 Potter’s Princess A+ FangGirl
Now that Willow was there, Melly was almost one hundred per cent sure that the next time she spoke to Copernicus she'd still have little to say about Beedle. Sigh. Oh well, there was always a good side to that, which was that she could always ask him to tell her the stories himself. Hmm... He looked like the kind of person who was good at storytelling. Hmmhmm, she definitely wanted to hear him.
Without a second thought, she closed the book on her hands to look properly at Willow, though one couldn't really say that she was looking that properly when the girl's eyes were sparkly, a good proof of how her mind had drifted away.
"I see," She smiled, though she was half sad to hear her friend's answer. After all, she had hoped Willow had forgotten her aversion to books. It seemed like that hope had been in vain. Oh, but she knew that once she convinced the girl to read Thumbelina, Willow too would learn to love books. Yes, she would. But before she started her task, she would have to listen to what Willow was saying. When she did, her lips formed a surprised 'O'. "Was it?," She blushed embarrassedly. "I overslept that day," She murmured, suddenly finding her feet rather interesting to study. "I didn't make it to class." And how she wished she had. Ugh. She had missed a lesson on taaaales! So what if they weren't her favorite ones? They were still stories! Pout. She'd have to stop reading until three a.m. and end up not going to class.
At the sound of her best friend's name, Melina's previous thoughts vanished as she looked up at Willow, completely dumbfounded. Had Willow said something? "I'm sorry, I didn't -" But what was she looking at? Blinking, she turned her head around and followed her friend's gaze.
"JUNI!," She beamed, trying her hardest to keep her tone hushed. However, she didn't manage to keep it as a whisper. Instead, she let out a muffled squeak. She didn't quite realize it, though, for soon enough she had her hand outstretched, as if waiting for her friend to come closer and hold it.
Wasn't that just great? She was in one of her favorite places with two friends of hers! Now, if only Issy was there too...
__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |
