Turn Back Time // Sebastian Sallow

Chapter Forty-Four- Right Place, Wrong Time

After classes, I headed straight for the common room to gather my things so we could head to Feldcroft. The three of us had decided to fly there, and luckily for me, Imelda introduced me to a very handy bag that holds an endless amount of needed supplies for the weekend. It had to be the size of a regular purse, but everything I needed, including clothes and shoes for the weekend fit inside. It was times like these that I was truly grateful for magic.

"Already meeting the family, I see," Imelda teased.

"Shut up," I giggled as I finished gathering my things.

"Sebastian never brings anyone to Feldcroft besides Ominis, you clearly are important to him, that's all I'm saying," she argued, raising her hands up in defense.

"It's not like I'm going to just meet his family, the festival is this weekend, won't plenty of Hogwarts students, including you, be there?" I argued back.

"True, but you're the only one staying with Sebastian himself," she smirked.

"Imelda, nothing is going to happen, if anything was going to happen between us, it would have already. Plus Ominis, his sister Anne, and uncle will also be present in the house. So no funny business," I smiled, hoisting my purse over my shoulder.

"We'll see about that, now go have fun, I'll see you at the festival!" she smiled and I headed out.

Sebastian and Ominis were already waiting for me in the usual spot. I hoped things wouldn't be weird from last night. Sebastian better have apologized.

"So is the gang all back together then?" I asked approaching the two.

Sebastian looked up and smiled, noticing me. "Hey you," he smiled.

"If by back together, you mean Sebastian apologized for his brute behavior last night, then yes I suppose, I'm still upset at everything, but I'll manage," Ominis responded.

"Aww Ominis, you know you love me," Sebastian said, putting an arm around him.

"Love is an interesting way to put it," Ominis said sarcastically.

"So, flying... Om, you fly?" I asked suddenly concerned.

"Oh yes, I'm quite excellent at it, in fact I was thinking I should try out for the Quidditch team," he said dryly.

"Ominis, bloody hell, did you forget to eat today?" Sebastian laughed.

"Apologies Maddie dear, I didn't get the best sleep considering this one was profusely begging for my forgiveness all night long," Ominis said.

I laughed, "It's fine Om, your sarcasm is always welcome here. So, who are you flying with?"

"Most definitely you, I'd rather not be holding onto this one," Ominis said pointing to Sebastian.

"What? No fair, I wanna fly with Maddz!" Sebastian argued.

"Sebastian, you'll be fine, I can't fly on my own for Merlin's sake, you understand that, right?" Ominis argued.

"But–" Sebastian started.

"And no, we will not be riding three of us on one broom, absolutely not, don't even think about it," Ominis interrupted him.

I laughed at the two, "You guys are ridiculous."

"That's fine, but I call Maddz for the ferris wheel," Sebastian winked at me.

I blushed at the sentiment.

Stop it Maddz, this is clearly not a date thing. You're just friends, like he said. Nothing else. Nothing more.
