Jessie/Abby (you know you're only one) <3

She was all ready for the Hogwarts express today. Wand? Check. Make ups? Check? Body scrub? Check. Hair Care? Check? Yes, she was vain. It was never denied.

Erin looked for her friends so that she'll not be left alone in an empty compartment with no one to share it with. And then, someone would gate-crash her place, bully her and she'll regret that she'd even boarded the train. Yes, she was a girl who considers the outcomes of her doings. And that was a good thing.

While looking around, she noticed someone, a first year more likely, who was sitting on bench alone, a person who's black in color. "You're a black person!" Erin exclaimed.

''Sorry never mind,'' she smilied and nodded awkwardly she didn't belive she'd see n the girl before... maybe in classes? But she tended to focus more on the lesson than the people who were there

''I'm LuLu,'' she smiled

Caelyn knew it was only a matter of time before someone joined her in her empty compartment. The train was so packed with kids of all ages that she considered herself lucky to find an empty one in the first place. Feeling woozy from looking out the window, she turned away, legs still crossed and pulled out a packet of bubblegum from her bag. Yesssss, that would calm her down. Or hype her up...

But what if the train went over a bump and she accidentally swallowed it?

?!?!! ....
The door creaked open suddenly, and Caelyn looked up but was still focusing on not swallowing the gum in her mouth. "Err.." She responded to the girl's first half-inquiry. But then she stopped.

"Okay then." The blonde smiled, and straightened her legs out from the crossed position. "Hey there, nice to meet chu." She gave her gum a quick chew. YUMMMEHHHH, it tasted so good. "I'm Caelyn, and I'm kinda new so please be nice." She chuckled. Only jokin, the girl looked nice.

However, now that she had revealed her 'newbie' status, she was now vulnerable. Crap.

Messer pushed himself and the trolley through the crowd. He was here! In the King's Cross station and he finally old enough to abroad the Hogwarts Express. He has to hold himself from jumping up and down when he saw the train for the first time. It was HUGE and did he already said HUGE?

There're a lot of people there. He didn't know that it'd be this crowded. There're sooooooo many faces but he can't find someone that he know. That mean he needs to make some new friends so the ride won't be so boring.

Ehh.. WHAT? O__O

She peeped over her shoulder it was nothing... OK-AY

''Nice to meet you'' Oh she was a newbie?That's why she didn't know her... She looked about her age atleast thirteen right? maybe fourteen she didn't know... She wasn't a firstie if that was the case she wouldn't be talking to her not that she was snobbish but..thaatt..She was moody somtimes and she didn't like taking it out on ickle little firsties even though she didn't do so before... ''Caitlyn! Cuute,'' Nice? yeah that was possible she could try right? ''Oh so what year you going into... I'm going in third,'' she smiled and looked around

Aurora followed the white cat who was now playing with the kids shoelaces. "Um, hello... sorry about him." she said to the boy, bending down to scoop Sebastian up into her arms. "He likes shoelaces..."

Without even thinking, she blew a bubble with her gum, (and she was a bubblegum pro, mind)... the bubble went huge until it popped all over her face. Her cheeks reddened as she got the murky bits off her nose and chin. Why did she always humiliate herself like this? WHY.

"Sorry, uh... Always get a bit carried away with gum.." Yea... that didn't sound too creepy, right? Gosh, now her face was all sticky. The thirteen year old reached into her bag once again, wrapped her used gum into some paper, and pulled out a wet wipe to clean her face. Much better. Coughing shortly, Caelyn looked back to LuLu. Right... HUH?
CAITLYN? She was pretty sure that she did not introduce herself with a 'T' in the middle of her name.

Nope. That would not do.
"CAELYN, actually." The blonde almost bellowed. "Reeeeally? I'm going into third year, too!" That was lucky. She would probably feel very patronised if LuLu was a seventh year. But she did look young so there wasn't too much worry there. "You're a returning student then?" She asked, then paused, "You must tell me all about Hogwarts!"

"I'm talking... nice teachers, mean teachers, secret hideouts, most fun places. Ya get my drift?"
THIS KNOWLEDGE WAS ESSENTIAL.

