3 days later
I'd told Luna everything about what I just witnessed the morning after the meeting a couple of days ago. She was happy for me being brave and strong. I opened my eyes and looked over at the calendar. I gasped, covering my mouth from my screams. Luna woke up and looked at me, her eyes widening. I punched myself to see if this was real, but it was. She smiled warmly and I looked at her, knowing I looked fine.
"Do I look bad?" I spoke. She shook her head.
"Do I look different?" I spoke. She nodded.
"Do I look scary" I spoke. She shrugged.
"Do I look okay?" She nodded and ushered my to look in the mirror. I nodded and walked into the bathroom, glancing in the mirror. My skin was a pale white, glowing immensely, my eyes were flaming red, like human blood and my hair was still curly, but it was like the colour of the darkest black I have ever seen and it was just last shoulder length. I gasped and looked over at Luna.
"So you think I should wear a glamour?" I asked. She nodded. I nodded back and closed my eyes, imagining every part of my body from what it once was. I opened my eyes and saw that my hair was back to normal and my skin was a little lighter, but my eyes turned a dark yellow instead of the red. I sighed and looked at Luna, who looked at me and shook her head in relief.
"You are back to normal" she spoke, smiling. I smiled back and hugged her, but she let go.
"Your even colder than before" she spoke, rubbing her arms. I looked at the ground and nodded. She shedded a smile. "But a bit of sun will make you warmer. By far! It's my birthday too" she spoke. I smiled, knowing that she will find a light in every darkness. And that's what I liked about her! I nodded and she went to her drawers, taking out a box. I smiled and did the same, handing her the box for her to open first. She opened it and it revealed a book about rare and magnificent creatures. She smiled and hugged me in delight. I opened the present she gave to me and it revealed a moving photo album of us and father including the bowtruckle we found last year. I smiled and looked at the cover. It was A5 size and black with a red rose covering most if it. On it, was the words; "When darkness comes, always remember your still my twin sister even though we're a year apart. I've enriched an anti wrackspirts charm and I drew this necklace to keep away the Nargles. Sisters forever. " written and a little cork necklace was printed to the corner with the initials By Luna Lovegood written at the bottom. I smiled and looked at all the pages, decorated with quotes and roses. I smiled as I flicked through every page, a different quote on each. It was so creative and thoughtful. I hugged her tight when I finished.
"Thank you" I spoke. She smiled and let go.
"Just a way for you to remember the light" she spoke, dreamily and I hugged the book excitedly. This was the best present anyone has ever given me. I looked at the door as my father Xenophilius walked in, in his yellow clothes. He looked at me and smiled, sitting in between Luna and I on her bed.
"Happy birthday, my beautiful daughters." He spoke, giving us both a hug. Once he'd given me a hug, I knew he felt how cold I was but kept a straight face. He smiled, looking at my eyes and nodded.
"Cassentina. I know your appearance has changed. Just please let me know what you look like without the glamour." He asked. I nodded and stood up, feeling the blanket of the glamour come off. His eyes lit up in fascination and he looked at my eyes and to my black hair.
"I think you look lovely with your short black hair. But I reckon you should keep the glamour on, just in case you-know- who rocks up." He spoke. I nodded and put the glamour back on.
"But dad, what about my eyes. They're not blue any more. Wouldn't people realise? And what about my darker personality and what if I can't control" I spoke, with fear. He smiled and taped my shoulder gently.
"Are you having trouble controlling at the moment?" He asked, I shook my head.
"Are you cruel to people and have the desire to kill?" He asked, I shook my head again. He straightened up and stood up.
"Well, you're just perfect to me regardless of your condition" he spoke, walking out, but stopped at the door and turned back at us.
"You have a few presents waiting for you girls downstairs from your friends." He spoke,smiling. "You girls are growing up so fast..." He spoke, but stopped, once he looked at me. Well, not me. I thought. "..." He spoke, but stopped and shook his head, walking downstairs. I smiled and grabbed a pair of black jeans with a white singlet with a dark blue knitted jumper on top. I grabbed a pair of laced flowery shoes and waited for Luna to get changed as we walked downstairs.There were 3 owls perched on our windowsill drinking water from a bowl and there were 6 boxes waiting on the table inside. I smiled and looked over at the parcels. There was 3 for me and 3 for Luna. I smiled, opening the the first one, which was messily wrapped, which I immediately knew was from Ginny. I opened the letter on top and it read.
Dear Cass,
How have you been going? I miss you at school. Have a great birthday and I'll see you back at school next year.
Ginny
I folded the letter and opened the parcel which revealed a couple of rose hair clips. I smiled and placed the present aside, looking over at Luna, who got given a moon anklet. She smiled and placed it on her left ankle. I grabbed my second present which was wrapped in blue and ripped open the wrapper to see a beater keyring. I smiled and placed it next or me, reading her card.
Dear Cassentina-Rose,
I'm soo happy you're on our Quidditch team and have a great 15th birthday. I hope to see you back at school and playing for our house!
I hope you like my present,
Cho
I closed the card and placed it beside me with the other, opening the laspresent, which I knew straight away was from Draco. It revealed a stained glass rose ornament in which I hanged it up on the window. It reflected the sun and created rainbows around the room, I'm which I found extraordinary. I read the card from him and smiled, knowing I still had feelings for him, even after the Durmstrang boy which turned out to be a vampire. I knew he loved me for what I was, not knowing my little secret.
Dear Cassentina,
I spotted this at a gift shop in muggle London and I thought of you when I saw it. I'd be looking forward to seeing you in my class back at Hogwarts,
Love,
Draco MPlease vote and comment!
