She knew that more than anyone being that she was an Auror for many years before she moved to Australia. It was never something she liked doing so why others were so enthralled to resort to violence baffled her. It was none of her business though, she was just going to relax on her couch and wait for her daughter to get home along with Christopher and Elyon.

Jake had been very specific this year about wanting to pick Selina up from the station. She had a strong feeling it had something to do with Selina's boyfriend, which she knew he had nothing to fret about. She was fourteen years old. The worst thing that Selina could do at this point was awkwardly kiss a boy. And knowing her daughter... it was awkward indeed. Besides, from the letters Gideon seemed nice enough.

It was not her problem though. Jake was a big boy and could handle this situation. She was just going to put her feet up, relax and wait for summer to begin because Merlin knew she needed a summer vacation.


.....................

There was a pop. Selina and Christopher and Elyon and Jake all apparated onto the plot of land called Whitley Hall. Selina's hand flew to her glasses to make sure that she had not lost them on her way in the middle of infinite space. Or something to the affect of that.

She finally got her wits about her she got a good look at Whitley Hall. Merlin she had missed this place, but she did love Hogwarts. This summer was going to be weird.

She turned around and looked at her family, well her father and her two friends, and said, "Alright you lot, stop standing around. Come on... let's get inside and see Mum."
Heaving his and his actual younger sister's trunks over his bony shoulders, Christopher was glad to be back here. It was technically his new home, even though Hogwarts would be the only true place he could call home. It was so weird to think it was summer again already. Where did the time ago?

He rolled his eyes at his bossy best friend, a smile etched on his face. Glancing back at Mr. Skylar, he wondered how he dealt with her bossing him around like that all of the time. He was the adult, not her! But then again, he put up with it year round, and he figured it wasn't about to change anytime soon. But who would Selina be if she wasn't trying to take control of everything? Not the girl he knew.

"Oh hush, we're coming," he teased, following her through the open door. He set the heavy bags and owl cage on the ground, and turned around to greet his new maternal figure for the next three months. "Hello, Mrs. Skylar. It's nice to see you... How was Australia?" She worked in Australia, right? He could've sworn that was right, anyway.
