Off to Hogwarts! *every student!* « Thread Started on Jun 3, 2008, 6:25pm »
((Well..we are a day late..so I'm gonna start us off.))
Aiden was at Platform Nine and three quarters to see some of his younger friends off to Hogwarts. He had graduated last year, but deffinitly had friends still in school. Aiden laughed at some small first years that were stressing about their moms emberrassing them. Aiden remembered his first year. No parents accompianied him to the platform. He had to deal with it all alone. Atleast he befriended Levi.
Levi....Aidens old best friend. Levi died finding the cure to the disease spreading around the wizarding world. He had been Aiden's best friend from the beginning. They were sorted into the same house, they were both apart of the same groups. In seventh year, that all changed. Aiden became too involved in hiding his secret, in girls, and trying to find the love of his life. Levi went to save to world, like the true Gryffindor thing to do. it broke Aiden's heart knowing that he could have stopped Levi if he paid more attention.
Shaking away the thought, Aiden smiled at some of his friends. Aiden was in a dark green teeshirt with blue jeans. (clothes) His hands were in his pockets as he watched the familiar sight unfold infront of him. Sixth years climbing swiftly onto the train to get away from their parents, Seventh years catching upi with their long time friends...
Aiden sighed as he looked around for two faces; Kathleen Jones and Holly Malfoy. Kathleen was his girlfriend since last year. They'd spent the summer together, exccept for a sad part that Aiden had to do alone. He had spent three days fixing up his old house, the house that held the memories of the attack. He found Kathleen catching up with some Ravenclaw friends. Holly was no where to be seen.
Aiden and Holly had seen each other once during the summer, when Aiden found out what she was going through. Aiden and Holly had both flirted constantly, but never dated...Aiden and Holly were like..friends with benifits, but...not. Aiden was deffinitly staying faithful to Kathleen, but he was struggling..not that anybody knew.
Talos looked around the platform for his twin brother, Myles Conway. The past summer, Talos had fouinf out the truth of their pasts. Sadly, Myles knew nothing of it. Talos was a darker, more cruel guy. Talos looked up some of his fathers old friends and found out about what they did. He was ashamed pof what his father had done. Learning that Talos was exactly how his father was in school, He decided to change. He wasn't going to get every girl...he was going to find one girl and love her.
Talos pushed all of his belongings towards the cart. Loading them onto the train, Talos found his compartment in the very back. He pushed his luggage onto the shelf abouve the seats. Talos sat down, staring out the window. He didn't notice when a sixthe year Slytherin came into the compartment. She had blonde hair and brown eyes. Her clothes were tight, showing her curves.
Talos noticed her sit down and said, "I'm talos." He realized she played on the Slytherin quidditch team with him, "Alyssa...hey." Alyssa and Talos had flirted, but he never had the guts to ask her out. talos didn;t ask girls to be his girlfriend. because they flirted, It was OK for talos to go sit by Alyssa. Infact, he lay so his head was in her lap, staring up at her.
Alyssa looked around the train and spotted talos sitting alone in a compartment. She made her way in and sat down across from him. he moved over and lay in her lap after saying hello. Alyssa's hands found his black hair that had grown over the summer. She stroked his hair and said, "Hello there, Talos Royce Conway." her hands framed his face, softly flowing over his nose, eyes and lips. her touch was feather light on his tough skin.

It was hard to think that just a year ago she walking onto the train with as much grace and beauty as possible. Just a year ago she looked like a Barbie, and loved every part of it. She was thin, she was happy, she was beautiful. As of now she would give anything for this year to be exactly like last.
But instead, she was the biggest person on the train. She looked like she was about to 'pop'. Her hair was messed up, and she had zero make-up on. Sure, to an average person she was still pretty, but if you had seen her before, with her make-up and blonde hair, you would think she looked like Hell. As she passed a compartment, she looked at her reflection. If she hadn't been so miserable at the time she would have been in shock.
Her natural brown roots were coming through, and her hair was every which way. She finally found an empty compartment and struggled to sit down. She was huge, eight and a half months pregnant, and ready to be skinny again. As some people passed by, that looked at her in shock. She reached her arm over and slammed the door. The door formed a small crack in the top corner.
It was not safe to be on Leila's bad side in the first place; but if you made the list while she was pregnant, you would seriously regret it. Leila looked down at her stomach. She had not yet thought about what she was going to do with the kid. She tried to not think about that she was going to be having a baby in a few days, but was reminded every minute of the summer break.
She normally loved summer, mainly because she was surrounded by shirtless guys, but do you think any guy wanted her this summer? No. She had been dreading this day for a long time, the return of Hogwarts. She had wanted the baby to come early, so that when she would come she would be her old self; but no. She had found out the baby's gender. Which she was very excited that it was going to be a little girl.
As you can tell, she was having mixed feelings about the baby. Part of her actually kinda liked the little twirt, but the other half told her that she needed to give the little thing up. But she did still have a few weeks to figure it all out. The baby hadn't came early yet, and it sure as hell wasn't going to come early now.

