Four - Jack hates school

[newt_jack]

I hate school.

Actually, that was pretty much the gist of what I wanted to say. Luckily for you it's so succinct, eh? Holidays are actually kind of evil, when you think about it. They give you a taste of freedom and just as you're beginning to enjoy it they take it away again. Angelina's party was great and so was Demelza's. Demelza's

You know you miss lounging around the Common Room with us pretty girl when you go away, Jack dear.

Plus, school is fun! With the exception of Umbridge.

[newt_jack]

School might be fun for you, but school is a pain in the arse for me. One more year...and then I'm free!!

[newt_victoria]

But you're playing Quidditch! You love Quidditch! How can you want to leave?

[newt_jack]

I could play Quidditch...elsewhere? Ok, I can't really.

You're right - I don't want to leave, exactly, but only because there's no place better to go. I certainly don't want to go home.

[newt_victoria]

No, Jack, you couldn't. That's not nice to say though.

You don't? Why ever not?

[newt_jack]

Well, for one, my parents live there. And I like them OK, as much as you can like parents, but it's Slough, for Merlin's sake.

Ever been there?

[newt_victoria]

No, I have not.

I am planning to ask a bunch of people, my roommates included, to come stay with me in Kent over Easter. You're welcome to come along, if you'd like.

[newt_jack]

Wow. Seriously?

[newt_victoria]

Of course! There is plenty of room for everyone!

[newt_jack]

Wow.

Cool!
