lost in his book he hadn't even noticed the compartment door had opened until something black slinked in and placed itself on his feet. Startled, the boy shook his feet and the creature hissed and dashed under the seat opposite. "It's only a cat,'' he murmured looking at the familiar cat.

Just then he heard his name and looked up. "Hiya, Gwen!'' he greeted. He wasn't expecting anyone, so he was a bit surprised to see her here. "Come on, Jinx is already comfortable,'' the Puff said. "Need help with that trunk?''

Greeting the Hufflepuff with a bright grin, the fifth year made her way in the compartment. Hmm? What was he saying? ‘No, it’s fine’, Gwen answered to his question about the trunk. ‘It’s good to see you’, she said as she crashed on one of the empty seats, still holding the sketchbook in her hands. Jinx jumped on the seat nearby and waited to get a pat on the had. Though, his owner didn’t seem to notice. Hmph.

‘Mary Higgins Clark?’, she asked, eyeing the book Jory was reading. Just a guess, but maybe she was right, since it was his favourite author. Gwendolyn then drew her attention to the window, wondering if she would be able to come up with a new sketch on the train ride. Maybe… maybe not. ‘So…’, she mumbled, looking back at Jory. ‘Got any plans for the summer?’, the Ravenclaw asked, actually willing to find out what Jory would be doing this holiday. Well, the holiday will be a well deserved break after the OWLs. Gwen couldn’t believe those exams were finally over.
