The next day, everyone was in the Great hall as Dumbledore was announced for the End-Of-Term speech. "Another year at Hogwarts has come to an end! I hoped you all have learned much this year because I certainly feel like I have learned from you. But enough of my blathering. There is a feast to enjoy, and a House cup to award…"
Everyone listens as he announces the standings of each house.
"In fourth place, Hufflepuff, with 654 points…"
"In third, Gryffindor, with 678…"
"In second, Slytherin has 685…"
"And with 805 points, Ravenclaw!
"Congratulations, Ravenclaw! This year's winners of the House Cup!"
Lucien sees Dumbledore was smiling at the Ravenclaws before raising a cup.
"We did it, Lucien! We won the House Cup!" Rowan said excitedly.
"Now, please enjoy your feast, and enjoy your summer holidays!" Dumbledore said before heading back to his seat.
As everyone was eating in the feast. He notices Merula was sitting at the Slytherin table which he sighs in relief as he was glad that she had recovered from the ice room. He did not get the chance to ask her how she was feeling nor did he get the chance to talk to her at all. But then again she might just scream at him even if he tried, or even threaten him.
She noticed he was staring at him before she looked down at the table as he could barely see some sadness in her eyes. He felt helpless seeing her like that but what can he do at this moment? At least maybe he could try at least helping her in a different time when it is not at the end of the school term. Letting out another sigh he was happy that she was alright as he continues to enjoy the feast.
After the next day in the morning, Lucien started to pack his things. He looks around his dormitory one last time before grabbing his things and heads out the castle to the train.
"It was time to go back home…" He muttered to himself as he placed his things into the train before getting on.
Back to the empty, lonely home…
But then he had a thought in his head. He does have friendly neighbors he can talk to and he can write to Rowan over the summer so it can't be all that bad right? Lucien sits in one of the train rooms as he heads off back to London. "I better start thinking what I should do for the summer," he said before a smile came across his face. "Because I will find you Jacob…"
END.
And that's it for the first book. I do plan on making more just because I love writing. I do plan on moving this series to AO3 soon since I don't like making book covers and there really isn't that much Hogwarts Mystery fanfictions anywhere.
