Kaerie was up in the Owlery, feeding her pet tawny owl, Hanz, a dead rat, his favourite treat. She stroked him as she did so, she was sitting on some boxes to reach him. She looked out of the open window next to him, capturing the perfect view of the Forbidden Forest. She sighed. She missed home, though it felt weird saying it. She delved in her pocket and pulled out a picture of her parents outside their house in Dublin, Ireland. Oh, how she missed them. Then she pulled out another picture, of her little sister, Jayni. She sniffed, trying to stay her bubbly self. She looked out to the forest again, wondering what they were doing right now.

Sam walked slowly up to the Owlery, holding a letter to her parents. She saw Kaerie on some boxes, looking at photos. "Hey Kaerie" she smiled. "You ok?"

She nodded slightly. "Yeah." She said, stowing away the pictures. It was one of Kaerie's weak points - letting people know her true feelings. She smiled at Sam. "So what are you doing up here?"

"Oh, just got a letter to my parents to send" Sam smiled. "They like hearing from me.. what about you?"

"Just feeding Hanz." She said, stroking him. She smiled and looked out of the window quickly, hoping Sam didn't see the tears that were about to spring from her eyes.

Sam walked over to the boxes where Kaerie was and looked up at them. "Hanz? Cuute!" she grinned, then when Kaerie looked away she asked "is something wrong?"

Kaerie shook her head, letting a tear slide down one pale cheek. She wiped it away quickly hoping Sam didn't see.

Sam climbed up on the boxes and got to where Kaerie was sitting and hugged her. "Homesick?" she asked.

Kaerie sniffed and hugged her back. "Very." She murmured.

"Don't worry" Sam carried on hugging her. "It happens to everyone.. do you have any sisters or brothers?"

"Yes." Kaerie mumbled into Sam's shoulder. "One sister."

Sam smiled slightly. "How old is she?"

"Eight." She said. Just being able to talk about them made her feel miraculously better.

Sam smiled. "Aawh. Have you got a picture of her?"

"Yes," She said, pulling out the picture of her little sister on the swing.

Sam looked at the picture and grinned. "She's cute! She looks like you"
