Ervin closed the distance between him and Quinn, placing his ugly lips onto Quinn's. She was taken by surprise for a moment, and then reacted, kicking her knee up into his groin, causing him to fall down and clutch it while moaning and squealing. "What the bloody hell?" Quinn exclaimed, and Ervin looked up at her. "What is wrong with you?! Didn't I just say that you were worse than freaking Frollo? That is not a punchline, Jones."

"I, I-I. I thought m-maybe." he hissed, "Maybe if I k-kissed you-"

"I what? That's ridiculous! Why would you even do that? Are you bloody serious?" she exclaimed, and she rubbed her temples. "Now I'm certainly not jumping into the lake naked. Jesus Christ.. Bloody-"

"Go easy on the swearing Quinn." Said Albus, and she looked at him.

She scoffed. "Albus, I can swear as much as I can, he nearly stuck his tongue in my mouth." She said. "God, Ervin, you're insane."

"It was a bet, okay?" Ervin said. Everyone looked at him. "It was a bet. Derek said that if I snogged you he'd pay me fifty Galleons and I was like 'Sure, why not.'" he said. Quinn rolled her eyes.

"Just get the hell away before I actually go all Muggle on you." she said, and Ervin got up and ran off.

It was quiet for a moment. "Well. At least we don't have to jump into the lake naked anymore." Tyler said, before eyeing the snacks on the large table. "Actually, I'm still hungry. See you guys in a bit." he said, before stalking off. Albus shrugged, and then Felicia spoke.

"Al, I know I said I'd go to your place this holiday, but I can't." she said, and Albus raised a brow. "Yes. My mum wants to move to France, so I'll go to Beauxbatons next year. I asked if I could stay but she said no. This will be the last time I see you, as my mum will get me in a bit." she said, and Albus' eyes widened.

"Really? Oh, well. I-erm. I guess this will be goodbye then, right?" Albus said, and she nodded, tears running down her cheeks. "No, don't cry, I'll cry." Albus said, before embracing her. Then he cupped her face and kissed her just one more time. When they broke off Albus spoke again. "Well, I suppose we won't be together if we won't see each other anymore. We can maybe keep in touch through owl? You know where I'll be this summer, right?" Felicia nodded, and hugged him. She also hugged the others and said them goodbyes

"Well then, Au revoir." she said, her voice shaky. Albus bit his lip, trying not to cry too hard. Boys do cry, even when they're seventeen. Felicia walked off, towards the large entrance gate where a tall woman stood, probably her mother.

Albus sat in the Boys dorm near the window, staring outside when an owl entered. It was bearing a red envelope, and Albus recognized it. A Howler. He opened it quickly, knowing the consequences if he didn't.

"Hey Albus. I hope you're okay and aren't missing me too much. I'm travelling to France right now, but I have sent this letter so I can say one last goodbye. You were an amazing friend and boyfriend for a year, and I will miss you. Don't let yourself get beaten up by Ervin, and well, if you ever go to France you can come visit me. Au Revoir, Je t'aime." The Howler spoke, in a clear Felicia voice. Albus smiled. He'd send her a letter once he knew where she was, as owls don't have some cool navigation that guides you to the person.

He decided he should sleep before getting the train back to London, and it was a wise move, as he fell asleep quickly, disregarding the hot weather.

Albus stood ready to go next to the train, hugging Hagrid, before he entered the train and sat down in an empty compartment, followed by Scorpius, Rose, Quinn and Tyler. "So, Scorpius and Rose... Are you going to tell Uncle Ron about your relationship or are you just friends?"

"Friends." said Rose, and Scorpius nodded. "You and I both know he'd kill Scorpius. And me. And possibly everyone else as well." A bit later the train started moving and it sped off.

Halfway through they were eating sweets from the Candy Trolley and enjoying many sweets and discussing the coming holidays. "Wait, Tyler, Amsterdam? That's so cool!" Scorpius exclaimed. "You can check out Dutch Wizarding cafe's. Does your dad know some?" Tyler nodded.

"Yeah he said he was there with his team once and the Dutch people were very competitive and a little over-enthousiastic and angry. They're kind of creepy, Dutch people are. What about you, are you going somewhere special?"

