2PM after classes
Logan had been in a mood for most of the day before and most of that morning. Not once had she smiled and now that she was sitting in the library waiting for Henry she wasn't even interested in the book she was reading. Hearing a purring, Logan looked to her left and sighed as a small silver and black cat jumped onto the table purring.

"Hello Sherlock," she muttered as the cat rubbed against her arms softly. Slowly she reached her hand out and ran it down the cats spine, allowing the cat to arch its back into her hand. The car looked at her as he heard his name and purred before shoving himself to sit on top of the book she had been attempting to read over. As if he under stood her, he shook his head allowing the bell on his collar to ring out through the library. She honestly didn't know if the cat was even allowed in there, but he was rather well behaved and stuck close to his owner anyway.

"I know Sherlock, but I don't know what to do. I already sent the letter back to father so it isn't like I am able to do much at this point anyways." The Hufflepuff spoke to the cat as if he were a human and understood everything she was saying to him. With a shake of her head, she looked up waiting for Henry to come to the girl.

Henry stepped into the Library and wait to meet Logan, even through classes just finished the boy's tie was already undone and his robes weren't even buckled together anymore and his shirt was also untucked from his pants as he ran a hand through his hair and his mind almost went to his twin sister and that letter that she sent him just a few days before and if his mind did go to her then maybe he would have wrote a letter back and changed the fate and time itself but sadly his mind didn't because when Henry spotted Logan; he saw that next to his best friend was a small grey and white cat with a collar laying next to her and since Henry loved all cats and was basically a cat person everything else left his mind as he ran to her.

Henry dropped his messager type bag on the floor besides his chair once he got to her and sat down in such a hurry as he spoke " you got a cat! Bloody awesome, what's his or her name? When did you get them? Is he or her a Egyptian Mau? How old is he or she?" Henry seemed to be spilling with questions as he was more than happy at the fact that his best friend had a cat, well new cat since he had a family cat already and when Henry was done with his breath he continued and would have if he wasn't or isn't cut off " He or she is so cute! When did you him or her? What is he or hers personality so far? Can I pet him or her? Your so lucky Logan, I always wanted a cat but you know that my life is too poor right now. But yours is so cute and looks adventurous. I could cat sit or watch him or her when ever you need me to? I love cats, so it won't be a big deal. How's your other cat handling him or her? Is he use to the farm-"

At the sound of Henry asking questions and Logan quickly put on a fake smile. Sherlock on the other hand was startled by the boy and would have fallen off the table if Logan hadn't grabbed a hold of him.

"Henry meet Sherlock, my new Egyptian Mau kitten." Logan didn't even realize that she hadn't called the boy Charm, something she hadn't stopped calling him since first year. "I got him a couple of weeks ago and he is about 6 months old I believe. So far Sherlock just seems to be curious about everything. He has gotten stuck in a tree down at the great lake once because he couldn't figure out how to get down. He also got stuck underneath my bed." She remembered how he managed to get himself under there and shook her head. "If I am outside he is normally on a harness because he keeps on getting himself stuck places and I got tired of getting him out. The horses don't seem to mind him and he doesn't seem to mind them, but he is still rather nervous around all of them." The Hufflepuff explained everything rather quickly as she set the cat back on the table.

"Pet him if you would like, although he is rather shy around people."

[quote]Henry listened to his best friend speak and a part of him thought that there was something wrong with Logan since she didn't call him charm, a nickname that she always called him since the start of their first year but Henry thought that he would ask her about it later as he listened to her talk about her cat before putting his hand gently in front of him and smiling at him as he spoke softly " hello there, Sherlock aren't you a cute little kitty," Henry smiled down at the cat which bought him joy before continuing " may I pet you Sherlock? I think I may have a treat for you later," Henry thought about giving him some fish from dinner that night in the great hall but also knee that he would have to ask Logan later if he could.

Remembering to ask Logan about her worries and mood since the girl wasn't acting like herself that day,
Henry smiled at her as he continuing to speak in a soft voice " sounds like you have your hands full quite a lot with him. I can watch him when ever you need a break or have too much on your mind if you like Robin?" Henry had two thoughts on his mind, one was he wanted to pet and hang out a lot more with sherlock and the other was that there was something wrong with Logan and he wanted to find out what and how could he help her so in the end there was no room to think about the letter or his twin sister which will have a worse result in the end.

The word treat set Sherlock off, immediately he walked over to the boy and began to rub all over him purring. If there was one thing Logan knew about that cat, it was that he loved food. "I should probably have informed you that he loves food. If you want to give him a little bit of food later you can, he will probably run it off afterwards anyway."

She let out a tired sigh as she looked over at the cat and her best friend. The cat was now all over the boy since he must have proved himself as a trustworthy person. It also may have been the fact that he said he would give him a treat. "If you would, that would be wonderful. I don't think Sherlock ever sleeps." At the sound of his name, said cat meowed a bit at his owner before going back to giving Henry all of the attention.