How cute! The eleven year old was about to pick the cute creature himself when a girl already scoop the cat up.

"That's okay. He didn't eat the whole thing up anyway." Thank Merlin that he's not or he'd left without a shoelace in his shoes. "He likes shoelaces?! For a moment I thought there was something in my shoelace that made him to chew it." he chuckled. "He's sooooo cute. Can I pet him?" Pwease.

Text Cut: Prudence

Harvey nodded as Prudence spoke "Yes I know what you mean.. I have heard that twins can communicate without saying a word.. and I guess" he looked at Minnie and then back to Prudence "it could be the same way with us as well.. sometimes we just sit there saying nothing.. so yes it could be like that.." he said smiling as he saw Prudence grin sheepishly as she ran her fingers through her hair..

Aurora smiled at the kid, "Yeah, he plays with them all the time... that's why I don't have them." She gestured to her boots; She had removed her shoelaces and replaced them with a few safety pins. "Else he'd follow me round all day." He did anyway... but at least she knew that was because he loved her... and not just for her shoelaces. "Sure, he's called Sebastian." She shifted the fluffy white bundle of fur in her arms so that he was looking at the boy. "He's very friendly... I'm Aurora by the way."

She handed them to her ''I had that experiance in front of many more people so your alright,'' she winked at her even though wasn't much of a wink.. more like a squint since she was looking in her bag again

Caelyn? Oh... AWKWARD ''Sorry never heard of any name like that I probably heard you right bt then heard you wrong cause i'm not much with names,'' she didn't know if she'd understand but she just took that she did

OOOOOoooooohhhhhhh!!! Another third year they seemed to all dissappear... Scary! ''Yer...'' she thought that was quite obvious but possibly not! ''Yeah sure!,'' she nodded! ''Teachers? Well there's two new teachers no three so I can't say about the DADA teacher the CoMc teacher and th runes teacher lucky though they weren't all exactly... great,'' she grimaced! The Runes teacher she did not understand like EVER? The man was very poor in English it was actully sad!

"Hey there Sebastian." Messer pet the white cat. "My sister has a cat too but he's not too friendly." He still remembered when that creature scratched his hand because he accidentally spilled his food. "Nice to meet you Aurora. I'm Messer." he gave the girl a polite nod. "I'll be starting my first year this term. How about you? What year are you?" She seems a little older than he is. Maybe a third or a fourth year?

Sebastian purred as the boy stroked him. Aurora grinned, "And you, Messer." Weird name... maybe he was really messy or something and that was his nickname... "I'll be in fourth year. Slytherin." she added, "D'you know what house you want to be in?" she asked, remembering her first term. She'd been pretty certain she'd be in Slytherin... it was a family thing - except with her uncle... he'd been... different - but other kids didn't seem to know... or even care.

Aurora is a Slytherin?! :blink: She doesn't look like one. She's really nice not like the scary Slytherin girl he met back in the Diagon Alley. Maybe not all the Slytherin was bad. "Yes. I'm hoping for Hufflepuff." Its his mother house, he always wanted to be put in the same house like her. "So are you excited for your fourth year?" Because he's certainly is.

"Oh, cool." she said, smiling. Was she excited..? "Yeah, 'course! Though I have a load of extra studying to do and stuff." Urgh... extra work. "What are you looking forward to most?" she asked, then noticed she was making small talk and thought to herself; Hey! Look at me! I'm like... making friends. Sure with a first year... but I'm doing it!

Logan walked as quickly as he could, he wanted to be as far away as possible from Cardigan. Once he was sure he was out of sight, he slumped against a wall and sat down on the ground. Ugh. Why had he been so stupid?! Now Cardigan would hate him forever...she'd never talk to him again! He watched as his cat, Peeta, made his way to him.

Keefer lugged his things toward the train and set them down to catch his breath. He looked around, hoping to see someone he knew. It was almost a hopeless task, given the amount of steam that made it hard to see more than five feet in any direction. He sighed. Guess I'll have to to wait for it to clear up a bit.

