"I know, it's been like forever Sely!" When Selina pulled out all of the letters that she sent to her Violet gasped and covered her mouth. Then she reached into her clutch and pulled out the letters that she received from Selina, which she chose to hold them together by a light purple ribbon. "I know right! It's been absolute torture!"
Emmeline watched Violet and Selina and she could do was smile. The both of them together were just too sweet! Never did she imagine that Violet could become so close with someone in only one year. Emmeline was then distracted when she saw Sophie waving at her, Emmeline raised her hand and returned the gesture with a sweet smile. She then noticed Sophie's sudden of shock, which made Emmeline very confused for a moment until she met where Sophie's eyes had traveled....Violet's luggage. Emmeline then raised her hand pointing her finger saying,"I know Soph, I know it's a lot...I told Vi to only pack the essentials, I must have told her about a dozen times, but this is what she came up with.."
After Violet hugged Selina her eyes caught Sophie's reaction to her luggage, 14 bags. She then heard Selina's reaction and in response she smiled sweetly and replied in a bright tone,"Umm.. heh heh..Yeah it is..Umm...I tend to...How do I pu it...Over-pack?" Violet giggled nervously and then fluttered her eyelashes making herself look as cute as possible. She smiled and then shrugged her shoulders. "And about half of my luggage has an....expansion charm in it.." Once again she ended her sentence with a sweet smile.
Sophie was so shocked that when Emmeline returned her comment Sophie could not even formulate sentences. All of this luggage was for Violet? Every last suitcase was for the small blonde girl next to her daughter? It wasn't possible. One human being could not have that many clothes.
Then Sophie chose to listen to the back half of what Emmeline was saying. Upon tuning in she heard that Violet packed lightly. If that was lightly she would hate to see what heavy was. In fact Sophie wasn't sure where Violet put all of her clothes. By just looking at her under-packing Sophie had to figure that the Le Veela home had to be quite large. And Sophie's house was large, but their house had to be something else entirely.
"Wait? This is her light packing? She knows that she is only staying for a month right? Violet isn't moving in with us... wait! She isn't moving in with us... is she Ms. Selina Arden Skylar?"
Selina was too busy trying to breath properly when her mother cautioned her about her friends objective at Whitley to even respond. Only after deep breaths for two minutes could Selina whisper, "No... no, not that I know about. This is just a lot of..." But then Violet finally peeped up. Selina was ready for a rational explanation. All she received was that this packing had more to it!
"An expansion charm? A bloody expansion charm? Violet! You aren't going to be here long enough to wear all of those clothes. In fact... I don't think you could wear all of those clothes in a life time. That's a lot of fabric."
Sophie yelled at her daughter and moved to smack her upside the head, "Selina! What did I tell you about that word? Ladies don't say bloody! Especially in front of guests! Just because you're an athlete now doesn't mean you get to talk like a boy!"
"Don't bring Quidditch into this!"
Ignoring Selina, Sophie turned back to Emmeline and said, "I am so sorry for her behavior. We, um, would be delighted to accommodate Violet in whatever means necessary. We want her to feel comfortable here. After all my daughter is sure to have her all muddy for Quidditch everyday and that is punishment enough." Sophie laughed, "Seriously though darling. You have a lot of clothes."
