A Trip to London

[Yerik Rhys Price]

Set in the holidays, London, England.</COLOR>

---

It was a breezy day, and Yerik Rhys was wondering why he's parents decided to visit London. He never was interested in the city, it's so typical and a bit boring for his taste. Though he found the people to be here to be interesting, as he had met a few English men and women. Also his father's here to visit a old friend, in which not all of them were tagged along. Yerik's cousin Clea, decided to leave and just continue her book or something. As the five siblings were asked to come, since they were needed the most. Ina Price, carried little Ben while their father was carrying Naddy. On the other hand Luka and Geni, were rolling their eyes at each other. Seems like they were still fighting about Luka's new boy toy he met in Brazil. As Geni somehow grew envious of him, that it caused a drama between the two. There was always this kind of drama happening to the both of them, thank Merlin he was in school during that time. Also he still doesn't know how to apparate, making him ride more transportation as ever. Being the middle child, he didn't had a lot of obligations. All he needed in the future is to have a successful cared, as an Auror of course and marry a pureblood like him. It wasn't a huge pressure for the claw, since his grades were going well. As for the future wife that would be a hard one, now that the stupid gossip magazine stated him of being a sex addict.

At the age of fourteen, how on earth can he even do such thing. Yerik Rhys' still a virgin and has a brain of a innocent child when in comes to sex. He didn't even bother to share the bad news to his parents, since it will just worry the both of them. Instead he told it to Geni, the one who he trusts the most. His brother Luka on the other hand would just ask for more information, like if it was true and some more gossips. He didn't liked that, Yerik wanted to it to be hidden to his family. Making Geni his best friend, he felt it was best to at least tell a few details about it. Days after the sharing of secret, it's like nothing happened and they were all back to normal. Now, here they are walking towards a big mansion. From the looks of it, it looks like a big office, though it's structured like a house. Their father Feo faced them all, still carrying Naddy on his shoulder. <COLOR color="#6E7F80">"I'll just introduce you all to Mr. Nelson and after...you can all go wander around the city. Is that a deal?" their father stated, with a slight smirk at the end of his sentence. They all looked at each other and all nodded with agreement, knowing Naddy and Ben will stay with their parents. Only the three of them were allowed to wander later on, and so they entered the strange looking mansion. Noticing some spider webs were already covering the doorbell, an old lady with bright grayish haired opened the door. She didn't bothered to smiled at them but insisted the family to enter, "He's been expecting you all." said the lady as he opened the door more widely.

The Price Family entered, seeing the furniture looked so old yet so exquisite. The inside was more please than the outside structure of the mansion, they were leaded through a wide corridor and soon they reached a odd looking door. It's shape was somewhat pentagon or something near to that, as they all entered. An old man with a bright smile greeted them "Good Morning Feo and Ina! It's been a while since I saw you!" He looked old yet, smart at the same time it was obvious his teeth were fake. Yerik and Geni, looked straight at each other. Trying to hide their laughter, "The last time I saw you three, you were so young. Especially you Mister, you were a toddler back then." Mr. Nelson exclaimed with delight, he even messed Yerik's trimmed hair. He sighed but still tried to smile towards the jolly person, while his two other sibling were furious for even touching them. Feo nodded and smiled at him, explaining it's been years since they last saw each other. After a couple of minutes they were allowed to leave the place, Luka first dashed out of the mansion and was gone in seconds. Geni and Yerik figured he apparated somewhere away, preferable Brazil to meet his boy toy. "I want some alone time for now, I'll see you later here. Once father calls for us, bye." Yerik said to his sister.

As he turned his back, opening the dusty door and into the streets of London. It was a long walk, since the mansion was away from downtown. He glanced back to it and didn't saw Geni come out of the said mansion, she'd probably do some spying or just wander inside there. On the other hand Yerik now reached the main city, and saw a couple of English women and men smiling at him for no reason. He ignored them and hoped to see something new and exciting. Perhaps the riding the Ferris Wheel sound nice, he thought as he looked up to the big Ferris Wheel. Soon he arrive just in time, as it stopped the line grew longer. Luckily he's arrival was exact, Yerik saw a couple of girls giggling. Excited to ride the big machinery, he really never understood girls nor he ever felt interested in one. Back in Hogwarts New Zealand he was the social awkward person trying to gain at least one loyal friend and up to now here he ins friendless. Maybe he was just hard to befriend or was there something pulling him away. Once he hopped inside the Ferris wheel, he needed a company. As the man in charged insisted that he cannot ride alone, and so he pulled a teenager like him, a female one. They both entered the chamber, as the two of them were a bit surprised that the man just instantly pushed them inside the glass chamber. Yerik Rhys sighed wondering what will happen next, hopefully the girl was here for some adventure just like him.

