He leaned his head in her shoulder, mind racing. Sight. Eyes. I had it. I should have peeked. Just a few seconds, seen what it was like. I must have; that's exactly what I'd do...

"That's cool. At least she's not angry anymore."

"Yeah," she murmured. "I can't tell her about the other timeline though, can I? I mean, she deserves to know in a way, but I feel like it would creep her out a lot."

"I don't know. If she ever finds out, she'll be crushed by the fact that you kept it from her."

"But she died," Tessa murmured. "How do I even begin to explain that to her? Only you, Giovanni and I know, so as long as we manage to keep it to ourselves, everything should be fine, shouldn't it?"

Nicolas shrugged. "Your choice, I guess."
Suddenly, there was a tap on the window. Standing outside of it was June, sat atop her broomstick.

Tessa jumped, holding back an expletive. "It's okay, it's just June," she told Nic, placing her hand over his briefly before getting to her feet to open the window. I suppose this means that they've found her.

June climbed in through the window, dusting off her coat. "Hello, Tessa, Nicolas. I've got... News."'

"We know," she said, tone slightly blunt. "I was there."

June raised her eyebrows at her goddaughter, a shadow of a smile flirting across her features. It was quickly replaced with her grim, dark expression. "That saves me a painful explanation. At any rate, I just returned from informing your parents. They want you to stay with them for a bit, mourn as a family. Hogwarts has given me permission to take you there."

"Now?" She asked, slightly startled. "I can't go back now, I have a lunch date with Bianca tomorrow."

She closed her eyes, brow furrowing. "Alright, I'll come." I hope Bianca isn't too upset. I'm sure she'll understand.

June glazed around the common room, locating the fireplace and removing a small bag from her pocket. "Alright. We'll be getting there by Floo Powder."

Tessa nodded. "I'll just get my stuff," she said, voice trembling. She touched Nic's shoulder gently. "Could you let the others know why I've gone?"

She leaned in to kiss his cheek swiftly, a light blush forming as she hurried up to her dormitory to gather her essentials.

June felt a smile tug at the corner of her lips as Nicolas flushed scarlet. Tessa was just like Izzy, especially in the ways she'd show affection.

Tessa returned a few minutes later, trunk trailing behind her. She managed a smile as Nutmeg rubbed against her leg, a final thought coming to her. "Oh! If the wigs arrive when I'm gone, just toss them on my bed, please."
