A New Start

Harriate ran along the path. She'd left the train hours ago and had been walking the whole time. Realising how close she was she spead up into a sprint. Her feet ached from being on them for so long. the train had been packed so she had stood for most of the journey and the worn boots added little comfort to her feet. Seeing Remus up ahead she smiled slightly.

'sorry...train took ages.' Harriate apologised catching her breath.
'I want to..as long as you don't mind...'

'I think different would be better' Harriate muttered as she followed Remus. 'Thank you for inviting me..'

Harriate glanced around the forest and smiled slightly. She loved being in forests, always had done since she was little. Loved drawing them.
'do they mind?' she asked nervously.

Harriate nodded and gulped nervously. She hoped she didn't do anything to offend them. She had no clue what to expect really.
She glanced around the forest again before loooking up nervously up at Remus. 'err..how many packs are there? and how many people in a pack?'

Harriate nodded in understanding before going silent uncertain what to say. She didnt want to ask to many questions incase she annoyed Remus. She glanced through the leaves trying to see where the sun was to find out the time but it was extremly hard as the trees where so close together.

'yes sir' Harriate smiled nervously pausing in the clearing and glancing around again. She stood fiddling with the hem of her shirt nervously.

Harriate stood still as she saw the man walk towards her. She looked at him in slight fear not knowing what was going to happen. She nodded when he asked her if her name was Harriate not noticing when Remus came back.
'Pleasure to meet you sir.' She replied politly offering him a small smile.

Harriate hurried over to Remus feeling safer with him. She wasnt very good around strangers under normal circumstances and she had no idea what to expect here.

Harriate looked up at Remus and smiled. She had always shared a dorm so this was a first for her.
'Thank you for bringing me Mr Lupin.'

Cody looked at the one who was looking at him,lucky his face was hidden by the hood of his coat.Cody looked away and turned to the floor and began to feel really uneasy about been around these strangers.

Cody felt his whole body was shaking he backed up intill he felt the wall against his back.Cody was trying to think of what to do,if something bad will happen.

Cody heard Harriates voice and his anger began to build up again.

'I..i'd rather not go back..if you don't mind that is..' Harriate smiled at the thought of maybe actualy having a home for once.