Brent frowned to himself as he listened to the sounds coming from the room next to his, his younger sister's, Grace's. It was a strange, low whistling noise that randomly varied in pitch with no particular pattern. Shaking his head and sighing, he closed the lid of his trunk and quietly walked down the hall to his sister's room, cracking up the door slightly. "Um, Grace?" Said Brent questioningly; Grace was still sound asleep. "Grace! Wake up! You're going to miss the bloody train," He said, louder this time, which caused Grace to sit up and yawn. It was then that he realized that the source of the strange noise was Grace's even stranger owl, Kooky.
"What time is it...?" Asked Grace sleepily.
"Seven-thirty. Train leaves at nine, but you know Dad...He'll want to apparate there at eight or something. You're packed, right?" Grace nodded as she slipped out of bed, yawning again, "And duck tape Kooky's mouth or something...That noise he makes is somewhat disturbing,"[/b[] Brent left the room to Grace's laughter, then went down the stairs into the living room, where his aunts Kacy and Kiera were having tea. [b]"Good morning," He told them both politely.
"Bonjour, votre neveu!!!" Exclaimed Kacy brightly. Next to her, Kiera raised her eyebrows.
"It's 'mon' not 'votre'. You just told Brent 'Good morning, your nephew!" Replied Kiara.
Kacy frowned, flipping a book in her lap to a random page; Brent saw that it was a French-English dictionary, "Why are you learning French again, Aunt Kacy?" Asked Brent amusedly as he grabbed a biscuit and sat on the bottom of the steps. Apparently, Kacy was a bit preoccupied by Kiara's correction to hear him. A few moments later, a man with dark brown hair came through the door, papers haphazardly thrown in a pile in his arms. Ethan Savage was not the picture of a fairly high-esteemed wizard in the Ministry of Magic. "'Morning, Dad. You're late."
Ethan didn't pay any mind to Brent, as per usual, as he darted into his study, only to reappear minutes later to look at Brent oddly, "Why are you up this early?"
Brent sighed; ever since his mother had died from the virus, his father had been just a bit off in pretty much everything he did, "We go back to Hogwarts today. It's the first of September,"
"Is it really?" A slightly troubled expression covered his face as he glanced at the clock, causing his eyes to widen, "Grace! We're going to be late!"
This was Brent's cue. Finishing, his biscuit, he went back up the stairs to his room to get his trunk. A few minutes after his trunk was down the stairs, Grace came down as well, and within fifteen minutes, Ethan, Grace, and Brent apparated to platform nine and three-quarters. "Be careful at school this year," Ethan told both of them and embracing them in a huge hug that Brent and Grace returned slightly awkwardly.
"We will, Dad. I'll see you at Christmas," Brent said when Ethan let go of them. He and Grace made their way to the train in relative silence, "Don't get lost on the train, Gracie," He said to Grace as they parted ways on the train. Grace only replied with sarcastic roll of her eyes. Chuckling, Brent rolled his trunk down the aisle, looking for an empty compartment. However, when he found one with a slight crack in it, he raised his eyebrows. What in the world could have caused someone to slam a compartment door so hard? Opening it carefully, he glanced inside. "Well this explains the crack in the door," Murmured he to himself with slight amusement.

"Catie, are you done? We are going to be LATE!" said an exasperated Nancy. Normally, Catie would have been double excited to go back to Hogwarts, but Nancy knew that something had happened in the school, because of which Catie was acting like this. Maybe something related to a boy. It couldn't have been Levi. Nancy didn't know how, what and why, she was just sure that it was not Levi. But, she had formulated in her mind, that whenever she would find the person who'd turned Catie into such a depressed creature, she'd really mess him up. That was her vow to Catie, who knew nothing about it though.
"I'm done, I'm done. Hold on, I'm coming!"yelled Catie from her room. She was just doing some last minute packing, rather, she was packing at the last minute. Finally she closed the trunk, and ran downstairs, where Nancy was waiting breathlessly. "Finally." muttered Nancy.
Both of them teleported their trunk downstairs, and their mother, with tears in her eyes and a proud smile, embraced their daughters. "Have fun at Hogwarts, girls." Normally, it would be Catie who would be leaving for Hogwarts, with Levi and Lauren. But both of them weren't there. Until last year, Catie had been under the impression that Nancy wasn't a witch. She knew that only last yeat, when Nancy transferred to Hogwarts. She had had no idea that her father was working at the ministry, until last year.
Their mother, gave them both a couple of boxes filled with delicious cookies. Even though Nancy and Catie had different tastes, and had stark differences, they both loved their mother's cookies. "Mother, we love you-" said Catie, smiling feebly for the first time in the holidays, at least according to Nancy. "And we'll miss you!" continued Nancy. After a gorup hug, both of them said in unison, "Take care, mother."
Then, they reached the station, and hurriedly walked towards Platform Nine and three quarters. There, the trains was waiting, and all Hogwarts students were saying goodbye to their parents. They hopped into the train, and on spotting an empty seat, she ushered Catie inside. After they were confortable and the train had started moving, Nancy said, "Hey, listen, I'll be right back, okay?" Catie merely nodded her head, without once mmoving her gaze out of the window.
Catie had been appointed the prefect, [I'll fill the form soon] and just wanted to go meet the Head boy and girl, and the other prefects, although she was reluctant to leave Catie alone that too in her depressed state. Also, she knew that Catie would be in no mood to do so. Besides, being her twin, was in Nancy's favor. She would tell Catie everything, once they reached Hogwarts. That ought to remove her from depression.

