Interacting with: @Clara Alexander Mentioning:

It was the morning of April 16 2023. A Sunday. Beatrice stood at the Platform with both of her parents and Calliope. She was unsure why they had let her come as they usually denied any pleading to come here. Benedict and Edith were still home, sleeping in their beds or possibly getting their breakfast served by one of the house elves. Spring Break had ended and it was time to leave again. It wasn't that Beatrice cared particularly much but seeing all the other parents with their kids, made her whish she did care. There were people hugging, parents crying and siblings holding onto each others hands as they got onto the train. The skirt, shirt and pullover she was wearing above the shirt had been picked out by her mother, as well as any jewelry or accessories. Beatrice had only been allowed to pick out her boots. Spring break had ended so quickly and the first year was unsure if she had liked it or not. Soon last goodbyes were exchanged, her mother pressed a kiss on her head and Calliope hugged her, before Beatrice climbed the train. She didn't have to search long to find an empty compartment, where she sat down after settling her heavy trunk where it was supposed to go. Beatrice hated having a lot of luggage. The train started moving and as it did, Beatrice hoped that she would stay alone in here. The only person she would have wanted to ride with, was not here.
