"Rhea! You have a visit!"
"Ugh, Aunt Bree, just sent them off! PLEASE!", Rhea said covering herself with the pillow, she really hated people interrupting her sleep.
"That's nice of you Ree, really nice" someone spoke on the edge of her door.
"SIRI!" she yelled, standing up abruptly and hugging her best friend. "You're lucky that I love you, otherwise you would be six feet under"
"Yeah yeah, no one should dare interrupt your sleep" he said mockingly.
Rhea rolled her eyes, "anyway, what are you doing here at..." she looked at the clock on her table "7 AM! Too early Sirius, way too early" she continued yawning.
"Oh come on, don't tell me you haven't received it yet?" the boy questioned while sitting on the couch.
"Received what?" Rhea asked while making her bed. Sirius looked at her curiously.
"You never make your bed" he stated, and she rolled her eyes. "Your Hogwarts letter dimwit!"
"Ohh... OHHHH!" she jumped happily. "AUNT BREE, DID YOU RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HOGWARTS?! MY LETTER?!"
"No need to shout, I'm right here" said Brianna, walking into her room. "And yes, yes I did. Here. Take it". With a wide grin on her face Rhea took and read her letter.
"What's all this ruckus about? I was just trying to sleep after my night shift - which by the way was wonderful thank you for asking - and I hear you all yelling". Daniel said, rolling his eyes. "The disrespect!"
"Well if you must know uncle Daniel, I received my letter" Rhea said, the grin on her face never fading.

"Yeah well uncle Daniel, don't expect a sickle from me!" Theo shouted from his room.
"YOU CHEATER!" and with that Daniel left Rhea's room, stomping down the stairs to the kitchen.
"Dramatic" scoffed Brianna.
"I HEARD THAT" responded Daniel.
"Anyway, would you like some pancakes?" she asked.
"Yes Mrs. Devereux, thank you"
"Always with the formalities Black", Rhea commented. "Thank you aunt Bree". With that, Brianna winked at her and got out of her room.