"What are you doing Shakti?" asked Aanya, who was watching her sister pack in a very unorderly manner. For her, everything had to be neat, tidy and in order. Her sister was just the opposite to her. She was dumping all her contents into the trunk, and was wearing a dirty-looking shirt and loose jeans, with a soccer ball in her hand. Shakti liked the muggle sport of soccer very much, and moreover, it was her first year at Hogwarts. She didn't like quidditch as much as she loved soccer, but quidditch was her second favorite sport.
"Sam." Said Shakti, nonchalantly.
Shakti was totally familiar with Aanya's control freak nature. But, she didn't prefer to be that orderly. It was normal for Shakti to be not so tidy, and Aanya always chiding her for not being so. "Is that how you pack - what?"
"For heaven's sake, Aan, my name's Sam.. not Shakti." Shakti sighed and said. Aanya had a smirk on her face while replying, "You'll always remain Shakti for me, kid sister. And your name's Samantha, not Sam."
"Are you both finished, darlings? Your dad is waiting downstairs. Hurry up." that was their very beautiful, and wonderful mother.
"I'm ready, Ma, Shakti isn't." Aanya informed her mother. Their mother looked at Samantha with a mild form of a glare. "Samantha?" Hastily, and trying to avoid trouble, she said, "Rubbish, I'm ready too, Ma. I'm ready."
"Okay then girls, go downstairs, and wait in the car, I'll come." Just as she was transporting trunks, she heard her husband calling her, "Shilpa.. the kids are going to be late.""I'm coming David!" she said, hastening the transportation, and then sat in the car.
On reaching the desired platform, Aanya;s father hugged her first and then her mother. "Hun, take care, okay? And make sure Samantha stays out of trouble. Have a safe trip, and just enjoy yourself." Those were her mother's words as she embraced Aanya. Samantha had the knack of getting into trouble. While Aanya abided by the rules completely, Samantha loved to break them.
Her father was giving a little lecture to Samantha, who was now being embraced by their mother. It was then her father's turn to talk to her, who merely said smiling, "Sweetheart, we love you, and keep writing." Aanya told both her parents that she would, and asked them not to worry. "Dad, we love you too. I'll take care of her." Aanya assured them, as they boarded the train.
She searched for an empty cabin, and told Samantha, "Stay here, I'll be right back." She went in search of her friends, especially Alary and Kally, and hoped that she wouldn't run into the jackass Talos again; she also wanted to see Kath, who, she spotted, was making out with her boyfriend at that time. She decided that she'd just talk to her later. She couldn't wait to get back to Hogwarts and start an exciting year.

The nightmares never stopped. And for that very reason, Abigail feared going to sleep. Slowly she turned into an insomniac. Her fear for the stronger sex hadn't lessened, but she was a wee bit comfortable with Bryce, since she was staying with him. Her memory hadn't returned, so that wasn't wokring to her advantage. All she remembered was the worst incident that took place, because of which she was there.
She had become very quiet, and never spoke until necessary. Bryce was like an angel, her knight in shining armor. She had become the girl in the house, doing every chore, because she had nothing to do. She remained tomboyish, although she was acting more like a girl should. Bryce had been very supportive and caring, and she would be grateful to him for the rest of her life. She had also started developing certain feelings for him, if only her fear didn't get in the way.
HAving nothing better to do, she had started packing, which she should have done a few days earlier. Thank god for her insomnia. Just as she was packing, his voice startled her. "Are you going somewhere, Abigail?" Bryce asked, very softly. She nodded her head, as she continued to pack. "Where?" After taking a deep breathe, she replied very slowly and her voice was barely a whisper. If he wasn't paying attention, he wouldn't have heard it. "School. My school."
"Do you go to Hogwarts, too?" he asked all of a sudden. She stopped packing and looked at him, her expression reading - 'How?' He pointed towards her wand, and robes, and her books, which were yet to be packed. She nodded her head, again. "That's nice. I go to Hogwarts too. We can go together." Abby nodded her head, while Bryce headed to sleep. She didn't know how she had missed all his hogwarts stuff, or how he had finished his packing without her noticing.
When they had to leave, he informed her that he would be apparating, and all she had to do was hold onto him and the trunk. She did so, and felt the fuzzy feeling when they apparated. "Thanks." she said, feebly, upon reaching the station. She helped herself, and sat in a lonely corner of the train.

