April 9th; Breakfast
Opeila was used to not getting any mail in the morning, apart from the magazines she had subscribed to and occasionally also the Daily Prophet. Nothing personal, the Virtanens didn't usually send her owls unless they wanted to give her instructions for the next holidays and Opeila didn't expect any either. Lysander and her had said that they wanted to send each other letters, but neither of them had actually sent anything and Opeila didn't mind it. She didn't intend to send him anything, not after the conversation she had listened to during the last holidays. The two of them had not parted on friendly grounds.

Considering all that, the young Slytherin was more than surprised to see an owl drop a letter in front of her on the Slytherin table, sealed with the Virtanen wax seal. The handwriting in which her name was written on the envelope was clearly Lysander's.
First Opeila didn't open it but placed it next to her plate. She wasn't sure if she wanted to know what her adopted brother had written, so she took her time, finished her toast and scrambled egg first, before she picked it up again and carefully broke the seal.
APRIL 11TH 2022

Dear Opeila,

I hope you are doing well and that the owl reaches you alright. If possible, it would be nice if you could get the poor thing some water, the trip from Durmstrang was surely not pleasant.
So sorry that I again couldn't come to visit, by the way. With my finals coming close, I need to focus on school, but hearing of the Hexwizard Tournament really makes me wish that I finished next year.

Anyway, I am not writing for small talk. I don't like how things went between us last holidays and I understand that I am not innocent in this. And although I will not pretend to agree with everything you say and think- which I don't expect from you in return either- I want to apologize for not trying to understand you enough. Our life is new for you and maybe we do expect too much from you sometimes, but please believe that none of it is an act of dislike. My parents try to act in your interest and perhaps that is easier for me to understand and see, since I have lived with them all my life.

However, I don't want our differences in view to come between us like they did. You have become my sister in all ways that matter, I enjoy our talks and your company and so far I had the impression that this was mutual. I hope I wasn't wrong with that. If not, it might interest you that my parents have given me permission to pick you up from the train and stay in London with you for a week again next summer, should there be a certain amount of time in which you are all sent home again. If you are interested, please let me know soon, so I can get us a room in the Leaky Cauldron again.

Love,

Opeila set down the letter, relieved as well as annoyed. So his parents tried to act in her interest, was that quite so? It was clear that he didn't even suspect that she might have eavesdropped on the conversation between the Thatchers and his parents, unless that was what he considered an action in her interest as well. At the same time she was glad that Lysander seemed to have thought as much about what had happened between them as she had. Opeila knew that she hadn't been quite fair to him, but after everything she simply couldn't bring herself to be the first to lift the quill.
Now that he had, she felt incredibly childish for that.

The permission for them to stay in London for a week again was more than tempting. The last time had been fun, mainly because Lysander was a lot more relaxed than his parents. He didn't mind if she didn't keep the manners she was trained at the manor up at all times, and was in fact capable of fun.
She would definitely accept his invitation, gladly, but what would she write back? Opeila felt like she needed to pick her words carefully.

Sighing, she folded the letter and put it into a pocket of the jeans jacket she wore- one of the nice things about weekends: no uniform!- and pulled over one of the two magazines she had been sent. Her favorite by far was the Transfiguration one, she had to admit. Harder to understand, but Opeila quite enjoyed the little challenge.

It was yet another day at Hogwarts.

Hiro was having fun at the foreign school, having been able to meet various people.

But he wasn't done.

Not by a longshot. After all, Hiro's goal while he was here, was to meet and greet everyone at Hogwarts. It was a difficult feat but one he believed he could do.

After all, he had the determination to make his goals come true. This morning was no different, Hiro was wearing a white shirt, blue jeans and a pink sweater on top of the outfit. Mostly because it was a little chilly, despite the fact that it was springtime. The weather had a mind of its own. Trekking into the Great Hall, since it was breakfast time, Hiro let his eyes flicker around the area. He spotted a few familiar faces and then settled on an unfamiliar one.

Perfect.

She was a girl who looked older than him, although she was also shorter.

As he got closer to her, Hiro could see she had slightly wavy brown hair, with a tinge of red to it. Quite pretty. He loved hair and liked to style it a lot, along with outfits.

Upon reaching the girl, Hiro flashed a smile in her direction and raised a hand into the air. "Hey there!" He said, watching as the girl placed a letter into her pocket, sighed and then pulled a magazine towards her. "Whatcha lookin' at? Is it interesting?" Hiro asked, curious by nature. "I'm Hiro. You are?" He said, wanting a name to put to the face before him. Hiro took a seat beside the girl and continued to stare at her, his gaze extremely direct.

Hiro's hair is pink, remember.
The earring and necklace are present but the shirt is not, he is wearing the pink sweater.

