Hogwarts RPG Name:
Aiden Everett
Third Year
Default

"I know," Abbie giggled bluntly when Callie called her cute. Addison eyes his sister warily from where he stood, next to his mother.

Aiden's mother, Amelia, was usually a rather strict woman. But her impatient quality sometimes overruled it; obviously, the woman didn't want to wait around long for the children to greet each other with small talk. "Aiden," the woman said quietly to her oldest son.


Aiden turned at the sound of his mother's voice addressing him. He little boy took a few steps towards her, leaving Abbie the closest Everett to the group. "What, Mum?" he asked, his voice purposefully sounding more adorable than usual. Aiden was hoping his mother was going to say something good.

"We're going to go now. I don't have time to wait around; I was supposed to drop Amy off at Grandma and Grandpa's ten minutes ago." Amy was another of Aiden's sisters - she was ten.

"Really?!" Aiden squealed. "Thanks! I'll be good, I promise." The little boy giggled. "Tell Amy to have fun!" Then, the eleven-year-old rolled his eyes. He knew exactly what his grandparents were doing. They were his mother's parents, muggles. And at about this time when Aiden himself was ten, they'd insisted on having him come stay with them for a month.

Of course, the time spent there wasn't filled with any of Aiden's usual activities. It had seemed to him like they were trying to push the magic out of him by forcing him to act like a muggle, rather than a wizard. And then, before he'd left, they'd actually talked to him about it! His grandparents had tried telling him that he shouldn't come to Hogwarts.

Aiden couldn't even imagine how his life would be different if he'd listened to them. He wouldn't be standing here, at Issy's house, for one.

"Oh, I will," Amelia laughed.

"Your suitcase is inside." The woman had left it there after stepping out of the green-flamed fireplace. "I love you; come home whenever you want."

"Abbie, it's time to go!" Mum said. The six-year-old girl turned away from the older kids, who she was fascinated by.

"Fine," the girl grumbled.

Addison handing the still-squirming Minkus to Aiden before muttering a quick good-bye. Abbie didn't even address her brother as she left him for a month.


Once his family was back inside Issy's house, the short boy hopped down the stairs and stood in his circle of friends. A huge grin was on his face.
