KINSLEY AWAITED NERVOUSLY as she walked through the grand entrance ornate doors of Hogwarts with her twin sister Allison. Kinsley took a few deep breaths as she prepared herself to meet all 11 of her cousins, Kinsley couldn't help but wish sometimes she had attended Hogwarts with them.... But yet again she loved an enjoyed her time at Beauxbatons with her sister, and she had a few friends of course.... Zero. But there was one person who happened to be plaguing her mind recently....posting as Kinsley Rossi
Kinsley was wearing her blue uniform with the Bellefuille symbol stitched onto the front of her dress jacket, her hair was pulled back into a ponytail in an attempt to tame her wild wavy blonde hair to represent the sleek clean look of the Beauxbatons which her sister made look effortless. Before you ask, no Kinsley and Allison were not identical twins.
The reunion was nothing-less-of-spectacular, as one may expect some tears were shared and excited but emotional chatter. The conversing lasted hours upon hours, partners: boyfriends and girlfriends or even just best friends were introduced. Kinsley was beyond happy, if she could live in a moment it would be this one.... Apparently Kyle liked a broom racer, @Julia Jenkins, based on what Kyle said she sounded great.
Kinsley couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy as she listened to him talk of his crazy endeavors, friends, and crush.... Kinsley had made no friends and struggled to talk to her crush... His name was Maurice and he had kindly brought her back her notebook, she cursed herself for letting herself fall for someone, and so quickly. She spent so many nights lying awake wondering if he was thinking of her too... And as if by God he walked in at the exact moment she thought of him, her face immediately flushed as she watched him wide-eyed walk by in what seemed like slow motion. She crumpled the napkin that she had been twiddling in her hands as she observed Maurice, Kinsley knew she had no chance with him he probably had lines upon lines of beautiful girls wanting to date him... And frankly the idea of holding a boy's hand was enough to send Kinsley spiraling.... Also how was she ever meant to talk to him? She was too shy and quiet, and he was the same.... But even with all this overthinking and overrationaling Kinsley couldn't help but still feel summersaults in her stomach.... To her he seemed like an angel as his layered blonde hair perfectly draped framing his angular face. While her dirty blonde hair made her look almost sickly as her eyebrows and eyelashes were almost non-existent, his hair exccentuated his silvery-blue eyes and naturally flushed face, he walked with such dignity and composure.
Only naturally Kyle took notice of his cousins sudden shift in demeanor. He looked carefully to try and match where her dark eyes were looking, she looked much like a deer caught in the headlights, frozen. Kyle was met with the sight of a blonde boy from the Beauxbatons, did she like him?
"Chi è quel Kinsi? Whos that Kinsi" Kyle said comfortably in his native tongue.
Kinsley spun quickly around to look at him and acted as if she had no idea who he was talking about. cat had her tongue, but this was no surprise for Kyle as he knew of her selective Mutism. So instead he of prying he just gave her a questioning look, she sighed before taking a deep breath.
"Si chiama Maurizio... His name is Maurice"
"Oh, Maurice è il tuo ragazzo? oh is Maurice your boyfriend?"
She shook her head vigorously in response.
"No...." Kinsley said glancing slightly in his direction.
"Sembri rattristato per questo, perché?.... Ti piace forse Maurice? you seem saddened by that, why?.... Do you perhaps like Maurice?"
Kinsley became flushed by the question, before laying her head down on the table giving a nod in defeat. Kyle observed the boy for a moment before continuing to talk.
"Dovresti andare a parlargli, in realtà gli parlerai, Vai e invitalo al ballo!you should go talk to him, actually you ARE going to talk to him, go and ask him to the ball!" Kyle said matter-a-factly getting up dusting his pants.
Kinsley winced in protest as she hugged herself she knew already that she couldn't convince Kyle otherwise, his was extremely stubborn, but now she felt almost sick, but for whatever reason or force she was compelled to stand on her shaky knees that were bruised with bandages due to a broom race practice. Kinsley followed Kyle like a little duckling as they made their way over to where Maurice was. Kyle stopped some distance away as to let Kinsley go herself, he assured her he would be a little distance away to make sure she was okay and for support. Thank you, she uttered to him. It was extremely strange to Kinsley how Kyle received mean looks wherever he went and had such a a tarnished reputation when he was so sweet and supportive....
Kinsley nervously fiddled with her bracelets as she approaches the blonde boy, it took her a couple of tries before she pushes out the words which we're almost too quiet to hear.
"Hey Maurice, it's nice to see you here..." She said trying to remain composed as she saw her sister do many times, but yet she still looked somewhat awkward. "...Thanks again for giving me back my book..."
Suddenly her chest felt like sand and it felt as if her mouth was filled with rocks...

