The vast, blue sky was a welcome sight as Adeline strolled out of the castle and onto the grounds. Though the breeze that was rustling her hair was icy cold, Addie couldn’t help but slip off her jacket, shoes, and socks to let the sunshine soak into her skin, and to feel the grass under her feet. Glancing around to make sure none of her peers were around, she laid down, the blades of grass tickling her face as she rested for a moment, focusing on nothing but the white, puffy clouds and her breathing.

Life had been tough lately, and Addie had been knocked down both figuratively and literally in the past few months. After being brutally knocked unconscious in her first dueling match, her confidence was shaken, though she wouldn’t dare admit that to anyone else. She still played the part as best as she could, but the genuine arrogance of a short time ago now felt incredibly fake, like a mask of the former Adeline.

But today was not the day to dwell on past failures. Today was Adeline’s 13th birthday. For this one day, she got to be the center of some positive attention, and take joy and comfort in the friends she had surrounded herself with. And if things went right, there was even the possibility of upping her confidence a little bit as well.

With a smile of pure happiness—which was quite the change from her usual mischievous grin—Addie took off in a light jog toward the quidditch pitch, where she snatched up some of the school brooms she had gained permission to borrow and headed back out onto the open grounds, moving a little closer to the treeline to find a nice spot to wait for the rest of BOOM.

One by one, she laid the brooms out in a row, then sat off to the side, keeping her eyes peeled for the first of her friends to arrive.

Here's to the movers, the shakers, and the mischief-makers.

Cody grinned. Such a beautiful day. A day for mischie- wait- something was out of the ordinary. He felt compelled to be going to the Quidditch Pitch. Why was that? He slid on his black jeans, rolled up the bottom, and put on his favorite t-shirt one of his many step brothers brought from home.

"Let's go Cody. C'mon." He said to himself. Something rung a bell in his head. It was Adeline's birthday, and he figured he probably could give her present to her in the Great Hall, so he grabbed her gift, a tie dyed shirt that spells out ADELINE HUGHES in letters, not multicolored ofc, but was painted in two different colors, alternating, gold and red.

He looked for Addy in the Great Hall. Nothing. Thought for a minute and realized that there was that odd feeling he had earlier, and decided to act on it. He ran as fast as his tiny legs could take him, every feet pitter pattering with a soft thud upon the grass, towards the Quidditch Pitch.

Upon his arrival, he saw the School Brooms lined up, and he looked at Adeline in confusion. He gave her the shirt that he made for her, of tie dye. Then he picked up one of the brooms, and looked at her quizzingly.

"How come we're out here- oh wiat- you don't you don't have a bludger- or a snitch- or a quaffle- oh crap. You're gonna try to murder us aren't you?" Cody said, the last part of the sentence was said in a joking manner, his tone was light and playful.

"I- Adeline- you scare me sometimes! But but- yer the Ghost." Cody said, mapping out the grounds, the surrounding.

Nicky had been running around the halls of Hogwarts for the larger part of the morning in search of her friend. She needed to see Addie as soon as possible, it was an emergency! She couldn't bear the thought of her very best bestie for all eternity and partner in crime and fellow boom member and duelling teammate not getting her gift first thing in the morning on her birthday. The dorms and the great hall were obviously one of the places she checked first and then there were the owlery and even the classrooms. How she wasn't told off by a professor and given detention, she didn't understand, it was a miracle none of them noticed her running through Hogwarts like a hurricane. Eventually she ran outside onto the quidditch pitch and saw Addie and Cody! Finally she knew where her friend was and could give the gift to her! Nicky ran up to Addie, wrapping her in a powerful tacklehug.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADDIE, I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU EVERYWHERE I can't believe you were here all this time, here is my gift for you!"
She gave her gift to Addie, waiting for her to open it in anticipation. Inside the big box, Addie would find a chocolate, a couple of fireworks, a couple of dungbombs, an enchanted snowball and a birthday card that said:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
Here's to another spectacular year of wrecking havoc together and being the most chaotic friends in Gryffindor! I hope to blow up many more things with you and not just in a duel!

