"Mum wished there was a way to cheer you up, and I made you laugh, I'm a genie." Mikayla blushed as she continued to beam brightly. "wait, how did mum know I was upset?" Ron looks at her as if she asked a stupid question, "I don't know maybe it was Bill dropping off four tubs of mint chocolate ice cream that gave it away." Mikayla's cheeks turned pink and hot at Ron's explanation, "well in that case, let's get a tub each and play a game of Wizards Chess." Ron jumped to his fact at the announcement of Mikayla's plan, he helps her up, quickly ushering her towards the house making her laugh at his excitement as he dragged her by her left hand.. Molly smiled as the two teens arrive in the kitchen, "two tubs of ice-cream and two spoons please." Mikayla asked as Ron ran upstairs to get his and Mikayla's chess pieces from their rooms. "You seem happier.." Molly comments as she puts the tubs of ice cream and spoons on the kitchen table. "Ron gave me a few words of wisdom and cheered me up with a joke." Mikayla admits the truth just as Ron arrived with the sets of chess pieces. "Ready to lose?" Ron asked Mikayla as she picked the ice-cream off the table, "puh-lease, I'm about to mop the board with you." Mikayla laughed following Ron into the sitting room.
Mikayla lost 4/5 of the games she played against Ron, she believes she only won that one game at the end because Ron pitied her for how terrible she was playing. "Alright I'm going to head up and do something I'm actually good at." Mikayla announces as she stood, Avery joined the pair in the sitting room, "I'll play a few matches against you Ron. Ginny's up in the room thinking about doing some song writing if you want to help her." Mikayla nodded giving her sister a smile of appreciation, "yeah, that's exactly what I want to do. Have fun." Mikayla rushed up the stairs to Ginny sitting on her bed, strumming her old guitar, "hey Gin, mind if I join you for some song writing?" Mikayla asks as she closes the bedroom door, "that would be great thanks." Mikayla nodded putting her instruments on or next to her bed, "what are you think the song should be about?" Ginny smiles as she racks her brains for ideas, "crushes resurfacing..." Mikayla nodded agreeing with the red head's topic of choice. "How a crush just, ya know, messes with you head because they're all you can think about." Ginny adds, Mikayla nods pulling out her keyboard in front of her, "do we want this to be really upbeat or similar to a ballad?" She questions as she grabs her song book, quill and ink. "a mix of both, like it'll sound good either way." Mikayla nods as she thinks of a unique melody for the song. "We'll focus on the ballad format and then later on we can add the four beat etc on it."
"Right you play the melody. We'll try to come up with lyrics that match the topic at hand." Ginny tells Mikayla once they agree on the melody, Mikayla plays the introduction instrumental, before Ginny begins with the lyrics. "Only think about him on the weekdays." "and weekends" Mikayla adds, "Only in the mornings," Ginny continues before Mikayla chips in again, "and evenings." Ginny smiles before singing the next line that pops into her mind, "Only when I wake up" "and sleep in," Mikayla adds before stopping the melody whilst Ginny writes the lyrics into Mikayla's songbook, "oh the next part should be, "oh my God." Like a realisation on how much this boy crosses my mind." Mikayla agrees with Ginny's train of thought.
After a hour of messing around with lyrics, Ginny and Mikayla had finished writing, 'Stupid'. Ginny told the blonde that she was going to go collect the chicken eggs for Molly because she wanted it for desert, for their family dinner tonight. Mikayla stayed on her bed and began writing a song about overcoming Fergal's control, since everyone will know in September about what she's been through, she thought that writing a song would give her something to think about and distract herself when she's getting sympathy looks. Mikayla grabbed her guitar, picking it as her main instrument for the melody and began strumming the guitar as lyrics popped into her head, "This is a story that I have never told, I gotta get this off my chest to let it go, I need to take back the light inside you stole..."
Once Mikayla was finished song writing, she was joined by Mr Fred Weasley, "hey, dinner is ready." He informs her, "oh great, thanks for coming to get me." He nods awkwardly, "after dinner, do you think you'd be will to talking with me? I need to tell you something." Fred sighs, looking away from Mikayla for a few moments before looking back at her, "yeah sure, ok." A small smile plays on Mikayla's lips as she passes by the tall redhead on her way downstairs for dinner. As she lets Fred downstairs she bumps into Avery, "oh you finally came cleaned about your fe-" Mikayla slapped a hand on Avery's mouth to prevent her from finishing her sentence, sending her a threatening look, her eyes widen once realisation swam behind them. Mikayla slowly lowered her hand, "let's go get dinner." Mikayla links arms with Avery and the pair rushed downstairs, "when?" Avery whispered, "after dinner." They sat down next to each other across from Bill and Charlie.
"How are you still hungry?" Bill questions with a laugh, "I only ate one tub." Mikayla responded as if she's barely eaten, Bill chuckles shaking his head in disbelief, "I don't hear you questioning Ron on how he's still hungry," she shot at him, "that's because Ron is an endless pit and is constantly hungry." Charlie reminds the blonde of Ron's ways, "touché." Mikayla smiles before piling her roast beef onto her plate.
After dinner Mikayla led Fred to her favourite place in the Weasley's garden, the Oak Tree. The pair sat down, Mikayla sat with her legs crossed as she turns her body towards Fred. She drew in a deep breath, closing her eyes as she did so, letting her worry fade away. "I haven't been completely honest with you, about why I couldn't be with you." Mikayla's voice trembled as she spoke, "the truth is I'm afraid of falling in love... Afraid to be heart broken again... and afraid that I'll get you hurt."
