Sabrina ; The next generation

Five

I shouldn't be writing right now.

I should be studying. I have an exam at noon tomorrow and I haven't studied at all, and I can't fail because then I can't start my education.

But here I am... writing lmao. I should go study.

I hope you enjoy the chapter!

I stood outside my dad and my uncles shop, finishing my cigarette so I could walk inside and check out Hannah.

She was probably looking really hot today. Hotter than usual if that's even possible.

"What are you—" I froze as the door swung open, my uncle Fred standing in the door.

He folded his arms over his chest before leaning against the doorframe.

"Still smoking, are we?" He grinned. "Do your parents know you haven't quit like you promised them?"

I shrugged.

"Mum's been sending me packs while at school."

"Your mum—" he let out a small laugh. "...course she has."

"She said that seeing as I'm already addicted to nicotine, she could just help me get it so I don't have to steal or make a fake ID to get them, but she's still trying to get me to quit."

"And how's that going?"

"Oh, I'm not going to quit."

Uncle Fred rolled his eyes.

"Throw that out—" he pointed to the cigarette that rested between two fingers. "...then come inside. Blake's at work but Robin is in his room upstairs."

After my parents moved out, Uncle Fred stayed and Aunt Blake moved in with them. They had two children through the years, expanded the flat and lived there with Lillian who's the oldest and Robin who's the youngest.

Lillian's moved out. She's twenty and works with Uncle Charlie in Romania.

Robin is my age. Only three weeks older than me. He's also in Gryffindor, which I am too.

Lillian was in Gryffindor too and so is Theo, but Alec was in Ravenclaw along with Mia.

Eli was a Gryffindor too.

I'm the only of my siblings who's still at Hogwarts, but at least I've got my many cousins.

If I have to count, we're currently twelve cousins who attend Hogwarts, but when Molly starts after the summer, we'll be thirteen.

Molly is my uncle Percy and Aunt Audrey's daughter. She's named after our grandmother.

My dad's mother.

I'm named after my mum's mother. Well, only my middle name really.

No one were named after my grandfather but I think that's because my uncle Will already is.

His middle name is Augustus which is the— was the name of my grandfather.

I was close to grandpa Augustus, but he passed away 'bout eight months ago... had a heart attack, couldn't be revived.

It was a big loss.

Mum doesn't talk about him anymore. It hurts too much. She's lost too many people in her life and they were all very close to her.

"I'm not here to see Robin." I said. "I'm here to see if dad is... if dad... if he—

I've got nothing.
