He wouldn't be around anymore to keep his friend out of trouble leaving it to the boy's girlfriend to handle.
Hmmm, Josh? Trouble?
...
She didn't think about that before until now.
"Nooo, I'm sure he'll be as troublesome as a prefect." she smirked, glancing over to her boyfriend. Well, that could go either way actually. Prefects were supposed to be role models weren't they? Yet everyone else had problems with them. Hmmm, probably not the best analogy then.

Something was bothering him, but she was not going to inquire as to what. They were friends being that they were both on the team, but they barely spoke, so she was glad that he was allowing her to join them. Although he was without a doubt the Quidditch clown of the team he was a nice guy, so maybe her trepiditions about him not wanting her there were unwarranted. Then his eyes traveled to the girl next to him... Evelyn! She felt awful, she didn't even see her on the way in.
Selina looked at Evelyn and extended her hand, "I'm so sorry, I didn't see you. I'm Selina Skylar. You must be Evelyn." She was being as nice as she could, but in all honesty she felt so embarrassed by her slip up of not even seeing the girl. She wanted to attribute it to the fact that she was looking for familiar faces and she didn't know Evelyn well, but deep down she knew that she had just messed up... she didn't see her.
Then Selina's gaze left Evelyn when she heard the familiar voice of her Quidditch Captain Simon. Or now was he not her Captain? Well she assumed that he would always be her Captain. He was her friend and Quidditch is what allowed them to even be friends... so he would be Captain Simon and maybe even Professor Bennett depending on her mood.
Once she returned his grin Selina heard him mention something about having all of his friends around him. This comment made her smile even broader. She was always surrounded with much older friends, even Kurumi who was her best friend was a year older than her, but she was glad that at least Simon looked at her friendship the way she did. She was thrilled to be counted in among the people he wanted to spend his last train ride with back home.
"All we need is Carter and it's like a little Quidditch reunion party," then she looked over and saw Evelyn sitting there next to her boyfriend and commented, "but-but your the girlfriend of a player and a player yourself so..." she knew she was putting her foot in her mouth and said, "I'm going to shut up now."
Hmmm. No, she wasn't blind so she did see the younger girl offer her hand as a greeting, but...well Evelyn just didn't do the whole 'handshake' thing. It was nothing against the girl but...with the Slytherin's extreme personal space issues and everything, it just wasn't going to happen.
"Skylar." she greeted, in the same cold-ish tone she had used with Kurumi as she eyed the hand. Eh.
On the other hand, the girl was quite amusing trying to make up for the few mistakes she'd made with Evelyn already. Almost to the point where the Slytherin mentally forgave her for practically trampling over her and totally not noticing her in the compartment from the start which was a SERIOUS crime in Evelyn's opinion.
For now though, she'd just stare at the girl, not really commenting on anything after giving her one word greeting.
Stare. Staaaare. Quote:

They had spent a little more time together outside of the classroom - and outside of Kurumi handing Josh cookies - so perhaps that had something to do with it. Kurumi wasn't really aware of it, but Cookie Hater Evelyn was rubbing off a little on the lioness.
"Selina!" Kurumi chirped nearly jumping out of her seat - it would be rather difficult considering that the compartment was a little cramped. She patted the open space next to her instead.
How many Gryffindors would it take to make a Slytherin feel uncomfortable? Well, they were currently at a ratio of 4:1.
...
It was Kurumi's voice that had glancing away from the other Gryffindor, only have spotted...
"Walnut!" she exclaimed, smiling down at the ADORABLE kitty who rubbed on Josh's leg. Good Merlin, that made her suddenly remember that she too had a cat, but where that half kneazle was, the Slytherin girl had no idea. If she wanted to hang out at the castle all summer, than that was fine by her.
Teehee, Walnut was here anyways.
"How is the most adorable kitty in the world?" Hmmmm? Hmmmmmmmmm?! Why did he have to be so far away where she couldn't pet him?

Still standing aside, Josh kept staring at his girlfriend as she just...stood there as well as she spoke to the others in the compartment. Eh? Was not she going to step in? Or maybe it just seemed too crowded for her. He would understand that. So taking a step closer to her instead, he remembered that thing he had suggested at the feast. ''It is okay if i told you that we still need to talk, isn't it?''
Apparently she wouldn't be able to.
No matter, there was always the next train ride to look forward to. Besides. Josh was way more important than the kitty. On the other hand, it didn't make the hazel eyed girl any less nervous as her imagination ran through plenty of ideas on what Josh needed to talk about.
"Yes, of course..." she muttered, turning her gaze away from the kitty and to her boyfriend.
...
"Now...?" Like, right now did he want to talk?
