He wasn't going to survive in here. The Bonny who had touched him had only gotten closer and was waving her hand in his. Which if she wasn't a Bonny would be really annoying and he'd probably lick it or something. Gross them out and make them go away. So instead he just turned and faced the three of them. Scenery be damned. "Aye, a'm a Scot" He directed to the Eden Bonny. He then turned his attention back to Isla, who had yet to move "...'n' na ye'r saying breeks a' wrong. Ye hae tae sound mair cross a' th' time." Unfortunate but true. "Ah hated Beauxbaton. Mah brothers shuid hae hame schooled me while we wur awa'." He certainly had the cross look on his face now."Yer nae Veella are Ye?" He gave a hard look to the Paloma Bonny which turned quickly into reddened cheeks ... he looked down and away from her.

"I totally agree and they always seem to make you feel good no matter how bad you feel," Samantha said as Tabitha stirred in her sleep. She decided to put the kitten back in her cage as it was safer. Tabitha didn't awake from her slumber as she was placed in her cage.

Abby smiled and nodded and said "Yeah my owl always keeps safe and well i do miss the family dog"

"Aww. What is your dog's name and what breed is it?" Samantha enquired, eager to know more. Even though Samantha and Abby owned different pets, she felt it was good to know about caring for animals.

The Gryffindor walked into the compartment rather reluctantly. Not because he thought there would be a Cold One waiting on the other end of the compartment, but more so because he wasn't sure who he would see in there. Obviously a girl because he could make out that much from where he was standing. But if it was Lux then he definitely would not be sitting there. Ugh. He had enough of her LIES. She just wanted him to stop loving his truest love ever. That was not okay, not for this Gryffindor at least.

So yes, he reluctantly made his way in, but then a small smile made it's way unto his lips when he realized that it wasn't the Hufflepuff, but rather it was one of his ACTUAL friends. Taking his bag off his shoulders and throwing it onto the ground he dragged it all the way over to her. "Uh, hi Cinna," He had talked to her for a bit over the summer and she was nice. Even though she was best friends with that horrible, lying, deceitful, MEANIE FACE Hufflepuff. But Cinna was nice. Unlike her friend.

However, just as he approached the group...... O___________________O

....

LUX.

Well he had already smiled at Cinna and made his way inside, so it'd be weird if he left. Besides, he wasn't mad at the Gryffindor. The Hufflepuff, yes. But Cinna, no. So taking a moment to compose himself, he looked back up at the Gryffindor and the small kid, "Uh, hi Cinna," and through gritted teeth, "Uh, hi... I'm Zander," But wait, there was a third. Nope. She was not getting a hello. Not today. Never ever ever. Only FRIENDS got hellos.

Hearing the compartment door slide open, Lux eagerly looked towards the doorway thinking that it was Bay. Nope. Not Bay. It was Zander.

A Zander who clearly hated her.

She saw the look on his face when he noticed her, and he wasn't even saying hi. He spoke to Cinna and Zeke, but she was ignored. He really DID hate her and all she had done was tell him that Bentley had resigned, which was the TRUTH.

Sniffling at how mean Zander was being, Lux started to cry.

Awwwkkkkkkwaaaarrrrrrrddddd...

Zeke coughed just so he could make some noise and... well, make some noise. Silence was irksome, so yeah. HI PERSON OVER THERE LAYING DOWN AND STUFF. Don't mind that he's here.

When the compartment door was drawn open, he wasn't sure whether to be relieved or mortified. Would the space be invaded with more girls that would make him feel even more awkward and uncomfortable? The answer was yes, and no... but essentially yes.

"Lux!" he exclaimed, remembering the redheads name. He nodded a little, not overly enthused. "It's alright I s'pose, will it be much longer?" he replied, actually kinda pleased he had someone to talk to now. Perhaps though, he ought to have found a compartment with guys, like him, so they could do guy things. Or something. He watched as Lux settled herself where the other girls bag was, figuring they knew each other. Then came the invitation, and he GRINNED.

"Sure, I don't bite either..." much, but he knew he could if he wanted to. Lux didn't need to know that though. Quickly he scooted over so that he LOOKED like he was part of a group of friends and stuff. Like he fit in. Which he didn't really, but it was a nice enough thought. He offered other girly a wave, now that he was closer. Heh. HI.

