"No...Because a bigger trunk will only make it heavier and everything will wind up all messy," Celeste said with a shake of her head. She had no doubt her daughters trunk would be a royal disaster when she returned home from Hogwarts at the end of the year. But for now she would make sure the girl’s belongings were neatly organized so she can find everything she needed for class. "And as I've told you many times magic isn’t to be used for everything you mustn't rely on it.” Gideon looked over as his dad came up from his lab. He raised an eyebrow as he noticed the older man's wide eyes having no clue what they were for seeing as he had forgotten what still resided upon his head. "Hey dad," Gideon said reading his father. Just then he heard a knock on the front door and look to it before looking at Damien. "I’ll get it,” he said with a shrug, putting his glass down on the counter and moving to open the door. The boy couldn't help but smile as he noticed Selina standing there, his smile faltering slightly at the sight of a man who could only be his girlfriend's father. “Um… Hello Mr. Skylar… Selina," he said trying to decide what else to say, the older man being slightly intimidating. He then realized one thing he could do stepping back and opening the door further. "Please come in," Gideon instructed motioning for them to enter the house and towards the living room. He couldn't help but swallowed nervously as he exchanged glances with Selina. Her dropping in was one thing, a surprise for sure but he was least warned that she would make an appearance. Her father on the other hand completely took them off guard and at the closing the door behind them waited for the response.
Seeing his reflection in the window of the door he quickly removed the half from his head trying not to color and embarrassment as he realized he must've been seen with it. Hopefully he would get by without too much trouble about it. If not Kacie would hear about it after dinner. Quote:

Isn't there a spell to make things light as a feather," Kacie replied, just about proving her mothers point that she probably would rely on magic a lot, at least for now. She was so excited that she had a wand, so she couldn't wait to start learning spells. It was a shame that students was not allowed to use magic outside of school. "I'll try not to use magic for everything, but I can't make any promises though," she teased, but before she could receive one of her mothers warning looks she grinned. "Just kidding mom. I won't abuse magic."
Kacie sat down on the bed as she started folding some of her clothes and putting it neatly in her trunk with her mothers help. Like any girl she had a lot of clothes and it was difficult trying pick what she wanted to take. When she saw her mom folding up one of her gown pajamas she scrunched up her face. "I don't want to take that one, just the pants ones." Like his son Damien grabbed a cookie, well a few cookies. Since Celeste was upstairs helping Kacie pack, it was safe to grab more than one before dinner. He heard the knock just as Gideon did, more than happy to let his son get it because he was know to scared visitors away with his cold and piercing gaze. However, he did follow behind Gideon out the kitchen to see who it was to be on the safe side. When he heard Gideon greet who it was, he continued his way to the family study. The only terrible thing about heading there was that he had to pass by the door and Gideon had just opened it and invited the visitors in.
The redhead grinned when Gideon opened the door. It was really nice to see him and by the look on his face he was glad to see her as well. That was until his green eyes caught sight of the man standing beside Selina in the doorway. She looked at her father then back at Gideon and pierced her lips awkwardly. Well this was awkward. Then Selina turned back to her father and gave him an expectant look as if to signal it was his cue to leave. Her father did promise to just drop her off once he saw someone was at the house, but Gideon had to go and invite him in. Why did he have to give her father an okay to enter his house? Although, it was not like it was Gideon's fault anyway, she had just sort of dropped in. However, to be fair she did warn him she was going to do that, besides it was the middle of August and she had only seen him once. She had ran into him once that summer but Kacie had sort of interrupted into that conversation. Jake nodded at the boy when he invited him into his home and said his name courteously in a manner which signaled a hello in Jake's mind. He had to give the boy some brownie points. In no way was he being a pompous teenage boy like he had assumed he would be. The kid, if he could, was earning some serious brownie points with Jake. Although he did stop and stare at the hat that was on his head for a moment. What in Merlin's name was on that boy's head.
As he stepped through the doorway, he said over his shoulder to the boy that he had passed in his stride, "Don't mind if I do, boy. Nice of you to let Selina come over." As he made his way through the door he saw a man who was making his way past the door with piercing blue eyes. He nodded at the man, "Hello Mr. Gert I am assuming?" Once he was inside the house he looked around the living room for a few moments trying to access what sort of people the Gerts were. As he finished surveying the area he turned around to look at the two.
She could tell that Gideon was not so comfortable with the fact that her father was in the house with her. If anything she should have warned him that Jake was dropping her off, but to be honest did he think that she would just apparate here? He knew that she was not old enough to do so. However, she could not muster up the energy to say that to him. It was just really nice to see him after almost two months besides their short conversation with Kacie. So while her father's back was turned she scampered up to him, leaned up on her tip toes and gave him a quick kiss. As her heels settled back into the ground she whispered to him, "Well come on..." and with that she walked over to join her father who was just turning around having missed the whole interaction.
When she reached her father she said sweetly, "Well Daddy, I'm fine and safe. You can head home now." Jake who had just missed the quick moment between his daughter and her boyfriend looked down at his little miss who was being very sweet, which was a warning sign in his head, and said, "Not so fast young lady." He turned to Gideon and said, "Your parents are going to around all day, yes?" Because he did not trust him alone with his daughter. It was probably the hat that set him off.
