It was too early for movement.

She sighed and threw her blanket over her head. Her feet thrashed about under her blankets as she squealed trying to shake the morning out of her limbs. Once she felt comfortable enough to get out of bed she flipped out of bed with a thud on the floor. That did NOT go as well as she had hoped.

Slowly she slipped on her slippers and stomped down the stairs into the kitchen. On the table was a tray of pancakes and bacon. She ignored the letter sitting on the table and went straight to eating. Where was Violet? Ah well there was food to worry about.

The piece of bacon fell on top of the parchment and she went to pick it up when her eyes finally registered what was sitting on the table. It was a letter from Hogwarts and she brushed it off. Most likely it was her letter detailing what she had to buy for the upcoming term. When she heard it hit the table it made an unusual loud thunk. She eyed the letter and opened it.. inside was her Captain badge with a letter asking her to be captain from Professor Bentley.

"CHRIS! VIOLET!" She ran out to the lake where she saw the two talking and jumped up and down, "LOOK WHAT I GOT!!!"
Christopher was finally talking to Violet. Yes, they had agreed to at the dance a few months ago, but of course that hadn't happened. So this was the first time they'd had a real conversation in months. And it felt really nice.

Just as Violet was about to respond to his apology, Selina came out in her pajamas, screaming bloody murder. Of course. Selina interrupted things a lot, even though her intentions were good. "Merlin, Selina, what's wrong!?" He assumed that she was about to yell at him a bit more as she had done in Madame Malkin's the previous morning. But when she told him her actual news, a huge grin split onto his face.

Standing up, Christopher jumped up and ran towards his sister without a thought. Wrapping the tiny ginger into a hug, he said with a laugh, "Oh my goodness.. Selina! That's wonderful! Congratulations!" Beaming down at his sister, he laughed at the proud expression on her face. "You know... I'm thinking about joining the team..."
