Black Love - Fantastic Beasts

Part 25

Sunday morning has arrived and Casey never feels lighter or happier.

She had spent the night in Newt's house, listening to Tina's story about everything that happened in New York. All the things that she wanted to know but cannot bear to ask it in front of Credence.

Tina is such a nice and kind woman. No wonder Newt falls for her.

Tina also told Casey about her sister, Queenie. Yet, although they both are legilimens, Casey's kind is rather bizarre.

A cursed legilimen is a rather unique case. In such situation, the legilimen sometimes lost their ability in controlling their power to the extent that it may cause the legilimen to lose their sanity.

Unlike Queenie that is able to control when or where she wanted to use the power naturally, Casey had to go through intense training with Prof. Dumbledore in order to control it. However, she still struggles with thoughts that sometimes penetrates her mind unknowingly.

Tina however comforted her by saying that she will overcome it sooner or later. Casey can't help but to smile at Tina's sincerity.

*****

Newt and Tina is enjoying their hi-tea. Both silently looks at each other before Tina starts to speak.

"Credence has changed. Don't you think?"

Newt sips his flower tea before nodding slightly.

"And I guess it's because of Casey..."

Tina continues while her eyes trail outside of the house, following where Casey and Credence is.

Newt smiles before putting back his tea on the table.

"Credence always needs someone by his side... And apparently, Casey needs someone too..."

Newt said simply before again sipping his flower tea. The flower tea taste better than ever. He doesn't know the exact reason but he can't stop sipping it.

"So... You haven't tell me the exact reason why you are here..."

Tina almost choked at Newt's remark. She quickly clears her throat.

"I thought I told you I'm here to meet Credence..."

"So... Is that it?"

Tina smiles at Newt's brave remark. A pink tinge unknowingly creeps her face.

"And... I've been wanting to see you too Newt..."

*****

Casey and Credence spend their evening by practicing some levitation charm. Although it's just a simple charm, it's enough to make Credence smiles from ear to ear. For the first time in his life, he is able to think himself as a wizard.

Casey that notices Credence's happines starts to take out a pouch bag out of her pocket. She carefully puts her hand inside, searching for the stuff she wants. She grins when she manages to grab a sleek cylinder figure.

She quickly takes out the stuff, a black shiny broom with the word 'Nimbus 999' at the handle. Credence starts to look at her with confusion.

"This is a broomstick Credence... I guess you heard about witches flying on broomsticks..."

Credence slowly nods.

Casey smiles before standing up, holding out her hand to Credence.

"Come... Fly with me..."

Credence gapes at Casey's words. He feels quite hesitant as he never fly before. Casey senses his anxiousness, so she quickly grab Credence's arm before pulling him to stand up.

"It's okay... I'm here with you..."

As soon as she said that, Casey quickly hops on her broom, gesturing to Credence to sit behind her.

Credence carefully follows.

"Hold me tight..."

Casey managed to say before they both fly with a woosh.