Text Cut: Caroline ^_^

As she walked onto the platform, one hand pushing the trolley carrying her trunk and Cally's cage and the other hidden in her pocket, Vashti couldn't believe it was time for her seventh year to start already. She also couldn't believe the badge she now had in her pocket. How long should she keep it there, anyway? Should she put it on now? when she got on the train? when she got to Hogwarts? She had no idea. Hopefully she'd be able to find one of the other prefects - surely they'd know when was the right time to wear their badges.

She might've wandered around a bit more, lost in thought as she was, until she spotted a familiar face a few feet away. Merlin! "Caroline!" she called, grinning and walking over to the older girl. "Hey! What're you doing here?" Perhaps she'd found a way to get back into Hogwarts after graduating? Heh.

SPOILER!!: Minnie, Harvey and Prue

I actually almost wasn't able to come back, but that is another story for another day. Anyway, I am sad she isn't here, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't be friends with both of you if you both were standing here right now. I would have been friends with both of you. Which means I will be your friend and I won't get tired of you." Minerva grinned at Cody she was really beginning to like her. She listened as Cody and Harvey talked and then she interrupted. "We have gotten into our share of trouble, so don't worry about us. I don't know if Hogwarts does I remember last year seeing a boy with a cell phone, but he said he can never get reception there."

"Yeah..." she trailed off agreeing with Harvey. "I wish we could get wi-fi... mum basically got Abby and me addicted to it because we live in the muggle world because of her... she works with IT stuff so... it's hard not to get used to having it..." if only they would get laptops or something for the students... much preferable over quills and scrolls in Prue's view.

Harvey listened to Prudence.. "Yeah I understand what you mean.. I am a muggle-born... so that stuff is very common in our house.. it was hard at first not having the technology but then I didnt have much time what with school work, class and hanging out with my friends" he looked at Minnie.. with her time just flew it seemed the time was not enough "you lose track of time.. well that is how I felt anyways" he said to Prudence ... smiling .. he was meeting new people all the time..

Prue nodded to what he said. "I think I spent most of last year staring at my Ipod in class wishing it would start to work... considering I didn't have a lot of friends besides my sister who I hardly see aside from classes and when looking to the other side of the hall during meals to see her reading a random book..." she stated laughing at her self, but not failing to notice the look he shot at Minnie... they were so cute!

Harvey was a bit shocked to find thay she didnt have alot of friends. That was him and Mins in the beginning it was juat them two since they met on their very first train journey to Hogwarts. So he knew what she meant "Oh well now thatt you have met us we hang out often you are welcome to join us anytime. We will all hang out together it will be fun. " he said smiling

"Thanks..." she trailed off, grinning as she shifted to lean against one of the seats. Having friends this year would probably make like a lot more... interesting to say the least!

"Yes I agree with Harvey the more the better when it comes to friends to hangout with." She loved to have friends and of course when there was many friends there would be parties to plan. Minerva smiled a bit thinking of planning the first Hufflepuff party... "Well if your sister ever wants to join she is welcome as well." Minerva looked back at Claudia "Do you know what house you want to be in?" While talking to the other girls Minerva moved her hand until it was on top of Harvey's, she saw the look he had given her and she wanted to make sure he knew she noticed.

Claudia was smiling at how Minnie, Harvey and Prudence were trying to tell her that she wouldn't have access to WiFi or Internet service, BUMMER!! when she felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to see, Alyssa. "Hey there, you changed your mind huh? Hey guys, guess who's back." Claudia told the group pushing Alyssa in front of her. "Alyssa, this is Prudence. Prudence, this is my twin that I'm talking about. I think that from her being here, that I'm time here is done. Looks like I'm going back to Salem after all and to my wonderful computers," Claudia grinned and giving everyone a big hug, she said goodbye to all of them.

Alyssa gave Minnie and Harvey a hug and stuck out her hands to shake Prudence. "Hi there Prudence, like Claudia told you, my name is Alyssa. Yep! I'm her other twin. From the conversation you guys were having I'm guessing that she was trying to find out whether there was any internet service up in Hogwarts. I'm not sure whether Dad will be glad that she's going to back to Salem but at least it'll just be one of us instead two of us. I never did tell you guys but one of the other reasons why I was sent to Hogwarts was because I was the other hacker of the infamous FedCom duo. Dad needed to split us up. Shhh....that's a secret," Alyssa told the others with a grin. "Min and Harvey it sure is good to be back."

