Cecily made her way hurridley up the stairway to the owlery, clutching a letter close to her heart in her small hands, tears just starting to brim on the edge of the usually cheerful girls eyes. It had been months since she'd talked to her brother, her best friend, and she desperately needed him now. With motions made clumsy by her haste she tied a letter to the leg of her small owl Hermes, whispering to him to take good care of the letter meant for her brother at Durmstrang.

Dear Jake,

God I miss you. I hate to admit it, but I really really miss you. For the first time I feel my age. I'm a scared little twelve year old completely lost without the guidance of her big brother and best friend. I know you'll tease me later for this, and probably tell all the guys back home what a wuss thier little dodger is being, but frankly, I could care less. I don't fit here Jake. Everyone's so.... different. I don't fit in with the first years and none of the older students want to be friends with a little kid. I wish I had known that hanging out solely with your friends... well, our friends really, but people older than me... would turn me into such a social recluse in the end. I've already made an enemy of some bratty little b!tch in slytherin who thinks she's better than everyone else. Luckily I haven't seen her lately or I swear I'd hit that smug grin off her face. I made cheer squad. I guess thats kind of cool, but we haven't had any prctices yet or anything. I just don't know what to do Jake. I miss you and I have no idea whats going on in your life now. I need my best friend back :( (yes, that would be you brother dearest)

Sincerely,
Your sister
 
Jake sat in his dorm when he got the letter. At first he grinned, knowing he only got letters off of his little sister but the grin disappeared as he read through it. He immediately found some ink and parchment and wrote back. He hated his sister being like this, she was normally happy, well, as happy as she could be when he teased her.

Cecily,

Don't talk like that, you don't suit it. Have a little hunt around, you were placed in the house for a reason so there must be people in there you can relate to. I know loads of people down here that would love you to come to Durmstrang if Hoggies doesn't work out but I get the feeling they aren't all reasons I would approve of.

If you needed to know what's going on with me all you had to do was ask. I met two new guys, they joining our little gang of guys. Mark Stone and Kenny Hickman-Vallender. They're cool, Kenny may need a bit of persuasion for the nastier pranks but Mark is raring to go. Also, I met a girl. A real one this time, she goes to Hoggies. Do you know her? Kasey Carla? Appart from that nothing else has happened.

I'll always be here to talk to or annoy you whenever you need me sis.

Your amazingly awesome brother.
 
Jake,

Good to know you haven't lost your cockiness. God, will you ever learn that the world does not actually revolve around you? I'm trying to fit here, its just.... I dunno. I guess I always had you to lead the way before. Now I have to make it on my own, and its weird. I miss mom alot these days, she always knew just what to do. I guess we can't change the past though. Just kind of have to muster through. So, there are people that would like me at Durmstrang eh? What are these reasons you, of all people, don't approve of?

Good to hear your getting new recruits. Without me around you need someone to train and pick-on. Mark sounds cool, and I'm sure Kenny will come around. You're pretty convincing when you want to be. God, I miss pranking! I need to start that up here. Got any ideas to get me started?

Sooooo, you met a real girl eh? You sure she isn't in your head? Nah, I'm kidding. Apparently you can get any girl you want (gag me). Don't see why, but you are my brother, so you must have some attractive qualities. Kasey Carla.... hmmm... I think I've heard of her. Is she in Slytherin? If so she might not like me as I'm a Gryffie, but I can track her down if you'd like. Anything for you bro! haha. So what else is going on? What nasty tricks are you pulling? Let me know! I want details here! My life is freakishly dull, I need some entertainment!

Your considerably cooler sister
 
Cecy,

Of course I won't, we all know the world does revolve around me. I rock that much. Ah, you know I'm kidding you sis. I''m still here if you need me, think of it as branching out by yourself. If you really hate it you could ask dad to transfer at the end of the year. But I don't think that's a good idea. What do you think the reasons are sis, they all want you and not for your personality. Blame Markov for that (He's the one in third year) though apparently his father has found him a fiance he approves of.

