It's a Fine Line
Chapter 2.
As usual this curious heart Ravenclaw was curly up her favorite chair in her blessed sanctuary away from her brother when he's in one of his moods. She did love her blessed brother but not when he was in one of his moods. 'I swear he more of a girl then I am,' she thought sourly to herself turning the page in a the book she was trying to read in the Library. Maria loved books and they were one of the few things that she had that her brother couldn't take. He hated to read for pleasure. 'Sometimes I wonder what happen to the sweet boy I used to know.'
Maria was reading a love story but her heart wasn't really in to it. She had seen what love could do. It was just months after her and her twin's birth their beautiful veela mother felt trapped and jumped ship so to speak; leaving beyond a husband and two young children. So since then she and her brother had been brought up by her single father who swore of dating forever. It wasn't a bad up bringing for a modern wizarding girl but sometimes she which her father would get over her mother. She didn't care her mother suffered from the baby blues.
It goes to show that Maria had a good head on her shoulders even with the silly moments that she wished the boy she had a crush on would look at her but she didn't trust her heart to just anyone. Her brother and his friends seem to make their mission to make sure no one falls for Maria. It had worked for years but now Maria just didn't care.
Laughter pulled her from her book that she was reading. She saw her brother push someone down. Maria was getting annoy with her brother's bully ways. When the engagements were done between the two Maria was standing because it was her fellow Ravenclaw Liam. Her brother walks over toward Maria with a spring in his step. She sighs as she closes her book. "Was that need? I think the poor boy has been through enough," She said with angry tone. Thomas stopped mid-step and looked guiltily at Maria. "It wonders you're the older sibling not I when you act like such a child. Dad will be mad when he founds out."
Thomas looked at Maria with annoy; "You wouldn't dare," he said with a growl in his tone. She gave him a look as if to say 'I would.'
"I would, he would love to know how your grades are doing," She said. "It wonder how I get good grades when I hardly study and you barely study unless I drag you into study before your tests and bully you into doing your homework." He growled as he marched away to study.
She smirks as she gathers her books. Holding her notebook to her chest her olive skin tone shinned in the setting sun that stream through the big hallway windows. Her auburn-black hair curly into tight ringlets making her hair seems shorter; her sea blue eyes were stunning against the darkness of her skin and hair making them seems lighter.
She had her Ravenclaw scarf on but it bit chilly in the Library but the scarf she had a on a light blue shirt the falls below her knees and black pants. She was also wearing black boots. Maria wonder how she able to juggle Quidditch, her studies and keep up with her brother and his friends. She was the mother of the group and she has chased the boys down to make sure they did their work. Speaking boys she wants to check on the boy who brother had been teasing. She didn't go far when she walked into him.
