Oh, and don't forget to slip a review, thanks 8)
Dominique had an epiphany one day while eating cereal-an epiphany she was glad had come.
Chomp...
"Oh, your sister is beautiful, flawless even..."
Dominique's eyebrow twitched in remembrance at the one time-or the many times-adults had complimented her "flawless" sister, Victoire.
Chomp...
"I worry for Dominique. How will she live up to the perfect Victoire?"
Her "friends" had said this another time behind her back.
Clink.
Her spoonful of corn flakes hit the milky bowl when she had the realization. Ever since Dominique had been growing up, people-adults and friends-had fed her lines, always comparing her to her "perfect" sister." She was young and naïve, believing the words of strangers she had only met once. Those people's words then affected her when she grew older-making Dominique live the life of a clichéd move: living in the shadow of her perfect sister...
It was kind of ironic because Victoire wasn't perfect at all-after all, Dominique had had enough fights with her sister to know. Clenching her teeth, Dominique had had enough of people's false words. No more! She thought to herself, a state of zen coming on.
Somewhere in her heart she felt that she was really moving on.
Dominique smiled, glad that her head was slowly clearing of the past, knowing that she could move on-not continue living in the shadow of her sister. She couldn't wait for her sister to come home so she could give her a big hug-showing that she loved her and that she was glad that she was alive. Dominique grew impatient as she glanced up at the clock in her room. It had already been a half an hour and Victoire had not been back-where was she?
To distract herself, Dominique turned on the radio and listened to some cheesy pop song. Even though the lyrics were awful, her ears were content with the beat. As her stomach growled, she took a few more bites of her cereal. The song overpowered her and Dominique quickly broke into a dance full of stirring emotions she could not hide: happiness, wisdom, satisfaction, and love. As she twirled around with the cereal bowl in hand, Dominique let loose-quite the opposite of her reserved self. She didn't stop to think twice-even though she was surprised with a bubble of emotion.
As Dominique waved her arms, some cereal spilled out of the bowl. She didn't care because spilling cereal was...
"This is worth the watch."
Dominique stopped as soon as she heard another voice in the room-more specifically, Teddy Lupin.
Oh Merlin...
Dominique set down the bowl and walked to forward to Teddy. "What are you doing here?"
"I was looking for you sister, but I got another treat." Dominique clenched her fist, her feelings of happiness were being trampled by the smug expression on Teddy's face.
"Well, sad to say she isn't here. Now, if you will, please leave." She tried to be patient with him but his smug expression didn't last-it disfigured into a bundle of howling laughter.
"Teddy! Get out!" She slammed the door, angry because Teddy could use what he saw to blackmail her. She went to the window to make sure he really was leaving-he was, but he was still laughing. Doninique wished for her sister to get home quicker, hoping her feelings of appreciation were still there. It was kind of hard to wait when an arrogant jerk had just seen her dancing with a bowl of cereal in hand. With the embarrassing thoughts in mind, Dominque blushed.
"What kind of treat am I?" Dominique whispered to herself in confusion as she looked out the window once more. Teddy smirked as he got on his broom. As he started to fly away, his vibrant turquoise hair shimmered-it was laughing at her as well. Dominique knew he wouldn't let the moment go-no, he would be back.
But would he be back for Victoire or another accidental treat? Dominique cupped her face in embarrassment even though no one was there. She jumped out of her thoughts when she heard the crackle of her cereal.
Metaphorically, the crackling cereal was how Dominique felt inside-explosive.
