Witsy just smiled. "I think the music that's playing is the music that plays from my music box... that's either cool or creepy."

" I think it is sweet that the music is playing from your music box" William told Witsy. " Now, this music will always remind me of you" William said to Witsy. Who gave you your music box?" Willaim asked Witsy.

"My great grandmother. It was quite romantic really. She met my great grandfather at a boating dock to meet for tea and a repo man came to take the boat away because he missed some payments and my grandmother saw the look in his eyes from the thought of it that she thought quickly for a diversion. She stood while the two of them argued and she moved one of the anchors, by wand, (that's when he found out she was a witch) and in awful timing the man slipped pulling her with her into the water and my grandfather jumped after her and pulled her back to the docks. She was so cold and wet he wrapped her up and brought her to the carnival on, specifically, the carousel and gave her the box she gave me. Old letters are still in there from when they were just dating and I read them sometimes hoping to have a relationship like that. After a few months, he lost his boat and after that he proposed to her and as a gift she thought, for his love and devotion, she went out and brought his boat back replacing the other one taken and decorated it herself. They got married on the boat." Witsy thought about the story more staring out into space. It really was wonderful.

"What a romantic story" Wiliam told Witsy." I think your granmother and grandfather must have been real happy people" William said to Witsy." I am sorry that the way we met is not very romantic at all" Willaim explained to Witsy." My parents met at HogWarts" Willaim smiled.

"Yupp, you're a giant," Alice laughed. Emma was a lot taller than her 4 feet 10 inches. But she was a first year. A miniature first year. "Teasing tall people is fun." Alice looked off in thought, still thinking. "But SuperGlue can't be used for teasing. The solovent and its ingredients are very rare. I wouldn't mess around with the stuff, if I were you." Her owl, Domino, recently fell into a tub full of the sticky stuff. It took a few hours of washing and Alice's special solvent to clean him. And she'd still needed to pluck a few feathers... yes, that stuff was dangerous. Like Alice. And that is why she and SuperGlue got along so well.

"They do? I just got here, I haven't eaten anything." Hateya was kind of wishing she was riding something else, but then again, what were the chances she'd ever ride a crabster (or whatever it was) in real life? If she was super-good at Care of Magical Creatures, she might get to pet a real unicorn.

"I kind of wanted to go on more rides before I ate. Last summer we went to a Muggle theme park and my sister ate a bunch of food before we went on a roller coaster? It was gross."

"Well it's in one of the stores, like, the candy store. Pretty neato." Tori nodded and listened to this girl's story about.... her sister throwing up. Wow. Were all of her stories about gross things? Like really?

Um. "Yeahhhhh the only food I tried was an exploding lemonade. Let me tell you. It was EXPLOSIVE." And delicious.

"It sounds like it would be." Since, you know, it was called exploding lemonade. If anything could be said about Wizarding candies and sweets, it was that they were exactly what their name implied.

"You want to do some other rides and stuff?"

Tori did laugh at that. Obviously, an exploding lemonade would explode. Heh. It looks like this Hateya wasn't so badya after all.

"Sure!" The carousel was slowing down now and once it came to a full stop, she gracefully slid off Charlie's back. But she wasn't leaving without giving the unicorn one last hug around the neck. He even nuzzled her back. AWW PRETTY UNICORN PRETTY.

It looked like the Princess had made a friend. "We can go anywhere except the bouncy castle, cuz I've already been there. And there are some WEIRD people inside." Like freaks with cotton candy hair.

"Same for me. I just wanted to try this, before I turn nineteen next month." UGH. the age. Soon, that age was that little thing she didn't want to talk about, but it was impossible. Although good things were coming out of that: Drew and her were going to be living together soon, and things about her soccer player career were...getting clearer than before now that she was a proclaimed adult. And their parents, they were fine witht that, because they were able to live by themselves and thought they were ready to live together.

Back to real life...."I simply will keep my word on it." She told him, giving him an assuring grin and a wrinkle of her nose.

Emma's mouth fell wide open. She was a giant? What? When had this happened? Yes, Emma Malfoy was tall but she was only five foot seven. That wasn't too tall, right? Her boyfriend was six foot one.. The blonde smirked and folded her arms slightly. "Maybe I am. Or maybe you guys are tiny," replied Emma with a wide smile. And then the conversation moved on back to Sebastian. Phew. "It is. Especially guys called Sebastian," chuckled Emma as she shook her head slightly. SHE WOULD GET HER PIGGYBACK FROM SEB! He wasn't able to resist the Crazytastic Besties and they're petty-ness.

Oh.. Not using SuperGlue.. Aww. That's no fun. "Why not? It would make it all the fun! And it would make it tougher to use," she exclaimed and then winked at little Alice and then at Selena. The blonde gripped onto her dragon and steadied herself because she felt like she would fall of. "So after this ride, do you guys want to go get some candy at Honeydukes or something?"

