First Stop

[Sara Benivieni]

Sara didn't know why she had signed up for this whole flower delivery thing, but she figured she would at least start to know other students a little more, even if only by face or whether they were much older than her. She was unfamiliar with all of the people she had to deliver roses to, except for her friend Geo who she had to give a rose to after the next person. Now though, she had taken a chance and gone straight to the seventh floor corridor, there were so many stairs, and once she retrieved her breath, cupped her hands around her mouth and shouted "MADELINE WALDEN! IF YOU ARE HERE, PLEASE COME OVER," Sara paused as she looked around her at the very annoyed students, but how else was she meant to do this? "I HAVE A DELIVERY!"​

The Semester had started again and already Maddie was completely behind on all of her subjects. She managed to heave her bag full of books from the Library up to the seventh floor, albeit very slowly, and was looking forward to lying on her bed for a while. However, before she could do that there was a younger girl shouting her name, very loudly, so she quickly walked over to her "I'm Maddie" she replied "what is it you have for me?"

Sara breathed a sigh of relief that she wouldn't have to shout for much longer because the older girl she was looking for approached her and Sara smiled at her, showing her the rose she had for her. "I'm meant to give this rose to you," she told her, extending her hand that held the red rose expectantly. "Oh, right and this too," the first year found the note and gave that to Madeline as well.</SIZE> ​

Spoiler: Message

Maddie,

He isn't good enough for you

Maddie smiled at the younger girl and took the red rose from her. Red meant only one thing and that was love! So the Gryffindor was fully expecting the rose to be from Aion. "Is there a message?" she asked the younger girl, eagerly and soon enough the girl produced a little card with a message on. Maddie took it and quickly scanned the paper but it soon became apparent that it clearly wasn't from Aion. She flipped it over to see if there was anything on the back but it was empty. "Was there nothing else with this?" she demanded, showing the first year the card. Maddie felt increasingly sick as she read over the card a couple more times as she waited for an answer from the first year. "He isn't good enough for you"?? Who on earth had the right to say that to her, and send it with a rose aswell! She was beginning to grow angry. Aion was the best person that she had the privilege of being with and she couldn't stand to see him slandered in that way.

The sudden change between the girl's cheerful smile and her demand of whether there was anything else with the card unsettled Sara a little, because she was still very young and the idea of anonymous romance bothered her. If she didn't have any idea whatsoever with regards to who'd sent it - because the message shown on the card and the girl's expression was obvious enough to that fact. "No, I'm sorry," Sara looked at her sadly. If only she could help her find out who it was, but the problem was that the Italian brunette didn't know anyone, not even people from her twin siblings' or Leo's grade. "We weren't given any other information about the sender."​

Maddie huffed and rolled her eyes when the younger girl said that she couldn't offer any other information about the rose or the card. She was so frustrated with the situation, she didn't particularly want to unleash her temper on the young girl in front of her so she decided to remove herself from the situation instead. "Okay" she said through clenched teeth "thanks for... this" she finished as she turned on her heel and stomped all the way back to the Gryffindor Common Room.
