Batty Boogey
I was sitting in the kitchen looking at the Daily Prophet when I heard a huge crash come from the playroom where Hugo and Lily were playing. I sighed and went to see what the two seven year olds could have possibly gotten themselves into. In the room Lily was sitting down on the floor with a smile on her face while bats - that were the color of brown sugar - were chasing Hugo around the room.
"I didn't mean too!" Lily cried, running to me, "It was an accident!"
"Get them off me!" Hugo yelled in horror. I vanished the bats and tried to conceal my smile. "Mum! Lily hexed me!"
"I did not!" she remarked, folding her arms across her chest. "I merely said if you didn't stop taking my doll you would be sorry!"
"Exactly!" Hugo called, "Then bats appeared when I took it again."
I burst out laughing at the two kids fighting like they were an old married couple. Lily and Hugo were best friends and even though they fought worse than cats and dogs; they always made up in the end.
"So what does that tell you, Hugo?" I asked with my brow raised, Lily was too young to be able to control her magic, and Hugo knew how heated his cousin got when she was angry.
"I shouldn't take Lily's doll?" he questioned with a frown. "But she shouldn't hex me!"
"Lily can't help it, Hugh," I explained and he nodded, even though he looked less then pleased. "Though she shouldn't threaten people, right, Lily?"
"Right, Aunt Hermione" she responded, turning to Hugo. "Sorry."
"Me too," he answered, giving her a hug. I smiled at the exchange, although there would be many more disagreements to come in the future, at that moment in time they were friends again.
