Secrets only cause problems

"Well at least we know now...no more sneaking around."she smiled slightly


"Lewis glanced at her,clearly this wasnt how he'd thought she'd react

ooc-what should we do now?

 

OOC- I don't really know.

 

ooc-...chirstmas or something? I was planning to bring Alex into it at christmas,saying he's been away studing

 

OOC- Okay then.

 

Lyra was huddled up on one of the couches in grimmrald place,where they spent every chirstmas with Harry and Ginny,Cory nodded in and out of sleep while watching cartoons,


Jordan was in the kitchen with his mother and grandmother when the door went,He quickly answered it before it could wake his nephew"Alex!"


"Hiya Jor."he grinned

 

The majority of the Malfoy family had joined the Potters for Christmas this year. Conni had frequently been a visitor at the Potters for Christmas, her grandfather was anything but fond of her and Draco always had to go see his parents or risk a family feud that would never subside. So Conni had come along with her children, but not her husband. As per usual. She was trying her best to help where ever she could, her kind nature was leading her to feel guilty for being there.

Casey was sat on the floor besides Lyra's seat, once again he had his nose in a medical book. This one had been a Christmas present from his grandfather Draco, who was all for encouraging Casey into medical magic. And in all honesty he'd started to use Casey as a replacement son for Scorpious as Casey was now the age that Draco had lost his own son at.

As the door slammed shut behind the newcomer Elle looked around the stairs, Jamei in her arms. The little one had been asleep since 11am and it was fast approaching 2pm now. When her eyes rested on the newly arrived redhead her eyes widened, this was not good...

 

"Alex?"Lyra saidlifting Cory as she got up,she went out into the hall,Cory on her hip"Oh my god! I thought you could make!"

"Not for chirstmas....but Im here now"he grinned

 

Elle quickly disappeared into the kitchen with Jamei, hoping to end up blending in with the variety of women that filled the room.

"What's up with you Elly?" Conni asked, raising an eyebrow with suspicion. "You look like you've seen a ghoul."

"Hey, Alex." Casey chuckled, shutting his book and standing up. "Long time no see, what's it been like two years now?"

 

"Hey Casey."Alex nodded"Yeah two years....god it seems longer now im back..."

"Alex?"Alex's younger brother poked his head out from one of the landings "ALEX!"

Lyra smiled,it was nice having everyone together like this

"Lily looked up at Elle,"are you ok?"

 

"Tell me about it, you look way older then I remember. Stress get to you or something?" Casey said jokingly.

"Ye-Yeah!" Elle replied shrilly, clutching to her daughter slightly. Wishing she'd remembered Jamei's hat, anything to cover up her bright red hair. She just wanted to hide everything that could tip anyone off that Alex and Jamei were related. She'd spent so long trying to hide it, so long concealing it. She couldn't have everything pulled out from under her now.

 

HHe laughed"Yeah...lots of stress...you know Casey....you look older too...I know you are but...is that a grey hair?"he grinned


"Are you sure Elle?"

 

"Nah, it's white blonde. It's a family thing." Casey laughed, running a hand through his long golden hair.

Elle nodded franticly. "Yeah, I'm fine. Perfectly fine."

 

"He grinned


she looked questionly at Conni

 

"Well, we just standing out in the hallway or we gonna go sit down?"

"It's best not to push her, you won't get anything." Conni sighed.

 

He grinned"Sitting would be best I assume."

Lily sighed

oooc-brb ^^

 

"Good." Casey nodded as he headed back into the living room, and back to his book.

OOC- Okay

 

ooc-sorry i may disappere again ^^ im filling something out for school

Lyra sat back down,picking up her own battered book,that she'd laid down half an hour before,the front said baby names,for two hours straight she'd suggested names to Casey,then said they didnt fit,now they knew Elle had been right and Lyra was having twins,it was a little easier "What about...Adrain and Anna?"she said

 

OOC- It's fine

"Nope. If it's called Anna she'll get called Annie and then that'll spark even more gay jokes." Casey chuckled. "Anyone seen Elle?"

 

She grinned "Chole? no....Carly...no way....what goes with Malfoy?"

"Casey...do not let her name your son Adrian! he'll be nick named Aids or something!"Jordan said"and she in the kitchen I think"

 

"Usually posh names go with Malfoy. I was just lucky with Casey working." Casey chuckled. "Ahh, I was wondering where she'd gone off to. She even know Alex is here? They seemed to get along well, I would of thought she'd want to see him."