Wow! Nika had come on her own? One more year and Ari could do that too. Hopefully. 'Oh, I see.' Ari had forgotten that Nika's parents were Muggles. 'It's better for her too, I don't think she enjoys the wizarding world too much, I reckon it's overwhelming for someone non-magical.' Grown-up sounded so good, Ari wished it wouldn't be long till she could say the same about herself.

When you had both of your parents, they could afford the luxury of being over-protective while the other one is the opposite, but for Ari...'My mum is all I have, and I'm all she has, so I guess in a way we're protective of one another. She did come with me on Diagon Alley, but she's doing her business and I' mine, with the only condition we meet back at the Leaky Cauldron.' the girl explained, wondering what it was like to have an over-protective dad. Or just a dad, for that matter.

'Yes, I have! I was wondering what face painting was like, do you happen to know?' Ari asked for her friend's expertise as an older student. 'Yes, I'm delighted to be a second year, no longer the youngest in the school!' Because not many people took first years seriously...

Caroline was a bit surprised when the litttle girl grabbed her hand as they moved up in line. She was so excited. It had been years since she'd rode one of these. And the best part about it was that instread of those boring muggle type animals, they were magical creatures.

Oh she the girl's mother was that far away. Good. She smiled and waved back to the girls mum. So now she wouldn't look she was trying to kidnap the kid. Which if she could she would have totally put her in her pocket and walked the other way. She was the aborable.

O______O

What? Her name is Caroline? No way. A grin went across her face. "I'm Caroline. My name is Caroline, too!" Now if the girl wanted to find a unicorn to ride, then it would be totally cool, the girl was exactly like her when she was younger. "What animal do you want to ride?" She asked looking at all of the creatures this ride had to offer.

Laurie loved the carnival and she knew her twin sister Harvest loved it too, and it was here, at the enchanted carousel that they decided to meet up. Laurie and Harvest decided they need a break from thier school shopping to have some carnival fun before the start of term. The both of them always loved the carousel, and had ridden every animal. Laurie liked the dragon and the thestral, but today she was going to ride the unicorn. She watched the ride come to life, as she waited for her sister. "oh, where is she!" she thouht. Laurie wasnt a very patient person, especially when she was excited!

" You look concerned" Willaim told the girl. "Are you loooking or waiting for someone to show up here?" Willaim asked the girl. " My name is William Montcenaggioaka William Starr.

"Come on nineteen isn't old Annie." Drew said to her once again. It seemed like he had been telling her that a lot lately. Drew was older than her so if she thought nineteen was oold she must think he was really old. "And I mean its a good age too so I don't think you should freak out about it so much. At least that's my thought." But then again what did he know???

"Goooood." Andrew said with a smile. "Why did you just wrinkle your nose." It was actually kind of cute...

She frowned. "It's not for you. But around us, I see like...people growing up, already starting a family, doing so many things, and I...am in college, that being a second option if soccer doesn't work out. " That was depressive. But she tried not to think about it often, because she knew it'd upset Drew. "But...okay. I promise..." Again. She was good keeping those promises, though.

She shrugged. "Automatic impulse, I think. Or maybe a signature to assure you that things are gonna be fine?" She wasn't sure, but at least things were good between them. They were on the same page, almost all the time.

Alice gave Emma a 'look'. "I am not SHORT. I am YOUNG. And what's your excuse?" she said firmly. Emma was 15 and giant. Her head would a foot away from the ceiling of her Gram and Gramp's cottage. Alice vowed to never become that tall, because if she did, people would see her. And that's no help in sneakiness. "Sebastian is tall. I don't like him either," Alice decided. Tall people other than Emma were icky. Especially that too-friendly boy, Jordan, she'd met at the Cafe. He was bigger than Emma, and that hadn't gone well. Poor guy had practically run away from her in terror.

"No." Alice was completely against Emma's idea of SuperGlue use. "SuperGlue isn't for teasing. That stuff is dangerous. My owl almost drowned in it." She didn't understand why Emma was set on destroying this TallickyPerson. He was her friend, but she wanted to SuperGlue him to his seat?!?! Fifth years were so confusing. But just as she was drawing her thoughts to an end, Emma said... HONEYDUKES?!?! Alice gripped the wings of the silvery dragon, steadying herself, for she had jumped with excitement and had almost fallen. That wouldn't have been very good on a moving carousel. But, nevertheess, alice smiled. "YESSSSIWANTCANDYYYY!!!!" she exclaimed as soon as she had righted herself. She grinned at Selena, remembering how Emma had told her that Sel liked sweets. " I'll split a Cockroach Cluster with you," she said, laughing. Alice had actually heard rumors that those didn't taste half bad.

People starting families. Yeaaaah that was true. But Drew wasn't sure if he was ready for that. He wasn't even sure if he was ready to marry Annie let alone be a father... It was kind of scary but it seemed liked Annie wanted to as well...."Are you upset that we aren't married? That we both are in college and aren't starting a family?" He was now curious.

Drew shrugged to her answer. "Maybe all I know is it was pretty cute Robles." He said with a smile. He was just telling her the truth after all.

