Jaycee wasn't a fan of waking up early or going to class. She wished the wizarding school was different from regular school when it came to time for class, but it seemed everyone worked off of the same times for school. 8 am until whenever classes ended, except in Hogwarts she had some classes some days and the other classes on other days. Saturday and Sunday were her only days off, which she hated, since in muggle school she would often have Fridays off because the schools were too poor to teach them five days a week.
Another thing about muggle school that Jaycee missed was the dress code. In muggle school she was able to dress however she wanted, but in Hogwarts she had a uniform she had to wear every day, other than on the weekends of course. She hated the uniforms, but she couldn't deny that the uniforms did make her body look more defined. While walking the corridors or entering the Great Hall and classes, she would have many heads turn her way to check her out.
Jaycee loved the holidays though, especially since she was able to spend time with her new family. Bill and Charlie were the sweetest boys ever. They would bombard Jaycee with hugs when she'd come home, and ask her many questions about Hogwarts. Well, Bill more than Charlie, since Charlie was only two years old, but he was close to three years old. Their birthdays would be while Jaycee was still in school, but she promised to buy them a present and send it to them as soon as she could.
The Quinn-Weasley girl loved receiving letters from all of the Weasleys, especially Bill, since he was just learning to write well enough for a letter. Charlie really wasn't old enough to write a letter, but he'd draw the girl pictures and Molly would send them when she sent her own letters to Jaycee. She had been in Hogwarts for two years now, meaning she was now a fifth year, but Jaycee still felt as though she had quite a lot to learn.
Over the two years Jaycee had lived with the Weasleys, she had become quite close and comfortable with them all. She even called Molly and Arthur her parents quite often, which Molly loved more than words. Jaycee often tried to block out memories of her old parents, knowing they would cause problems for her if she was around them.
Two years had gone by, but luckily Jaycee hadn't been outed as the Princess of Gotham City. Her parents had never been mentioned to her, which meant nobody knew who she really was. When anybody talked about her, it was always Jaycee Weasley, and never Jaycee Quinn, so she figured she'd be safe from everyone finding out the truth. She hadn't even told her friends who her really family was, just to keep her secret safe from everyone.
She was still friends with the Marauders, but she had become closer to all of the girls. Marlene and Lily were the two she wasn't the closest with, which wasn't too shocking. The two girls had made it their mission to make Jaycee comfortable in Hogwarts, even if that meant leaving their own friends to hang out with her. She was around quite often when James would try to woo Lily, or when Marlene would flirt endlessly with a Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw girl.
As the trio at breakfast together, waiting for Mary, Dorcas, and Alice to come to the Great Hall, they conversed about the newest gossip Marlene had heard from one of her many hookups. Soon the post came in, dropping The Daily Prophet in front of the trio of girls.
"Isn't that your family owl?" Marlene asked, as she pointed to the owl flying over the table.
"Yes, I wonder what Mum has written today." Jaycee commented, and Lily smiled.
"Maybe it's your little brother Bill, or another drawing from your baby brother Charlie." She said, and Jaycee smiled.
Jaycee grabbed two letters from the owl, petting it's head lightly and giving it a treat, before watching the owl fly off.
"I got one from Mum and one from Bill." Jaycee said, as she smiled at the two letters.
Jaycee had began to form somewhat of an accent since she began to live with the Weasleys and go to Hogwsrts. She didn't stand out as much anymore for her American accent, since it wasn't prominent anymore. She opened Bill's first, seeing the messy handwriting scrawled across the parchment.
Dear Jaycee,
Mummy your favorite food for dinner last night. She said she missed you a lot. I miss you too. I hope you come home soon. Writing letters isn't close to hugging you. Thank you for the chocolate frogs, Mummy says you spoil me and Charlie too much. I don't think so, neither does Charlie. I want to see you soon. I love you.
Love,
Bill
"Awww!" The girls cooed, listening to the letter as Jaycee read it outloud.
"You've got to send him more chocolates, and maybe a couple other sweets." Lily gushed, and Marlene nodded in agreement.
"I will. Hogsmeade is tomorrow. We can pick up some sweets when we go. I have to get Charlie and Bill birthday gifts, too." Jaycee replied, and the girls grinned.
"Read your Mum's letter!" Marlene exclaimed, causing Jaycee to laugh.
Dear Jaycee,
The boys, Arthur, and I miss you dearly. What would you like for your birthday? I know it's only October, but November is coming soon. Your birthday is nine days before Bill's, so I need to be prepared. I'm trying to talk to Dumbledore, so he'd let you come to the Burrow for your birthday, but I haven't gotten word back yet.
Oh! I have some exciting news. I haven't told Charlie and Bill yet, but I wanted you to know. I'm pregnant! I found out only a few weeks ago. I hope you're excited. Arthur and I hoped you take the news well, since you're our oldest. The boys may not like the idea of sharing you with a new baby.
I hope to see you soon, my dear. We all dearly miss you. I was thinking of taking the boys to the Leaky Cauldron during one of your Hogsmeade trips so we can see you. How about your next trip, sound good? We love you, Jaycee.
Ps. Charlie drew you another picture. It's in the envelope with this letter.
Love,
Mum
"A new baby!" Lily squealed, causing the Marauders to look down at her with questioning stares.
"You've got the cutest family." Marlene said, and Lily agreed.
Jaycee loved her friends and family, but she was nervous about the new baby. What if Molly and Arthur couldn't care for her anymore after having another baby?

A/N: I hope you guys liked this chapter. I wasn't sure if I wanted it to be 5th year or 6th year, but I have so much I need to add to the story, I figured 5th year was best.
Love you guys!