Kath was in her adopted parents; home. She was staying there because her adoptive mother, Angelina was giving birth to twins. She wanted to be there for her, as she was the eldest in the family. She'd told Aiden that she'd meet him at the platform, on the first of September.
Off late, she had been quite bubbly and cheerful. She was humming a tune to herself when she heard a voice. "Quite happy, are we, Kath?" She turned to see Angie and Brad who were holding the twins in their hand.
"Ahh, Angie, Oh my god, look at them, they are so cute, oh hey, they even have fingernails. They are shooo beautiful Angie. Brad, both of you, I'm so proud of you!" She cuddled them, and played with their fingers.
"Sometimes I forget, whether we are older than you, or you are." Brad said, ruffling her hair. Kath beamed, and they laughed.
"So, hun, all set for the last year of your schooling?" Brad asked her.
"Yes, almost done. But I'd like to play with these cuties, here. Haven't thought about names, have ya?" She asked, as she was playing with the twins, one female the other male, inheriting all the good features from their parents.
"I've done my part, Brad still has to brainstorm, and don't do that for so long, otherwise, you'll miss your train, sweetheart."
Kath nodded. "Typical Brad. So, what did you think about?"
Leon and Vivienne, now you have to leave, you'll miss your train otherwise!" Angelina told her, as she was packing for her.
"Alright.. Don't be so hasty in shooing me away, both of you." She finished her packing, and trasfigured her trunk and placed it in her purse.
"Boone and Aimee, don't trouble Angie and Brad much, leave that to me, okay? Well then, Angie, Brad, I should be off, now."
"Aww, come here!" They both hugged her. "You know, have fun, it's your last year of school, and make us proud! Take care, sweetie!"
She used to floo network to get to London, and took a cab to the station. She walked to the platform, in her blue sundress, matching the color of her eyes, her blonde hair flowing in waves, her stilletos clicking everytime she took another step.
The moment she stepped on the platform, buzzing with eager parents and students. Her eyes caught his, and she winked at him. She went to catch up with all others, and after sometime, she dragged Aiden to a silent corner and gave him a sizzling kiss. "Miss me?"
After finishing her conversation with Aiden, she moved to the train, searching for Leila. Even though, she couldn't be with her, she was in constant correspondence with her the whole vacation. She was going to have a girl. Finally, she found her. "Lei!" She hugged her. "Oh my god, sweets, how are you? I'm here now, alright.. don't worry. I'll be with you... okay? All the while. Worry, not." She squeezed her hand, as Lei's head was on her shoulders. Leila was going through a tough time, and Kath was her best friend, she was going to help her through the times.

Leila's eyes moved fiercely to a boy who just poked his head in the compartment. "Do you honestly want to show any form of amusement right now?" She glared at the boy, who she couldn't think if she had seen him or not before. The moment of glsring was up then when Kathleen walked in. "Hey Kathleen!" Leila hugged her back, although she really didn't want to be touched right now. Luckily, most of the mood swings were over, it was just she was always angry now.
"I'll be fine Kath, I mean how hard can it be delivering a baby? It probably doesn't even hurt, and women just scream so that others will feel bad for them. Trust me, in a few weeks I'll be in The Hosital Wing, giving birth to a beautiful girl, pain free." Leila had actually convienced herself that this entire pregnancy was going to be as easy as pie; which once she has made her mind about something, there is no changing it. She was however, going to miss those crazy parties.. But then again it was after one of the crazy parties she found out she was pregnant.
Leila looked over in the doorway and saw that the guy was still standing there. "Kath, this is... Well, I don't really know his name," She said, hinting for him to tell them his name. "Anyways, Kath, has was your summer?" She was almost excited for Hogwarts to start again. For one, she was going to be able to see everyone again, including the father of her baby...
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.

