"Going for the straightforward." Queenie muttered. "I would've gone slow." "We can do magic and spells with our wands."
Tina demonstrated by waving her wand in the air and whispering "Wingardium Leviosa!" The vase Queenie had just fixed hovered above the wooden table, before Tina put it down. "Okay..." Amy nodded slowly, still not fully understanding. "Anyway, it's late and I think we should probably all get to bed. Amy you can sleep in here." Queenie yawned. She opened a sliding door to reveal a bedroom set up with two neat single beds. "Thank you." Amy said, too tired to say any more. She dragged herself in and flopped onto the bed. Amy had had the most tiring day. She had escaped weeping angels, basically died, creating a paradox, almost destroyed New York, come back to life, before being sent back to 1938. Not to mention, she had to say goodbye to her best friend. And her daughter. Amy sighed, wishing Rory was there. He would make it all better. Thick, hot tears streamed down her face. She sighed and wiped them away. She was exhausted, both emotionally and physically. The next few months are going to be very, very stressful. Amy decided, before slowly drifting off to sleep.
oOo
Queenie woke up early. She always did. Someone had to make breakfast. She dressed and enchanted the eggs to poach themselves. She went down to check their letterbox. The morning's frosty breeze nibbled at her feet as she opened the small red box. They had a single letter. Queenie turned the letter and almost jumped for joy when she saw who it was from. It was from Newton Scamander, Twenty-two Harlington Row, Cotswold, England. She just knew that Tina would shout in happiness when she saw this. Queenie ran upstairs to grab her letter opener. She carefully sliced the thick envelope open and pulled out the note. It read:
Dear Queenie and Tina, I sincerely apologise for not telling you this sooner but I have been very busy, making the finishing touches to my book. However, I am writing to tell you that I will be arriving in New York for a visit on the 17th of June to give you your own copy of my book. In person, like I promised. I was wondering if I could also stay with you, as I have no where else to stay. If you will let me stay please come to pick me up from dock 13 at 5:30 pm. If not, I can easily seek other accommodation. I hope you are well.
Yours truly, Newt Scamander.
Queenie sighed, happily. Tina would positively scream now. Then a stray thought floated into her mind and formed itself into an idea. What if she surprised Tina? The 17th of June was next Friday, so Tina would be home earlier. If Queenie picked up Newt and was home in time, he would be waiting there for her. Like a classic fairy tale. Queenie sighed happily at the idea. Then someone screamed.
