"I knew it!" the twins shouted together.
With a flick of my wrist they were surrounded by a soundproof bubble, looking pretty shocked.
"Boy you weren't kidding about the no spells no wand thing were you?" Oliver asked laughing.
"Nope. Couldn't help myself." I went over and knocked on the bubble, which was more like unbreakable glass actually. "Completely soundproof, nothing in nothing out. Harmless enough."
"Hayleigh let them out!" Hermione half yelled.
"Oh fine mom."
Another flick of my wrist and it disappeared. The twins were still in shock.
"Hello!" I yelled laughing.
"What the hell - " Fred started.
"Was that?" George finished.
"Soundproof telekenetic sheild, STS for short. I'm different, if you haven't noticed. I can do magic without spells, or even a wand. Not sure why though."
"Hayleigh..." Hermione started.
"No, I'm sick of hiding from my powers, I'm not afraid anymore. It was my decision in the first place and I'm overturning it."
"So are you guys together now?" Fred asked.
"I'm the most unique wizard in history, I've just revealed myself to you, and you want to talk about my love life?" I was laughing so hard now I had to sit down and motion for Oliver to answer for me.
"Yes we are, are you happy now?" he said.
"Completely." they answered and went up to bed.
"I swear those two are insane, but I think we already knew that." I said when I finally recovered from my fit of laughter.
"Agreed, I'm going up to bed, we'll talk later." Hermione said leaving as well.
"Yes mother, I'll be up in ten."
Oliver and I sat on the couch, his arm around me.
"I think this is only the beginning of the twin's torment." he said.
"I do believe you're right. I should go to bed, she'll want to lecture me and hear every detail at the same time."
We laughed as we stood and he hugged me, planting a kiss on my forehead before we said goodnight and went our seperate ways. I went up to my dorm and waited for Hermione's lecture.
"Spill."
"I told him about Scott."
"And he's not afraid?"
"If he is he's hiding it well.""
"Are you afraid?"
"No, but I'll still keep my guard up to make sure I don't slip. I can't slip up not this time. There's this love that is burning deep in my soul, constantly yearning to get out of control, wanting to fly higher and higher. I can't abide standing outside the fire."
"Life is not tried it is mearly survived if you're standing outside the fire."
"Exactly."
