"Brr, it's cold! I'm freezing!" complained Parvati Patil with a massive shiver going through her body. She, Dean Thomas and her sister, Padma Patil, were restoring an old manor Susan Bones so she could live in it; and they had only just arrived to start the restoration. It was one built by a Bones, and it so happened Susan wanted to live in it.

"I'll say," Dean nodded, shivering slightly also.

"We could use Incendio to light a fire," Padma suggested, thinking the idea was a great idea.

"Not a good idea: there are plenty of Muggles around, and we could get in serious trouble if they see us! We should try not to use magic when possible!" Parvati quickly argued.

"Oh, come on, Parvati! No one would see us use magic to light a tiny little fire, and you were complaining a minute ago about being cold! The house is in the middle of a property, anyway! Besides, how will we restore this house if we don't use magic!" Dean exclaimed.

"I don't want us to get into trouble! And that's different! We have to use it then!" Parvati cried.

"Oh, come on! it will be fine! I'd rather get sacked or sent to prison than die from freezing to death!" Padma cried, jumping to her feet and storming to the fireplace. She did not know why Parvati thought they should freeze when they were all freezing and there was no reason not to light a fire.

"Don't!" Parvati cried, jumping up to stop her sister.

"Parvati, what has gotten into you? Did a fire bite you last time one was lit or something?" Dean asked, finding Parvati's actions very odd.

"I had a dream, no, a nightmare. Padma used Incendio in the fireplace because we were all freezing, and the all place blew up!" Parvati said, stammering. She was feeling very afraid, she and looking it too.

"Parvati, that was just a dream. Using Incendio on the fire will not cause the place to blow up," Dean said, reassuring Parvati. She still was not convinced, so Dean began to take her attention away from the fireplace by taking her out of the room.

When Padma thought Parvati's attention was off the fireplace, she whipped her wand out faster than lightening and cried, "Incendio!"
"NOO!" Parvati cried, making a lunge for Padma's wand. However, she was way too slow, as the fire was lit before Parvati even touched her wand.

"See? It did not blow the house up, silly. Happy now to believe us?" Padma asked, shaking her head at her sister who had had a rush of blood to the head.

"Yes, happy," Parvati said sighing in relief.

"Silly chicken," Dean said, shaking his head at Parvati's silliness. Then despite themselves, Padma and Dean laughed and Parvati went bright red in the cheeks.
