"Your opinion only knows the one thing that you seem to want to have most
and you chose to save yourself in your own time
you'll have to stay and open up your own mind and every glow in the twilight

knows that the world is only what the world is made of
just you and me can agree to disagree
and the world is only what the world is made of."

"Florence Rosier, pleasure to meet you. Hopefully you don't mind company seeing as your table is the only one with open seats."

A month had already passed by at Hogwarts. Time was beginning to pass by quickly as the term was now in the full swing of things. Florence had become closer with Sirius and James. Not really having the chance to see much of the other two that followed the James and Sirius around, even if they did have most of the same classes.

But even then, most of her classes were sitting grouped together with her roommates Lily, Marlene, and Mary, so they were talking through out lessons. She enjoyed having the girls' company along with her other two roommates Molly and Alice. But what she wasn't enjoy all that much was that she hadn't really seen much of Michael.

It was a new experience for the young girl, not being around her brother 24/7. And she wasn't that found of it, to be honest. Then again, since Sirius now knew about her panic attacks he now made it his job to help Florence through them without having to get Michael involved. It helped her out a lot but it was different now. And it wasn't something she was used to.

But Florence knew that she would adjust with time, or at least that's what she just had to keep telling herself until it happened. But her panic attacks were more frequent than before and it was starting to worry Florence a bit. It seemed they were happening daily.

And early this morning when the young girl woke, she couldn't see herself getting out of bed. It worried her roommates to see the normally bubbly girl they were graced to get to see, was now a shell of a girl. It was like she had no life to her. So much so, that Lily took it upon herself to tell Sirius about Florence's state. Of course, all whilst ignoring James' presence after hearing his usual "mornin' Lily Pad".

But then after hearing about Florence, even James was too worried about his new friend to make any more of his usual comments to Lily trying to get her to date him. After sitting with what he was told, Sirius walked out of the room with James taking off in a sprint behind him to catch up. James called after Sirius who slowed a little for his friend. James huffed in and out trying to regain his breath.

"Where are you off to?" James asked once he was breathing normally again.

"To see Professor McGonagall."

"Why's that?"

"I going to see if she can lift the enchantment on the girls' staircase so I can check on Bird." Sirius deadpans causing James to snort out a laugh.

"I don't believe Professor McGonagall is going to do that for us." James responded pointing a finger at Sirius.

"If not I'll send an owl home and have my brother write to her. Even though he already does. We'll have to figure something else out if this doesn't work." Sirius huffed getting frustrated a bit at the details they were missing.