Mark is, he tried to beat me up when I first found him, he's like thirteen or something like that. He only won because of my blooming ribs. Kenny likes the idea of pranks so I think he can be convinced, and he seems to idolize me which i don't mind at all.

I think she was a Ravenclaw, I don't know. She's around my age, looks pretty responsible. She's really pretty sis, I had to tell myself off for drooling. Do you know how often that happens to me? Never, it NEVER happens to me. And she was interesting, personality wise. I did even kiss her Cecy, I don't know what's going on.

I haven't really done anything since Christmas, now that I think about it, I haven't pulled a prank since I met Kasey. She is in my head sis, I can't get her out. Help me would you. I've kissed tow girls since then and they both bored me.

Your confused but still much cooler brother.
 
Broseph (I was trying to think of something clever to call you....thats the best I got)

You know dad would never let me do anything I wanted. He like, hates me. Jerk. He can bite it for all I care. I'm so offing myself if dad or Grandmother try to make me someones fiance. NOT HAPPENING. And besides Jake, who doesn't want me? I'm freaking fantastic in all aspects.

You got beat up by a thirteen year old?! Excuse me while I laugh myself to death. Dude, you gotta keep up the rep, no losing to kiddies. Of course you don't mind people idolizing you. You think your God or something. Which, ya know, I'm fine with as long as you realize I'm better :p

Now on another note. A Revenclaw?! Jake, what are you thinking? Oh yeah, clearly you're not. You never do. Are you sure that's a good idea though? I'm so not approving if she's a stick in the mud. I'll try and find her for myself though. I need to see what this girl is like. Since when do you care if a girl is interesting? You're going soft on me here Bro. Getting beat up by a thirteen year old and drooling over some chick? SO not the brother I know and love. She better be worth it.

If you really like this girl go for it. As much as I tease you, you are pretty awesome. Any girl would be lucky to have you. Just... don't let her change you. It's ok to grow up a little, but I still need my goofy Jake around. Also still need a prank idea! And really Jake, think about it, you being bored by girls is not all that suprising. No one can keep up with you really. Just remeber to have fun. You're still young, and you only live once.

Your sister who is obviously cooler because she hasn't been beaten up by a thirteen year old
 
Cece

First of all, I didn't get beaten up by a thirteen year old. I carried him on my shoulder and he got in a lucky kick to my bad rib. That isn't getting beaten up.

Secondly I'm sure dad wouldn't mind if I said you could come, you know I can word things to make them sound appealing to him. You just tell him how much you love the place and I'll mention how it's hell at Durmstrang and then, if I ask him nicely, he's bound to say yes.

Third, I'm not going soft! So maybe I decided I liked a girl because she's interesting, I guess I forgot to mention she's fit as well. She ain't a stick in the mud either, she looked like she could have fun. Maybe. I'm sure I could get her too.

Prank ideas, hmmm, how about semi permanent hair dye? stink bombs? The usual line of things or were you thinking of something a little more extravagant?

your brother who DIDN'T get beast up at all just got a kick in the rib.
 
Jay,

Suuuuuuuuure it was. I'm gunna have to meet this Mark fellow, perhaps we can team up. I'll try and tough it out here at hoggies, but keep that plan in mind just in case. As long as you can get her to have fun, I suppose she's alright. I haven't picked out just one person to prank yet, I was thinking maybe something a little more extravagant, something to establish myself here at school. Then maybe I'd feel better about this whole thing. OH! I got an O in potions by the way, so obviously I'm a genious. Have you heard from dad at all by the way? I have no clue what that man is doing.... not that that's anything new, but seeing as he made me spend christmas with the she-demon (otherwise known as Grandmother) I haven't even seen him in oh... bout six months. I'm still tracking this Kasey girl down fyi. Come visit me!

