This is a place where you can role play as your regular characters but ten years older. Since this will obviously mean your adults, and you've graduated Hogwarts, please bear that in mind and post as if you're visiting Hogwarts. This RP is open for all of the grounds of Hogwarts and the Castle if you prefer to do so.

'Aw the old school reunion thing'Paul thought to himself'I wonder who else is going to show'

Cecilia stumbled awkwardly through the door, her usual entrance. Not much has changed. Her light brown hair that once was just past her shoulders was easily to the middle of her back and a deep chocolate brown. Her brown eyes sparkled with the same sense of curiosity and innocence. She wore a knee length white dress, teal stitching all throughout it and a teal ribbon around the waist. As always, her simple black vans graced her feet and a great novel rested in her right hand. She quickly looked around the room and took a seat at a nearby table, already enthralled in her book.

Lizz walked on the grounds, she was now 53 and she looked a bit older but thanks to the grandkids she was still in great shape.

It was strange to say that 10 years had past, it seemed only yesterday that the twins had been born, let alone achieveing good results at Hogwarts. It had been a surprise to get the monthly letters, though they were mainly from Sky. Of course there was the sibiling rivalry, with Sky in Ravenclaw and Lukas in Gryffindor. But Fleur was more than pleased that they had received aceptance.

She had been looking for Lee in the slowly filling feasting hall,but having circled the room twice, he was no where to be seen. Fleur hadn't really aged in the last 10 years, her skin still looked as bright and alive as it had in th space of time. Her hair had been cut a little shorter, but not enough to make a difference. She found herself wondering through younger parents and old school friends. Jolting to the side, she caught a glimpse of Lizz over the other side of the room and made her way over.

Lizz looked up and smiled at fleur, walking over to her as well, "just reminiscing on the past...can't believe there in school" she said shaking her head with a sigh. "o lee said he'll be here about 6, so about thirty minutes"
OOC
i got to get off soon but i will be back later

OOC-Ok.

BIC: Fleur greet the friendly smile, luckily she had seen a lot more of Lizz in the last couple of years. Lizz had kind of became Fleur's child support while the children weren't in school, it gave her a friend to talk to, not just a babysitter. Weaving through a couple of running boys, she stood by Lizz's side. "I know what you mean, I feel so old. It'll be William soon."She uttered, her hand coming up to brush hair from the side of her face. It stayed there briefly in her amazement, at how old all her children were. " I felt like a lonely goose before I spotted you, the twins went off with some of there friends, William followed."

Unsure of who was there, Cecilia retreated to her usual habit of curling up in a corner with one of her tattered beloved book. Determined to find a good corning, she took off -- nervously twirling her hair all the while.

"That you Celia?"Paul called over "Well it must be who else would slump off to a corner to read a silly book"

Cecilia looked up from her page, surprised to hear a familiar voice so soon in the day.

"Paul!" She smiled, standing up and quickly brushing off her dress.

"How've you been?"

"Cant complain working at the ministry leading an adventurous life how about yourself?

She lifted her book to about face level.

"Reading."

She laughed quietly at herself.

"But I'm happy you're life has been exciting".

She quickly flashed him a smile.

"Reading huh?Unfortunate id say never liked reading much myself with that in mind ill never know how i got a job at the ministry"He said laughing

I'm sure it had something to do with that wicked noggin of yours. And perhaps your charm. You can work wonders on a room, and you know that.

"Your full of it if you think iv got a wicked noggin"Paul said laughing

"Yup. Right hurrrr,"

She playfully knocks on his head.

"Maybe you just haven't noticed because you're too busy ministry- ing.

"Well that could be it but i doubt it"Paul said laughing still harder"So all you do is read?"He asked

Cecilia laughs before answering.

"uhhh yeah. I read and....listen to music. I went to a muggle college for a while, that was different."

"What did you go to muggle college for?"Paul asked

"Well, my dad's a muggle - as you know - and he's a lawyer, so I thought I'd try my hand at that. WAY too boring."

"What you the queen of reading couldnt get through the law books?"

