The Grant House

" Grandma! I dont see her! Where is she? Where is she?" Ross sat at the window, looking around wildly outside.
" Your mother is right th_"
"What? no! Not mommy! I see her! My new baby sister! Where is she? Did they forget to bring her?"
"No dear. Your baby sister is in your father's arms."
"W- well good then. Yes. That's good. "
Ross pressed his face against the window as he peered at the little baby. His father and mother walked to the door out if Ross's sight. He sprang up and ran to the door. Half way there, he turned around and grabbed his grandmas wheel chair and pushed her to the door.

Ross's face could be seen as his parents opened the door. He shoved it open with her hands and elbow and hopped on his toes to see the baby. His mum smiled. "Hi sweety! I missed you!" But Ross could only look at his sister. "Whats her name?" He demanded. "Ross... Ross... Ross Jr.?" He asked, and his parents smiled.

"Actually, we'll be calling her Paige."
"I thought parents were supposed to love all their children. "
His parents blinked.
"That's mean. Why would you name her that?"
Crickets.
"It's rude to call someone something their not. You just called her paper! That's horrible name!"

Everyone in the room laughed except Ross. "It's not funny! As her big brother, I have to protect her and your bullying her!" But her parents shook their heads. "Paige means... how should I put this? Like a knight in training. You can be her knight in shining armor."

Ross thought this through. He nodded. "Besides. We do love our children. Now come on. Want to give her Her bottle?" Ross immediately jumped up and down and followed his mum to the couch where she sat with Paige in her lap.

Her took Paige gently and took the bottle. "Careful Ross..." He nodded, looking lovingly into his sister's face. She laughed and slapped the bottle away. Shocked, he looked at his mother. She looked amused, and he knew it was okay. Smiling, he turned back to Paige. "Hi, Paige."

Summer

Paige sat on the swings, pushing herself back and forth. Swinging was something she was good at. The park was right by their house, like sort of in their back yard. It was super close, and everyone knew each other here. Her brother was riding his bike with some friends while she enjoyed the otherwise empty playground. She heard the bell of a bike and she giggled. "Ross! I hear yoU!"

Sure enough, he came into view with a big grin on his face. He jumped off his bike onto the swing next to her and began swinging. "How do you start so fast?" She asked. "Because I'm awesome! I'm a master at swinging! I can even go higher than you~" He said, challenging her.

"No you can't, your scared of me! See, I'm going higher and... and higher!" She said, giggling. "Ah!" Ross said.

As Paige got higher and higher, her bottom slipped forward from the swing and she fell forward in midair. She landed on the ground and scraped her elbow. She began to cry. Ross jumped down quickly as if an alarm had been sounded, which in a way one had. Paige's crying always got Ross on his feet no matter what.

He bent down next to her and wrapped her in his arms. "Let me see.... just a scratch! Your okay! Your tough, remember!" He said, and Paige wiped her eyes. "Yeah..." She picked up some dirt in her hand and jumped up. She threw it at Ross and began to run, laughing.

Dear Ross,
What's up? In case you didn't k 's this is your super duper awesome sister, Paige. Everything is great here at my school, is everyone really believing the whole "private school" thing? I would hate going to private school in real life. Know go to a magical school. Way better! The food here is so yummy! I think to u would like it because it's pretty much unlimited amounts! Everything you could think of!

Know got sorted into Hufflepuff. There are four house s you get sorted in depending on your personality and stuff. Hufflepuff is pretty much the "nice" ones.... But we're loyal and hard working and stuff. So, pretty cool. Made some awesome friends, still miss you tons and tons!

-Paige

Dear Paige,

Wow! Awesome sister? Surely not more awesome than me! But anyways, that owl startled me. But I like it! It's cute! I think the owl likes me! I'm naming it donut, even though I dont own it. But still. Donut is so cool! Anyways, I'm glad your having fun at your private school miss Paige. I hope you are behaving yourself? But surely not. Not the Paige I know, anyways.

Hufflepuff? Sounds boring. They might need someone like you to make them more awesome. Is there a house for awesomeness and handsomeness? That would be mine for sure. Or course I would rather you come to muggle school so we can be together but im glad your having fun.

-worlds best bro, Ross