And then there was ANOTHER person in the compartment, and it was a DUDE this time. He was saved! "Hiya, I'm Zeke," he replied to Zander, making a mental note that he'd called the other one Cinna. It did cross his mind that Zander hadn't greeted Lux, did they not know each other? Should he introduce them? He was about to do so, when he looked between Lux, Cinna and Zander. UUUHHHH. Why was Lux crying? WHY?! WAS THIS A HORMONAL THING? DID SHE HAVE CRAMPS?! DID ZANDER BREAK UP WITH HER?!

...

...

"Can I er, get you something?" he asked Lux, elbowing her gently. GENTLY. This was not an attack by any stretch of the imagination. Nudge nudge. "Do you want me to make him leave?" he asked in an even lower voice.

Abby smiled at Samantha and said "My dog's name's is Rufus and Rufus is a golden retriever"

"Rufus sounds adorable," Samantha said as she rummaged through her pocket and pulled out two chocolate frog packets. She held her hand out and asked Abby, "Would you like one?"

Abby smiled at Samantha and said "Sure i would love one and yes Rufus is adorable i just miss Rufus when i am at school"

"There you are," Samantha said with a smile as she handed over the chocolate. She then proceeded to open her own chocolate. The frog tried to hop away but Sam kept a firm grip on it. It had taken a few years of practice for her to do such a feat. "I wonder what card I've got," she thought as she read the card which turned out to be Morgana.

Samantha took a bite out of her chocolate, swallowed it and then asked, "So who did you get?"

Abby held onto her frog to stop it from escaping and looked at her card and said "I got Albus Dumbledore" DAbby had to hide her collection that was building up and took a bite out of her frog

"Cool! Maybe one day I'll get a Dumbledore card. I have a few duplicates of other witches and wizards. Maybe we can trade if I have cards you need and vice versa, " Samantha said as she finished her frog. She absent-mindedly fiddled with her heart shaped necklace.

Abby smiled at Samantha and said "That sounds pretty good to me, i think i would like that" to Abby it meant that she had somebody to trade cards with

"Okay then. We have a deal," Samantha said as she held out her hand for Abby to shake. Sam was happy that she going to potentially gain some new chocolate frog cards as she was getting rather tired of getting the same ones over and over again.

Tessa made her way through the corridors and into a compartment. She really didn't know what to say about the amount of students on the train. She sat down with a book in her hand, glanced out the window and began to read.

Abby shook Samantha's hand and said "I just hope we have a normal year this year, cause last year was a nightmare"

Samantha nodded with a groan. "I couldn't stand another winter like last year. Thank goodness for spells and hot foods or drinks. They kept me and my body going. However, there were times when I nearly froze to death." She shuddered at the thought.

Luckily for the young girl who decided to enter his compartment while he had been changing in to his uniform, Kevin was already dressed in it and was busy buttoning up the last of the buttons. His Gryffindor robe was still in his school bag as he would put it on later. He raised an eyebrow as he watched the kid sit down and grab a book ....eww...books. There was a reason why Kevin tried to put bugs in the library books other than pure fun... "How rude, you don't even say an hello when entering my compartment?" he tsked. Actually, Kevin would have done the same thing but whatever...it was fun messing with new students.

Tessa's face turned bright red. "I am so sorry. I didn't notice you," she responded with wide eyes. She hadn't even notice the boy when she entered. "I can leave if you want," she offered quietly, truthfully she was tired and really didn't want to move, but if the man wanted her to leave, she would. Her blush still hadn't resided and she felt more and more embarrassed as the time went on, before she just looked at the ground, waiting for his response.

Abby nodded and said "Yeah it was horrible i had to fight to get close to the fire in the common room and i hated being stuck indoors i am more of an outdoor sort of person"

A small smirk came across his face when he saw that the kids face turned a bright red color. This was going to be interesting hehe. He simply shook his head no when she said that she could leave if he wanted her to and shifted his body so that he could rest one arm on the back of the train couch. "You didn't notice me huh? Ok i'll let you off the hook this time since you are clearly a new student so you don't really know how things go around here but for the record" he paused for a moment as he narrowed his eyes at her. "I'm the king of the school so when you see me next time you better show me respect...got it?" It was funny how he was talking about respect when Kevin didn't even respected the professors wasn't it? "What's your name kid?" not that he was going to remember or cared about it...but he promised his mother to at least make SOME effort in getting to know others...ugh.