Thinking back on memories of India, Talos remembered Aanya. They had met in India during a party for a show he and Brad were doing together. He had accidently run into her, spilling his sherbert punch all over her dress. he'd tried to appoligize many times. At about midnight, he and Aanya ended up in a private closet kissing. Once she kissed back, it was hard for him to stop. Talos had felt he'd gone too far and pulled away. he told her he as sorry for what had happened earlier. Sadly, she thought he was sorry for the kiss and kicked him in his soft spot.
Flinching, talos thought about the way she stormed out of the closet and wouldn't stop when he called her. It had been a bad visit. Talos had been in such a bad mood that hs acting was poor, causing him to be sent back to school for a few weeks before they resumed the film. Aanya would be at hogwarts this year. Maybe he would be able to make it up to her. Sitting up, Alyssa's hands fell from his head. Talos looked at her, "I'll be right back."
Talos stood and looked out at the students in the corridor. Usually he'd stay in his compartment with his "friends" or he'd prank others. Talos walked down the corridor and looked at the people. Some quickly ducked into compartments, others pressed up against the all. His fellow quidditch members gave him high fives or hugs. As he was hugging one chaser, he spoted the familiar hair of Aanya. Letting go, Talos said good bye to the girl. Dodging around others, talos quickly caught up to Aanya. Grabbing her wrist, talos said," I need to talk to you." Her hands were warm, but her eyes were chilled. Talos looked at her with a sadness in his brown eyes. Pulling slightly onto her wrist, Talos pushed open a door that was filed with first years, "Scat," he told them. They quickly left.
In the compartment, Talos locked the door and closed the curtains. He looked into her blue eyes and said, "I'm sorry for saying I'm sorry. I..I didn't mena I was sorry for the kiss. It's..well...I was saying I was sorry for spilling punch on you." Suddenly a patronus appeared. It was a cat, saying, "Talos, babe! hurry back to the compartment! Cassie is here and she needs somebody!"
His eyes widening, Talos looked at the cat in shock. Cassie. His exgirlfriend that had gotten together with a rapest. She'd been raped and had to go to a therapest. The only guy she could see was atlos. If she talked to any others, she'd break down. talos looked at Aanya who as glaring at him and then to the cat. He muttered the spell to send a patronus message, "I'll be there in a few minutes. Just keep her calm. Don't let her freak out and don't let anybody in the room."
"Aanya, Please come with me..I know you probably hate me but I have to deal with this. Cassie is a....challenge. And I've got to beat the challenge...and I have to be there. If you don't come, I'll find yo ua little later.." Talos opened the door and gave her one last look before turning into the hall. He shoved some people out of his way as he amde his way back to his compartment, not sure if Aanya was following. Opening the door, Talos left it open before falling to his knees in front of Cassie.
Talos took her hands and looked at her sobbing face. He whispered, his voice calm and soothing, "hey..Shh..We'll be alright. It's ok...shh. Whats happened, Cass?" His thumb stroaked her hand calmingly. Sitting up beside her, talos looked into her eyes. Her whisper was barely audiable. talos was the only one to hear it. Eyes turning cold, talos pulled cassie into a hug so she wouldn't see them. Looking at Alyssa, he mouthed, "It happened..again."
Hands stroaking her back, talos felt tears seep through his shirt onto his chest. He didn't care. One hand on her hair, the other on her back, talos rocked her back and fourth. It was a way to get her to sleep, a way to get her to open up more. As they rocked, talos looked at the open door....

