And this is when the feeling sinks in,
I don't wanna miss you like this,
~Taylor Swift, Come back... Be here
Avana and Filips summer consisted of them in the garden most of the time. His friends, who were obsessed with quidditch, started to teach Avana how to ride her broom and play the game. On one of the last days of summer, Avana and filip lay on the grass in the garden and stared up at the sky.
"Filip?" Avana asked. Avana looked over at her friend examining him. He hadn't shaved for a few days so he had a small beard forming. Filip didn't look over at her, or tell her to go on with what she had to ask, so she went on anyways, and looked back up to the sky. "What will happen? I mean, you won't be at Hogwarts with me. I'll be alone, well I'll have Luna still but she can't save me from Draco! And the order is destroyed remember? What will I do?"
"Ava calm down, it will be fine!" he said. Filip also pointed at the sky, to a cloud that was shaped like a lion. "See that? It is the symbol for courage. You will do well." He said.
"I'm not a lion though Filip. I am Ravenclaw, the raven symbolizes darkness, death. It can't be good." Avana said calmer than she thought she would. Filip sighed and sat up, having enough with the conversation that had taken a dark turn.
Avana POV
"Let's go inside for lunch. Then we can go out for a little shopping." He said. Nodding we walked into the house to have crackers and cheese, something small since we both weren't really hungry.
"I really don't like the idea of you going back to Hogwarts..." his mom said as she walked into the kitchen. Over the course of my time here, she had become like a mother to me. She was extremely kind and made sure that I was at home. "It doesn't feel good, and with that man dying last year, he-who-must-not-be-named back and everything, I don't want you to go. I am not your legal guardian though, so you have to." She sighed and sat down in one of the chairs.
"Mum we are going into down after is that alright?" Filip asked. His mother nodded and said something to him in polish, which I had learnt over the summer that meant be careful. Filip nodded and we finished off our snack and cleaned up.
Slipping on my pink shoes (I had found that muggle shoes were actually very comfortable) and my summer sweater we walked out of the house and down the road.
Even though his family were pure-blood wizards, Filip lived in a muggle area of Poland. They didn't really notice the difference, but I think it was because of the protection they had made so they wouldn't be found.
As we walked into town I was caught looking at different things in shop windows. Pointing into an art shop we walked in. I looked around and saw different things but one thing caught my attention that the others didn't. It was a painting set of water colours; it was to make beautiful paintings. I walked over to it and stared up at it since it was on a shelf that was taller than I was.
All of the sudden a hand came up from behind me and pulled it off the shelf. I couldn't see anything up there anymore so I turned around and saw Filip holding it.
"Avana, this is a going to Hogwarts present." He said and turned around to buy it. Against my protests he still got it and we walked out of the shop. After buying a few things he needed we went back to his house to get me ready for the next day. The day I went back to Hogwarts.
\O-O/
The next day was the day I left to Hogwarts. As I got ready floo into Dumbledores office I looked at Filip and his mother. They were basically my family and I had to leave them.
"You will do well Ava." Filip said. I smiled slightly, trying not to cry from the fact I was leaving my best friend.
"I have faith in you Avana. Stay safe Córka." She said. I nodded and hugged them both.
"Thank-you, so very much." I said to his mother. She nodded and hugged me one more time. It was so familiar and friendly and... motherly. I didn't want to leave it, but I had to. After I let her go, I turned to Filip. "Filip... You are my best friend, more than a friend, you are my basically my brother. I will miss you at Hogwarts. I hope you stay safe." I said. He nodded.
"You are basically my sister too. I will miss you Ava." He said and hugged me in his hug. I hugged him back, after a few minutes we let go, and with one last good-bye session, I went through the fire place. The only thing was though, that that was the last goodbye.
Guess who is back! Me! I got this idea randomly and I was like "Must write down even though I am suppose to be studying for a test tomorrow" so yea. I hope I do well on this test I am not studying for at the moment! So how was your guys' summer? My nails are painted Slytherin! (Pottermore put me in Slytherin, it was meant to be )
So anyways, I hope you guys enjoy this and hopefully I update soon!
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry potter or anyone in it. T.E.D.S owns Filip, I own Avana. And I own the picture for this if it is a painting because I painted it. It was on my bedroom wall for a while!