Reaching out, he grabbed a banana and some milk, without taking his eyes off the girl beside him. And started to peel the banana, waiting for her response.

Getting up and dressed, Bailey realized that it was the weekend! She could wear anything she wanted. Deciding on a simple outfit, jeans, her black boots, a black tee shirt, and a sweater from her hometown of Leeds, Bailey heads down to breakfast. She was going to have a productive day she recorded, and made a mental list of thing she need to do. Do homework, respond to owl pal, return books to library, get more books. Bailey thought to herself.
As she walked into the great hall for Breakfast, Bailey spotted a boy that looked familiar… his died hair and brown eyes made her realize that she had seen him at the Holi celebration a while back. AJ head not gotten a chance to talk to him much, so she decided to go introduce herself.
Walking up to Homs don’t he girl he was talking to, she waited in a break in their conversation to tap him on the shoulder and say “Hello! My name is Bailey. Bailey Glade. I think we met at the Holi celebration and i can’t remember if I introduced myself or not. Sorry to interrupt your conversation, but I wanted to say hello before I forgot again.”

Hiro was distracted by Bailey's arrival.

He turned his head to let his eyes flicker over the newcomer and a smile came to his face.

"Ah! Bailey! Yeah, I remember you. We met at the Holi 2022 celebration and also at the ball! How are you doing?" Hiro asked her and let his eyes flicker over her.

"How's that boy doing? The one you came with, James?" Yes, Hiro had a good knack for remembering the names of people. "I think you said he got a stomachache or something and had to leave early, right?" He asked. "How does he feel now? If he's better, you think I could see whether he could make some of that Cullen sink thing again?" Hiro inquired. "I can't get the dish out of my mind." He chuckled.

"It sounds so odd but so delicious at the same time!" It really had been a shame that he hadn't been able to taste it before the potluck table had been flipped over by his roommate. Hiro glanced back over at the girl who had yet to speak to them and then started to stuff the banana into his face. Well not into his face but into his mouth. Once he'd finished, he reached out to grab some toast, scrambled eggs and bacon. And again started to eat them.

If Bailey started to talk again, Hiro would look up at her.

Walking up to Hiro, Bailey was glad she had decided to come say hello. Besides teaming up with him at the Holi 2022 celebration, she had talked with him more at the Ball. When Hiro asked how James was, Bailey visibly saddened. Looking at her feet, she mumbled “His grandmother is sick so he had to leave. He is not at hogwarts anymore- and I don’t think he will make it back before the end of term. I don’t know if he will even graduate to the next year!”
Bailey brightened when Hiro mentioned the Cullen Skink James had made. She was pretty sure she would be able to duplicate it, so she said “Though James is not here to make it, I can probably get the recipe from him and make it. I’m not too bad in the kitchen either- and I bet it will turn out pretty well. And you can help! Do you cook or bake much?”
While waiting for a response, Bailey turned to girl who was also sitting there. Realizing that she had not introduced herself, Bailey said “Oh- and my name is Bailey Glade. I am a second year Ravenclaw. I think I’ve seen you around the castle- you are a hogwarts student?”

Hiro's lips parted upon seeing her expression.

She obviously felt bad about something and her words confirmed his suspicions.

"Ah, I can understand that, family comes first." Hiro said but the look in his eyes was complicated if one were to stare into them. Bailey might not have though, as she was looking downward at the time. The pink haired boy's expression cleared though when Bailey mentioned the Cullen sink thing, saying she might be able to replicate the dish. "Really? That's awesome!" Hiro exclaimed and reached up to scratch his head at her next words.

"Actually, I've never really tried to do anything in the kitchen before. So I'm not sure whether I'd be good at it or not. But I do know I'm good at eating!" He said with a grin. "If you still don't mind me, I'd love to help out though!" Hiro added, wondering what the two of them would do. "But it would have to be sometime today though since we leave tomorrow." He said with a pout on his face, not wanting to go.

But all good things must come to an end.

"Hiro Bakugo. First year Mahoutokoro student." Hiro said, introducing himself.

He knew they'd exchanged introductions before, both at Holi 2022 and the ball but it was good manners to do so again. After all, Bailey had done so. Hiro didn't want to not respond.

Hiro said that he understood; that daily comes first. Bailey nodded, but internally she was still a mess. Am I losing feelings for him? Will I ever see him again? What should I do.. send him another owl? Or is two a week too much?? What is too much? Am I crowing James? What if I scare him away??

