Chapter 19: The Train Ride (Chugga chugga chugga choo choo!)

The next three days rushed by relatively fast, this was odd because school usually drags on for so long that it’s actually painfull. I had finished packing and I was ready, just nervous. The day we were leaving was the day before break. That meant we got to miss a day of school. I was cool with that. Ginny had never brought up our conversation again that night, so I just dropped it. I woke up at the same time as all of my friends. I got up and did my usual morning routine. I got dressed in a girly colorful dress with leggings underneath. I put on a gray cardigan too.

“Ginny can you do my hair?” I ask her.

“Sure how would you like it?” she asks.

“Fix it the pretty way,” I say. The pretty way was a “style” we “invented”. I had my curler ready and Ginny start curling. She curled the back and the sides but left my bangs straight. She brushed my bangs to one side quickly combed through my curls. I did my makeup and then I was ready. Ginny, Luna, and Hermione all left for breakfast. I grabbed my bag and Aria’s cage. I went down to the Slytherin common room. It was empty. Everyone was at the Great Hall eating. I found Draco sitting and waiting for me.

“Good morning Jelly!” I say brightly. I walk over to him and sit down on the wooden bench.

“Good morning Kitten,” he says cheerfully. He looks me over with his stormy grey eyes.

“You look great,” he says.

“Thanks and you do too,” I say as I grab my bags.

“So how are we catching the train?” I ask him.

“Professor Snape is going to lead us out and we’ll walk to the train station,” he answers.

“Is it Kings Cross?”

“No it’s a train that only wizards know exists.”

“Okay,” I nod my head and we sit there for a few minutes.

“Are we supposed go find him?” I ask.

“Maybe,” Drake answers. We get up and walk further into the dungeons and go straight to the Potions classroom. Jelly knocks on the door.

“Enter," Snape commands. Draco pushes open the door and I follow in after him.

“Oh hello Draco,” Snape says eyeing Draco. I scurry behind him and keep an eye on Snape.

“And hello to you Ms. Rain,” Snape says to me. I smile at him.

“I’ll only be a minute children, just finishing up some papers,” Snape tells us. We take that as a cue to leave and we wait outside. Snape comes out the classroom and walks out of the castle. I could feel my nerves and they were going crazy. I remember saying goodbye to all my friends last night. We get outside the castle and beyond the forest.

“Goodbye children,” Snape says as he turns and goes back the way we had came (come?). I frown.

“Don’t be scared Kitten, they’ll love you,” Jelly says squeezing my hand.

“You can’t know that,” I mumble.

“Come on where’s that confident girl I’m in love with?” Drake asks as we start to walk.

“I think we may have left her back at Hogwarts.”

“Kitty everything will be fine. Okay? Just relax,” Draco advises me. I roll m eyes and decide not to argue further. We do find the train station after about ten minutes of walking. I glance down at my watch every ten seconds. I see a bench so we sit and wait for the train. There were other people waiting and I assumed they were all wizards. I clutched the handle on Aria’s cage. Draco keeps on telling me not to worry, which only made me worry even more. I heard the loud roar of the train approaching.

“This is ours’ Kitten,” Draco says. He grabs my bag and his and gently pushes me towards the train. I slowly walk through the doorway to the train. Draco hands the driver our tickets and pushes in front of me. He finds us a small compartment and puts our bags on the shelf above us. I sit down and he sits next to me. I pull my letters out of my small carryon bag. Deena, Shay, and Lace had all written me back. I read Lacy’s letter over because her letters were always the funniest.

Dear Sista!

Oh Kay I miss you so much! I can’t believe you’re not coming home. Oh well I guess this is big for you. You better impress you bow’s parents! Christmas break you’re bringing home that boy! I want to meet him. Actually I want to come up to your school. British guys are hot and I would have some new blood to suck on. Oh maybe I shouldn’t have said that. Oh well you won’t tell. So guess what? Shay think I’m out of control and dangerous. She and mom had a big fight over me. Shay said I needed to learn control and that if I didn’t I shouldn’t live with them. Of course Shay didn’t know I heard this but I have vamp hearing so yeah. I felt awful that my sister felt that way about me. Then I realized Shay was only doing it for the kids. She’s afraid I scare the twins! Oh well Mom told her I was staying no matter what and Shay went upstairs. Things have cooled down but no one (but you) knows I heard what they said. What if I am a danger?

From your crazy, beautiful, dangerous cousin

Lacy was crazy and reckless but I wouldn’t go as far to say she was dangerous. I written her back saying she wasn’t a danger and not to worry. I sighed as I shuffled through the letters. Then I stuffed them into my bag and glanced down at my watch.

“Kitten, for the nine thousandth time just relax,” Draco tells me. Finally, I told myself to just be me.

“But what if-“I start to ask but Jelly cuts me off.

“If if they don’t like it they have got to accept you. We’re a team,” He says, rubbing circles n the back of my hand. I grin at him.

“You mean it?” I ask.

“Of course we are a team.” I nod. Kayla and Draco… I liked the sound of that team.
