"Max.... What if I don't get in." A girl with bright blue eyes and brown hair spoke from next to her brother.

"Are you for real? The chances of you not getting in are like 0.1 percent," The boy with brown hair and brown eyes replied.

"Yeah, but knowing my luck it'll happen."

"Don't be negative or it'll happen."

She sighed feeling anxious causing the lights to flicker.

He looked up at the lights "Yeah, I think you got a full ride in."

"Shut up" She laughed softly hugging her stuffed animal close to her chest.

"You're definitely going. I will drag you there if I have to."

She poked his side with an evil glare.

He pushed her hand away.

She flicked his head giggling.

He bit her arm.

She gaped in pain"Ow! You bit me!"

"Not too hard, don't flick me."

She grabbed a pillow hitting him repeatedly

***

A 5'1 blonde with light blue was lying in bed next to her twin brother. "....Freya has to get a letter...."

"I hope so," he mumbled, he was tan, 5'7, had raven dark hair and dark brown eyes.

"She has to." She whispered cuddling into his side.

He held her close with a silent nod.

She wrapped her arms around him as the door opened and a small girl with black hair and blue eyes walked in. "Hi," the girl, Freya, mumbled sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Hey," Aurora mumbled opening her arm for her.

She moved into her arms with a sigh. She was hoping so badly that she would get a letter, she couldn't do another year of hiding in the attic when her siblings were gone at school.

She held onto her and Roscoe tiredly. "I love you guys"

"Love you," Freya and Roe mumbled.

"Morning" Faith mumbled as she walked over to the dining room table.

"Morning," Charlotte said with a smile.

She kissed her head before sitting next to her dad's chair.

Jonathan placed a plate of breakfast in front of her before sitting down "Sleep well?"

She shrugged "Thanks... I guess I I fine."

"Max said you were anxious yesterday, you usually don't sleep well when anxious."

"I slept in Max's room."

"She tossed a lot," Max answered.

"Snitch"

"I rolled off the bed because of you."

"You always roll off the bed, man-child."

"I'm a man." He spoke his voice cracking.

"Boy," Jonathan corrected.

Faith laughed softly making a face at Max, she loved it when her dad took her side.

He stuck his tongue out at her.

"Mail," Charlotte called, sitting down as the owl flew into the room.

Faith immediately tensed sitting back.

As Charlotte passed Max his school supplies letter, he saw an envelope with the name 'Juliette Faith Thorn' grabbing it. "Oh, hey, it's your letter for clown school."

She kicked his shin under the table grabbing the letter.

"Owie," Max mumbled, rubbing his shin.

"Baby." She mumbled opening her letter.

"Meanie," he mumbled.

"OH like you didn't already know that." She mumbled smiling at her letter but she didn't open it.

"Told you you'd get in," Jonathan spoke.

"Yeah, yeah" she grinned.

"'Oh my, Maxy, what if I don't get in? Oh my, my family is nothing but magic and I make the lights go crazy, but I don't think I'll get in'," Max mocked in Faith's voice.

She glared at him shoving him off the chair.

"Ow!" Max yelped as he hit the floor. "It's true."

"Stop talking you bloody moron"

"No."

"Are you happy that you got in?" Charlotte asked cutting the argument off.

"Yeah." She smiled at her mom throwing a piece of her food at her older brother.

"Good. You had nothing to worry about," Jonathan told her.

"All I do is worry." She bit her nail.

"No shit," Max mumbled sitting back in his chair.

"I'll kill you" Faith looked Max dead in the eye.

"Don't do that, you'd miss me too much."

"Says who?"

"Says you."

She rolled her eyes kissing her parents' cheeks and heading up to her room.