"Mum wants to go to Iceland, but dad really wants to visit Wisconsin for the Wisconsin Quidditch team." said Scorpius, as he took another bite of the Chocolate Frog.

Quinn took a box of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, and smirked to Albus. "In for a bet, Al?" she said, and Albus nodded.

"What's the deal? And no naked swimming please." He said, and she shook her head laughing.

"No, there won't be any naked swimming, I promise." she said, as she fake spit over her right shoulder. "No I thought that the person that can handle the most beans wins, and then the one that loses has to..."

"The loser has to find the Trolley lady and buy the other sweets of their choice." Albus said, and Quinn nodded.

"Seems fair, yeah." she said, and then she tipped the box over and took out some flavors. She handed Albus a couple before taking some herself as well. They counted to three, and started popping them in their mouth.

Albus got: Chocolate, hairspray, dust, garlic, pea soup, blood, hair that got stuck in the shower pit, car tire, ash, sweat and keyboard. Quinn got: stinky cheese, old glove, toilet seat and dead fly. Both were gagging over bowls when they finished, and Albus chuckled.

"Well, Quinn," he gagged, "I lost my appetite," gag, "especially with the hair one," another gag. Quinn laughed as well.

They arrived at Platform 9 3/4 and the five exited the train, immediately facing the large group of family. Most of it was complete, but Lily and Lorcan were still missing, as were James and Annabeth. As for the adults, Neville, Hermione and Luna came to get the group. They left the platform, a lot easier than when Harry would've been around, and they walked to the ever-so-famous Weasley bus. Hermione decided to sit in the back to listen to all the stories.

"So, Rose, what have you been up to?" she asked, and Rose spoke.

"Well. We-um, we got involved in some stuff, but I suppose Uncle Harry told you, right Mum?" she said. and clearly to Rose's relief Hermione nodded.

"But apart from all that stuff. Some other stuff, I don't know, boys or something?" she asked, and Rose turned a bright red. "There is something with boys? Well dear, tell me!" said Hermione. "Do you want me to guess?" she said, but Rose didn't answer. "It's Scorpius, isn't it. That's why he's here, not because he's friends with you again, but also because he's your boyfriend now, isn't it?" Rose beamed at her mother.

"How did you know? I never-"

"She's brilliant, Rose, accept it." Interrupted Albus, and Hermione smiled.

She then turned back to Rose. "Don't worry, love, I won't tell your father." she said, as Rose muttered a sheer 'thanks'. "How about you, Albus, where's Felicia? I thought she'd come too, right?"

Albus shook his head. "She's moving to France." He said, and Hermione nodded slowly.

"Oh, that's rotten luck. Well, I suppose you can visit her sometime. I'm going to talk to Hugo, bye dears." she said, before moving to where Hugo and Louis were sitting.

It wasn't long until they arrived at the Burrow, and all the adults and Grandpa and Grandma Weasley were there too. As usual, it was rather busy all over, as people usually brought friends, also, the family was rather large. Then, Teddy came out of the large house, and people crowded around him. He shook his head, indicating that Remus was asleep. After everyone had greeted their parents the whole group went inside for dinner, as grandma Weasley had made it ready for when they arrived. Albus sat down next to Quinn and Tyler, and they started on their dinner. Just then, Ron came in, who had been at work for some extra hours, and he locked eyes with Scorpius.

"What the bloody hell is he doing here?" He exclaimed, and Hermione got up.

"He's Rose's friend." she said, and Ron sat down, still eyeing him, before starting to whisper things to Hermione.

A bit later Albus found himself back in his own room, sharing it with Tyler and Scorpius, for Ron didn't allow Rose and Scorpius in one room. Albus was glad the holidays had started again, but also a little bit afraid of what would come when they'd go and catch the new Dark Lord.

Hey! So, I updated once more and now I'm in a dilemma because I need some ideas for the holidays before they return to their whole adventure. Do you have an idea? Of some kind? That'd help me a lot. Also, I noticed I'm nearing 2K which is AMAZING! So, I'd like to do a little bit of a special again, so....

Give me ideas!

Love,

Florence
