"I'm telling you, that shirt is so cute on you!" Evie angrily crossed her arms, wishing desperately that Heidi would let her put on her coat.
"I feel like a whore." She muttered.
"You look pretty." Heidi insisted.
How Evie had let her sister talk her into this, she would never know. They had barely made it to London in time for the game, but Heidi still insisted that she had to take Evie shopping. Evie personally found it unnecissary, but she hadn't seen her sister this giddy in weeks so she decided to let her do as she pleased. She had forced her down in the backseat and straighten her hair against her will. She then dragged her into some shop that smelled like a mixture of second hand smoke and some strong dope. Heidi had taste when it came to fashion, Evie would give her that, but she believed that her sister's sense of smell didn't exist. She had stuffed Evie into a pair of skinny leg hip huggers and black boots that went to her knee with an almost killer heel. After disagreeing for almost twenty minutes, Heidi had gotten her way and put Evie into a midnight blue silk shirt with a low V neck and slightly puffed sleeves at the shoulders. Heidi said that it was very antique looking, but when Evie looked down to see her breasts almost popping out, she had to disagree.
Evie shivered slightly as she began to take a faster pace towards the lit stadium.
"I cannot believe that I let you talk me into this." Evie muttered. Heidi rolled her eyes.
"You are such a drama queen. Why do you always have to make a big deal out of things when I'm trying to do something nice for you?" Evie pursed her lips together.
"I don't consider dressing somebody up like a hooker to be a nice thing." Heidi simply shrugged her shoulders.
"Let's just go sit down before you start throwing a hissy fit."
The two girls entered the stadium and instantly started climbing up flight after flight of stairs. By the time that they reached their assigned, pricy seats, they were both desperately gasping for air.
"Wearing hooker boots…not a good idea…when climbing stairs." Evie managed to pant out as she plopped down into the cushioned chair.
"Those are not hooker boots and they were very expensive for your information." Evie rolled her eyes.
"You got them for half price because that sales guy was higher than hell."
The two girls suddenly stopped their bickering when trumpets began to play, signaling the start of the game. The players slowly emerged from their respective locker rooms and the crowd began to cheer wildly. Evie leaned forward and squinted her eyes as the referee gave a brief overview of the rules to the players.
"I can't see a thing." She whispered. Heidi smirked as she gently patted Evie's head.
"Don't worry, you'll be seeing plenty in a minute."
The referee let out a shrill blow on his whistle and the players instantly took off into the air. The crowd went wild as the two teams flew a lap around the crowds and held out their hands to brush against their fingertips. Evie giggled slightly as she watched grown men jumping around with their faces painted bright matching colors to support their favorite teams. She was instantly swept up in pure wonder as the balls were let out of their trunk and went flying into the air. She and Heidi began to cheer for the players as the game began before their eyes.
"See, I told you that you'd be seeing plenty!" She exclaimed. Evie tossed back her hair as she and Heidi avidly watched the game. Heidi smirked, wrapping her arms around Evie's shoulders.
"Happy birthday Evie." She whispered into her ear. Evie smirked as they players flew past her face, making her hair fly out behind her.
"Thanks for this Heidi…I really do appreciate it." Heidi shrugged her shoulders, gently patting Evie on the back.
"It's my pleasure." She said simply. Evie started to clap and cheer for both teams, not knowing who was the better or the worse of the two. She wasn't a big Quidditch fan, but she knew that the game could be extremely exhilarating…and clearly it was.
Heidi took a small step away from her sister as Evie continued to cheer. The longer that she watched her, the more her stomach dropped. She knew what was supposed to happen tonight. Every night, before she had gone to bed, her parents had always reminded her that Evie would one day resent them for doing what they had done. She would never want to be around them ever again; they weren't even her real family. She would want to go back to her real family...Evie was going to go to bed and then wake up the next morning and know that she had been lied to for the past thirteen years. Heidi knew that guilt would eat her and consume her that night while Evie slept, but there was nothing that she could do. In the end, this was to keep Evie safe and that was the only thing that mattered.
She wrapped her arms around Evie again, making the young girl furrow her brow together.
"Why do you keep hugging me?" She asked with a little chuckle. Heidi shrugged her shoulders as an unseen tear slowly slid down her cheek.
"I don't know…I just want to hug you."