Cinna settled into the compartment. She was even thinking about doing some sketches on the way. Just to past the time away. She didn't do a lot of drawing over the summer. Maybe now would be a good time to catch up on them. She had been brainstorming some ideas on her next sketches.

She was alone, that never really bothered her until this summer. For some reason she discovered that being alone sucked. One year out of being homeschooled can seriously change ones view on things. Lots of things. She was about to dig into her bag and get her sketching stuff out. When she heard the door slide open her brown eyes stared at the door. Who was it! Who was that?

"Hi..." The boy had to be a first year she was sure of it. "I'm Cinnamon... Let me get my bag out of your way." She gave he a friendly smile. She was about to grab the bag so the boy could sit down. When the door slid open again. Lux! It was Lux. Well thanks, Lux just move the bag for me. Thanks. She was totally working on that.

Giving Lux and beamy face she answered her. "I'm great." She grinned. Everything was perfect for once in a long time. "Bay? No. I haven't seen him at all." The door slid open again. Who now? She was starting to miss being alone on the compartment a bit now.

It was Zander! She smiled and jumped up out of her seat. "Hey, Zander!" She hugged the Gryffindor boy. It was so nice to see him. He introduced hisself to Zeke. Why wasn't he saying hey or anything to Lux. She looked back and fourth from the Hufflepuff to the Gryffindor for a few seconds. WHAT??? She realized that she still had her arms around Zander she let go of him. Awkward.

But not as awkward as this. Lux had started crying. Nooo nooo nooo Cinna could not deal with crying. Not Lux crying. If Lux cried, she was going to cry. And Cinna didn't do crying. Well.... she doesn't like crying less... yeah well that. Which that she cried over for like a millisecond or a week or was it a month. She couldn't remember. Anyway the the heck. "What's going on with you two?" She asked eyeing both of them.

Angel decided to find an empty compartment, she wanted to travel up-to Hogwarts on her own, she had seen Benny, AJ and Adi getting into the front of the train but she had to think about what had happened between her and Ben, she liked him a lot but was the kiss he had given her other the summer just like a brother would give a sister a kiss or did he have feelings for her, these thought were racing through her head.

Eden didn't know what was going on here. The Isla girl seemed bold, outgoing, snarky...in a good fun kind of way. Paloma was nice, sweet...and the boy. Ceorlic? Whatever. He was...well. She could honestly say she had never met anyone quite like him.

The brunette was confused when Isla said she was from Australia...what? But she sounded like she had a head col----OH. She was joking. RIIIIIGHT. Eden knew about jokes. Har-har-har. Pencil-vania. She wondered if there were lots of pencils there. The states in the...'States' were very unfamiliar to Eden, so she wondered if she should voice this opinion aloud or..naaahh. She wouldn't. She didn't want to sound STUPID. "That's...cool. I hail from Wexford--Ireland--" she said, grinning toothily, making sure her accent was thick with that sentence, but now back to speaking as normally as she could.

"Are you sure you don't bite?" She asked Isla, trying to be all serious--but then she broke out into a smile and relaxed a little. See, being friendly wasn't that hard. She wasn't doing super POORLY right now, dude!

She could tell Paloma was trying not to laugh, and she couldn't help but feel her giggling coming up her throat--it was always harder to control laughter when someone else was having trouble controlling laughter. YIKES. Eden managed to keep it all in, though, and just let her eyes flicker towards Ceo and then back to Paloma. "Yeah but....not everyone is smart in the same way. " She said softly, tucking some of her hair behind her ear. Paloma was from Spain? Whoah...that was really cool. "I've always wanted to visit Spain...heard it was beautiful..." She commented. One day, maybe she'd make it there.

Right.

What was Ceorlic saying, now? Eden squinted her eyes at him and just had to strain her ears to understand it. WHAT? "Oh. you're from Beauxbatons, too? Why didn't you like it? I've heard it's lovely..." she said, and she glanced at Paloma, as if to seek some sort of counter to Ceo's argument. "I've always thought Beaux's were snobby..but tha's just me." She said with a shrug and leaned back in her seat. Durmies typically didn't care for Beaux's. But Eden wouldn't judge anyone...before getting to know them, heh.

She had a strange urge to reach out and touch Ceorlic. Just for the laughs, but she thought maaaaaybe she'd feel bad about it afterwards. Though...the smirk on her face...said otherwise...
