And if they did they would have to live a completely different life... or make sure the neighbours weren't muggles...

"It's beautiful..." she said, glancing out of the window as the train began to move. She glimpsed a shock of red hair, startlingly similar to her own, ten noticed it was Kryspin, stood on the platform, waving at her. Wait... he hadn't gone home when he said he had..? The cheeky so-and-so. Oh... he was stood with a very pretty looking blonde woman... she hoped, for her own sake, it wasn't someone's mother... Anyway, she waved at her idiot older brother as he disappeared from sight. "The castle I mean." she added, turning back to Bradley. "And you'll get it, most people have no idea what's going on when they first get there - everyone gets into it pretty quickly." She reassured him, tickling the sleepy, purring Sebastian's stomach as she spoke.

"Alive?! No! It's just a charm... hang on." Aurora produced her wand from a pocket - she could finally use it now that she was on the train. She took a fresh jelly baby from the bag and pointed her wand at it. "Watch. Finite Incantatem." she muttered, hoping it would work. "Now listen." She popped the jelly baby into her mouth and chewed it... silently. She swallowed. "See? Just a silly charm."
See. He had no idea of the difference between instruments. "Oh" He knew the basics and that was all he felt he needed to know. It wasn't like he was looking into a career in music. "You want to play it professionally?" he asked. She seemed very keen to tell him about it, very knowledgeable. It was interesting if she was, considering most of these kids were probably looking into magical careers. Bradley? He had no idea what he wanted to do with his life. "We live in a terrace in the middle of London" A slightly posher part as well. "Don't think the neighbours would appreciate it" he laughed slightly imagining their responses.

He watched as she waved goodbye to someone, glancing at the parents faces, some of them upset some of them proud. A part of him wanted his parents to stay and see him off but the boy had asked them to remain on the other side of the wall and that was where he had left them along with his younger sister. His thoughts were disturbed and his head snapped up as she continued to speak. "Yeah I've heard. There's a lake ain't there? And loads of land" Good for playing sports then if he were ever to get bored. Good job the football lay within his case. "I hope so. I'm already trailin' behind a bit, wanna catch up as much as possible." He didn't want to be seen as the stupid muggle kid that knew absolutely nothing.

He breathed a sigh of relief as she informed him that they weren't alive. Bradley shoved the rest of the sweet in his mouth and swallowed, trying to ignore the screaming that was coming from within. "It's a bit weird ain't it? Why would you have screamin' jelly babies?" To freak out the new muggleborn kids. Was that it?
