Oh Hey, Looky there

[Stephanie Stark-West]

Stephanie Sienna Stark was not the normal sort of everyday girl to hang out in New Zealand randomly. She usually did most things for a reason and for today, a day that was only slightly breezy. Still she wore a jacket over her choice of clothing. She had been meaning to talk to Abby about the posibility of moving in with her and Jasper, but so far she hadn't gotten the chance to speak to her sort of aunt. It was weird when she thought about it. How her Uncle was dating Austiin, the brother of Abby. Now she was a Professor. Everyone was moving on and doing something, except for her. Even Speedy had a girlfriend or something. Mikayla was even living with them now. And Cameron and Austiin let her sleep with him in his room, well atleast they did when he was here and not in Egypt for a punishment. Steph rolled her eyes and walked out the door to the big house they had eventually decided to buy. She didn't mind it, it was a nice house and all, but she still didn't like having to live there. Her whole family consisted of, Austiin, Cam, Speed, Mikki, Jace, Tommy and Kylie. Not to mention all the friends that were there as well. She shook her head, walked down the road and apparated to her favourite place in the world. A park where she can sit down and just relax. Living in a house with alot of people, sometimes made her feel queasy.

After a while, Steph started to feel hungry so she decided that some food would be in order. She sighed and made her way to a small coffee house she knew. She used to go all the time when she was on Holidays from Hogwarts in Scotland. She and her friends, but not so much any more. Ever since Graduating last year, she hadn't been doing to much at all. She didn't even have a job, not that she really minded. Though she was thinking of going into some line of work. She nodded to a couple sitting in one of te chairs and kept walking. She went to the counter and ordered a cappucino before waiting at one of the spare tables. This place always smelt like cinnemon.

 

[Leigh West]

Leigh West had spent her morning sleeping, awaking in the afternoon feeling sleepier than ever. She remembered reading somewhere that oversleeping made you feel sleepier, which to her did not make since however it seemed that afternoon was her own personal proof to that theory. Rubbing an eye, Leigh showered, and quickly dressed, planning to take a walk to help wake up her tired mind. Skipping breakfast, Leigh rushed out her hotel room door, slinging her bag over her shoulder. Travelling around the world was a lot easier than Leigh first thought, the aid of apparition meant she did not have to worry about airfares like muggles had to. Food wasn't a worry either; Leigh had saved up enough money from working as a barista during the holidays before she graduated from Hogwarts Scotland, and she could eat wherever, and whatever she wanted, she could even go back home for a home cooked meal if she felt like it. With that organised thought prominent in her mind, Leigh smiled humbly to herself as she made her way down to the main street, where all the shops were placed one after another. The previous day she had scoped around the place, and nothing ticked her fancy, except for a small coffee shop that pleasantly smelt of cinnamon. Leigh planned to go there later when she felt her stomach rumble, but until then she was going to explore her surroundings further, and see if could find interest in something besides the coffee house. She thought it was amusing, how even after going on a holiday, she was still drawn to coffee.

After hopelessly walking around, Leigh gave up her fabled attempt to find a new place to spend her time, and retreated to the coffee shop. The chiming of a small silver bell rung in her ears as she walked in to the smell of cinnamon. The brunette quickly walked to the counter, ordering an espresso. The strong, but small hit of coffee would wake the witch up for sure. She paid for her coffee, and turned around to see the familiar face of a girl. Leigh knew her from somewhere, but unfortunately her mind was not awake enough yet to put two and two together to remember where she knew the girl from. After a few seconds of standing there gaping at the girl, Leigh's curiosity finally forced her to approach her, sitting down across the table from the familiar figure. "You look familiar, do I know you from somewhere?" Leigh uttered cheerfully, before sitting back and waiting for an answer.

OOC: This is blah and I'll add an outfit later!​

Apologies for this late reply

Stephanie smiled at the waitress as she brought her cappucino and sighed happily as she sipped it. She was definately glad that this place had such a good reputation when it came to the muffins and coffees and other sorts of things it sold. Even though she had very little to do these days, babysitting had somehow become the top of her agenda when it came to Tommy and Kylie. Then there was Mitchie who was like her cousin or something on Cam's mothers side. She shook her head it was all just too confusing these days. She got lost easily lost in terms of interconnecting livelihoods. She rolled her eyes and sighed as she looked around, only to see a girl, that she was sure she knew. She couldn't be sure how ever because she hadn't gotten a very good look at her. However, when the girl approached her Steph laughed at her forwardness before nodding at her and holding out her hand to shake. "Well, if you are Leigh West, then yes. We went to school together. I'm Stephanie Stark, nice to see you." She said as she placed her coffee on the table and folded her hands across her lap. It was something she used to do when in the school assemblies in the Great hall for all those meetings and other such things. "It's nice to see a familiar face after a while. So what did you end up doing after Graduation?" She asked as she leaned into her chair. She hoped Leigh had a more exciting life than herself. Even Speed had some excitement going on. And a girlfriend. She had been so sure that her twin was going to be the gay one in the family. However, now she found herself trying to discover her own sexuality. It was more than alittle bit frustrating.

It seemed like entire years had passed since she had been back in those wonderfully friendly walls. She had so enjoyed the times of trouble she and Speed had caused. She giggled slightly at the thought. She had been in Gryffindor and Speed was in Hufflepuff, but that definately hadn't stopped the two from sneaking out and trudging all through the castle and finding secret passages. She remembered that she and Leigh had never really spoken a great deal, but that would have been becasue of her brother complex, which was more than gone now. She hoped that seeing Leigh outside of school would allow them to properly get to know each other. She hadn't seen most of her friends lately and so she hoped to make a new one. Besides, atleast they had somewhere to start from, they already knew eachother. Well, sort of. "What brings you here on this... rather cold morning?" Stephanie asked tilting her head and sipping her cappucino.