“You know damn well that you’re going back to school!” Bellowed Scott. Tradger was lounging on his bed, staring apprehensively at his half-packed trunk. He sighed, “I don’t have to go back. Ton’s of people left last year. You don’t have to finish school. Besides, what do you care? It’s not like it is one of your schools. I have learned all I need to for becoming a pro Quidditch player.” Scott glared at him with sharp, hazel eyes. “You’re…mother would want you to finish school, Tradg.” Tradger laughed harshly, “Just another reason for me not to go back!” “That’s ridiculous!” “Scott, c’mon. You didn’t finish school!” “I’m not exactly the best example in the world, Tradger.”
The remained silent for a moment, both thinking of the next thing they could say in their banter. Tradger had nothing when Scott spoke up again, this time softer. “Tradger…if this not going to school is because you aren’t going to see your girlfriend when you get on the train, then you are being a moron. She’s a girl, Tradg, and you are still very young. Don’t go throwing your life away because your girlfriend moved back to Georgia! From what I have heard, girls throw themselves at your feet hoping you’ll consider them. There are plenty of girls Tradger. And you need to pick up and move on.”
Tradger glared at Scott. Why did he know all this? Then he thought for a moment. “You fell for my mum when you two were together, didn’t you?” Scott paled and he ran his hands repeatedly through his hair. “Now isn’t the time, Tradger. You need to get packing to leave for school tomorrow.” Tradger shook his head. “I can pack and you tell me what exactly went on with you and my mum. We’ve been avoiding the topic of her all summer.” Scott sighed and looked down at his shoes. “Alright…but only if you go to school.” Tradger gave in. He stood and began to pack his things while he listened to Scott explain everything that had happened.
“I had met your mom before she got married…I worked at a club that she had gone to with a few of her friends. I was a piano player for the house band and sang a few songs myself. So I’m up on stage doing the closing song. I’m completely into it, this love song that I had written. When I was finished, I looked out into the crowd, and at the front was your mum. She had this look to her….like the song had truly touched her…” Tradger made a face and Scott nudged him, “Hey, this is what you wanted to know Mr. Guitar player.”
“How’d you know about my guitar playing?” Tradger asked.
“I came home early from work, saw you in your room with one of my guitars. You should have told me you played.” Scott winked and then got on with his story. “So, when things calmed down a bit, I came out to get a drink at the bar. I was only sixteen at the time, but…well I was pretty closed with the people that worked there so he got me a drink. You’re mom came up to me…”
“You’re song was beautiful. Did you write all of the songs for the band?” She looked at him with admiring blue eyes. Scott smiled sheepishly and nodded. To avoid making a fool of himself in front of this girl he took a large gulp of his drink. That didn’t exactly help. The alcohol burned his throat and he coughed a few times. She giggled, “You’re pretty cute, and 21…I’m Nora.”
“I laughed when she thought I was 21. After that, she came to see me again at the club. We talked and we soon became pretty close. She inspired a lot of my songs. Anyways, probably a month after we had met each other she comes dashing into my flat jumping up and down like a crazy woman.”
“Eli proposed! Last night! See, isn’t it beautiful?!” She held out her left hand to show him her engagement ring. Scott smiled and looked it over. It wasn’t super expensive, but what could you expect from an eighteen year-old boy? “That’s great, Nor. Congratulations!” He glanced over at the flowers on his counter. In them was a card addressed to Nora.
“Time went on, you’re mum moved to London and I moved to Scotland. We just sort of drifted apart. Some years later she comes to my flat in tears. She started talking about how she thought Eli was cheating on her…” Scott frowned and rubbed his temples. Tradger had a feeling that he knew where this was going.
She sobbed into his shoulder, tears staining his brand new shirt. Scott consoled her the best he could. “I-I-I don’t know what I d-did wrong!” She sobbed, clutching the fabric of Scott’s shirt. “H-he doesn’t lo-love me anymore!” “Shhh…I’ll always love your Nora.” Where had that come from? Suddenly, she stopped crying and looked up at Scott. Out of no where, Nora kissed him hard and passionately.
“And then…well one thing lead to another…” Scott shrugged and a flush crept into his cheeks. Tradger stopped packing, “Let me get this straight. You slept with her, knowing full well that she was married! All girls are fair game until some guy puts a ring on her finger. My mum had a ring on her finger!” Scott chuckled ruefully, “Well, not that night she didn’t…she had taken it off and left it at home. To her it was some sort of vengeance…and to me it was a way to be with a girl I had always loved…So, one night she comes in all hot and bothered and says she wants to do it. Now.”
The front door of his flat slammed shut. That was weird. No one had a key to here but himself and Nora. Scott stood from his small studio and poked his head out the door. Nora looked upset about something, but it wasn’t like the first time. “Nora, are you ok?” “I’m fine…I just need to be with you…Now.” Scott scratched his head, “Alright but I need to run down to the drug store…I’m out of--" She shook her head, “I don’t have time for that. Come on.”
Tradger nodded. He was a bit disturbed by all this, but at least he knew everything. “So, that was the last time you saw her…and the time I was conceived…” He looked down at his watch. It was late. “Well, I guess I’m off to school tomorrow…even if there is no point.” Scott smiled, “Good night,” and left Tradger in his room.
The next morning, Tradger arrived on the platform alone. Scott was a little apprehensive about getting on the magical platform. He looked around automatically for Chace…but them he remembered. Tradger probably would never see Chace again….even if he did the outcome would not be favorable. Tradger hefted his trunk up the stairs of the train and dragged it along behind him. Finally he found an empty compartment. At the moment he still wasn’t too into any sort of social interaction. He would be content reading a book until they got to school.
Why do I do the things I do? Was I born this way? Am I a selfmade fool I shoot the lights and curse the dark I need your love but I break your heart And I know the words that'll bring you back

She smiled at Leila's attempt. "Nice one, Lei. I don't know, right? I don't have that experience. Maybe you could tell me." Kath winked at her. "Alright?"
Kath then saw her frowning and she followed her gaze. There was a guy leaning onto their door. She didn't know how she had missed him. "Never mind, I'll take care of him." She stood up, and said in a firm and stiff tone, "You aren't going to get any pleasure for yourself here, there's no party, and do us a favor and get lost. Please." She closed the compartment door on his face, and returned to her seat.
"No, Lei, you have to be strong, don't even think about it." said Kath, because she knew how Leila's mind worked. Sighing, she said, "My summer? It was good. I was with Aiden, most of it. Then I took him back home. You know, we had a lot of fun." She then turned a little scarlet, and smiled shyly.
---
Since Aanya couldn't find both her very good friends anywhere, she decided to take a break, and admire the wonderful scenery outside. She was standing behind the door of a compartment, when she heard the rush, and noises. It would be some quidditch team reunion, she mused. She ignored those noises completely, and folded her hands, while leaning onto one side. The breeze was making her hair fly in its direction.
She remembered the time she spent at her native place in India, with her mother's side of family. One particular incident, she would never forget. The kiss. She could still feel the fuzzy feeling, the racing heart of hers, his lips on hers. Instintively, she placed her fingers on her lips, as if, recounting the incident. Her lips slowly curled into a shy smile. She was blushing at his memory.
All of a sudden, she felt her wrist being grabbed. She was pinned onto the wall, with the person whom she hated and wanted to avoid; Talos Conway. He'd spoilt the moment, by saying sorry. She had assumed that he was apologizing for kissing her. What could she have been thinking? He was an actor, for heaven's sake, he probably would have kissed more than a hundred girls by then. She cursed herself, for feeling whatever she felt for him. Damn!
'I need to talk to you.' She had kept her gaze lowered, but when he said that, she couldn't stop herself. She made the mistake of looking into his eyes, and immediately felt her knees go weak.
When he dragged her, no words left her mouth. But when they were alone in the compartment, she struggled to get free. "What are you doing? LEave me alone! Get off me!" She struggled a little bit more, and said, "Talos, I said, Let go off me.."
He let go, and explained the reason why he was saying sorry. After a lot of consideration, she thought she should give him another chance. Just as she was about to reply, a patronus was in front of them, asking Talos to come back. Talos asked her to accompany him, as it was important for him. She stared at him for sometime, and then let a sigh. "Okay.."
They walked towards another compartment, and she followed him inside. Cassie and Alyssa were there. She smiled at Alyssa, because she was her friend. Observing what Talos was upto, she couldn't stop herself, "What are you doing, Talos? What's wrong with her?" For a minute she stood there in disbelief, and then walked off.
She couldn't believe herself. Was he staging some drama? What was he doing? What was the truth? Was he responsible for her situation? She didn't know what to believe and what not to believe. Talos always had the reputation of being the bad boy. Damn!

