She ahd made soo many friends and Fee was happy to say good by to at leas some of them. Next term all of them were returning but still there were weeks of seperation between.
"Ohh a Slytherin cookie",she said stunned,"you are such a baking genius."
Fee admired Kurumi for that.She wished she would be as good as her friend when it came to cooking or baking.Fee was a totally mess in the kitchen.
"I actually caan",she admitted,"time passed sooo quickly."
It honestly didnt feel like a year,more than a few weeks and yet so many things had happend during this year. Fee had grown up a little and she was more independent.
"Ohh Rubies is coming with me to Germany and i am going to visit Rex at Jasons",she explained,"what about you?"
Fee wanted to see her boyfriend as well but if he didnt show up thex couldnt talk about it...
Fee certainly seemed a lot more cheerful than the last time they had really sat down to chat. Perhaps the events at the end of the year and the costume ball had something to do with it. Her and Edmond really did look like something out of one of her childhood fairy tale books as they danced. Meanwhile, Kurumi was in crisis having eaten a cake spiked with a growing solution.
"
Adam will come visit me in Japan and I am planning on spending some time at his home, probably before the term starts so we can go to Diagon Alley together," she smiled. She hadn't really thought that much about the holiday outside of finally being able to talk with her brothers about magic and Hogwarts. That in itself was enough to make her want to burst. "
Probably do some studying as well..." she admitted holding up her textbook and guidebook about studying for ones O.W.L.s.

"Yeah, I can't believe we made it!" Cass exclaimed as she took the floating cookie in her hand. Then she took a small bite of the delicious cookie while trying to recall what her plans for the summer were. "Uh. I think I'm supposed to meet my cousin's new victim - ah, I mean boyfriend." She said
"
Victim?" Kurumi repeated hugging her book to her chest. Sometimes, Cass' joking tone went in one ear and out the other for Kurumi. "I
s your cousin a...dark wizard?" She half whispered that last bit at the grip around her book tightened a bit more.

"It looks too good to eat." he added as he carefully turned it over and back again. Its true, it looked more fitting in a glass case than in chunks down his gullet. "How'd you get to be so good at this? You got a special spell when you bake or something?" Because all her creations looks so awesome!
Was he...almost crying over her cookie? That would certainly have been a first, but also a little awkward to see a 4th year, now 5th year she supposed, crying over a cookie with a fondant snake on it. "
You're welcome," she smiled back blushing a bit more.
"
My mother taught me how to bake. It was probably the only thing she made me do that I actually enjoyed doing." Kurumi's mother had been overpowering and overprotective of her in more ways than one. From 3 hours daily piano lessons to forcing her to wear brown colored contacts to hide her violet eyes, Kurumi never felt real genuine joy with her mother outside of baking. Perhaps that is why she did it so much. It was the only time that she really felt connected with her mother.
"
No magic," she said shaking her head and tossing her long ebony locks around a bit as she did. "
I just can't bring myself to use magic when I bake even though I have studied it now. I grew up doing everything by hand...I guess doing it that way keeps me grounded..." If that made any sense. Nothing she had seen or done at Hogwarts seemed like something that would keep her grounded. Everything was some fantastic adventure that led her to different worlds and realities.
