"Violet Marylin Stevens! Come back!" Violet's mom shouted.

"NO!" Violet yelled back.

Finally, after what seemed to be forever, Violet's mom found her daughter. "You know that it isn't a problem if you have a crush on Gryfynn."

"GROSS! Why would I have a crush on anybody?!" Violet shouted.

"I don't know but the way you've been acting lately..."

"MUM! I do NOThave a crush on ANYBODY!"

"Oh, Violet..." her mom said, looking troubled.

"Mum... I'm sorry I yelled, but you know that I don't have a crush on anybody. And if I did, it certainly wouldn't be on Gryfynn!" Violet stopped for a moment, then continued on, "I'm going back, but I'm going on my own. I need to talk to those two nutcases." She rolled her eyes.

"Alright, V." Then Violet walked off, leaving her mom teary-eyed as she left to talk to the boys.


"Violet! You're back!" Jack exclaimed, then looked awkward for a moment. "Sorry if I, um, frustrated you or something." Violet smiled, with tears in her eyes. "You know how people say that they'll never have the friends they had at the age of twelve?" Violet asked.

"Yeah." Gryfynn and Jack said.

"Well, for me that goes double."* Violet said with a grin.
