The soon-to-be second year skipped merrily down the train until he reached it, pretty much flailing with excitement to go home. He hadn't seen his family since CHRISTMAS, and even though his siblings were considered EVIL in his books, he did miss them loads. And also, he wanted his new broomstick. Oh, the wonders of getting old!
He stroked his imaginary beard as he got to the trolley. So much choice. Sure, he could go for the obvious: chocolate frogs. But eh, those sugar quills looked fantastic, too...
Lilly skipped dow to the food trolley. Yes, skipped. She was in a good mood. No apparent reason, though. She didn't love going to Rupert's, there was no reason to. She wasn't happy about being almost fourth-year, 'cause it meant she was closer to O.W.Ls and leaving Hogwarts. What would she do then?
"Hi, little boy!" she said, waving to a kid who looked pretty excited. Probably at the thought of all these sweets, just waiting to be bought and eaten. Lilly knew his name began with a T, but nothing else about him. Oh, and he was in Slytherin.
"Do you think anyone would mind if I released all those poor chocolate frogs. Obviously I'd pay for them, but they wouldn't cause that much disturbance, would they?" Lilly wouldn't think so, anyway. Maybe the kid would have an opinion. He would be seriously hyper in just a few minutes. She bought a pack of Bertie Botts'. "Card," she said, swallowing it quickly. And clearly, it had lots of decorations. Glitter and bows and everything.
"Want one?"
