So, making her way down the train with her black cat, Luna, trailing behind her, and her pygmy puff, Rave, snuggling on her shoulder, she spotted a empty area, and quickly took it, stuffing her luggage and such onto the upper area glad to have the weight of her shoulders and arms. Sighing, she plopped into the seat, Luna jumping up onto her lap, purring contently as Jenn scratched it's ears.
EEEP! Her BOOK!
Standing up quickly, making Luna hiss as she landed on the floor, Jenn jumped up to grab her bag, huffing at how insanely tall the racks were, until finally she caught the strap of the bag, and pulled it down. Setting it in the corner of her seat, she searched through it until she found her book. Grinning, she sat back down, patted her lap for Luna to sit back down on, and opened her book, content now.
"Yes. Yes, I know, father. I know. Yes. Okay. Goodbye. Goobye, mother. Okay. Yes. Goodbye." Sheesh! What was with these people!? They had never really seen him off for school, and they decide to do it in his
sixth year? I mean seriously. He was almost
seventeen. He could take care of himself. And he didn't need his stuck up parents to tell him goodbye before he got onto the train.
Kel was now in a not-so-great mood. But, thankfully, he was now free of parental supervision for the next ten months! That was something he could be happy about. Plus, he'd be with Jenn, and all of his other friends. There ya go - there
was a bright side! He was now sort of smiling as he lugged his trunk and owl cage down the train. The owl cage was the easy part, since Jasmine was perched haphazardly on Kel's left shoulder, one little taloned foot resting on Neige, making sure the pygmy puff didn't roll off Kel's shoulder.
Yes, Kel's pets had a very weird, love-hate relationship. He didn't try to understand it.
Sighing, not being able to find anyone he knew, Kel was about to turn around and go snag a seat at the front of the train. But just then, he happened to look into a compartment and see a familiar looking brunette head bent over a book. He quietly opened the door, willing Jasmine to keep her beak shut.
"Jenn!" he exclaimed as he dragged his trunk into the compartment.
"Mind if I join you?" he paused in his dragging to smile over at his girlfriend, nodding his head in as much of a bow as he could do without dumping his animals onto the floor. He finished pulling his trunk in, put it up on the rack along with the owl cage, and then plopped onto the seat, stetching his legs out in front of him.
"Hey, Jenn." he added, half-smiling.