Henry scanned his eyes iver the final page of the book thay he was reading, shutting it close as he thought as one story comes to a close another one openes. The teen placed the reading on his nightstand, crawling off his bed to his feet as his eyes flickered toward the newspaper gift bag filled with gifts for the redhead gryffindor friend. Adeline Hughes. It always humored him how many redheads he knew at Hogwarts, one was his girlfriend.

Henry cleared his mind of Alexa, thay day is for Adeline after all. Whistling for his ornage feline, Loki jumped from the bottom bunk and climbed up his onwer's pant leg to his shoulder. The feline took his spot on Henry's right shoulder, amber eyes gazing over the scene.

Henry walked over toward the door, picking up the gift bag. Inside the bag lays a hamster that the lad crocheted himself, a small glistening necklace representing a planet, and a extendable ear. Each item the lad carefully created or found for his friend, hoping that she liked them. In the other hand he grabbed his nimbus 2001 that his uncle gave him as a holiday gift.

Henry loath flying, managing a O in the class but jusr barely. Both divination and flying laid a point or two away from an E which bothered the teen. His uncle gifted him the broom since his mum was a star quidditch player and she once owned a 2001, the thought felt nice but the teen haven't used the broom yet. Preferring wands over brooms.

The teen left his dormitory and common room, headed through the dungeons then uo stairs. Plenty of them. Stepping out into the grounds, the teen crossed them eyes peeled for Addline and the rest of the group.

Around his neck, swinging besides the pendant laid two necklaces. One a wolf and the other the pizza size that matches the rest of the boom group.

Blue gaze set around for his friends until he spotted them or majority of them. Walking toward the three, noting that Scarlet nor Juniper still haven't arrived yet. The two of them are possibly th only ones with major broom experience since both are either a quidditch player or broom racer. The rest of boom being duelists.

"Hey mates, happy birthday Addy."

Henry spoke with a soft smile as he approached the growing group, giving the girl the gift bag at the end of his words and then placing the broom on the ground. Besides Addy. Eyes flickering from the nimbus then to Adeline as he spoke"you can use the nimbus as it is your birthday but fair warning that it is new, haven't been flew since I got it for the Christmas holidays, " smiling little toward his friend as Loki meow once then jumped from his onwer's shoulder.

Loki walked over to Adeline, rubbing aginest her legs once before bounding over to Nicky who he rubbed aginest. The feline meowing toward the third yeat girl looking for attention.

Scarlet pulled her denim jacket tighter around her as she took her first few steps out of the castle, days like this were always deceivingly cold, the clear blue skies and yellow glow from the sun gave her hope that the air might be a little warmer than it actually was. In her hand she was carrying her carefully selected birthday gift for her friend Addie, in true BOOM style, Scarlet had taken a quick sneaky trip to Hogsmeade to get her hands on it. Wrapped in a bright red tissue-paper type material, a Nose-Biting Teacup from Zonko's, she hoped it wasn't something Addie already had, or at least the kind of prank item you could have more than one of.

When Addie had first told them that they would be meeting at the Quidditch pitch, she was a little confused, it wasn't the first place that came to mind when she thought of a birthday, she was kind of thinking of somewhere indoors, but she was pretty excited to what the plan for today was, despite the cold.

As she stepped onto the pitch, Scarlet caught sight of her friends stood close together in the distance, her strides quickened as she got closer to them, she couldn't tell if she was the last one to arrive, and she was just excited to see them all again, she was pretty sure that it was before the christmas holidays when they all last met up. "Hi everyone!!" she said to the group, happy birthday Addie!! This is for you, hope you like it!" Scarlet offered the present to Addie, after which her eyes wandered over the line of brooms.

"So what have you got planned for us?" she asked the birthday girl, "I'm guessing it has something to do with those," she added as she gestured to the brooms.

outfit reference [x]
Juniper woke up early, not sure why. It took her a few minutes to silently climb down from her bunk bed and pull her notebook out of a hole in her bunkmate's mattress, very very carefully. Yes, she had hidden it there. Not even her bunkmate knew, but she trusted Faye anyways. She flipped through the pages filled with embarrassing secrets and thoughts. This was sort of like a diary sometimes. She flipped to the last page, and covered in glitter and firework drawings was "ADDY'S BIRTHDAY!" She snapped her book shut and hid it back where it was, inhaling sharply. Of course!

