Cass woke up by hearing someone yell through the house. She peeled open her eyes and scrunched up her face as the light hit her eyes. She must have forgotten to close the blinds the evening before.

After adjusting to the light for a moment, she got up and changed into black sweatpants and a red tanktop, not particularly the best but the first clothes she found.

Hearing the voice once again yell out for breakfast, she went downstairs to see her uncles, Ron and Hermine already sit at the table while Molly put a big pot of scrambled eggs and bread in the middle of them all.

She sat down on the free chair next to Remus and shoved some food on her plate after greeting them all. Molly had given her the shortest 'hello' with the most dismay in her voice.

They all began eating until the twins suddenly came downstairs and basically stumbled into the room.

"Oh Fred, George, how lovely of you to finally join us." Molly said sarcastically and everyone knew how badly she wanted to roll her eyes at her children.

Sometimes Cass wondered if she treated them all like this or if she favored one more than the others. Her guess was on Ginny for being the only girl.

"Sorry mum." George chuckled and sat down next to Ron, leaving Fred to sit down next to Cass.

They all ate in the awkward silence until Sirius began talking to Molly, soon including the children and Remus as well.

Suddenly Fred leaned over to grab the salt from in front of Cass. He immediately used the opportunity and whispered, "Red suits you more than it does any Gryffindor."

A faint smile tugged on her lips as she looked at her food, desperately trying to hide the blush on her face, "Thank you." She mumbled back.

He sat back in his seat again and slowly moved his foot under the table to rest against hers and the small smile on her lips didn't falter.

After both finished their plate, Fred spoke up, but this time, for everyone to hear, "Sirius, is there a downstairs bathroom here?"

"No kiddo, there are ones in first up to fourth floor only, though the fourth floor, where me and Remus sleep has the biggest ones." Sirius explained without looking up from his food much.

"If you are asking like that, I suppose you need help finding one," Remus asked before looking at Cass beside him, "Cass, you're also finished, will you show our guest the bathrooms?" He smiled at her kindly.
