There I was sitting on the edge of my bed, with the letter in my hand. Pathetic really. How could I really be scared of a letter, surely it would die down by summer.
I mean there wasn't anything scary on it, but I know my parents I know when they are mad or sad or and happy, just by what they say, and this wasn't good.
It was a Saturday. Meant I didn't have to get up early.
"Alright, hun time to get up and have some fun" Lara shouted as I felt part of my bed sink. I rolled over to find her lying on my bed this the most innocent smile I've ever seen.
"And what do you suggest of wise one," I said sarcastically.
"You're cute when your grumpy you know that" she got up and shot me a wink.
"We are in a quite literal magic castle, let's explore!"
I grumbled some unlaudable noises and rolled back over in my covers.
Well, that was until I felt a huge pressure on top of me.
"Ah . . . get off me you big goof"
I got up sending glares to Lara.
"So much for my long lie"
"Suck it up hun"
"So, where are we going?"
"Hmm, I have thought that far let. Come on Artemis have some fun!" she held out her hand
"Okay... BUT! ... no forbidden forest."
"I would never!"
"Sure"
The was a second of silence before we bust of in giggles.
And that's how we spent our day, we got so caught up on what we were doing we missed lunch.
We got back to the dorm to find the others, and that's extractly where they were.
"There you two are, now let get some grub."
we got into the great hall, laughing about something Nitka said. Spotting Xander at the table we made our way to him.
"Hey Xan, long time"
"Yeah, that one morning without me must have been hard"
I go to grab his hands and overdramatizes my voice "Never leave me again" and pretend to gush over him.
"someone's in a better mood" He gave me a look almost as he was debating what his next "So Erm I guess you read the letter and it wasn't as bad as you thought."
With that, the atmosphere dropped and I could feel all eyes on me.
"Oh, yeh," – "can you pass me a drink, Nitka?"
"Sure, but don't think your diverting worked." She placed a glass of orange juice at me and cleared her throat
"Now did you actually read the letter? How bad was it? Oh and – "I cut her off
"Yes! I read it. Yes, it was bad and no I don't want to talk about it. 3 mounts till I have to deal with it."
We all got lost in our own conversions. Anjia asked if we would rather no arms or no legs, No legs for sure! When I notice Nitka look at me or rather something behind me.
"What is it?" I asked
"Erm that 3rd year the one with the hair is looking at you while talking to those boys the ginger ones" she nods in their direction.
