Fire Melts Ice
She had been awake all through the stormy night. Today was the day she would be going back to Hogwarts. She could barely keep her eyelids open, but she could not wait to see her friends. She slowly climbed out of her warm heaven of a bed. Her mother was at the doorframe, with their ritual hot chocolate.
"I can't believe this is my last year at Hogwarts.And getting to be Head Girl too! " The fact that had caused Aceline to toss and turn the night before. She still hadn't completely grasped the concept of this being her last morning before Kings Cross hot chocolate with her mother.
"You've grown up too fast." Flavia said, smiling at her only daughter, handing her the still hot mug of hot chocolate. Receiving a smile in return for the hot chocolate. "This has all gone by way too fast."
"Ah. Don't remind me. All I have to do is put up with that ferret Malfoy and his idiot Slytherins for one more year. I am going to miss getting to wander that castle though. Oh! And the library. I don't think there's another place in the entire wizarding world with a bigger collection of books." Aceline sighed. She sure was going to miss Hogwarts.
"Well honey, you should go pack up your trunk if you want to make it to Kings Cross in time. And don't forget to pack everything for Path. You know how she gets when you forget her things." Flavia was right. Aceline, of course being the lazy one, had thought if she put off packing by hand, as they weren't allowed to use magic outside of Hogwarts yet, her mother would willingly do it by magic.
"Oh no! I won't have time to meet Hermione at the station beforehand. She'll be so disappointed. Especially since this is our last year getting on the Hogwarts Express together." Aceline sighed, batting her eyelashes a bit.
"Fine! Since its your last year going to Hogwarts, and because I wouldn't want dear, sweet Hermione to be disappointed. Just go get ready; I'll take care of your luggage."
Flavia got up to take the dishes from their hot chocolate to the kitchen.
It works every time. Aceline went into her bedroom to get ready. Putting on a pair of grey skinny jeans, a white empire waisted top and a pair of outrageous red leather boots.
She went into the bathroom next to put on makeup she really didn't need. A simple line of black kohl around her eyes and some pomegranate-apple lip-gloss. She left her chocolate brown hair to curl naturally down her back in ringlets.
She went back into her bedroom to make sure everything had been packed. Her cat Path was very stubborn, just like her, and was very particular about who handled her. If you tried to get anywhere near her she would nip and bite at any bit of flesh she could get at. Path was a beautiful Persian with light blue eyes and a fluffy white and cream coat.
Seeing that everything was in order she went to find her mother so they could begin making their way to Kings Cross.
She found her mother in the kitchen talking with her father. Liam had always been distant towards her. Aceline always thought that it had something to do with the fact she had such a passion for magic.
"Mother, if we don't leave soon I'm going to be late in meeting Hermione. And Head Girls can't be late!" Aceline reminded her mother of the plans that had got her out of packing to begin with .
"Ill go start the car. Say goodbye to your father and then come out, alright?" Flavia was always pushing Aceline and Liam to be closer to each other. It seemed that they were magnets, Flavia could push them together, but once she let go, they flew apart.
"Alright, leave Path here though, she's in a bad mood." Path had left chew marks on her ancient alarm clock out of annoyance.
Aceline thought that she would just give her father the hug and a kiss on the cheek and make a dash for it, but instead he motioned for her to sit at the seat across from him at the kitchen table.
" There's a reason that I tried to refuse magic." Liam was not one to actually talk about magic, let alone his own magic.
"Before your mother was pregnant with you, a prophecy was made." Aceline was getting confused now. She had been told that he had just wanted to focus on being normal for his muggle clientele.
"The prophecy said that a daughter, conceived on the day that you were, would go through the flames of hell to melt the boy whose heart was made of ice. I figured that if I could give up my magic, you wouldn't be part of that world. That maybe that girl couldn't be you. When you get to Hogwarts, go find Albus Dumbledore. Right away, he'll explain what I cannot." Aceline was in shock.
This was getting weird, and fast.