Gently Logan lay her head on hand, a tiny bit of a smile appearing on her face. This was the first time since the letter that she had even smiled a little bit and it felt nice. The Hufflepuff knew that it wouldn't be too long until someone realized she wasn't acting like herself, whether it was a Henry or a roommate she didn't know which, not did she care too much.

When Logan said that Sherlock loved food, Henry saw that because the cat suddenly started to run on over him which made him smile as he started to starch behind his ears and along his back, before the saying " then would you mind if I give him some Fish after dinner together Robin?" Henry looked up and smiled at her as he continued to pet and scratch her cat which he was more then enjoying and almost missed Logan next sentence and when she finished, the twelve year old grinned wildly as he spoke " it would be my honor to watch him for you Robin," Henry smiled at her as his kindness broke through his blue eyes and he was happy for a few moments but what he didn't know is that, those moments will soon be hard to find in the coming months.

Henry continued to starch behind the cat's ears and saw or thought that there was something wrong with Logan, how did he know this well he didn't know. It was almost like a feeling since she was his best friend and so it was almost like he knew there was something wrong and wanted to ask but didn't know how so he just continued to pet Sherlock.

Sherlock continued to ignore his owner and stayed with Henry, this time attempting to move onto the boy's shoulders for more comfort. He continued to purr, although moved his tail so that it was in Henry's face, flicking it every couple of seconds.

Logan looked over at the duo with a small grin on her face. At least Sherlock seemed to like Henry well enough. "Yeah, give him some fish. He should enjoy that." The Baird family normally did not eat a lot of fish, but since getting Sherlock quite a bit had shown up in their house as a treat for the new cat. The Hufflepuff wouldn't be surprised if the little cat would weigh more than he was supposed to after constantly eating anything he could get a hold of.

Gently Logan picked up her book and marked the page, now that her cat was off of the book and Henry was here, she would have a bit more of a distraction for herself. She hadn't really thought about how her mood was affecting everyone else, but she was in a bit of better spirits now that Henry was around for her to talk to. "So how was your day Hen.. Charm.? Logan managed to catch herself halfway through his name and quickly said his nickname instead.

Hearing that he could give Sherlock some fish later, Henry starched the cat behind the ears a bit more as he spoke to the cat in a low and sort of high pitch voice " do you want some fish, Sherlock? Uh, cute kitty, do you want some fish later." Henry smiled at the cat as it calmed him to pet him before looking back at Logan as he just caught her question which put some uneasy feelings and bubbling questions in the twelve years old mind that he wasn't sure if he should ask them or not but in the end he decided to continue to test the waters and also get to know Sherlock which was distracting him a bit.

" Fine I guess, if you don't count my newfound hidden life or family," Henry wrinkled his nose a bit at the thought and look over to Logan as he spoke again " what about you, how are you Robin?" Henry smiled at her as he continued to pet Sherlock and once he saw the cat was trying to get onto his shoulder, Henry let the cat climb up onto his shoulder and smiled as he felt the cat's warm fur brush against his skin which was comforting to the boy.

Sherlock continued to purr as he wrapped himself around Henry's neck, laying down and closing his eyes in bliss. Logan could tell that Sherlock was already starting to like Henry and she greatly appreciated that. "I am fine, not much has changed since yesterday." Logan looked around the quiet library a bit as a few first years walked in, but they didn't really bother her that much.

She had decided yesterday, after spending most of the afternoon in her room, that she wasn't going to tell Henry about the letter. He already had enough going on in his life and she didn't want to add anymore stress. She hoped that she wasn't being too obvious about anything, but she wasn't sure. "How were your classes today? Mine were rather easy, tiring, but easy." She just tried to keep a conversation going to draw her mind away from the letter that sat in her bag beside her. If she didn't think about it, she would be happy again, hopefully. As long as her mind was distracted, the memories would be ignored and she would be fine. Well, as fine as she was going to be able to get after the letter.

Henry felt Sherlock climb onto his shoulders and curl up around his neck, he then felt the cat lay down and petted him a few more minutes as he felt the slight hum of his purr on his neck before stopping and trying his best to remain still as to not to disturb or wake the cat, especially and mist definitely not knock the cat off which would frightened the boy and also embarrass him beyond belief so he sat there unmoving like a stature as he listened to Logan speak and nod when she finished before adding " alright, so the would you like to hear a fact about or a few about your new friend's species?" Henry already knew that Logan knew he was a massive geek and known it all so he wasn't embarrassed a he spoke softly trying not to wake Sherlock, " Cats are proved to be stress relievers and was proved that they can stop a panicked or anxiety attack from coming on."

Henry was enjoying himself a bit to much with releasing his geek and know it all side that he continued " but I would make sure that Sherlock doesn't kill nor eat any mice since cats get this chemical or sickness from mice that can be transmitted to humans and cause the human to become tried and not function as usual and I'll hate for my best friend or her cat to get hurt." Henry smiled at her the for a spit second thought he saw something in her face before hearing her speak again and replying " same my classes were a bit dull and boring, oh with the added bonus of hearing my professors dot on my older brother about how smart and perfect he was," Henry chuckled a bit at the joke and hoped that it also cheered Logan up a bit.