[Isla Smith]

It was definately the kind of day that got Isla out of bed in the morning. Though with Mere back home for the Summer she was certain she was going tto be forced into some weird partying games and other things with her and her friends. She had a weird type of personality for a girl of her status. Their parents were usually pretty good, though they were extremely prejudiced, so seeing that Isla is home-schooled, she was around her parents prejudice everyday. She didn't hate muggles or anything, but she was likely to never befriend one and she would definately never marry one. Unfortunately with the oldest brother of hers Parker having taken off and getting some half-blood pregnant and so being disowned, the responsibility of the family had fallen to her, being the elder twin and all. She sighed at the realization that she was ggoing to become the head of the family. She was going to have to start paying more attention to the things that her paparents told her now, because she might need tthem for later. What a pain. She walked towards thwe Ferries Wheel and looked at the teenagers whom were giggling about nothing. She sighed and stood ionline, but soon found herself almost forced into one of the caverns with another person, a boy around her own age. She nodded to him slightly and looked away, staring out the bars as tthe door closed behind her and the wheel started to move. The boy was good looking enough, but she thought him tto be a muggle seeing as they were in muggle surroundings right now. She slumoed her shoulders slightly, knowing that if her mother were to bbe watching she would be in trouble, and released a held sigh. She had little time to relax these days and it was greatly appreciated when she got some time. ​

Yerik Rhys couldn't believe he was pushed, no one dared to even push him. Before he could even face the man who pushed him, the claw was now inside the Ferris Wheel. He groaned to himself, trying to act his best in front of a lady. That was the moment she noticed the girl, Yerik Rhys gazed at her for a minute before pulling away, from what he had saw. The stranger's a brunette, about his age and quite pretty. It was unlikely of him to even notice a girl, though after all he was starting to reach the age of curiosity. Still he knew at the age of fourteen, such relationship were too early to have. The young boy then walked a couple of steps, looking out at the glass barriers that separates them from falling. The view's breath taking, if only Geni was here or maybe Naddy to see this. Those two girls loved Ferris Wheels and rides from the carnival, it was Yerik's first time to ride. But it felt like he once dreamed of this, seeing the people small like ants walking. He smiled a little, turning his back to the girl. Still he was glad that it wasn't a boy who rode with him, it would be a lot awkward if so.

The fourth year didn't bother to talk to the girl, not even introduce himself. Maybe later or maybe when she would somehow catch his attention. He really didn't mind, for now Yerik Rhys wants to enjoy the ride. On top, he could see the different sky scrapers, and some old town houses from afar. It looked so wonderful, as the height made him more excited. At the same tried he tried to not show his excitement, acting blunt as ever he was. After a few minutes, he slowly tried to get a glimpse of the brunette. Since brunettes made his head turn every time, also never did he met a beautiful brunette in Hogwarts New Zealand. Maybe no one interested him, there was one but she was such a snob in which irritated him the most. Also he never grew interest in having a crush or anything near to that, he's too busy with his studies. Once he got a glimpse of the girl, Yerik Rhys continued to gaze at the city from above.

 

[Isla Smith]

Isla was certain that her parents were going to make her the head of the family. Parker was out for obvious reasons. Rachel was already married but had only produced girls. They had tested Isla and it is believed that her first child will be a boy. Provided she has the baby before she is twenty five. Her parents didn't seem to care whether or not she actually wanted to have a baby at that young age. The answer was no she didn't, but not many people listened to her and she usualluy only was spoken to when she was in a lesson with her tutor, who was of course a pure-blood. Other than that her parents didn't seem to think that she should be alloowed a voice. So she pretty much just gave up with talking to them. It had become harder and harder for her to get a voice in these days. She sighed slightly and looked out the window thing to observe the people below. She didn't mind being situated above them, it made her feel superior, though she had no hatred of muggles, it was to more the fact that it was like she could fly and they could not. Though she wouldn't have put it past alot of these muggles to somehow figure out how to fly, they were very innovative, they could use laptops, phones and other devices, where as she could not. She thought about how difficult it must have been for the Muggles knowing they would never amount to anything truly magical. It must have been horrible for them to think about their inadequacies. She shrugged and rolled her eyes as it suddenly started to rain.

