"Mind if I sit here?" Sam asked. "I'm Sam by the way," he said to the first year girl. Quote:

After saying goodbye to her with a sloppy kiss on her curly hair, he had boarded the train in the middle of his mother's fourth sobbing fest. It was completely dramatic and definitely expected. Brinlee and Mama were very in tune and like with their emotions and when one bled, the other bled.
That wasn't his problem anymore and with a final wave to his father, the now-12 year old made his way along the train to find somewhere to sit until Calliope or Catie found him. It was al up to them, of course. He and Pomme would sit here and wait. Well...sit somewhere.
He watched another lad open up a compartment and ask to sit in there, so Rooney assumed that it was occupied. No problem there, though. But as he walked past, his cat darted inside and straight for the girl in there already. Straight for her ruddy lap. It was okay because Pomme was a gentle cat and was just looking for an ear scratch or some love. But it was still so very embarrassing. "Sorry! Sorry! He's mine, he's-- sorry!!" His genuine apologies went over the other boys head and Roo gave Pomme his best evil eyes.
He was an actor, so they were very good. Between the time it took to get settled and for someone else to want to share the compartment, Riley had made herself very much at home and comfortable. She had her feet long ways across the seat and was leaning against the wall next to the window, so when someone did come to the door, she could see them straight off. Like the boy that had just stuck his head through the door.
Riley offered the boy, Sam, a big smile and nodded. "C'mon in. There's PLENTY of room." Across from her, maybe, but that was beside the point. "Oh and my name's Riley," she replied because knowing each others names meant they were now acquaintances, and the more acquaintances she had, the better.
Before she could ask him anything else or launch into her 'excited about Hogwarts' speech, though, someone something else came into the compartment. Straight into her lap. A CAT. "'ello there, little one," she said with a grin on her face. Odd situation, maybe, but she took it in her stride and stroked the cat behind its ears. OOPS. Then off went her cat into Sam's lap. She looked up at Sam and gave a shrug and an apologetic look before looking up and noticing that the not-her-cat's owner (Rooney) had entered the carriage. "Don't worry about it," she giggled, "cats will do what they wanna do." She'd owned a cat for a grand total of one week, but this new boy didn't know that, so for all he knew she was an expert. |
