Lily walked into the bustling train station with Draco sighing
resignedly and tucking her hands into her pockets. She looked up when her
dad came in, trying to hide her excitement she looked at him silently.
"Can I see you off, at least?"
Lily relelnted and smiled. "I guess so."
Draco, who had the knack for appearing and disappearing at the exact right time, slid behind a Muggle train, feigning fasination with the cogs. Seamus and Ron, who had the knack of apearring and disappearing at exactly the wrong time, burst into the picture from no where. "Harry! Just the person who can end this argument once and for all, even though I am CLEARLY correct." Seamus spoke first.
Ron. "You are CLEARLY incorrect. I hold fast to MY truth, which is that the Great Race is held BI-Anually in FINLAND."
"Although the truth is that the Race is held every FOUR years, in DENMARK."
"Both of you are wrong. The race is held annually Sweden."
Seamus and Ron looked at each other and shook their heads. "Och! Weasley look! Snape!"
"Choo suppose he's doing here?" Ron whispered excitedly.
"Did Lupin say anything about losing his job? Or anyone else? Why is he at the train station?"
"I don't know." Seamus said, peering over Ron's shoulder. "You don't suppose he's doing death-eater stuff?"
"Hey, where's my kid?"
"Kids."
"What?"
"Kids. You have two of them."
"That's what I said. Where are they?"
"Probably on the train."
"Why?"
"Because it's time for them to get on the train you dolt." Seamus said, smacking him upside the head.
"What'd you do that for?"
"I suppose we should go see them off." Harry said.
"Where are they going?" Seamus asked.
"Oh and I'm a dolt am I?" Ron said. "They're going to school."
"That's what I said."
Harry rolled his eyes.

"Here we are. Back at school. I hate school." Will said, looking up at the castle.
"I know. God, just look at it." Daniel said, shaking his head.
"Oh look there's Derrick." Moira said suddenly, before she could reprimand them for insulting the school.
"Where are you going Lily?" Daniel asked as Moira and Anna ran off after Derrick.
"Straight to the pitch. We want to win the Cup this year."
"Yeah, alright. Well Will and I will come down later maybe."
Lily smiled. "Yeah, that'd be good." She kissed Will quickly on the cheek and looked at Daniel for a minute. He smiled weakly and she turned and left silently.
She wrapped up practise earlier, and left the pitch, slipping into her dormitory before anyone could stop her and talk to her. "Oh grow up Lily." She said to herself. "You are being a baby about this whole thing. About everything." She sighed and punched her pillow. "That didn't really help, but it was close."
"Can I see you off, at least?"
Lily relelnted and smiled. "I guess so."
