Thinking

[Kate Johnson]

Kate absentmindedly left the common room and walked down the steps. Her mind was filled with many things at the moment but none of which she could explain. Finding herself down in the kitchens she pulled out her wand, "Accio." She said quietly towards the mug sitting on a counter amongst others. It was clean so she went over and filled it up with some coffee. Sitting down on a bench she suddenly felt really lonely. Despite the fact that she was in a school with over 2000 people, it still felt lonely. James was at home at the moment, probably playing chess against mum or dad. Feeling a homesickness surge, she put her mug down and placed her head in her hands. A terrible headache was coming and her head felt as if someone was hammering it in. Running a smooth hand through the blondness, she tried to think of the Christmas holidays when she could see her family again.
Pulling her thick, red hoodie around her tighter she sipped a little more of the steaming coffee and let her thoughts run away like the escaping steam.
Checking her watch, she realised that she had been there for over 15 minutes and wondered what everyone in the common room would be doing.
Smiling to herself as she remebered the food fight she had had with Sam over breakfast a week ago she let her thoughts run to the fact that he was like James and he wasn't here.
Sighing as the circle met its beginning again, she grabbed an orange and began peeling it trying to relax the hurting headache which was now building up more.

 

[Toni Addison]

Toni walked about the school her head held high. The rumors about her and Sam's break up were probably already running about from mouth to mouth of students that had nothing better to do than spread the word. Sighing slightly Toni knew she was one of those girls. It just wasn't as much fun when you were on the other side of the rumors. Not like they were really rumors. Toni had broken up with Sam because he had cheated on her with Jenna, though Sam hadn't broken up with Toni when she had cheated on Sam with Beau. Now Sam was going to go out with Jenna, Toni bet Beau already had a girlfriend and Toni was left alone.

Walking to the Kitchens in need of chocolate wishing that Wednesday would be found there. Toni really needed a laugh about now. Yet when she entered the kitchens she noticed a young girl, maybe a year older than Toni herself, sitting down with a mug of coffee or hot chocolate. Sitting next to the girl, Toni put a fake though perfectly acted smile on her face. "Hey" She said seeing that the girl looked down in the mood as well. Something to get my mind off Sam. the pathetic problems of others Toni thought happily. "What brings you to the kitchens?" Toni asked as she stood up and began to leaf through the cabinets for brownies or chocolate, some form of sweets.

 

[Kate Johnson]

Kate looked up as another girl joined her. She looked nice but Kate was rubbish at judging people. "Hi, i just needed a place to sit and think. I find the kitchens relaxing. The smell of the food cooking and the warmth makes me feel special. How about you?" She asked, the girl seemed younger than her and she wondered why she was down here.
