Of course knowing the young girl all to well, who would put off packing to the last minute and end up forgetting things at home. Alright, I'm coming," she called back, huffing and puffing all the way to her room. Can't we just make the trunk bigger with a spell and just stuff everything inside. It'll save a lot of time, that way we don't have to fold everything."

Damien made his way up from the basement, needing a snack himself. He had been up since 5am that morning working on a potion, which put him in a semi bad mood because he had to wake up that early. He headed into the kitchen only to find his son there already, snacking on a cookie and some milk. One look at the silly hat on Gideon's head had him stop dead in his tracks, his blue eyes wide as he looked at his son. He just shook his head, not sure he wanted to even ask why he was wearing that hate.

Although she was not always a firm believer in the rules he never specified that she was not allowed to date, so in her mind that was a free pass to do whatever she pleased. If he wanted her to stay three years old forever he should have put that in fine print. Even if he did she wasn't even sure if she would listen to him on that.

Gideon was a nice guy. Sure, he had a bit of an angry streak in him, but Selina would rather stick needles in her eyes than hang out with someone who was so agreeable. Selina herself had a temper that was befitting of her red hair. If she hung out with someone, much less dated someone, who was very nice and pleasant all hours of everyday... well there was no way she would do that. She liked the fact that Gideon challenged her even if she was better on the pitch than he was in her mind; she liked the fact that he was not super romantic and overly sweet with her; she liked the fact that they were friends first before anything else that they were. So her father needed to calm down, she was not doing anything overly dumb.

"I'm assuming, but this is just a wild guess, that he is most likely in his house, Da," she said sarcastically.

Jake rose his eyebrow and looked down at his daughter. She cracked him a smile to let him know that she was just joking and he poked her lightly in the head, "Har de har har. Very funny miss. Obviously, was just wondering why he is not here to meet you and sweep you off your feet like some dumb valiant knight."

Selina's cheeks flushed ever so slightly at the mention of the valiant knight comment. If only her father knew the significance of the whole knight comment. It had been an on going joke since she and Gideon had first met that he was some knight of Gryffindor. Of course, her father did not need to know that. No doubt he would tear the mickey out of her about the whole nickname thing.

She swallowed her blush because Selina Arden Skylar was not a blush type of person and punched her Dad in the shoulder, "Oh shove it. Stop being such a crabby head." With that she walked the rest of the distance to the Gert abode and waited for her Dad to join her. Once he stood beside her she looked to her father who then knocked on the door.
