Sabrina walked onto the platform with a grin on her face.
"C'mon Jake! Or you'll never get to see it for real!" she laughed and happily walked up to the scarlett train.

"So I was actually on the hogwarts express" Jake (Turner-the ex) asked her with an excited grin.
"The one and only." she smiled back at him. "You wann go on it? You can only stay on until it's time to leave though." she added, as if she was talking to a fiveyear-old.

"I know." he chuckled and lifted her up by the waist, with got a giggle out of Sabrina.

"Sab... you know how sorry I am for all I've done..."he said as she walked into a compartment, Jake follwoed close behind.

"I know. But it was your uncle, not you." she said and turned around with her wand in hand. She winked and said an enlargibng spell. The compartmwent widened and she grined.
"Just needed a girl's touch."
She pulled her things from her pocjets, enlarged them, and put them into the luuggage rack above.

"We've still got tiem, let's wait for the others." she said and sat down. Jake sat next to her and pulled out his DS lite.

"You wanna have a rematch while we wait?" he asked.
"you bet!' Sabrina exclaimed and pulled out her own metallic purple Ds lite and she selected the game they were to play; Bleach, the blades of fate...

She began hitting all kinds of buitton combinations as they battled it out in the game, in wireless play.

Chase found his way onto the train like he had so many times before. He was walking down the aisle when his head saw a red head. It was either Cassie or Sabrina. Miu's hair was orange. Opening the compartment, he couldn't see anyone but the red hair but he suspected because of the clothes that it wasn't Cassie, he leaned against the door and watched for a moment as she played on her DS. Only then did he notice Jake. He ignored him. "Hello there. Been a while huh?" He said with a smile.

Twyla groaned as she dragged herself through the HE and walked into a random compartment.She saw 2 of her freidns in the compartment......and Jake.She glared at him evilly and stared at Sabrina strangly.She shook her head slightly and greeted her friends with a hug.She sat down next to Chase and whispered in his ear 'Since when have they been so friendly?".

Alfie had been looking forward to returning to Hogwarts and the ride on the train.It had seamed like it had took forever for school to start.

Wanting to make all the firsties feel at home Alfie always brought food she had found that this was the best way to make firsties feel at home on the train. Allfie loved cooking and watching people eat. She had not found any one that didn't like her home made breads and things.

As Alfie opened the door to a compartment she saw Twyla Sabrina along with 2 others she was not sure if she had met. "Hi, is anyone hungry?" Alfie asked as she started to get food out of her pack.

Sabrina looked up at them and flipped the DS closed with a gentle snapping noise. Jake did the same, only slower, sensing the tenseness in the compartment.

"Um...hi. I'm Jake."
"They know Jake." Sabrina said and gaveChase and Twyla disapporving looks, and looked at a confused Jake.
"You met them when you were being controlled."
ZShe said and suddenly sighed.
"Chase, Twy, come with me..." she grabbed themboth by the wrists and pulled them out of the comaprtment and yelled over her shoulder, "be back in a minute! and nice to see you again Aflie! be back in a sec!" she smiled into the comaprtment and JAke smiled weakly back.

Sabrina shut the compartment door rather loufly and spun around to face the two of them.
"What is wrong with you guys?!" she angrily shouted, after putting a deafening spell around them.

Chase laughed slightly as he was pulled off and shrugged at Jake. It wasn't that he didn't like the guy, well... Eh. But he preferred to greet those whom he knew best first. Blinking when Sabrina asked what was wrong with him, he shrugged. "Wrong with me? All I did was say hello." He said almost laughing a second time. "What's wrong with hello?"

As Alfie heard and felt the emotions in the compartment she start to wish she had not come in.

Sabrina had grabbed the other two and left very quickly, saying she would be back.

"Hi, I'm Alfie and you are?"

Alfie had not been introduced to the boy so she then said, "would you like some Cinnamon raisin bread?"

Hoping to get passed the uneasiness.

Jake watched Sab pull out the two people and shrugged back at Chase, feeling a little resentful for the things he had done in the past.
But nevertheless he tried to shake it off.
Jake smiled at the girl named Alfie and said, "You're the one sabsaid made the delicious raisin bread!" he exclaimed and smiled.

He held out a hand and said, "I'm Jake Turner. I don't kow if you've heard about me. But I'mone of Sab's exes." he said with a lsight bit of uneasiness in his tone. But he shook it off and saidm, "And yes, i would LOve some raisin bread. I'm not ashamed to admit that i like baked goods." he chuckled.
~~
Sabrina looked at Chase and said, "the way you said it seemed a litle sarcastic... just g easy on him ok? he didn't know he was being controlled way back when."

She looked at Twyla and glared at her.
"you should know better Twyla! He was under a spell!" she screamed.

'What???And how was I supposed to know as nobody tells me anything these days.And don't you look at me like that you knew damn well I had no idea what was going on all I knew is a tiny bit about what happened.You didn't look so happy when you told us anyway and then you didn't say anything else about it so don't you have a go at me!'Twyla said furiously.