SPOILER!!: Alec

Alec blinked. Asher was asking him whether he knew Anya. Alec looked between Asher and Anya and back again. Of course he knew Anya! Him and Anya had spent every waking moment together. It's hard to be strangers after all the two of them had gone through.

"Yeah!" he said, chuckling slightly, "We've grown up together, me and Anya." And with this, he squeezed Anya's shoulder. There. But the real question was... "And you met Anya over the summer?" Anya said something like that hadn't she?

Now it was Anya's turn to get Alec's blinkey eyes. Mister Carter went to the same school they're going to? "Carter went to Hogwarts?" he asked, looking up at Anya's older brother. It kind of made sense now. All Alec was told was that Carter had gone to boarding school and was only allowed to come back for the major holidays.

SMACK! Alec let out a chuckle. Trust Anya to hit him for giving her a compliment. If what he said was a compliment that is. "And you have seven years to get used to it," Meaning he had seven years to get used to seeing her in a skirt and heels.

At the sound of the word 'sport', Alec's ears perked up. Asher had said something about flying lessons soo... maybe they'd give lessons about this Quidditch thing as well? "With Firebolts?" At this, he looked at Asher as well. That boy should know shouldn't he? "We should all play one day!" You know... when they weren't flying kites and everything.

Alec let out another chuckle. "Not even magic can separate us now," he said, "It's funny how things worked out." Just yesterday he was sad about Anya going to a different school. And now, they were both getting on the same train to go to the same school.

Alec smiled at Adeline and Anya, glad that they seemed to be getting along. Or close to getting along. Girls have their own secret code for these things and Alec was never going to understand them. So standing there and smiling was his way of overseeing his two girls.

And Adeline was being sweet. See? Her and Anya can get along perfectly!

Oh right. He needed to ask Adeline something. "Adeline, did you manage to get everything you needed?" he asked, remembering that day at the ice cream store when she didn't have enough money for her things.

Alyssa smiled when she heard a familiar voice. Was that Alec? "Alec is that you? We met in Diagon Alley. I heard from Claudia that she met you earlier. I guess she used some fancy magic to repair Adeline's glasses. It's good to see you again," she said giving Alec a hug.

SPOILER!!: Prue

"Oh, Prue, don't worry about it. These guys act mushy all the time." Alyssa grinned at both Minnie and Harvey. "We can hang out together and be the 'girls who don't have boyfriends club' whenever the couples decide to get to lovey dovey for us." Alyssa hooked her arm with Prudence grinning at her.

SPOILER!!: Adeline and Edric

Then Alyssa saw another familiar face. She ran up to him and jumped on his back. "KEEFER!! It's so cool to see you again. I'm back and I heard that you're the new Quidditch Captain huh? Guess I'm going to have to try out and give you some grief." Alyssa grinned as she got of his back.

Rose was looking for Logan, after she promised him that she'd look after him on the train. She had become rather friendly towards the boy, and didn't know why. Yet. She saw him leaning against a wall, looking annoyed with himself, and she frowned. 'You alright?' she asked him, sitting down beside him.

Alyssa couldn't help but eavesdrop on the conversation between the younger girl and the older boy. She sure was taking him for a loop. One thing for sure he definitely had a sense of humor and lots of patience. He seemed very nice too. Not many older students would have the time or patience to entertain a younger girl.

So Alyssa stepped up to him and said,"You have a great way with the little ones. She really played you but you were nice enough to go along with it. My name is Alyssa by the way. Maybe I'll see you in school sometime." She smiled at him and went back to join the group.

Then Alyssa saw another familiar face. She ran up to him and jumped on his back. "KEEFER!! It's so cool to see you again. I'm back and I heard that you're the new Quidditch Captain huh? Guess I'm going to have to try out and give you some grief." Alyssa grinned as she got of his back.