Your genious sister, Ceccy
 
Cece,

You can try teaming up0 but you wont win, he only got a lucky shot and your to short to do any real damage.
Hmm, that sounds like something I'd have to think over, maybe ask the guys. Oh yeah, The guys say hi and Markov says hey babe. No, I haven't heard from dad at all yet since I got back to school, I spent Christmas at home, roaming the town.

How about you tell me when your next Brightstone weekend is and I'll come down and meet you? That a good idea? Maybe we can talk pranks while I'm down.

Your amazingly amazing awesomness brother, Jay
 
Jay,

That would be awesome! I'll tell you as soon as I figure out when that is. Oh, and you were right, Kasey is a Ravenclaw. Not sure I approve yet however. Lay off the short comments! For all you know I've grown like, two feet since I've been here. And taked up karate.... and am just basically a total bad a$$. Tell the guys I say hey, and tell Markov he has not earned the right to refer to me as babe and can therefore shove it. But I mean that lovingly of course.

Your beautiful, intelligent and witty sister, Cecily
 
Cece,

You could've grown and learnt karate and become a bad @$$ but we both know you haven't. The guys laughed and Markov has vowed to call you babe for eternity now. It was quite funny to see how many times he could fit the word babe into a sentence while describing you.

Why don't you approve, she's well awesome. And fit, she's fit too. She's all round awesomeness. Just give her a chance, besides, worst comes to worse and I continue playing with the ladies I have. I was told I could ask anything of one girl. Literally. She said anything.

Your amazing awesome brother, Jake
 
Jay,

Shut up, you know I've always been B.A. You're just jealous that your younger sister is so freakishly awesome. I swear I'm just going to kill Markov one of these days. I do however wish I could have heard what he was saying. I say I dont approve because she's making you act like a ninny and I just don't really like Ravenclaws in general for the most part. Most of them are WAY too serious and SO not what I see you with. If you really like her I'll give this girl a chance. Do you even still talk to her really? Just how many ladies DO you have these days? Your such a ho :p On the last note, WHAT?!?! Is this girl completely nuts? She really said anything? Oh God. What are you gunna make her do? I hope you make it good.

Your much awesomer sister, Cec

P.S. I still say we could take you
 
Cece,

Okay, I'll let you have B.A but you definitely don't know karate and you're certainly not taller. There's no way you could take me, he's probably freeze up around you, he sees the kind of guy who doesn't consider ladies as the rest of our guys do. You know, you're right, I should probably owl her shouldn't I.

Do you know what's annoying? Everybody seems to be stuck on family questions, whenever I meet someone new, the first thing they ask me about is my family. It's getting weird.

Ladies wise, let's see. I have Luna Cameron (Yes, the sister of the bloke who through a book at me in fifth year), umm I snogged that girl Moko (the one who said anything. Well, her roomates are doing her work and tidying for her for ages, I guess she just chose a bad choice of words. I haven't decided what to do with her yet, she seems pretty awesome, in the way the guys are not the way ladies are if you get me?

Your way awesomererererer brother, Jay
 
Jay,

Alright, I'm not taller, and I dont know karate, but I'm sure some of my cheerleading moves could come in handy in said situation. And we'll just have to see about the little guy, yeah? I'm sure I could train him.... haha, kidding bro.
If your interested in this girl you should DEFINATELY owl her you great idiot. If she really means that much to you I'll try and help you out on this end.

Only two right now? huh, I'd have thought more. :p Let me guess, the Luna thing ticks her brother off and your just loving every second of it? I get what you mean about Moko, and I guess if she's awesome you can go a little easier on her. Who knows, maybe she'll even turn into a friend.

On another note, I think I've found an accomplice or two on the whole pranking front! Now we just have to figure out what to do. I'm making some friends here too. Two of my room-mates are pretty cool, though this Aspen girl seems a little off her rocker lately. Then there's Jude, whose really fun but seems to have disappeared as of late. Probably got a girlfriend or something. Oh! I almost forgot to tell you! I also sorta made friends with Kiera Kingsley, you know, the one engaged to James Potter? She's that gymnast I really liked and used to watch on TV all the time. Totally met her in real life, she's even helping me out with some stuff. Hopefully things will keep getting better over here. I still miss ya Jay.

