"Awww! No fair!" Casey whined. However, despite is protests he remained standing where he was. A couple of nauseating moments later Conni reappeared outside Lily's and Lewis's house and knocked nervously on the door.
"I have no idea who he is, all I know is he exists. I saw her and him a couple of weeks back. At least I assume he's her boyfriend, I don't really think of her as the type to kiss random guys though. She doesn't know I know." "Fine." Casey mumbled pulling himself to his feet. "I honestly wonder how I'M the younger brother you know." Ben muttered to Micky and Ronan.
Dee jumped out of the cubicle, pulling her bag out behind her. She dumped the rucksack by her feet, which were covered in a pair of battered looking black school shoes. Her blank, black tie hanging around her shoulders. After a moment she started to fight with it, trying to figure out the way to do it up.
"NEVER!" Came Casey's voice from the floor below. "He's so immature." Elle cackled. After another moment of standing in disbelief as she gazed into the mirror she slipped on her trainers and ran downstairs. Grabbing her keys that rested on the side table near the door and darting out the door. Clumsily she fumbled with the keys as she tried to lock it. When she finally managed to lock the house up she closed her eyes in concentration and disaperated into thin air.
"Good." Dee replied as she pulled her socks up. "I don't want to get eaten by a squid before I even get into a House." She giggled. "I'm coming out now Maria." She said before reaching for the latch on the 'bathroom' door.
"You know she has a boyfriend right?" "What?" Casey wimpered, looking pathetically at Lyra with big green puppy dog eyes.
"My brother is just too energetic for his own good, no?" Elle giggled. Once Conni had finally rediscovered how to apply make-up in a way that both suited her and worked with her rather Gothic clothing she brushed her fringe back into her face to comeplete the look. Now, rather then her attractive but classy look she had adopted in her maturity she was back to her teenage fashion ways. In fact, she looked just like she did in her fourth year. Only the scars on her arms were much duller and she still had the 'tramp stamp' tattoo she'd ended up with after a drunken night out with Lily when she was eighteen or so years old.
"You only just figure that out?" Ben exclaimed, roaring with laughter at how Casey was behaving. Casey's behaviour that was inspiring such hilarity was that he was sitting in a corner poking a rock with a random stick that he had discovered nearby. "Sure, laugh at me. My own wife doesn't trust me!" He whined loudly. "Well from what I've heard Immy's far closer to marriage then I am."
"It's not you I'm worried about..." Dee muttered quietly to herself as she finished tucking her school shirt into her skirt and pulled the jumper on over her head. "Is it true there's a giant squid in the lake?" She asked in a louder voice, sounding rather worried.
Elle giggled, and looked over towards where her brother and his wife had been standing. However she only just caught sight of her oldest brother tearing down the corridor. "You're nuts you know! Barking mad!" She laughed. Casey continued to race down the hallway, jumping onto the banister and sliding down the rail at full speed. After a little while of rummaging through the boxes that cluttered their loft Conni came across a bag that contained all the clothes from her adolescence that either had some emotion value to her or were just too nice to throw out. She looked through them for a while before settling on a purple satin and black cotton mini-skirt that she'd brought on a trip into Camden in London with her mother and father during the summer holidays of her third year and a tiny looking black vest top. She threw the clothing down the hatch and clambered down the ladder before scurrying back into the bathroom to get changed and to sort out her make-up.
"How could you accuse me of lying, me?! Your husband." He said, pretending to sound crestfallen in an insanely over the top manner. "Heya Ly." Ben chuckled. "I'm guessing this means you haven't got sick of the Princess then." "Hey!" Casey exclaimed, stamping his foot on the floor. "I am not a 'princess' thank you very much wolf boy!" "Sorry, did you say something princess?" Ben replied with a smirk gracing his lips. Casey looked like steam was about to burst out of ears. Suddenly he folded his arms defiantly over his chest and pouted. "Manly." "You shush!" "Oh please, don't even joke about that." Nate laughed. "I'm not getting married any time soon, believe me. I think all my siblings and Immy are higher up in line to get married."
"I'll go first." Dee said. "I won't take long." She added as she stepped into the cubicle. "And you really wouldn't want to meet Father... Believe me. You wouldn't..." After saying that she closed the door and proceeded to get changed.
"Well lets go exploring then!" Casey said, suddenly springing back to life and jumping up into the air before running off down the hallway. "Silly-billy." Elle giggled, poking her 'husband' in the ribs playfully. Conni continued to inspect her face and body to find some reason, some excuse for how she looked. However, the search was to no avail. Leaving her confused and freaked out on her own in the house. After a couple of minutes of panick she took a deep breath and looked thoughtful. "Well..." She muttered to herself. "I'm far too skinny to fit into any of my current clothes... So what am I going to do about that?" Conni inquired herself. "Ah-hah!" She said, slapping the side of her fist into the palm of the other hand with her index finger extended. "I still have some of my old clothes in the attic." She said, quickly turning around and heading out onto the landing.
"Oooooh, Casey's in trouble." Ben laughed. "Oh shut it Benny-boy!" Casey shouted back at his younger brother, fighting back a smirk. "And no I haven't Ly, I'm just so happy that Mickey's getting married." He said quickly, trying to cover up the fact that he'd in fact consumed three cups of coffee and two large bowls of chocolate-coated cereal for his breakfast that morning.
OOC- Okies. "It better be for this price." Casey agreed. "I unpacked both of our things when we first got here, you know when you were having a snowball fight with Nate." She giggled. Meanwhile back home in England Conni had woken up to a rather... interesting surprise. "WHAT THE HELL!?" She exclaimed loudly as she saw her reflection in the mirror after having just washed her face. She carefully touched her delicate facial bone structure, she found a couple of spots on her cheeks. Her skin less wrinkled and her hair was no longer showing the signs of ageing that it once was. "How the f*ck am I-? What the-? Why am I-?" She stuttered as she backed away from the bathroom mirror.
"He's a menance to society is my brother." Ben chuckled as he followed the boys out.
"My Dad just hates everyone who doesn't agree with him one-hundred per-cent of the time, who isn't one-hundred per-cent Slytherin material and who isn't nearly one-hundred per-cent pureblood." She explain as she slung the bag over her shoulder and jumped out into the carriage corridor.
OOC- So we do that? Elle giggled sweetly. "I dunno, go look around see what the resort has to offer?"
"You better hurry up. Can't leave your Dad unsupervised for too long, he might hurt himself." "Don't I know it." Nate chuckled as he turned a corner.
"Good." Elle nodded, hugging his arm tightly. Casey chuckled. OOC- How about we have them not with the others, rather we have them back home or something?
