The Following Friday Morning
Helen was often awake before the sun rose, but today she was even more excited than usual to awake. As she was packing for her trip to London, she nearly forgot to pack her wand. She rarely used it, and often relied on non-verbal and wandless magic.
After she finished packing, she noticed the time, 4:30am. She had meant to be leaving by 5:00. This extra time allowed her to check on Will before she left.
Helen started on her way to Will's room, moving swiftly through the long hallways in the sanctuary. She assumed he would still be asleep and did not bother knocking.
She walked over to Will's seemingly sleeping figure, taking his pulse and feeling his forehead to check for a fever.
"Magnus?" Will said quietly.
"Yes, William?" Helen inquired.
"Have fun without me. Take notes, please." Will said even quieter than before.
"I can assure you that this conference will be no fun lacking your presence. But I do promise to take detailed notes for you."
Magnus started on her way out of Will's room before he started talking again. "Magnus, why is your skirt so short?"
"It's no shorter than the rest of my skirts. You must be delirious." Magnus stated grinning by the fact that he actually noticed her abnormally short skirt in the darkness of his room.
"Bye Magnus, see you next week."
"Goodbye William."