She opened her sock drawer and took out all the socks. Under the socks was a wooden box covered in stickers, when she had decorated it as a silly girl. The girl who had joined BOOM. She still was that bubbly girl, especially around her friends. She opened the lid and took out exploding bonbons and the ever-bashing boomerang. She grabbed a handful of honeydukes candy carefully and some paper.

She grabbed a sparkly red sharpie and some tape from a bag. She hadn't done a craft in while.
DEAR ADDY
First, I have pepper imps for you. You can breathe fire with these! You are like a fire, Addy. In a good way, because you're unstoppable and yeah.
The next thing is Drooble's best blowing gum, I hear it is very resistant. Like you! YOU ARE POWERFUL ADDY! YEAHHH!
Then a few chocoballs, because YUM
annnddddd, a bunch of chocolate frogs!!

P.S, enjoy the exploding bonbons and the ever-bashing boomerang. But be careful.


She took everything and began to get dressed, and let her ferret climb onto her shoulders. Addy had said meet near the quidditch pitch... Juniper grabbed her broom as a second thought. Maybe after or before everyone arrives she could practice and let Addy try. She could even try and do some tricks for her friends.

She walked outside and smiled as she saw her friends. "HEY GUYS!!!" She yelled, noticing brooms on the ground. She handed her gift to Addy "Happy birthdayyy!" She held her broom in her hand for a moment and looked at Henry's. "Dude, is that a Nimbus 2001? Those are pretty good. I have a Shooting Star~" She smiled to herself. "Addy you can use my broom if you want... but I think Henry already offered. "

Addie’s heart lifted higher and higher with each of her friends’ arrival. What a special year it was to be delighted by her party guests instead of begrudgingly welcoming her various aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents for a stoic meal followed by gifts suited for a child much younger than she was.

“Thank you all so much for the presents!” she gushed, tearing through the various paper and bags, her eyes lighting up with each new item she unwrapped.

“Cody, I love this shirt! I can’t wait to wear it! Nicky, ooh—all sorts of pranking supplies! We’ll have to make good use of these! Henry, this little hamster is so cute! Did you really make this yourself? Oh, and an extendable ear, very good, and this necklace is beautiful.” Addie quickly slipped the planet necklace over her head, joining her pizza slice necklace she had also received from Henry on Cody’s birthday. “Scarlet, a nose-biting teacup! I had one of these when I was tiny, but I only had it for a few hours before my parents took it away…maybe I’ll actually get some use out of this one! And Juni, I absolutely cannot wait to stuff my face full of all this chocolate! And an ever-bashing boomerang—I already feel sorry for the poor sucker that finds themself on the other end of this!

Really, thank you all so much. You don’t know what this all means to me.

But now, we have more important business to attend to.”


With a chaotic gleam in her eye, Addie moved over to the line of brooms, arms folded behind her back.

“You all seem very curious about why I’ve laid out all these brooms. Well, let me explain. In honor of my 13th birthday, I have decided to hold the First Annual Official Addie’s Birthday Broom Race!” As she announced the title, Addie held her arms wide proudly as if she were introducing the queen herself. She paused for a moment to gauge the reactions of her friends.

“You see, I’ve been so busy with dueling—as have many of us—that I haven’t even had the chance to try out a proper broom race. So…” she gestured once more to the line of brooms, “let’s race! Oh, and I do think I’ll be borrowing that broom from you, Henry, thank you very much.”

Addie cocked one eyebrow as her eyes passed over each of the BOOM members, wondering who her biggest competition would be.

“Oh yeah, and Professor Stube told me to make sure that everyone knows that this is dangerous and you don’t have to participate and it’s just for fun and blah blah blah—but that doesn’t really matter since we’re all cool with it, right?”

Here's to the movers, the shakers, and the mischief-makers.
