Pink Toad Goes Down

So i saw that it’s been a while and i still haven’t Updated the 1st Chapter of My FanFic:D so here it goes my Chapter 1

***

It was the middle of October, the season finally began changing.

Outside, the rain was pouring, and inside a big brick, Victorian house a little girl was sitting by the window, on the window sit.

Her worn out copy of ‘Jane Eyre’ was lying open in her lap.

Her gaze was to the field outside; her eyes were glued to the dark grey clouds.

She sighed, took the book from her lap and got up from her previous position.

She ran to the library room where her mother sat curling up with a book, a blanket and a glass of fine red wine.

Upon the voice of footsteps, Genevieve looked up from her book to see her youngest daughter standing in front of her with a sad look on her face. She put her book aside and the glass on the coffee table near the couch “ce qui est erroné?, why the sad face?” she asked pulling Arianna to her lap, her back facing her stomach her arms wrapped tightly around her waist.

“It’s raining outside, and Hermione can’t come over because of it.” Arianna mumbled sadly.

“Oh. Can’t she floo over?” Arianna rolled her eyes “her parents are muggles.” She reminded her mother. “oh, that’s right” she said “I keep forgetting that. We spend so much time together and are so close that it just makes me forget.” she apologized.

Genevieve knew how important Hermione is to her daughter; the two of them became quite inseparable over the years. She would joke and say that Hermione is her adopted daughter because of them being always together.  But it was predictable since she and Rose are so close, they keep having dinners at each other houses and go on camping trips with the girls.

“um…” she said after a few minutes of silence and only hearing the fire eating the wood.

“How about I’ll go make us some of our favorite mocoloco coco while you’ll go find your sister and tell her to come down then you could go phone Hermione and tell her to get ready and that we will floo over in a bit?” Genevieve proposed.

Arianna looked up at her mother grinning widely “Thank you! merci mama!”  she thanked her mother and kissed her cheek and hugged her tightly.

“Okay, let me up or there wont be mocoloco coco.” Her mother said in a sing-song voice.

Arianna immediately jumped from her mother and ran to her room to call Hermione. She skipped up the glass made stairs and remembering her mother’s words she went first to her older sister’s room.

“Lola! Mom said Her- Lola?” the room was empty, and there was no sign of Lola. ‘where could she possibly be?’ was her thought.

She was about to turn and run to her mother, but remembered the hidden room.

No body, expect Lola, Hermione and herself knew about it.

She entered their common room, it looked like their living room only the walls were painted in red and brown, there was a white grand piano, and 4 huge oak tree bookshelves filled with different variety of books. There were art books, History books, Mythological books and many more.

On the floor lied a 3 m’ long Persian carpet.

There were two long couches with floral pattern. In the middle of both couches was a little table made of seashells that both sisters made last summer; the couches were infront of the 18^th century Victorian fireplace.

Opposite the fire place there was a wall made of mirrors and on the ceiling was a crystal made chandelier with enough candles to produce a large amount of light. Of course they were bewitched so they would turn on and off as requested.

Above the fire place, hung a picture Arianna painted when she was 8 years old in her art class.

She walked over the second bookshelf and pulled out the copy of “The Secret Garden” and the bookshelf opened and Arianna walked in.

She looked around “Lola!” she yelled her older sister’s name.

“in here!” she heard her replay. She breathed in relief as she skipped the stone stairs down to where her sister was at.

When she saw what her sister was doing she frowned. Lola was at the potions table making various potions.

“I’ve been looking for you. Mom said to tell you to join us downstairs and that she’s going to make us some mocoloco coco and then we’ll floo over to Hermione’s house and she’ll stay over with us!” she exclaimed happily.

Lola laughed. “I swear you two are twins, you’re always together.” Arianna ignored her comment “what are you doing here? Mom took you home for a week because of aunt Josephine’s wedding, you’re supposed to relax!” she said accusingly, her arms on her hips.

“Sorry sis, I can’t do such thing. I have the potions O.W.L.S right after auntie’s wedding and I need to be prepared. I know you don’t understand now but you will when you’ll be in your sixth year at Hogwarts.” She explained.

Arianna saddened at the thought “what if I won’t get my letter? I think I’m a squib. Would you hate me if I was a squib?” Lola smiled and bent to look her sister in the eyes, green met gray.

“never. Although you don’t need to worry, there is no way you are a squib honey, did you forget how you levitated that book and made it fall on Justin’s head, or how you made the dead plant bloom back to life? You will get your letter on your eleventh birthday.” Arianna smiled “thanks sis, you made me feel better.” “what are sisters for?” “do you think Hermione will get a letter too? She levitated that book with me.” “You’re right; Hermione does seem to have magical powers within her. I’ll say you both will get the letters, being the inseparable girls you are.” Lola said smiling a smile that reached her grey eyes, her beautiful red hair falling in ringlets on her back.

Arianna immediately smiled back. And then realization hit her “Hermione! I have to go and call her.” She said splinting towards the hidden door “be careful or you will break something!” Lola yelled. There was a small thud followed by a little sound of ow..

“Every time, every bloody time.” She said shaking her head disapprovingly although a smile was plastered on her face.

“DON’T CUS!” Anna shouted from the stairs. Earning “I’m sixteen I can do what I want to.” as a response. “Not fair.”

Both girls went back to their common room; separating there each went to her room.

Anna went to her room to call Hermione, and Lola went to the living room as her mother requested.

After dialing Hermione’s House phone number, she kept mumbling “pick up.” until a female voice answered the phone. “Hello?” “Hello mrs. Granger, it’s me Arianna.” “oh Anna Honey, how are you are you?” “I’m fine Mrs. Granger, thank you for asking, is Hermione home?” “call me Rose dear, I’ve known you since you were a little baby, you don’t need to be so formal. And yes she’s here I’ll call her. Say hi to your mom for me, will you?” “sure thing Rose.” The other side was quiet until Hermione Finally answered.

“Mione, finally, I began loosing my patience here.” I could practically hear her roll her eyes.

“uh uh uh, what have I told you about rolling you’re eyes?” she teased her. “yeah, yeah. You’re not better.” “true, true.”

“Well..” Arianna then said “mom said we’ll floo over and visit you, then you will return with us to our home.”

“Great! I’ll tell mom. See you later princess.” “Don’t call me-hello? Mione!”

Arianna hated being called a princess. Hermione knew that and loved teasing her about it.

Even though Arianna wasn’t a red head, she inherited her mother’s temper, and other voluble things, but you will find out about them only later on.

Arianna went down stairs pouting, her arms folded on her chest. 

When Genevieve and Lola saw her they burst laughing. “it’s not funny!” she whined.

“You.. you should of seen your face.” Lola said, barely managing through the laughter.

“Hermione teased you again, didn’t she?” her mother stated knowingly.

Anna just huffed and sat on the couch, bringing her legs to her chest, her chin resting on her knees as she looked at the television.

“you know  she does it only to tease you, right?” Lola asked. Anna sighed and released her position, her feet on the floor.

She took a pillow- the pillow her father made for her when she was born. To her this, and the locket from her father are the most precious things in the world.- and embraced it to her chest, sniffing the old scent of her father that was stuck on it.
