Where The Wild Things Are Closed

It had been decided what the lovely children would call the woman. Not it mattered too much, As long as they were comfortable with her. El would smile down at them from her three feet of height. It was more apparent that whoever had a relationship with the blonde, it would be different from most professors. To most, professors were more parental, strict, or maybe even intimidating. Elaine would be more of a friend than any of those. 

Maybe it was her childish and immature stature that made her more likable to most of those children. But there was something about Elaine that was so charming, Whatever it was, it was working with these girls. The charismatic young woman smiled when all of them had confirmed their not being busy. Now she could help them do something the young girls most likely have never done before. 

Elaine's grey eyes stared intently into each of theirs. The blonde, with a wave of her wand, lowered the trunk to a walking level. Of course, five girls couldn't possibly all fit onto this barely decent sized trunk. But all it needed was a little adjustment. The young lady stepped off of her place on the trunk, standing in front of the four other girls. El was just about average height, making her a little taller than the young witches. She lifted her wand out to in front of her and cast the charm 'engorgio' on her trunk. The leather box-like thing would grow like the pumpkin in Cinderella. She would look back to the girls, proud of her work. "No, that's right. I don't need a tour." 

And as if it wasn't completely crazy, the young Charms professor smiled at them. "Well then. Since none of you girls are busy," She gestured to the trunk that could now fit them all and maybe one more. "Would any of you like a ride?" And some of the girls might have even been a prefect, but it still wouldn't matter. She would just tell them that it was her fault. Elaine would peer at them with her grey eyes, eyebrows raised innocently. Yes, she was serious. And yes, she really was going to do this. 

Still, the curious look had been planted on to her face. It was hard to tell what the newest Charms professor would ever do, though that was an enjoyable thing. She preferred the immaturity of El to the brutality of most of the professors, though her nickname reminded her of the word 'The' in Spanish, but she made a mental reminder to ignore it. 

None of the students had anything to do, that was great it only gave her a chance to increase her relationships at Hogwarts. So far, she hadn't been comfortable with the other two scholars, Amanda she had known for a while and it seemed like she had known Elaine for the whole school year, no matter if they had been in school for a while now. 

Watching as her trunk lowered, she raised an eyebrow. All four students plus El could not fit on to the small trunk. She remembered her own trunk being bigger than she had wanted, watching El's just made her slightly jealous and mostly amazed. She could only think of the possibilities of the spell... even though half of them involved racing their trunks instead of horses or brooms. Did every single charm have a good side to it?

The idea never did hit her until El enlarged her trunk, she stepped back a little to prevent the massive trunk from bumping into her. It was needless to say that she did let out a noise. Though she was unfair or that noise had been a gasp or a squeal.

She didn't need to be asked twice, hoping in the middle on the trunk, she beamed brightly. The newest professor was amazing and no one could change her mind. "That's my answer, did you even have to ask?"

She gestured to the Amanda, then to the other students before looking back at El. "Do you think we're going to learn this spell this year? Well, both spells actually."

Anastasia's eyes widened to nearly the size of saucers. What she really going to let them ride with her? That surely seemed safer than her attempting to copy it on her own, and maybe she would learn more about this lovely and slightly eccentric professor. She bit her lip when she thought of what her parents would say if they heard about it. They would think it most improper and juvenile of her. So, maybe she would refrain. But she really wanted to do it. But her parents would be angrier than they already were if they found out. She supposed she’d just have to make sure they didn’t find out. 

“I’d love to!” she exclaimed, the words coming out a bit more exuberantly than she meant for them to. “I mean, that sounds like a great deal of fun, and I’d certainly like to.” She blushed a bit after she spoke. SHe must have seemed like a bit of a mess. Normally, she was more on the reserved side and she thought through everything that she said. Now though, she was thrilled at the idea of getting to ride around on the trunk. Sure, she'd played Quidditch before and had a good amount of flying experience, but the whole thing still seemed most fascinating and enthralling to her.