"Well this is just great, is it not?" She asked as she stuck her hand out the window to ensure that it actually was raining. She was wearing a knee length dress, she was not dressed appropriately to be out in the rain. She turned her head away from the window thing and looked at the boy across from her. He seemed to be curious about her for soem reason, but she didn't have much interest in him right now so she turned her head away from him to look out the other window. The boy kept looking at her and it was beginning to irritate her. She looked at him slightly before opening her mouth to speak. However she quickly closer it again because her mother had always told her not to talk to strangers and this boy was definately a stranger. She corssed her legs and flicked her long brown hair out of her eyes. She liked to leave it down because it made her feel special. Both her parents liked it when they cut their hair so she made sure to keep her hair long so as too annoy her parents in some small way. She loved her parents, definately, but sometimes she wished they would just leave her alone to her own devices. The rain outside started to get slightly louder and Isla found herself sighing in anguish as she realised she was going to have to make her way home without a jacket. She hoped she wouldn't get hypothermia or something.​

There's nothing much to do since he'll be stuck here for the past hour or hours. Yerik Rhys continued to glance at the window, trying to pull his head away from the stranger. He didn't want to act creepy as some would even think of him as a sex-addict. Seriously who would believe that lie? Mostly those imbecile students, who even said a word to him. Somehow he grew mad at the gossip, hopefully no one would ever see his name tagged there. He dreaded the day he saw his name in the magazine, still the only good thing that made it a good thing was being somehow known. Though he didn't liked how it turned out, he wanted to be famous for his wits and intelligence. After a couple of months since the last gossip magazine, he was able to stand tall along the corridors. Ignoring everyone who would stare at him, sometimes he would even smile at their foolish faces just to please them. He grew angry at himself, he grew mad at the world. Merlin knew that this phase will dry out soon, he needed a new start for himself.

Just when he was about to take a few steps away from the window and try to change his position to get a new view. It started to rain, now how could he possibly return to the mansion dry? It would take some time for the rain to stop, not that he dreaded the rain or anything. The timing was just unbearable, he faced the glass barrier once more. Sighing to himself, as he also heard the girl mutter something. He could possibly talk to her if he wants to, instead he decided to just hush himself. Only a matter of time can tell, before this Ferris Wheel ride will end. Then again maybe it would be his last chance to ever see the girl so why not make it worth it. Talk to her, ask her name and if not forever hold his peace. Slowly he faced the girl, who was at the end of space. "Do you hate the rain?" Yerik Rhys asked him, knowing his stupid question would catch the girls attention.

 

[Isla Smith]

Isla dreaded bad weather. In fact, one could say that Isla Smith, future Matriach of the entire Smith family actually, hated bad weather. She would have much rather been in an environment with little to no weather, over bad weather. Bad weather required her to actually make an effort to do things, something she really disliked. Not to say of course that she didn't like work... because when it came to it, she would do whatever work was needed to get things done, which of course was how she was trained, raised, to be the pperfect wife, daughter and mother. But she also had her own mind, something her mither iinstilled iinto her. She would never have to rely on whatever sort of a man her parents required her to marry. She was sure she would be required to fill an arranged marriage, after the largely failed joining of Rachel and Connor, but then look at Parker, who had completely just left the family, with little to no notice at all. Isla shook her head. Her thoughts had started at bad weather and now she was ththinking about marriage and what she may or may not have to do when the time comes for her to embark on the same path as her parents. Her mother and father had both been a part of an arranged marriage and they were fine together. But they were only ever together when it was time to do business, which included the "chore" of conception. She had heard her parents talking about it being their duty to produce purebloods, rather then a wish or a want. It sometimes upset her to no end, but when the world needs purebloods, you answered. Her grandmother was the one they needed to bbe weary of though. She was really mean and sshe had been very angry with both Parker and Richard. Uncle Richard was her own son and she had simply cast him aside. The whole family had been forced to watch. Isla couldn't believe how cruel she had been. But she had loved Richard so very much, there were even rumours that it was indeed the Grandmother of there's whom was responsible for Miss Sally's death. Though of course that news had yet to reach Richard's ears.

Isla cringed as the stupid machine grinded to a stop and looked down to see the men in uniforms attempting to get the machine to work again. The brunette frowned and looked at her companion. She had no knowledge of his name and suddenly found herself little annoyed at his muggleness. Had he not been here she would have simply spelled the machine to start working again. It was rather annoying, however what was worse was that the stupid boy had deemed himslelf allowed to converse with her. She eyes became inflamed and they soon narrowed. How dare he speak to her and interrupt her thoughts. Who did he think he was anyway? "Who do you think you are? I do not appreciate you interrupting my thoughts. I have said not a word to you, so why di you speak?" She asked, acid lacing her words.​