Your fantastic sister, Cece

P.S. Tell Markov how desperately I miss him! *rolls eyes in sarcassm*
 
Cece,

No, you should do that. I would pay to watch you teach Mark cheerleading activities, he's the kind of guy that probably would to be honest. At least, I think he is, He's pretty hard to guess at.

Okay, okay, I'm going to Owl her once I've written this okay? Really? You'll help? See, that's why I love you sis.

You got a bullseye. Thing is, she's the one that asked me out. I think she wants to annoy her brother as much as I do. It's amazing. Plus, she don't care if I flirt around or kiss other people. She is pretty awesome, I'll have to find her again so I can ask my favour of her. That is, when I get a favour to ask. You got any suggestions?

Oooh, Tell me about this accomplice of yours! Boy or Girl, come on Cece, I want dets. Wait, Kiera Kingsley, the fit gymnast? wow, everyone goes to Hogwarts don't they. How about you transfer here and hang with the boys and I'll go to Hogwarts and hang with her. Joking, that is seriously cool though.

Your amazing bro, Jay.

P.S. He laughed and said to tell you he's already taken.
 
Jay,

What?! The great love of my life taken? Whatever shall I do????? I shall die of the heartache, Just throw myself off the top of the astronomy tower!

Ok, on a more serious note, good, if you like her, owl her you damned fool. I saw her in the great hall earlier. Eating pretty light. Tell that girl she needs a better appetite! Just kidding. Of course I'll help Jay, I love ya kid! (yes yes, I know you're older than me and I should not be calling you kid, but shhhh). I'll probably try and poke around and find her this weekend. We'll see. And no worries bro, I won't tell her the truth about you *winks*

About Moko, maybe you could make her help you with some crazy prank? Something you couldn't do without her help? You could probably get one of the other guys really good with her help actually. Or that Kid whose sister your fooling around with who threw a book at your head. Have her pretend to stalk him or something, watch him get freaked. It may even distract him so that you have more time to do your thing with his sis. Merlin I'm awefil sometimes. What evs, it's why you love me.

It's a girl actually. Her names Bridget and she's my dorm mate. My age too, which is shocking. She has too brothers that died, so we've kinda... bonded. Jude will probably help out too if I can locate him at all. And yes Kiera Kingsley!I think we may even be getting to be friends, which is pretty fricken sweet. I've gone running with her even (before you ask,yes, she does look good in a tank top, as far as I can tell. Not all that great at judging other females) Don't even lie to me Jay, you just wanna come here to be around your precious Kasey. I do sometimes wish we could switch for the day though. I miss those boys. Just don't tell them, they already have big enough egos.

The most amazing sister ever, Cece
 
Cece,

Yeah he's taken, his dad's got him engaged to his sister's childhood friend. His sister's engaged too. Have you actually met Ivana? She's an interesting one.

I've owled her! Twice! I know about that, she got told she was fat so she's eating left. I think she is a bit dozy sometimes but she still rocks. Thanks Cece, this means alot. Oh, for the record, the guys areyour friends that I have to look after sometimes, keep in check you know the kind of thing. She said she wanted to meet you you know.

I dunno, I was thinking of letting her stew for a bit first. She may seem awesome but I think she may also be a criminal mastermind. Don't ask me why but I'm keeping an eye out for her.

Wow, what a perfect match you are. Maybe you should bring Bridget and the Jude guy down to Brightstone with you next time and meet us. I'm sure the guys will love to hang with fresh meat. Aw man, can you like video it or something? I totally wish I could watch the running, not for you obviously, for her.

The bestestestest brother in the world, Jay.
 
