He was also glad to be going home and spending time with the family. Always a good time.

But on the other hand. Charlie was graduating. He was going to miss the older buddy of his. And while he still had Will, it wouldn't be the same without the three of them.

Finding an empty compartment, Den took a seat on the bench to claim it hoping Charlie or Will would be along shortly. Although he wouldn't be opposed to it being a sibling or cousin either. Anyone else can just find their own compartment (except not really because he wasn't one to be rude and turn people away)
It was interesting to her that somehow, after how successful of a first term she'd felt like she'd had, the train ride home made her feel even more anxious than the first time on the Hogwarts Express had made her feel. She'd made some friends - truly she had! But there was still this nagging in the back of her head that told her no one would want to share a compartment with her - her sisters were popular and probably had LOADS more friends and Lally too! So she passed by all those she knew, family included, who were already seated somewhere lest she accidentally bother them.

But when she happened by Den, not yet accompanied by anyone, she took a DEEP breath and slid the door open - poking her head in and giving a small smile. "Hi Dennis. Can I come sit with you?" She didn't THINK he would turn her away, but until his other friends appeared perhaps she could sit for a little while and quiet some of her anxiety before she needed to get out of his hair again.
