He ignored his mother's loving words, saying, "Be careful, darling. And write to us every week as usual!!" and went into the first empty compartment he stumbled across.
He exhaled heavily and tossed his shoulder bag onto the seat across from him. It felt good that his mother had decided to take him to the train station because that hadn't happened since his first year. With the types of jobs his parents had, they didn't have much time and usually sent the driver or a maid to accompany him. But why did she have to be so embarrassing about it?
He shook his head, willing the memory away before taking a seat near the window.
Victoria's summer hadn't been bad considering she hadn't passed ALL her OWLs. Her parents weren't all that disappointed, though, and V was pleased she had passed any at all. Spending the summer abroad in Canada had been different, though. She hadn't gotten to see any of her friends, only send letters. And she missed everyone, but she felt an extreme disconnect from Hogwarts as well.
It felt...strange to be back.
She had missed Lisa and Serena the most, but also Stewie. And....weirdly enough, Daniel. Hmm.
Speaking of the handsome Hufflepuff, V spotted him on the platform, but she hadn't noticed his embarrassing mother-son moment because she had been saying her goodbyes to her own parents before boarding the train. Following his trunk, she dipped into the compartment after him, smiling a bit as she did so.
"Hey!" she said as she took a seat across from him, nudging him with her foot.
"How are you?" did she look positively GLOWING from her summer in Canada????? Speaking FRENCH all summer and enjoying BREAD?
