Riddled:

Evelyn stepped onto the Hogwarts Express and walked down the narrow hallways to find her friends. She suddenly found herself yanked into a compartment and smiled. Avery, Les, Queenie, and Tom were all in there.

"Hi everyone!" Evelyn said. She gave everyone a quick hug and turned to see Tom standing in front of her.

"Evelyn." He said.

"Hello Tom." Evelyn said smiling. Tom brought her into a hug that lasted for a couple of seconds. They pulled apart and sat down next to each other. A new year, a fresh start to try and keep Tom on the good side. She felt someone staring at her but brushed it aside.

"So Avery, how long were you in Witch Style after I left?" Evelyn asked with a smirk. Avery groaned and sunk low into his seat.

"At least an hour longer! Avery! Lavender or jade! Crimson or maroon! Avery this Avery that! Ughhh!" He mocked. We all laughed.

"It's not funny!" He said throwing his arms in the air.

"Oh it's definitely funny." Les said in his monotonous voice. We all laughed again.

"I missed you guys!" Evelyn said.

"I didn't." Queenie said looking out the window. We all looked at her,

"Oh all right! I missed you guys too." She gave in.

"What did everyone do this summer?" Evelyn asked.

"My parents took me to Rome for three weeks." Les said.

"I've always wanted to go there! I studied Dragons in Romania. I've been interested lately." Queenie said.

"Dragons?" Evelyn exclaimed.

"Yeah! Although the Hungarian Horntail is pretty nasty." She said. Evelyn didn't know how anyone would want to get near a dragon.

"I went to Paris with the Mont- my parents." Evelyn said.

"Fun! I stayed at home with my parents." Avery said. Tom didn't say anything.

"Did you do anything this summer Tom?" Queenie asked. Tom thought for a moment, as deciding if he wanted to say something.

"Well, I discovered a cave of sorts with some....friends...." Tom said. We all nodded.

Evelyn leaned back into the seat, this is it. Another chance to save her friend. She glanced at Tom and her stomach fluttered. Stop it! You can't fall for him! Why?

Why am I falling for him?
