Back to normal.

Ivana laughed. "It's boys' clothes. I wear skirts and dresses or lady trousers. I don't like boys clothes." She smiled, a lot of people thought she was old fashioned for not liking trousers much but she just liked skirts. They were floaty, kind of like her.
 
"Ok. That makes sense." Alvin laughed and put his book on the floor next to him. He didn't want to read when he had a girl like Ivy talking to him. He didn't even know why she had bothered trying to talk to him but he was glad of it. "Where do you live then??" It was the only thing he could think of to say.
 
Ivana smiled again, Alvin seemed shy and sweet. "Well, Alvy, I live in bulgaria but I spend loads of time with my best friend in New Zealand. She's sad at the moment though, her daddy got put in jail." She didn't feel like telling him why though, it was hard to explain why she liked a man who was in jail for the murder of two children. He was a good man though, he always would be for Ivana.
 
"Really??" Alvin had heard of another man going to jail just recently-his uncle who he had never met before. And he had lived in New Zealand. And had a daughter. "What's his name?? I know a man of that description who's my uncle that I've never met."
 
"Jay Rouge. Yeah." Alvin smiled. "He's my dad's half brother. That's so cool that you know him. Is he a good man?? How old is he?? Were him and his daughter close?? Where did he work??" Alvin stopped babbling. He wanted to know as much as possible about the uncle he'd never met but he didn't want to seem like some sort of freak.
 
Ivana laughed. "Yeah, Jay Rouge. Yes he is, I can't remember, they are major close, in the ministry." She giggled. "Jay was awesome, he's only in Jail for protecting his wife afer all." She smiled. Ivana Would never believe a word again any of the Rouge's.
 
"I wish I'd met him." Alvin grinned. "He sounds great. My dad hasn't seen him in years though. They only knew each other when they were kids and dad wasn't allowed to tell Jay." Alvin shrugged. He couldn't understand why not but then adults were weird.
 
Ivana was shocked. "Jay has a brother? He has to know! Wait, have you got siblings? OMG Shaylah will be so excited!" She clapped her hands happily and squiggled slightly from side to side. Ivana loved it when families reconected. It was so much fun in her opinion.
 
"How are you going to tell him if he's in azkaban??" Alvin shrugged. "Yeah. I have nine siblings. Is that my cousin's name then?? Shaylah??" He hadn't been told that he had a cousin. He had only been told about his uncle.
 
Ivana thought it over. "Well, we could always try sending him a letter can't we. The ministry wouldn't stop a letter that just tells him he has family." Ivana giggled with shock. "Nine? Wow. I've only got one and he's bad enough." She gigled at her own joke. "Yeah, Shaylah's your cousin, my best frind and, now, Markovs' girlfriend. They're all mushy in my opinion. She's his 'little kitty'." She stuck out her tongue and made a sick face. She didn't like Markov and Shaylah together.
 
"Could try. Nothing wrong with that." Alvin smiled. "Yeah. I'm somewhere in the middle. My older brother is here but my sister goes to Beauxbatons and everyone else is either too old or too young for school." He laughed at her sicky face. "I take it Markov's your brother. Isn't it weird having your best friend dating your brother?? I know i'd find it weird. If they split up it could get awkward." He couldn't help but feel that way. It was just how he was.
 
Ivana giggled. "It wouldn't be awkward. Shay would beat up Markov and Markov just would ignore her and not go to her house. They wouldn't be around each other enough for it to be awkward." She stood up and moved so she was sat next him leaning on the tree. It was more comfortable somehow.
 
Alvin shrugged. "Well, they'd be fighting and you'd have to be stuck in the middle. Either that or you'd have to pick between your best friend and your brother." Alvin wasn't exactly an expert on relationships but he guessed that this was how things worked.
 
Ivana shook her head and leant on his shoulder, she was quite sleepy all of a sudden and he was the right height. "No, they both know not to involve me. I'm the only person both of them are against hurting or involving. Seriously, if Shay heard what Mark did, well, lets just say he wouldn't be healed yet." She giggled, Shaylah took somethings too seriously but she liked it, it was how Shaylah was.
 
Alvin smiled when she leant on him but he was starting to feel nervous. He wasn't used to this sort of behaviour. All the same, with out even thinking, he put his arm around her. "Apparently, I need to stay on the good side of her then." He laughed and looked down at Ivy. "Is she really that bad?? Like beating people up I mean."
 
Ivana snuggled in his shoulder, this was normal behavior for her. "Yeah, she's really angry at the moment. You know, because of Jay. She's taking it out on everyone but hopefully she'll calm down a bit. I know Syddy has to pull her off of some people quite literally." She shivered, it was cold here, not like New Zealand, it was spring there.
 
Alvin's eyes widened. "Christ." He now wasn't sure whether he wanted to meet her not. He didn't feel like getting beaten up by a girl. "How old is she?? And who's this Syddy person??" Alvin felt her shiver so he started rubbing her arm to keep her warm. Not that it would do much but it was worth a try.
 
Ivana hugged into him more. She would probably go and put on some tights soon. "She's same age as me. Don't worry, you're family, she can't hurt you." She smiled up at him. "Syddy is her older half sister. Tracy's oldest child. Sydney." She quite liked Sydney from what she had met of her and heard but she didn't know much yet.
 
Alvin frowned. "What do you mean by she 'can't' hurt me. Am I not the same as everyone else??" He thought there had to be some logic in ths somewhere but at this oment in time, it was hiding from him. "It's good that she's not by herself though. She has someone there to help her."
 
Ivana nodded. "She doesn't hurt family." It was hard to explain Shaylah to someone who hadn't met her. She was a complicated girl. "You'll see what I mean when you meet her." Ivana then nodded to his next statement and yawned, snuggling closer to Alvy and closing her eyes.
 
Alvin smiled. "That makes sense. It's cool that she cares about her family enough to be like that." He rested his head on top of hers and held her close. This was unlike Alvin altogether. He usually wimped out at the sight of girls.
 
Ivana smiled and kept her eyes closed, still shivering slightly, and nodded. "Mhmmm." Alvy was very warm. His neck was more than his shoulder. Ivana quickly nuzzled her nose into his neck. Still, this was normal for her.
 
Alvin turned his head and accidentally kissed her cheek. "Oh. Umm. Sorry." His cheeks turned pink. "I...uh. I didn't mean to do that." He laughed slightly at his own stupidness. He could be clumsy at the best of times.
 
Ivana smiled. "I don't mind." Her voice was dreamy as she yawned again. "It's better than sticking your tongue down my throat." She giggled and sat up from his shoulder, his arm still around her, and yawned again. "I think I didn't have enough sleep last night. Or my cartwheels wore me out loads."
