Temperance Booth sat in her room thinking about how little time was left in summer when an owl flew into her open bedroom window, the owl flew over to her desk and dropped a letter there, leaving as quickly as it came. Temperance rolled onto her back and jumped off of her bad, walking over to the letter she thought it would be from one of her friends sending her a letter. As she approached her desk she saw the Hogwarts stamp on the envelope. As soon as she realized what the letter was she closed the space between the desk and her within seconds. Snatching up the letter she also picked her Slytherin letter opened, gifted to her by her parents, and opened the letter. She squealed a little ad she read threw the letter. She had no negative thought in her mind she would be accepted to Hogwarts, she was still excited to know that she was finally a student in the famous school. Her older brother Michael was going into his 4th year this year. He, like their parents, is in Slytherin, Tempe knew she would also be accepted into Slytherin when the time came to be sorted. As the joy filled her body she skipped out of her room and down the hall to her brothers.
She walked into her brother's room like it was her own and found him reading his own letter filled with the supplies needed for this school year. "So I'm guessing you just got your acceptance letter?" Michael said lifting his eye's from the paper and to his little sister. As he looked at her he wasn't joyed at all she was going to Hogwarts with him. This year not only would he have to do his own thing but watch out for her. She was a drop dead gorgeous young girl and he knew all the guys would be on his little sister.
"Yeah! I'm super excited to know that we are going to be going to school together. " Tempe said with a smile running over to her brother and jumping onto him. Since Michael was very strong because of Quittich his body didn't budge or belt under his sister. "So Mikey will you take me with you to Diagon Alley to help me get my school supplies?" She asked clinging on to her brother's neck. Temperance looked up to her older brother very much. They were very close even though they were 3 years apart. She could talk to him about anything. She hoped that he would still be nice to her once they were at Hogwarts.
"Yeah Tempe just let me get ready. Be ready in a hour and meet me down stairs at the fireplace." Michael said putting his little sister down. Tempe was about 5'2 so Michael standing at 6'4 towered over his little sister.
"ok." Temperance said walking out of the room and down the stairs to inform her parents she received her letter. As she walked into the kitchen she found her mother. "Hello mother, Michael and I both got our letters so we will be going to Diagon Alley to get our supplies if you are ok with it." Temperance said to her mother who was currently chopping up apples to make her famous apple pie.
"Ok just be back before dinner, also have Michael come and talk to me before you both leave. " She said no taking her eyes off of her apples. Temperance smiled at her mother even though she knew her mother wouldn't notice. As she walked back up to her room she couldn't think of what to do. She had been up for a while now and was already dressed and ready to go out. Entering her room she switched on her stereo and put in her Korn CD. Her interest in music defiantly wasn't boring. She had a very eclectic taste for music. Anything that had a beat or a lyric that made in think or like she added it to her long list of music. Turning the music up the loudest it would go she turned to her window and looked out into the back yard. The setting sun glinted off the pool and lite up the tree line of the yard. Tempe loved this house. She had lived here all of her life and couldnt amagine living any place else, other than Hogwarts. Of all the stories her parents and brother told her, and the pictures she saw of the school she could tell there was something enchanting and tracing about the place. She couldnt wait to see the school in person.
Time flew by as Temperance stared out the window thinking about Hogwarts and how much fun she was going to have, before she knew it her brother was knocking on her door yelling threw it. "Come on Tempe you wanted to come with me! If you dont hurry up I'm going to leave you here." Tempe snapped out of her thoughts and ran to the door flinging it open. "Finally." He said turning his back to her and started down the hallway to the Fireplace/ sitting room. She followed in his footsteps as they went threw the house. Coming to the Fire place room she walked into the fireplace and stood next to her brother, who had a handle full of floo powder. "Diagon Alley!" She yelled once they were both body warmed as the Flames engulfed her, she felt herself fall forward once she landed on flat solid ground, she was never good at the whole travel by floo powder thing. She knew her butt would soon hit hard cement, but instead she fell into strong arms. She knew it couldn't be her brother because he wouldn't have had enough time to see her fall and catch her.
Her eyes floated up to see who saved her butt from the hard pavement. He was a blonde guy with piecing blue eyes that she felt could see right into her soul. The guy was looking down into her eyes for only a second then he helped her to her feet and looked at my brother. "Hey Michael, how was your summer?" He asked with a crooked smile. "This must be the little sister I hear a lot about." He said looking at her again with more of a gentle smile.
"Hey Draco, I'm summer was pretty much amazing went on a ship played quittich you know the norm. Yeah this is Temperance my little sis, but everyone calls her Tempe." Michael said revealing the hot guys name. Michael looked at her sister and saw lust in her eyes. 'Oh great,' he thought, 'my little sis has a thing for my best friend.' "Would you like to join us on our little shopping trip?" Michael asked Draco as he started to walk into the alley.
"Yeah I don't see why not, me and you have to get the same school stuff anyways. So Tempe huh? I think I like Temperance better... Its more exotic and really rare name." Draco said looking down at Tempe. Sometimes she hated being so short, almost everyone she knew was taller then her by at very least an inch.
