Protect Me, part 2! ;)
All of the other kids kept on whinning about how unfair and telling me how lucky I was that I got to miss a week of school, since they don't celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK.
Arthur Weasley agreed to drive me to the airport, he insisted on me telling him every little detail about airplanes.
Toby hadn't acted any different ever since that "episode" we had a number of days ago. So I just figured it was a scab, he didn't want me touching because it would hurt. When Mr. Weasley dropped me off I thanked him and then headed for the airport. Little did I know I was about to plunge head-first into a whole new set of problems...
"Do you need any help, sweetheart?" asked a flight attendant.
"No, thank you."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure."
"Where's your parents?"
"My dad's waiting for me at the gate once I get back New York."
"Who's taking you now?"
"Myself," I answered stiffly, starting to get annoyed.
"Without an adult? Are you sure you don't need any help."
"I'm fine!" I said through clenched teeth.
"There's my girl!" daddy exclaimed as I got off the plane.
"Daddy!" I ran into his arms like a five-year-old, I hadn't realized until then just how much I had missed him.
I started crying. "I love you so much! And I'm sorry I left even though you didn't want me to!"
"No, I'm sorry. You needed this, I was just being selfish trying to keep you all to myself. How's Toby been?"
Toby barked in delight, and jumped on my dad so hard, he fell down.
People were starting to stare at us. "Maybe we should talk more in the car," I sugguested.
As dad drove me to Allison's parents' zoo we talked the entire way.
"How did you like the room I got set up for you?"
"What ro-oh, the TV room! That was you!"
"Yeah, it took me a while to convince the school to let you have it. Apparently electricity goes crazy with magic. But I explained to them that most muggle children would die of bordom without electricity in their lives!"
I laughed. "You got that right!"
I know this was sort, I'll try to make the next longer. What do you think?
Any thoughts? Questions? Ideas? Critisism?
Let me know!
And leave review! ;)
