Jack dragged his trunk off of the train, there were only a few other people at the station thankfully. He would admit to himself he was glad his mother had allowed him to come a few days early. But he'd never tell her that. At eleven he was now a young man and while he did need his mother he didn't need her for EVERYTHING.
It had only gotten worse after his Da had died. Sometimes he felt as though she was smothering him. Granted he knew it must be hard for her too, but she needed to give him some space too! Luckily she'd had to go to Hogwarts a few weeks early to see to her new post, no posts since it seemed she'd be teaching now too. Maybe it would help her, or at least occupy her time some.
He did miss her, but it had been nice spending time with Grandpa Rogan the last few weeks. They'd talked a lot about his father all the good times. Jack had learned a lot from him in that short time. He also learned to try to give his mum a break. So now he stood waiting for her to meet him. He had been a bit nasty to her before she left, but his fathers death had been hard on him as well.
Setting down his trunk he sat on it and waited.