Sigh. That question made her gulp, even made her stomach feel a bit odd. "I'm not. I know it's not the time...now. We are great, always on the same page, but..." The pressure. Geez, that was always difficult to handle, mostly when things were so tight between them; time to spend with each other, and the fact that they were struggling at times to keep everything as normal as possible, although some circumstances. "Everything is fine. Our time is just perfect. I'm sorry I brought this up." She apologised.

She smiled wide. "Thanks..." That came in a soft whisper.

Drew wasn't totally convinced with her answer. "Yeah but you don't ever wish we were?" He questioned. He just wanted to know the truth. No he wasn't going to be upset with her. It only seemed right for Annie to be thinking about this. They had been together for a pretty long time now. So it was normal. Mostly when most of her friends were getting married. "There's no reason to be sorry. I'm kind of glad you did." Andrew said honestly with a shrug.

"You are more thank welcome." He answered just a quietly.

Emma smirked as Alice asked what her excuse was. "My excuse? I can't help it if I'm tall. The Malfoys have always been tall lot of people," said Emma as the Muggle saying of 'Don't be hating' crossed her mind and she smirked more. Oh Merlin. The blonde shook her head at Alice's statement about Sebastian. "Don't like Sebastian?! You haven't met him," teased Emma, with a wide smile. And then she wondered why she was sticking up for TallPerson. Ugh. "Never mind. I see your reason for not liking him," she added, recovering with a wide smile.

The blonde frowned as Alice told her that her own owl had almost drowned in SuperGlue. Merlin, that was... depressing. "I'm sorry, Alice. I'm glad your owl didn't drown," she said, giving her friend a small smile, though she felt bad about the whole thing. But luckily the conversation sped back up to Honeydukes. Phew.. "Awesome! So do I!" exclaimed Emma as she beamed a smile at her two friends. Pausing a bit, a thought crossed her mind. "Hey, ummm, Alice. When's your birthday?"

Annie nodded and let out a silent laugh. "Not so long ago, I became convinced that you will be the one." Maybe the only one she ever really loved. "So, my answer is yes. I wish...but I can wait." She told him, biting her lip. The music around them, thankfully didn't make this discussion so public, although her face expressions, as well as his...were so clear.

"Let's go. We've been on this for more than five laps. I am dizzy." She joked, motioning him to get off the ride.

Nika nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I think this way it works out for everyone. My mom just didn't feel right last time she came here. Especially in first year when I was getting my wand! She had to stand in the corner and watch as things shot out from the shelves." Although the look on her face, priceless. "I think she's terrified of magic really, but the nice thing is that when she's around me she pretends like she thinks it's really cool." Nika was just grateful that her mom didn't hate her for having powers like her sister hates her. Her mom tried to be supportive and act proud, but truthfully she was only hoping not to get on Nika's bad side or anything. A little 13 year old with a wand and magical abilities. The thought was terrifying. Little kids are unstable with their emotions, imagine what she'd do.

Nika raised an eyebrow when Ari began explaining her life a bit. The odd thing was that Nika didn't know too much about it. So when Ari spoke about only having her mom Nika began to listen very carefully. "Well you guys must have a really good relationship," She mused. Nika was close to her mom too, but the barrier of magic and going to Hogwarts had caused them to drift apart, her sister just completely turned on her being overtaken by envy, and Nika's dad had never really been the "family type" anyways. He was always working, but managed to save time for yelling and making rules. Oh how Nika hates rules. "It must be pretty cool having your mother be a witch too. Does she teach you things?" Maybe that's how Ari got so smart.

"Face painting?" She repeated and then opened her eyes right away. "Well it looked pretty cool, but when I went the line was long." Lines are boring. Nika wants action. Why don't carnivals have roller coasters? That would be perfect. "Well your definitely going to love second year!" She said nodding. Second year was the time to really truly get to know yourself. Nika had sort of just been keeping herself together in first year because she was so unsure about how everything was going to be like. But second year she was able to go crazy and show all her energy.

Selena had been in her own little world, you couldn't blame her for falling asleep on a carousel with pretty music. What was important was that if divination was real, her dreams of her taking over the world was bound to happen soon. She shook her head only to hear the firstie offer to split a Cockroach cluster with her. Sel wrinkled her nose. "I'll pass, if you buy chocolate, you can share that instead," Selena said with a smirk.

Selena then turned to look at Emma, clutching onto her awesome dragon, tightly in case she fell. "Who's Sebastian?" she asked, pushing her hat out of her face and still smiling. Oooh... pretty music... sleepy. Selena shook her head again, just to stay awake. "Emma Astoria Malfoy, I give you permission to pinch me, should I fall asleep again," Selena said, pinching herself. Just to stay awake.

She was going to blame the carousel and its pretty music. It was definitely normal to blame inanimate objects... but... technically the carousel was moving, so it was animated... therefore she wasn't blaming an inanimate object and she was not insane. It made more sense before she thought about it... hmm...