Jay,

First of all, you are such a perve. Of course I will not tape it.... my cell with the camera on it doesn't work here :p

And do what you will Jay, you always came up with far better plans that I ever could, though I admit that grudgingly. And you've owled her Twice now? That is shocking I must say. I'm proud of you big brother. I'll make sure to keep in mind that they're my friends, but I really think you're setting yourself up for failure here. I can just see this pack of lies crashing and burning. I am, however, your little sister, so I know you probably wont listen to me. If you like her though Jay, be sure not to hurt her, it will only hurt you more in the end. (Yeah, I know, I sometimes come up with creepy wise sayings. Can you believe I'm only 12?)

I'm sure I could bring Bridget down, as long as the boys promised to behave themselves. I can just see them eating the poor girl alive. She seems a little more fragile than I am. Jude, however, I still need to locate, but if I do I will definately bring him. I'll let you know once I talk to Kasey.

Your sister, who is clearly awesome as well as stunningly gorgeous, Cecily
 
Cece,

I swear you knew I was a perv, you should know me better than that if you think I wont find a way to watch.

Cece, to all your advice and stuff I have only one thing to say. not likely. I have thins all planned, I'm going to slide her in smoothly to the real me. Like I'm saying this now but, gradually, I'll start saying how they are pretty cool or how the guys are involving me or I'm getting pretty close until eventually I end up the real me without her realising I've changed that much. It'll take a while but I can do it. Just think of it as a long term plan, like the pranks we used to pull that took months setting up.

I'll make them behave, don't worry. So glad you're coming, you can meet Kenny and Kid, that's Mark's name so he doesn't get mixed up with Markov. Now, while the boys may be nice to her it won't stop me giving her the run down.

Your, somehow very tired bro, Jay.
 
Jay Jay,

haha, sorry bout that, I thought it sounded funny :D Whay are you tired? And also, I know your a total perv, I'm sure you'd come up with some way to watch if you really wanted to. How are things going with Kasey? I finally met her. SHe certaintly is friendly.

Sorry this letter so short. I've been swamped lately. I think I've been sick lately. My stomach keeps getting this weird flippy feeling all the time now. It's not anything terrible, it's just nothing I've felt before and therefore weird. I dunno. Brightstone weekend soon though! I'm so excited to see you and the boys, I can hardly wait.

Jay.... I have a question for you. How did you know you were really falling for someone? That they were special and worth you and that your just....crazy about them?

Your somewhat confused sister,
Cecily
 
Cece,

Things are going great with Kase, It is weird though, I've never liked someone who actually enjoys studing before. She is an oddball but I really like her.

Um, you kind hjust answered your own question. I felt all warm and fuzzy when I speak to her and my belly does flip flops thinking about her and I think about her loads. Why? Who's the lucky guy that has got your attension?

A very excitable Brother,
Jay Jay
 
Jay,

Sorry its been so long since I wrote and that this letter is so short, but I've had so much to do. And... the lucky boy is actually one of your no one. I like no one. That's just silly. Worry about your own girl. Whats going on with that? Am I meeting you and the boys in brightstone?

Love,

Cec
 
Cece,

Who is he? I can read words you have scribbled out. One of my what?

Well, I'm going on a date with her! I'm spending sunday with her, saturday I can spend with you and the guys.

Excitable brother, Jay
 
Jay,

Can't wait to see you big brother! Meet you and the boys at three broomsticks at like, 2? Don't forget I have to meet these new guys too.

I'm happy you and Kasey are going on a date! Thats crazy. She does know its a date, right? She doesnt seem like the kind of girl that would have agreed to go on a date with you. Haha, just kidding. Work that Kiernan charm and you'll have her in no time.

Why did you try to read the words I'd scribbled out? You freak. Don't worry about it Jay Jay, it's nothing serious enough for you to kill anybody yet anyway. Plus, my life is just a bog confusing mess.

Love ya bro! Can't wait to see you!

Your amazingly amazing sis, Ceccy