Chase laughed. "I'm always sarcastic, yet on one of the rare times when I'm not you pull me aside and tell me off for it?" Then, out of nowhere, Twyla started screaming and some first years from other compartments stuck their heads out to see what the racket was about. "Yeah... You two fight, I'll just... Bye." Chase went back into the compartment and smiled at Alfie, whom he almost met. He had been a puppy at the time. "I'm Chase by the way. Guilty of being Leo's puppy!"

While everyone was having a pow wow outside Cassie had made her way into the compartment unseen. She saw Alfie and gave her friend a light hug. "Hey Alfie" she whispered then saw Jake. She went over and hugged him to. "Hey Jake" she greeted him friendly like. She had known him as both evil and nice and liked the kid no matter what. hearing Chase behind her she turned around and walked foward a few steps hugging him. "Hey Chasssey" she greeted him flipping her hair behind her shoulder.

Chase hadn't seen the read-haired Cassie beast (words credited to Miu :P) when he moved in and was a bit surprised when he got a hug. How the hell hadn't he noticed her? That made him angry really. He was usually more... Watchful? Attentive? It didn't matter. Hugging her back he smiled. "Well, it seems like I'm sincerely smiling."

Sabrina sighed and said, "allright fine...just get inside the compartment before one of the fiorst yeasrs calls a prefect on us. and the train's about to leave so I should-"

She heard the train whistle and immediatly cursed ubnder her breath.

"jake! You need to-" she ran into the compartment and her stomach dropped when she saw the scenery passing by.

"crapadappadoo..." she muttered and said, "jake.. I guess you'r e stuck here..."

she looked at CAssie and said, "CASSIE!" and hugged her friend before putting a serious poker face on.

"Anybody want to tell JAke the story? I probabaly missed a few points, wanting to ski over them and avoid crying." she looked to Twyl;a, CAssie, and Chase who had been there that night.

~~

Jake smiled at everyone and them looked a little uneasy as Sabrina asked for someone to tell him the whole story.
"What did my uncle make me do?" he asked in a solemn voice, and looked at them, ridden with guilt.

Alfie had kind of jumped back when Cassie gave her a light hug. Alfie hated hugs cause the emotions of ther person hugging her would come flooding in on her. Then just as quickly Cassie let go and startedhugging some of the other people in the room.

When finally Sabrina came back asnd started to talk about something Alfie knew nothing about alfie felt that she should leave.

"Look maybe Jake would like to keep this between you all, so maybe I should leave."

Alfie then walked to the door and turned to say, "Hope you all enjoy the cinnamon raisin bread over there." Then left the compartment to find another one where she could feed some of the other students.

"Bye Alfie" she called and plopped into the seat. "Do we HAVE to tell the story again...." she said rolling her eyes and attempting to piull Chase into the seat next to her. She really did noy like this story and thought it would dampen tyhe mood of the compartment so she sat up a bit and grinned. "Ok...who did something fun this summer!" she asked hoping someon, mainly Chsse as she nodded through a wink, had someone fun to do this summer or maybe Twyla did.

Chase noted the quick subject change. He wasn't quite in the mood to replay the story either. "I went to Cambodia." He said with a grin. "My father -" His eyes rolled at the mention of the man. "Decided to go to this, convention or something, that the Minister was attending, so we ended up going to Cambodia for a week." Chase was still oddly surprised that his father had taken him. But, he supposed, he couldn't be trusted alone. Traiton would probably think that a certain surfer was going to show up if Chase was alone. Probably true.

Twyla went back in the compartment still a little cross with Sabrina.When she said that one of them should tell Jake she looked startled.'You dont know?"Twyla asked Jake."Well I....well you.....Sabrina......ask someone else"Twyla said crossing her arms."I haven't done much I haven't been in Paris this summer I was here in England trying to find my....doesnt matter what did u do Cass?".

Lindsey raced across the platform, dargging her luggage, and jumped onto the Hogwarts Express only a second before the darn thing pulled away. "Snap," she hissed, "I need to learn to be on time more often.''

She hurried down the hallway and finally edged into a compartment filled with familiar faces. "Hey everyone!" she called, giving her friends each a hug. "Long time, no see." Lindsey suddenly noticed that the atmosphere in the compartment wasn't all that friendly, and recalled hearing Sabrina say something about telling Jake what had happened when he was being controlled by his uncle. Hoping to avoid the topic, she squeezed into a corner by Cass and Twyla, staring at the floor so as not to catch Sabrina's or Jake's eye.

Sabrina saw everybody trying to change the subject abnd Sabrina let it go.
she mouthed, 'i'll tell you later' to jake and he nodded.

"I went to new york and home again. and my dad let me go to tokyo again for a week." she said with a smile.
"I'm not a big fan of suhi though, i must say..." she wrinkled her nose at the thought.

Jake chuckled and said, "I hung out with brini here for the time she spent at home. her parents were glad to have me back. they missed all the times i used to hang out with sab. it felt like grade school again." he smiled, seeing her smile at him now made his heart flutter, so to speak. he blushed suddenly.