Rocking her back and forth, atlos heard as Aanya left. Looking from the door to Cassie to Alyssa, he spoke softly, "Please..go get her. tell her what's going on. I...I need to talk to her, but if she leaves and i can't get ehr, she'll never speak to me again..." The fire in his eyes had dwindles to hardly a spark. They were dull because Aanya had ran away...again. His black hair had grown long over the summer, but it seemed to turn shaggy and twisted.
Tears came to talos' eyes as he realized hwat Aanya must be thinking. Thet this was fake. He had such a past that everybody would believe it. But Cassie made Talos change for the better. He felt responsable, and he took responsability for a problem for the first time in his life. It was sad, but Talos had wanted to change, but he was so used to being the infamous bad boy. It was horrible.
Alyssa watched as her friend left the room. talos gave her a pleading stare. It just then hit Alyssa that Talos really did have feelings. He could truely care for people. He was taking care of one of his best friends, but was still concerned with the situation with his newest girl. This was different though. Alyssa had never seen talos stare at any woman with such intensity and heated love in his eyes. It was new for him, and she could tell he was struggling with how he felt.
His request was easy enough for Alyssa to follow through. Aanya and Alyssa were good friends. Getting up, Alyssa gave Cassie a soft look before quickly moving out of the compartment. She spotted the brown hair of Aanya not to far down the train, but she ahd many obticules. Third years playing around, a sixth year fight, groups of girls....Alyssa shook her head. Her patronus flew from the tip of her wand and headed towards Aanya.
The silvery cat stopped in front of Aanya, blocking her path. "Wait. I have to talk to you," it said in Alyssa's voice. T nodded over Aanya's shoulder to Alyssa stumbling past the third years, falling right into the middle of the fight some sixth years were having. A punch couldn't be stopped and it hit Alyssa right in the hip. Crying out in pain, Alyssa kicked at the boys that were fighting. She cursed as she pulled out her wand. The boys stopped fighting at that.
Walking away from it, Alyssa rubbed her hip. The reason it truely hurt so much was because the day before, she ahd gotten a new tatoo. She had two now. Her old tattoo was of a cat, her patronus. Her second was of a sun and moon. It was the same tattoo that her brother has. The shoot star was on her right hip. Talos had been there when she'd gotten it.
Talos and Alyssa had been friends for a long time. Alyssa had lived near his family. She had been apart of talos' group when he left. Sadly, she couldn't go with him. Keping in contact with him, Alyssa was the only person who had known where he was. When he came to Hogwarts in Fifth year, Alyssa spent her time with him. They had the same classes, and she helped him catch up on school work. Over the past summer, they had talked to some old death eaters that weren't caught. They found out that Talos Conway Sr. had fathered two children. One boy and one girl. The boy was Talos, his twin not really his twin at all.
The girl was Alyssa. That was the reason they had grown up near each other. Talos Sr. had children with the two neighbors. Myles Conway was named with talos' last name, but had none of his blood. The day before school had started, they went and got the same tatoo. The had it in different places. Hers was on her hip, his on his right shoulder.
Catching up to Aanya, Alyssa grabed her wrist. It was odd that they both grabbed wrists. Speaking in quick breaths, Alyssa said, "You have to talk to him. I can take care of Cassie if you'll just go talk to him. Please.."

Tears started falling from her eyes as she left the compartment, she couldn't believe that she was talked into believing him. Damn him. She was alright without him in her life, and she wanted that life back. All she did was think about him lately, and that irked her to no bounds.
Just as she was walking, a cat stopped her. It was Alyssa patronus. She wiped her eyes hastily, hoping that she hadn't seen her cry. Alyssa said she wanted to talk to Aanya. Aanya, on nodding her head, went to a quieter place, and saw that Alyssa had fallen and had hurt her hip. "Hey, Aly, are you alright? Wait, lemme have a look." She had a look at her hip, and murmured a chanting, so that Alyssa wouldn't feel the pain. "Better, now?"
"You have to talk to him...."
Aanya's heart stopped beating for a second. She had a hope that he had not been faking everything. But just as her hopes went high, she was crestfallen. She couldn't trust him. She looked at Alyssa with such hurtful and teary eyes. "I don't know, Alyssa.. I don't know." She spilled the whole incident to Alyssa, the meeting, the spilling, the kiss, and the sorry. She told Alyssa about her concerns, she had so many doubts when it came to him. She didn't know what to do, for the first time in her life.

