- if Aroha hadn't been killed, this would (probably) be what her fifth year (which she should have just finished) would have ended like. enjoy.
Making a note to owl and check that her troubled cousin was still hanging in there, Aroha strolled up the winding stairs to her dormitory and threw her things on her bed. The room was messy, and the other bed was currently unoccupied. The girl Aroha had shared with had dropped out of Hogwarts, unable to handle the stress of OWL year. The Prefect knew she needed to start packing, but settled for using her wand to levitate things around the room instead. Of course, that made more of a mess. Giggling from her crosslegged position on her bed, Aroha opened her wardrobe with magic. It was a complete miracle that the door remained on it's hinges. Her trunk sat on the floor underneath various dresses and tops, half-full of junk that she really didn't need any longer. Tess will kill me if I don't get rid of that all, Aroha reminded herself, pulling herself up to go and throw screwed up parchment at the dustbin. She plunged her ink-stained hand into the trunk, pulling out a photo of her trip to Twizel after third year. She, Olive, Benny and David were standing in the plaza, in front of a Native garden. Smiling at the memories, the photo was placed on the carpeted floor beside her and Aroha reached into the trunk again, this time looking at what she was doing. A wad of parchment and paper were first to be binned, then her Divination notes (good riddance!) and a watch that had gotten wet and couldn't be repaired. Half a quill was extracted from underneath a pair of rarely worn shows and chucked in the bin before Aroha found a letter from her ex-boyfriend. It was all sappy and asking for them to get back together. Her expression seemed a little more sour as Aroha tucked her hair back behind her ear and binned the rest of the contents of the truck, picking out only a comb and a galleon. The Gryffindor bit her lip and began stacking books into the trunk, putting shoes and smaller bags into the surrounding spaces. She picked out outfits for the next few days and packed the rest of the clothes, her broomstick and her cat's basket- her feline friend could sleep on the four-poster with her. Feeling accomplished at the job being almost completed, Aroha returned to her bed and wondered where her cat had run off to. She grinned emptily as she dozed off, somewhat shattered from late nights of studying as soon as her head hit the feather pillow.
