Sitting by the Fire (Miles)

[annabella]

Annabella was so excited for joy when she got back from the Forbidden Forest. She walked well actually she ran back into the Common Room. She was looking for Miles. First she ran to his dorm and couldn’t find him. She was a bit sad on that. She ran to her dorm and grabbed her pajamas and went to take a shower before bed. She dried her wet hair as much as she can and got dressed into her pajamas. The pajama bottoms was navy blue with white clouds and her top was plain navy blue which looked good with her coloring of skin tone. She was quite happy though that Sevvie had asked her to the school dance.

Making her way down to the Common Room she sat down in front of the fire and she felt better as well. She wasn’t as hyper as she was when she first came into the common room. Her cheeks were though pink from excitement and was really happy that she finally having her dream come true. She couldn’t believe it that she had to pinch herself a few times and she knew it. She wished she didn’t but hey when you think you are dreaming you have to do anything to make yourself believe it.

She bounced up and down on the oversize couch she was sitting on. Pulling her damp hair into a messy bun she sat there waiting for her big brother Miles to come through that door. She was still a bit excited but a bit more calmed down. She still had to owl her sister to see if she would help her find a dress that she would like. She doesn’t mind the color of dress. She really wants a silver dress though but it doesn’t really matter if it ends up being navy blue with a pink ribbon. She was quite glad though and she couldn’t wait. “Come on Miles!” she whispered a bit.

[Miles Bletchley, Jr.]

Miles hadn’t been at the school all day. He woke up about six and just felt like leaving, so he took the knight bus into muggle London and managed to pa*s off as an adult to take a plane out of England. To pay for the tickets, he just stole from rich muggles. They didn’t deserve the money anyways. He’d been wandering around France all day, thinking about taking Rehema there on vacation one day. He would have to steal again as he had no money, but he figured that she would have a good time and that was what mattered. Maybe he’ll ask his sisters to come with him. Sev could come, too, to keep Bella company. Miles knew that she liked him and he’d heard rumors that he was going to ask her to the ball. He was glad that Sev will take her. There wasn’t anybody else he’d trust with his sister.

He was back on the airplane, sitting in coach, taking a bit of a nap. He had tried to order a drink, but apparently, the stewardess’ thought that he was eighteen. They said he was too young. Well, he was too young to be flying alone, too, but he was. Miles wasn’t stupid enough to say that out loud though. He could only imagine what they would do if they did find that out. Nothing would be able to keep him. They were stupid muggles and he was a wizard, even if he was still in school. Miles knew enough spells to get by. When you were from an evil family, you learned the spells you used more before school. At least his dad taught him all about the unforgivables and dueling. He couldn’t talk about the others, but at least Miles Bletchley sr. had made sure his son was ready.

Finally the airplane landed and he walked to an area that looked almost like a ghost town and he hailed the knight bus. This would take him to the leaky cauldron and from there, he would go to Hogsmeade and Hogwarts. By the time he was back at school, he was exhausted. Miles didn’t even feel like taking a shower. He decided that he would take one in the morning. He also needed a shave again. Facial hair was itchy and annoying him, otherwise he would keep it. He yawned as he walked into the common room and collapsed on the couch, never even noticing that his sister was there.

Annabella heard a yawn in the common room and saw her big brother walk in. "So you finally decided to show up?" she asked her brother for a moment. "Had a nice tiring day?" she asked him with a small smile. She hadn't seen her brother for a long time and yes she did worry about him everyonce in a while. She starred at him for a moment trying to figure out what was going on in his head.

"Oh you can't believe what happened today!" she said deciding she was going to tell him anyways and without giving him a chance to say a thing she just smiled a beam. "I just got asked to the dance by what I call the hottest guy in the whole entire school." she said with a smile on her face. "Yes that's right Albus Severus Potter had asked me Annabella Hazelle Bletchley to the house unity dance. I don't mind we will ever get more than that just as long I get one whole entire school dance with him." she said with a beaming smile on her face.

She looked at her brother for a moment. "Who are you taking to the dance?" she asked him for a moment. "And isn't Rehema in Hufflepuff too so who are you going to take?" she asked him and then she thought of an idea. "I know why don't you take Jessica Scamander! She is only a year older than me and she's in Ravenclaw and well I don't think she has been asked by anybody. You should totlally ask her Miles!" she said with a smile on her face.

Miles looked over at his sister when she spoke to him. “I’ve been in France all day. I woke up at six and went straight to the airport. I went on a whim. I felt like leaving England. Maybe next time, I’ll take you.” Though he knew that wasn’t going to happen. Next time he went, he was going to take Rehema. With everything that had happened, she was the person that deserved to go. He actually should’ve taken her today, but she hadn’t been around when he left. “So I’d say it was a very tiring day.”

Her energy was exhausting him and he yawned again. Though he was a little curious about what happened to her, he wished that she didn’t exhibit so much excitement over it. Then she said that Albus asked her to the dance and he understood her excitement. Like everyone, he knew that she loved him. Miles didn’t think anything would come of it. Potter was a good guy, but he was older than her by three years or so. He couldn’t see him asking her out again. “That’s great! But make sure you don’t get your hopes up. There’s a lot of competition for Albus these days, since Callie left him.”

He had already decided not to go. Remmy was a hufflepuff, as well, so there’s no point in going. He couldn’t ask the girl that he loved and she was the only girl that he wanted. He wasn’t going to cheat on her by going with another girl, especially Scamander. She was neutral and showed no interest in the gang. Miles wouldn’t be seen with her. Besides, he was a little afraid of Lorcan. “Not going to happen. I’m not going. Remmy is the only girl I want to go with and since I can’t, I’m not going.”
