Its not a Grey its a Jackwood pv

What are you looking at?

A voice pops out of nowhere and the sudden question, made Bree jump. Embarrassment ran through her and red lit up her cheeks. She was staring so intensely at the other table that someone noticed. Smoothing out her robes, she drags her gaze away from the Slytherin tableto find the source of that cheerful voice. A younger Gyrffindor girl was standing next to her. The first year had her hair braided and dressed in some casual comfy clothes. Seeing the way she dressed made the older Gryffindor long for her outfit sh worn earlier in the morning while she ran. A habit she tried quitting and failed miserably at. The only reason she wanted to quit was because of Matthew. He, to her, didn't deserve the title of her father. Not when you have a whole other family. Ever since learning of this women and connecting theses dots, she wants nothing to do with him. She has a stack of unopened letters from him. She planned to burn them one day. Maybe after she reads them all.

Meeting the young girls gaze, she debate whether or not to admit what she was staring at. If she lied, she would say that shes staring into space. But the way she was staring at the table, would suggest otherwise. Biting her lip she decides to just tell her the truth. "The Slytherin table. I'm looking for someone."

After saying this a thought crosses her mind. Maybe, just maybe, this young first year knows the one shes looking for. But who knows, she may be the type who doesn't interact with anyone but her house. Which is odd to Bree but still some people could be like that. Considering her options, she decides against bringing the young girl into her issues. Unless she asks. Although if she ever does bring this girl in, she would need to know her name.

"What's your name?" Pausing for a second, she realizes the girl would need to know hers too, "Im Bree by the way. Grey not Jackwood."

The moment those words fall out of her mouth, she regrets it instantly. Now the girl will definitely ask who Jackwood is or recognize the name. Biting her lip, she watches the girl carefully for what she'll say next.

When Flame asked the girl the question, she looked slightly embarrassed. The other girl looked at her for a moment before replying, "The Slytherin Table. I'm looking for someone." Flame wondered who she was looking for. Most of the Slytherins she had met were mean and snooty.

Then the girl asked Flame what her name was. She paused before saying that her name was Bree but then added, "Grey not Jackwood." The girl's face immediately flushed after she said that, and she started biting her lip. Flame stopped and examined her for a second. The girl seemed to be nervous but also looked like she was weighing her options. Flame wondered whether she should leave the girl, Bree, alone, but her curiosity got the better of her.

Flame started to speak. She wanted to ask the girl what she had meant when she had said "Grey not Jackwood," but decided against asking. "I'm Flame!" She said simply. "It's nice to meet you. Want any help?" Flame decided not to pull information from the girl. If she wan
ted to share, she could.

Flame looked over the girl again. She looked like she had gone through something recently. She decided to ask a question after all. "Are you okay?"

Bree lets out a soft sigh of relief when the younger girl doesn't question her on who Jackwood is. The slip up was terrible, something she should've never did. Who knows once her younger companion would spark interest and decide to interrogate her on who this Jackwood person is. Bree did not want to go around and spread the news of how her father is unfaithful and had another child. The shame and embarrassment she would feel if everyone knew. The younger girl cheerfully introduces herself as Flame.

The young girl, or Flame she suppose, offers her help. Tilting her head, the Gryffindor meets the girl's eyes. From the looks of the girl, she suspects that if she said yes and asked for her not to tell, she would follow suit and not tell. But she's judging the girl from looks. For all she knows, the girl is a loudmouth and blabs to everyone she meets about this "exciting adventure" she did with an older student looking for her "long lost sister." Mentally scoffing at those words, she opens her mouth to say no before shes cut off by another question from the girl.

Is she okay? The question Flame ever so caring asks Bree this, she finds it difficult to answer. Of course not. Who would be okay when they have a father who obviously has been cheating on their mother for over, hmm lets say almost 13 years. How is this even possible? Perhaps she should read the letters from her father. Maybe the letters explain how he got away with this. Maybe she will get information before burning them.

Opening her mouth, she closes immediately. What does she tell her? Simple solution, lie and say she's great just great and move on with the day. But that wouldn't really work because if Flame asked her it was probably because she noticed the emotion swirling in Brees eyes. The hurt, anger and sadness in them. Bree could master a wonderful poker face, but if you study her eyes? You'll learn a whole new story.

"Well, it depends. Is finding out your father has been cheating on you mother for about 13 years a good thing because he ever so nicely gifted you with a step sister? If so then Im doing absolutely wonderful." Her voice was laced with sarcasm as she said every word. She drawled out the word "wonderful" with a lazy, sarcastic smile.

After saying this, she crosses her legs, and looks at the Slytherin table, "You said you wanted to help? Tell me, are you cozy with the Slytherin first years?"

Bree knows what she did. Even though guilt flared through her, she pushed it aside. She knows that this girl could throw shame onto her whole family by spilling a single word of what she said to another person. But doesn't her father deserve that kind of embarrassment? Wouldn't that be just a fitting punishment for him putting her and her mother through this? Every part of her screamed that this was wrong, that she should just leave it. But the petty part of her overrode the rest, pushing her forward.

Bree looked at Flame for a while after Flame had asked her if she was okay but in the end she answered. She told Flame that she was “wonderful” in a very sarcastic way right after telling her that her father had cheated on her family for 13 years. So basically, No. Bree was not okay. After telling her this Bree crossed her legs and asked a question if her own. She asked Flame if she was cozy with the Slytherin first years.

Flame looked at Bree for a moment before answering. “I wouldn’t say I was cozy with all of them, but I do know most of them and am friends with a couple, of them.” Flame decided that she would help Bree with whatever she needed. She had known from the start that she would keep quiet about Bree’s business. Flame never shared any of her friends secrets. It was strictly against everything she believed in. She was always loyal to her friends.

Flame turned her mind back to Bree. “If you want you could tell me who you are looking for and I might know them!” If Flame didn’t know them then she would find them for Bree.
