Mikayla wore a pair of black high waisted jeans with a golden long sleeved crop top and her travelling cloak. Mikayla was getting her stuff ready for going to the Weasley's. Guitar, Keyboard and Ukulele along with her present for Ginny balancing in her left hand. "Bye Mammy," she kisses her mother's cheek, "Father." They share a nod. Mikayla rushes to the fireplace, grabs a handful of floo powder before disappearing into green flames.
Mikayla shoots out of the Weasley's fireplace, quickly standing up, taking off her travelling cloak and wipes the soot off her face. The Weasley's house was even more crowded by relatives and friends. "Mikayla!" Fred rushes over to help her with what she's carrying. "Heya Freddie, didn't miss me too much did ya?" Mikayla smiled with her lips slightly pursed. "I sure did but I have someone to show you." He smiled leaving her stuff near the end of the stairs, grabbing her by the hand and pulling her outside. Butterflies swarmed Mikayla's body, tingles shot up her finger tips as her hand was in Fred's. "Where are you bringing me?" Mikayla laughed trying to keep up with the long legged boy. He stopped, "He's alive." Fred pointed out a familiar looking dark haired boy. "HARRY!" Mikayla yelled as she ran towards him, embracing him in a hug. "Thank god, you're ok. I've been sending Selene all summer but never heard back." Once she finishes, she lets Harry go. "Sorry, just I was worried that's all." She apologised for her sudden slamming into Harry, she smiled up at Fred who's hand she missed desperately. Harry then told her about his summer which was quite eventful, Ron told her about their rescue mission before walked back to the house with Fred. "How's your summer been Freddie?" She looked up at him intriguingly, "Caused a lot of mischief with George, and saved the boy who lived from his nasty uncle and aunt. Other than that just flying and stuff." Mikayla smiled when the time her and Fred flying around Hogwarts came to mind. "What about you?" He asked interestingly, "Spent some time with my friends, barely saw my parents and I think I've conquered my stage fright." Fred beamed brightly at this news, he took Mikayla's hand again this time just so they could walk together, George passed by wiggling his eyebrows at us which made Mikayla go a crimson pink.
"Mikayla!" Ginny ran up to the O'Brien twin, who looked sympathetically at Fred who just continued walking alone. "Happy Birthday, Ginny." Mikayla smiles hugging her, they walked into the house together as Mikayla grabbed Ginny the gift she got her. She handed Ginny a cardboard box with holes in it and a bag full of stuff. Ginny looked through the bag of stuff first, "It's all cat stuff... WAIT YOU DIDN'T" Ginny yelled excitedly causing those around them to look at the exchange. Ginny place the box on the table taking the lid off it, revealing a black and white, year old cat. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Mikayla she's gorgeous." Ginny wrapped Mikayla into another hug, "no problem Ginny, she doesn't have a name yet so think of something good." The whole Weasley clan has now been closing in on the girls before they see a cute cat. All suggesting normal cat names, "What about Alina?" Ron suggests making everyone look at him weirdly, "It's Mikayla's middle name..." he spoke awkwardly, Mikayla smiled at him sweetly, "I love it!" Ginny smiled picking up the cat. "Alina" the cat purred soothingly, "I think she likes it." Mr Weasley smiled as he whispered to Mikayla, she chuckled a little agreeing with him. "Oh, Mikayla these are my other sons, William and Charlie." Molly introduced, she shook hands with both of them, she goes to William first. "We've heard a lot about you. You can call me Bill though, William is too formal." Bill smiles, Mikayla turns to Charlie and shakes his hand, "Nice to put a face to the girl who's got my brother head over heels for her." Mikayla looked at Charlie confused, "He means Fred." Ginny whispers making Mikayla blush. Mikayla and Charlie talked for a while about his career and Hogwarts, they got on really well, "I'm hoping to try out next time there's an opening, myself but that could be years so I'm not holding my breath." Mikayla laughs, the get interrupted by Ginny asking Mikayla to play. "I'll only be singing ten songs, Ginny. And some are originals, is that alright?" Mikayla asks as she is led to a little stage outside. "That's perfect." She beamed before leaving Mikayla where she was with a lot of instruments. Fred joined her on stage and helped her set everything up, "Thanks Freddie!" She smiled widely before she tapped the microphone. "Hello everyone, as you know we are celebrating Ginny's birthday and she asked me to perform a couple of songs. So, yeah. Here I go." Mikayla spoke awkwardly but got everyone's attention.
