Well, there was always next term. "So what are you doing over the summer?" asked Hugo in an interested tone.

I kind of went looking for it this time," she giggled offering him a licorice wand. "
I really needed something sweet to, um, lighten the mood a bit." She hadn't been in the mood to bake cookies for the train ride back, not like usual. Her spirits were both crushed and elated at the same time. It was a very confusing time.
