Storms Ahead

|Chapter sixty two : I'm Not|

"There are millions of formally dressed skeletons living under the earth right now"

"Living?"

"Yes. Living. Waiting. Preparing" I mumbled quietly as I flicked through the booklist for this year, cringing slightly before looking to Jayden, both of us turning around at the sound of a giggle as we stared at Ali who sat in the corner of the room, peeling a banana with a grin on his face

"May I take your jacket, sir?"

"Do you think other people can't hear you?" Jayden asked ludicrously as we both stared at him, still laughing as he shook his head

"Is he alright?"

"He never has been so he can't be-"

"Amelia!"

"What?" I asked Oscar as he came running in behind Nathan, jumping up and down happily with a grin on his face, letter clutched tightly in his hand as his hair changed colours rapidly and I stared at him

"It came! It came!"

"What did?"

"My booklist! I'm actually going to Hogwarts!" He shouted as he ran at me and jumped on top of me as he sprawled out and I let out a slight huff as he started laughing and I raised an eyebrow

"So you're not a squib?"

"Bloody hell Amelia-"

"What? I thought he was" I shrugged to Jayden as he tried to hide his laugh and I turned back to Oscar with a smile

"I'm joking, good for you though. You'll love it-"

"When do we go to Digon Alley?!"

"Diagon Alley"

"Oh yeah, that. When do we go?"

"Tomorrow-"

"Really?!"

"Really. That's when the Weasleys are going too-"

"Can I meet Pansy and Daphne?!"

"If they want to meet you" I told him, amused as he jumped up and sprinted out of the room laughing with glee as I looked to the other three, all staring at me with a grin

"Shut up"

"We weren't going to say anything"

"Lying cunts"

"Not so girly now huh?" Ali asked laughing as I lifted my head and stared at him blankly

"What?"

"What? You seemed so girly when sitting there with Oscar"

"Don't call me that"

"What? Girly?"

"Stop it Ali" I grumbled as he stood up with a grin on his face and pointed at me

"You're as girly as Holly!" He shouted with a grin as I stood up and chased after him, through the hall I chased him into the kitchen before into the garden as he skittered around the edge of the pool, shouting the word 'girly' over and over again at the top of his lungs as I started to get annoyed

"Amelia Black's girly! Amelia Black's girly!-"

"Shut up!" I screamed at him as I was grabbed, my hands turning cold as I looked at them, already white as I crossed my arms and I looked up at Adam who was staring at Ali

"What the hell are you shouting about now you daftie?"

"She's a girly girl!"

"Shut the fuck up Ali!"

"You're not girly"

"I know I'm not but he just won't fucking shut up!"

"Lay off the whiskey for awhile Ali and just stay inside" Adam sighed as I scowled at him as he edged around the pool wearily, watching him intently as a grin formed on his face and he opened his mouth as I let out a noise of irritation, feeling a strong gust of wind come in our direction as he was pushed into the pool as he resurfaced after a moment and I looked at him with a glower as he swam to the edge of the pool and pushed himself out unhappily as the wind dropped completely as I huffed quietly

"I'm not girly"

"I know you're not. But there's nothing wrong with being girly-"

"When it comes from the sneering mouth of Ali and the others there's a lot wrong with being girly! He says it as if it would make me weak and inadequate! But I'm not because I'm not girly!"

"Alright, calm down, you're not girly" he mumbled quietly as I turned around and hit my head against him with a huff

"Are you alright?"

"He should go and shove a pineapple up his arse"

"That got... so violent"