"Well ALyssa it is good to have you back." Minerva smiled "So the innocent Alyssa isn't as innocent as we thought?" Minerva giggled at this.

Rose sighed and looked at him. Maybe she could... Take his mind off of things with her eyes? Hey, it sometimes worked, people could feel happier if they saw reassurement in others' eyes... 'Wassup, what happened?' she asked quietly.

There was no mistaking the nerves Bradley was experiencing, purely by the look on the fourteen year olds face as he stood on the platform ready to board the train. He'd been away from home on many occasions but this was something completely new and he simply felt like he didn't belong here in this new world. There were students, younger than himself that appeared more confident and it made the nerves increase. He didn't know what to expect.

Independent and a little shy, Bradley stood away from the larger crowds, hoping to be able to board the train away from anyone else, there were opportunities to make friends later but for now he wanted to get used to his surroundings. There was a slight chill in the air that made him shudder softly.

His mother and sister had been left on the other side of wall that led him to Platform 9 3/4. Confused but excited for him, the pair had said their slightly emotional goodbyes before leaving to get the tube back home. Brad had insisted that he'd go by himself, but his mum hadn't been so sure and so escorted him to the train station until five minutes previous.

How long would it be until this train left?

SPOILER!!: Skylars

She rose her eyebrow at him amused when he agreed with her. It did not take a genius to infer from his sentence that Kacie was no doubt being over zealous with her preparation for the up and coming term. The girl was sweet and Selina liked her. When Selina was a first year she too was equally as excited to get to school. She must have asked a million and one questions. In fact, she distinctly remembered at the opening feast attacking Simon Bennett with questions about the Quidditch Try Outs. That was before she even knew who Simon Bennett was, before that name even mattered to her.

When Gideon groaned at the nickname that was made infamous by his younger Selina could not help but do an internal victory dance. He had to know deep down that if he stopped reacting to all of her nicknames she would stop calling him the nicknames. Half the fun was just to see his face. Yet, he continued to groan at the nicknames so she would continue to call him them, "Well I am partial to Gertie. Maybe I can just let Kacie take care of the Giddy." Besides she could tell that the nickname was sort of special between the two siblings whether he did not know it or not. So she would not say it. That was Kacie's job.

Selina heard someone clear their throat and she snapped her head to the side to see her father standing their with an interesting look on his face. Gideon said hello to her father and she smiled at him although she was confused as to why her father was there, "Hi Daddy... what are you doing here... right now?"

Jake Skylar watched the boy nearly fall over the carts but catch himself. Well, alright maybe he did have some level of coordination. So he could buy into the whole Quidditch player thing and to be honest that did gain him some brownie points on Jake's end, but not enough to be happy with the fact that he was dating his daughter. If he had his way Selina would never even look at another boy again that way. She had always been so rough and tough so he had forgotten that Selina was still going to do all of the normal "girly" things like date. Although he supposed dating was an everyone type of thing. Eh details.

He slowly drifted his gaze toward his daughter and said shortly, "Your Mum is looking for you..."

At least that was some comfort...each girl sticking to their own choice of nickname to torture him with on their own accord. That way he wouldn't be mixing anyone up, simply groaning at both their efforts. "I kinda figured that...so I guess I'll have to brace myself," he replied, being truthful about his plans. He just hoped he was cut out for being their toy. Speaking of which he wondered what was taking his mother and Kacie so long, but he couldn't dwell on that too much for he had to deal with the man in front of him him.

Okay no real acknowledgement.

Gideon couldn't be sure if that was a bad thing or not coming from the elder Skylar. Maybe he simply needed Selina more then returning the greeting. Or was ignoring him at the moment because of his status of his daughter's boyfriend. He just couldn't let it get to him and bother him because he suspected that was how protective father's of daughters worked and no doubt his father would be like that when Kacie was old enough to date.
Merlin help them all.

So the 5th year let Selina talk and deal with the man while he stood quietly watching both their belongings. His eyes briefly shifting to Jake as he mentioned Selina's mother...a woman he himself had yet to meet.
