"YOU DID WHAT?" Pierre said surprised as I told him that I fixed Fred's bone.

Fred left yesterday as he had to get back to the shop because he promised George to do so. We spent our remaining time just chatting and mostly staying at home. Although Fred insisted that we would go back to the "fairy forest" as he called it again.

"I couldn't believe it myself" I answered Pierre

"I mean I knew that you were always good at using Episkey but that is only for smaller injuries! I still can't believe what you did! Using Brackium Emendo for the first time? Have you thought about what would have happened if something went wrong?" he looked at me

"First up, you sound like mum" I grinned "and of course I knew the possible consequences but well I didn't really know what to do! If I think about it know I could have apparated to the hospital and get a healer there but I didn't think of that" I explained

"I mean I find it quite impressive even though it was irresponsible! I mean performing it right the first time? I don't know if there are a lot of reported cases like that" Pierre pointed out "Have you ever considered becoming a healer?"

"Not really" I confessed "I mean only because I was able to perform a spell first try, doesn't mean that I am cut out for it"

"Well if I think about it you might be! I mean you were always pretty good at potions and stuff"

"That still doesn't mean that I can do it"

"When I was still in school I was told to become a healer because I could perform Episkey and look at you" Pierre smiled

"I really don't know if it's the right choice"

"Do you have any other plans yet? NO because you told me so! You don't know what you want to do after the holidays and in the end what do you have to lose?"

"It's just that people keep giving me career advice lately" I told him

"Mhm?" he raised an eyebrow "And who gave you some?"

"Well Circe told me that I should think about becoming a professional Quidditch, mum of course advised me to get a desk job and Fred offered me to help him with his shop, even though that is not actual career advice"

"Circe got a point! You are pretty good at Quidditch but as for mum, you're not the person to work at a desk if you ask me" he told me

"So?"

"So! That means that my idea makes sense and definitely makes the most sense out of all of them" he said as he leaned back into his chair "Ok what about this? You will think about my suggestion and in the meantime I will look for healing schools because I don't have anything to do either way"

"Fine! If you will leave me alone for the meantime" I smiled

"We will see about that" he grinned

"Ok so after some research" Pierre came rushing into my room the next day "There are a few healer schools around Europe! Though it is said that you get the best education in the UK. Based on that I continued my research and found out that there is one in England, outside of London and one somewhere in Scotland. If you want to stay here, there is a school in the North of France"

"You found out about all of that in one day?" I asked surprised

"Well yeah!" he said enthusiastically "And I also found out that it can be quite tricky for international students to get into the ones in the UK but I believe that your grades are good enough and that you might have some advantage because the year the spend at Hogwarts and because your English is so good" he explained, talking fast

"But I didn't have like Hogwarts classes" I pointed out "I don't know Pierre! I mean you might got a point that it could be quite interesting for me because it is so diverse but I'm not sure if it's the right thing for me" I sighed

"As you told me yesterday, you don't have any other plans anyway" Pierre pointed out "I mean you can apply and if you don't get in then it's fine too! And you know what? Mum thinks that it would suit you"

"You told mum?!" I looked at him surprised

"Yeah and she thinks the same way I do! She thinks that you should apply and that you can still decide afterwards" he explained "Come on, just apply! Do it for your lovely big brother!"

"Do you realise that you act like a 6-year-old sometimes?" I smiled

"So what?"

"Nothing! I just find it very funny"

"So will you do it? For me?"

"Alright!" I agreed "But only because I have nothing better to do anyways"

"I KNEW IT" Pierre said as he hugged me tightly

So I spend the next few days on my applications. I didn't really believe that I would be accepted in the schools in the UK as Pierre said that it was hard to get in. I felt as though I might actually have a decent shot at the one here in France.

As my mum and Pierre advised me, after Pierre told her, I always wrote down that I was able to perform Brackium Emendo and Episkey correctly.

I sent out all the owls about 2 weeks ago and have been waiting for a response ever since.

I started to lose hope that I would even get an answer, because I can get quite impatient.

But then on a chilly Sunday afternoon an owl came flying through our living room window.