Unbeknownst to Bailey, her worries were about to become her reality.
Her nerves were settled as her conversation with Hiro progressed. She joined them at the table, poring herself a bowl of chocolate puff cereal and adding milk.
Hiro said that he was leaving the next day, a fact that saddened bailey. She liked her new friend, and said to him: “If you don’t mind- I am going to send you owls. I say weekly, but it might end up twice a month. I love sending them, and it would be cool to have someone to keep in touch with. And you can pelt me with owls as well!! It would be so-“
Bailey’s sentence ended when a tawny, brown owl flew landed and spilt her juice.
Untying the letter from the leg, Bailey apologized to Hiro and the other girl, Opelia.
Opening the letter, Bailey read:

Dear Bailey,
I don’t know what to say. My grandmother is much worse, and I am unable to return to Hogwarts. I most likely will not return next year, as we have to move to the United States for a cure. It is a muggle disease, and the Healers at St. Mungos were unable to help her.
I will be attending Ivormony from now on. We have done all of the transfer papers and such.
Also… I have found someone in the US. She is truly special, not that you are not.
So.. I was going to ask you to be my girlfriend, but I guess life is taking us on other paths. I apologize for any pain or anything this will cause you; it is not you, it’s me.

Sincerely,

James Owens

Bailey dropped the letter into her lap. She was numb to everything else, and couldn’t hear anything but a buzz of noise from the chattering students.

Bailey joined them at the table.

Hiro was happy for her company and nodded when she said she was going to send him lots of owls.

"It sounds like a great plan! I'll look forward to them!" He told her with a smile and glanced over as a tawny, brown owl came flying over in their direction. The owl crashed into Bailey's juice and spilled it all over the table. Hiro just barely managed to avoid getting splashed and glanced over in the other girl's direction to see if she'd avoided it too. When he looked back, Bailey looked like she was zoning out after reading the letter. Hiro glanced down at the letter she'd dropped onto her lap and realized what was wrong. The boy quickly reached over and down.

Picking up the parchment, he folded and placed it back into the envelope before gently placing it back onto her lap again. There was no need to let others accidentally read the contents. Hiro leaned forward and hugged Bailey, giving her a probably much needed hug and hopefully getting her out of her daze. It would probably be best not to address this right now, not in front of everyone. "So yes, I hope to get your letters as often as you want to write them!" Hiro told her with a smile and let his dark eyes flicker over her for a few seconds. She was a really nice girl.

Zoning out in shock, Bailey did not notice as Hiro picked up the letter from her lap and placed it back in its envelope.
He then leaned forward, giving her a much needed hug, and she zoned back into real life, hugging Hiro back.
“Thanks…” Bailey whispered.
She smiled weakly when Hiro mentioned her writing him letters- she made a mental not to do so often, and then sighed. Sitting up straight, she sighed again and then fixed her usual smile on her face. It was a little weaker than usual, but it was still there.
“Thanks again. That letter… was not what I expected to get today. I’ll be fine though. I knew this would happen.”
Sighing for the third time bailey looked up at Hiro just in time to catch him glancing at Opeila. Or rather, where Opelia had been previously.
“Hum?” Bailey murmured, raising an eyebrow and then also glancing at where Opeila had previously been.
“Where do you think she went?” Bailey asked Hiro, and then blushed.
“Never mind- it’s really none of my business.”
she probably left while we were talking Bailey thought, realizing that that was the most likely answer to her question.
Fidgeting with her robe, Bailey wondered what she should say.

Hiro was a very physical person.

He expressed his feelings more with physical acts than talking about his feelings. Some people weren't comfortable.

Others were. But Hiro couldn't help his instinctual reactions. It just happened without conscious thought on his part. Many hated it, others loved it and some just tolerated it but reprimanded him often. He'd gotten various different reactions from various different people over the years he'd been alive. Bailey seemed like she was one of the ones who didn't mind it at all, which was nice. Hiro let his eyes flicker over the girl for a few seconds. "What are you doing after this?" He asked, curious. If she wasn't busy, there was something he wanted to do with her now.

Something fun!

"Want to show me how to make that Cullen Sink thing? I'm not doing anything until around 10AM."

Hiro intended on watching the quidditch match that took place at 10AM but he'd be free up until then. Why not spend some of that time with Bailey? She seemed like a really fun person to be around! The time he'd spent with her at the Holi 2022 celebration had been awesome. Spending more time with her would definitely be a blast that was for sure. Hiro wondered if she had still kept the shirt she'd used back then. Was she the type to keep sentimental things like that? Or could she be the type to just enjoy the moment and forget about any creations she'd made after?

It was around this time that he remembered the older girl from before. Oh right, he'd completely forgotten about her while talking to Bailey! Turning to the side, Hiro realized the other girl was gone. She'd probably left while they had been chatting. Oops. Well, it didn't matter, he'd find her again sometime in the future! That was one of the good things about him, Hiro had a lot of persistence! Well, technically it wasn't a 'good' thing, at least when it came to other people. But it was good in his mind! They were going to head out anyway together hopefully, so Hiro was busy.
