Ella stared at the room that was supposedly hers for the time she'd be living with her grandparents .

It was small ,but she liked it . Except for the many frilly girly pink material that covered the bed and the windows.

"This was your mother's room ", Rachel Morgan speaks up from behind her ," she used to love pink  ".

" I don't mind pink ", Ella says ," it's the frilly girly stuff that I don't like ".

Her grandmother smiles at that comment .She didn't like frilly girly stuff either .

" I'll bring you another bedcover and tomorrow we can hang up the curtains that matches , but if you're looking at the room then you might as well come meet our neighbours ,Chief Swan and his daughter who'd arrived just a few days ago  from Phoenix ,Arizona , poor girl is a little on the shy side she'd started school yesterday ,must be hard going to  a new school when you're not really a socialite  ".

" Yes , Grandmother ", Ella says  with resignation . She would have to please her grandparents sometimes . She wasn't in the mood to meet the neighbours yet , really.

She follows her grandmother downstairs to the living room where two  brunette's sat talking to her grandfather who hadn't spoken much to her since he and Rachel had come to see her in the hospital.

Well ,the male of the two brunettes spoke to her grandfather . The girl who looked barely seventeen or sixteen just sat fiddling with her jacket's lapel .

They both stand up when Rachel and Ella appears in the doorway .

" Hello, you must be Rachella ? , I'm Charlie Swan and this is Bella, my daughter ", the man speaks giving her a small smile as he holds his hand out to her .

Taking his hand Ella shakes it quickly before letting go and looking at Bella .

Atleast it's not Bellatrix Lestranges,she thinks as she holds her hand out to the  female brunette that was a good bit taller than herself .

" I'm Ella ", she says ," Rachella is just the name my parents named me ".

Bella Swan smiles at her before taking her hand and shaking it .

" Will you be going to school here?", she asks  sounding hopeful.

Ella is about to answer when her grandfather interrupts " Of course she'll be going to school , Bella ".

Ella gapes at him in shock and can't even find words to protest against that .

She was nineteen for crying out loud. Nineteen and she didn't need to go to school anymore .

         💧☔☔☔💧
"You can't be serious,Ella ! ",Harry protested over the Phone when she calls him to tell him about her grandfather's sudden decision to send her to school ," you're already doing through the post courses to get your N.E.W.T's since we haven't been in Hogwarts for that ".

"I know ,Harry , but I'm trying to get to know my grandparents and what's a little school time going to do ?, As far as the N.E.W.T's are concerned I haven't gotten any books yet , I think the owls who was supposed to bring them had gotten lost somewhere ".

" Oh , that's nice,blame it on the owls now , would you ,Ella, ...look, I don't want to argue ,but what's the point in going to school in a Muggle school anyway ? They can't teach you much now can they?, I miss you ,Ella, I need you here with me where I know you'd be safe . "

He sounded so hopeless that Ella almost gave up on her decision to stay with her grandparents and go to school with Bella Swan . Not that it had been her decision from the word Go . She just wanted to feel like a normal kid again even if she was nineteen and the time for being a kid was long gone .