It was difficult for him to rein his amusement at Leila's obvious irritation. Thankfully, another girl brushed past him into the compartment to take up Leila's attention. Instead of leaving, however, he leaned against the side of the doorway, waiting. What he was waiting for, he really didn't know. Besides, did anyone really need an excuse to stand in the doorway of this particular compartment? Leila and Kathleen were two of the most interesting people in their year....And that wasn't counting the fact that they were also beautiful.
As Leila prompted him for his name, he chuckled, "Brent. Brent Savage," Replied he with a handsome half smile, shaking his head slightly. It was rather funny how she didn't know his name when he had been in pretty much all of her classes since first year. Besides that, they were also in the same house.

Blake pushed her trolley through the barrier onto Platform 9 3/4 for the last time as a student. It was a strange feeling, but she couldnt wait to ge thte year started; to see all her friends, and ponder if any enemies had converted.
As soon as she was through, Bee patted her kat, Kara, to reassure her that everything was alright. She stood up straight (thanking that she was tall), tryign to spot at least one of her friends. She could go for Lauren, or Leila, or Tradger; Kally, she heard, had become quite close to one of her neighbours, who was freakishly similar.
Pouting slightly when she didnt spot anyone, Bee pushed her trolley towards the first carriage; It held practically all the 7th years, and was in better quality than the other carriages. She stowed her things in an empty compartment, and threw the window open. Tilting her head to the side, Blake had a humerous thought pop into her head. Pulling out her wand, she created a large-ish banner to hang outside her compartment.
Blake Vreeland is in this compartment feeling very lonely. Feel free to say hello
Sitting back into her chair, Bee pulled out a book. Someone would come, she knew that. Who it would be is a better question though.

The pain on her hip lessened, but she could still feel tingling. Looking at Aanya, she smiled, "Thanks. You're the best with those things." She rubbed her shirt where the tingling was, causing it to rise, showing her tattoo. Biting her lip, Alyssa covered it up. She looked at Aanya as she spilled the story. Alyssa looked at her, "You have got to be kidding me! Hes been fantasizing about you all summer! He keeps talking about you. I seriously think he truely likes you. If you....ugh! You must be crazy! Talos is the sweetest guy ever!"
Alyssa shook her head in a laugh, though Aanya was crying, "I'm sorry, but He isn't really what you think he is. He is hard to get to know, but once you break that shell, he's a huge softy. He's very romantic, very kind, sweet, the perfect boyfriend. He isn't able to break any girl's hearts. He hurts each time he does, and usually he breaks another girl's heart by accident to get over the first. He has chain reactions." Alyssa's hand was on Aanya's arm, "You just have to talk to him. He didn't fake that backthere. Cassie really does need his help. She..She's had a hard year."

She smiled. “You’re welcome. But that’s temporary, you know that Alyssa. I don’t have the healing powers. Therefore, once we get to the castle, you’ll have to head to the Hospital wing to treat it.” She wiped her tears slowly, and took Alyssa’s hands in hers. “Are you absolutely certain that it was me he was talking about?” She let out a chuckle. ”Really? I think you must be crazy. Talos? And the sweetest guy? I think you got the wrong person.” She scoffed, but she patiently listened to her. “You seem to know a lot about him Lyssa. Did he ever break your heart?” asked she softly, and then nodded her head. “Alright, I’ll go talk to him.”
She headed back to the compartment where Cassie and Talos were there. “Move!” She told Talos, and bent to mutter some chanting in Cassie’s ears. She drowsed off to sleep soon. Never shifting her gaze from Cassie’s. “I put her to sleep, dreamless, peaceful sleep.” She paused, for the intake of a deep and sharp breathe, “Don’t mess up this time Talos Conway Jr.” She stood up, turned around, grabbed him by his collar, and gently yet passionately placed her lips on his.

The guy introduced himself, just as Kathleen was about to shut the door on his face. Figuring it would be good, if they had some company for a while, she opened the compartment door again. The guy, who really looked handsome, was still standing there. "Well, Boone.. or Brent, whatever your name is, you can stay here for sometime. I have to go meet some people, and I'll be right back. Don't try anything stupid with her." Turning to Lei, she said, "I'll just be back, alright? Take care of yourself, and the baby."
She just wanted to go meet Talos, and a few others, whom she hadn't met. On the way, she passed by a compartment with a note hanging outside it. She opened the door, and asked, "Blake, are you alright?"