Maurice stepped past the tall doors of Hogwarts and immediately wanted to turn back around.
One of the downsides of being from a muggle born family was not having any connections to the magical world outside of himself. All his sisters and cousins were as muggle as muggle could be, and any traces of magic in his bloodline that had led to his creation were long gone. Because of this, visiting a new school wasn't so much a reunion for him as it was a field trip. His Beauxbatons friends, though, immediately left his side the minute they caught sight of their old friends and family.
Now standing alone in the middle of the bustling hall, he felt a bit awkward with his hands limp at his sides and his posture stiff under his light blue uniform. He averted his eyes from the crowd, trying to make himself feel better about his new isolation by studying the gold-lined portraits on the walls.
His life had been... odd, so far, to say the very least. Magic's emergence into his once extremely average life was a bullet train of discovery and horror as he reckoned with every angle of possibility given by it existence. Pushing the philosophy aside, though, he had started to warm up to the atmosphere of Beauxbatons, as well as the company. One girl in particular had grasped his thoughts, and it didn't seem she would be letting them go anytime soon as the image of her dirty blonde hair continued to flash through his mind everytime he thought about her.
Against his will, he found his eyes falling into the crowd of students, scanning their faces in an attempt to catch sight of the girl. To his dismay, there were a surprising amount of blondes occupying the crowd, and only did he drag his eyes away when a voice shocked him out of his search.
He couldn't hold down the yelp that escaped his throat as he turned to see Kinsley at his side, and his face immediately flushed red. "Kinsley! Uh- yeah, no problem. It's good to see you."
He rocked on his heels, his fingers lacing around his uniform absentmindedly as his eyes trained onto the girl in front of him, attention undivided.@Kyle Diaz

MAURICE YELPED, what Kinsley wasn't sure was whether it was fear or suprise. But it was quite sure to say that Kinsley herself was quite suprised by the boy's face turning beetroot, he looked nervous but somehow still so poised as he directed his attention to Kinsley. She couldn't help but notice how he was rocking on his heels and fiddling/tracing his jacket. Kinsley always paid very close attention to his mannerisms and she wrote it all down in her mental journal, she liked if not loved learning about Maurice.... But it deemed difficult as most of the time as she was too awkward too talk to him instead she would look at him across classes or give him a small friendly smile whenever she passed him by. Was she really about to ask him to the ball? She couldnt help but fiddle her fingers as she smile at him. Even though he was just as awkward as her he was kind, considerate, and super sweet.posting as Kinsley Rossi
"I um.... been meaning to ask you something..." She paused for a moment letting the panic settle in... What if he said no, wha if he had another date? She tried to push those thoughts out of her head, there was a small pause of silence as she looked around aimlessly. She turned to see her cousin Kyle nonchalantly waving his hands for her to go on, she slowly turned to look back at Maurice. ".... Would you.... Maybe, want to go..... totheballwithme???"
She couldn't help but feel a tad embarrassed by the way everything came out.

Amidst the chaos of arrival, Maurice had had very little time to think about what was waiting for them on the other end of the trip to Hogwarts. He had paid only a sliver of attention to the chatter in the halls, one that spoke of some big dance with all the schools present. He himself had never attended a dance, but he had seen the high schoolers from his hometown all dressed up in long, sparkly dresses and sleek black suits towards the end of each year. His sisters had all attended at least one of these events in their lives, and he wasn't sure if he envied them for that fact.
His mind had only started to wander towards it when he had begun to consider Kinsley. The two rarely spoke to each other, but she had strangely managed to take hold of his passing thoughts with quite a bit of force. While all the upperclassmen flaunted their dates with showy ease, it was much more difficult to confront Kinsley with his feelings.
But now, he had to meet them head-on. At first, he didn't understand what she had just let out in a lighting fast string of words, and squinted at her in confusion. Then it all clicked. He felt his heart speed up in his chest, until he was sure it would beat a hole in his rib cage. If his face had been hot before, now it was positively on fire.
"I, uh-" He stammered, trying to conjure up the words before settling for a panicked, "Yes! I would love to."@Kyle Diaz