Cecilia laughs;

"Me, the queen of reading, couldn't get through the muggle-ness of it all. There is no magic EVER. And I mean, ever ever. do you know how horrible that is?"

Lizz groaned 'nooooooo not my little William!" she said but smiled with a sigh, "he just better make sure to keep it in line like his siblings, i'll definatly keep extra attention on them now that all three are here' she said laughing a little. She watched the Black Lake thinking to herself about memories on the past, "seemed like just yesterday i got the letter that you were having the baby, turned out to be sky AND lukas" she said shaking her head, "o me where does time go and how do you make it stop?"

"No i cant say i do but just because they say you cant use magic doesnt mean you really cant its more of a....suggestion"

"Well, I'm not much of a rule breaker...or suggestion bender. Hold on, haven't you been working for the Ministry? That's really not the advice you should be giving me." Cecelia laughs.

[COLOR=blue]"Hey just because i give the advice doesnt mean i follow it"Paul said smiling

"And just because you say you don't follow it, it doesn't make that true" Cecilia said with a wink.

Fleur laughed at Lizz's reaction. She completely understood how Lizz was feeling, William still felt like her little baby, she didn't want him too, to go into the big wide world of Hogwarts."I think he'll be more embarrased that his grandma is one of his teachers."She mused, remembering when Lukas come home for the christmas term exclaiming how he had gotten told off by Lizz."I think I was the most surprised.I was sure that Lee was going to faint in the delivery room. "Talking about it makes me feel even more old.Though I am probably one of the youngest parents here." Fleur uttered, putting her hands in her pockets.

Lizz laughed, "stuff like that never really got to him, i think he was more worried about you and the baby being ok than anything else" she said smiling remembering watching the color come back to his cheeks as he showed off the new well babies. She nodded "yeah Lukas hated it at first, dont quite know about Sky but Lukas would avoid me and it finally became a game between us, how long till I caught him" she said softly and sighed, "Dont worry about age, i use to and trust me its seriously just a number"

"Are you calling me a lier?"Paul asked her

It was interesting to see how much had changed in her epic life, especially in the past ten years. Her marriage to Lee, the birth of her children, the disappearance of her uncle, Gabrielle, not only didn't she remember what had happened in her family life, but what with her friends. " I'm sure anyone would freak if they didn't know they were having twins. I wonder why it didn't show up on the ultrasound." Fleur tilted her head in thought, it was just a question she had always found a little strange. "The boys are too much like Lee, always getting into trouble.I don't think Sky could ever be mischievous."She uttered,turning her body slight, so as not to stand in the same position for too long.

"They are EXACTLY like him" she said laughing "maybe not as off the wall though, and if they try hard enough i am sure Sky can be dragged into there mayhem and confusion" Lizz said it was interesting how much all the grand children resembled Fleur and Lee in many ways. "I have no clue why that didn't show up, maybe they just didn't look for two, maybe they saw one and stopped or something" she said shaking her head. "Lee said you were the first one to realize it was twins, i just can't imagine after birthing one suddenly feeling and having another unprepared" she said shaking her head, she didn't see how Fleur had done it.

Fleur laughed, she had been told what Lee had been like as a child and she had witnessed herself what he had been like as a teenager, and of course what he was like now. Lukas was definitely like him in nearly everyway, and Sky did have his qualities. "Lukas does have a way of encouraging her. " Even if Sky still felt like her little girl, she would be a handfull at times. She know exactly what Lizz meant by bringing her into the mayhem. "Your probably right Lizz, it the fact that I have two healthy children that counts. Even if they are all grown up now."Fleur smiled, lifting her hand to check her watch. "I guess I'm just amazing." She joked. She really didn't know how she managed it either.

"three girl, don't forget William" Lizz smiled yawning a bit, "I've slowed down as age has caught me, or maybe its the twins that have run me out of my active stage who knows," she said laughing lightly. "I caught sky passing notes to some friends the other day, seems as if she has a boy on her mind".

Fleur smile, leaning herself a little more against the wall beind them. All this standing was making her back hurt, though her body was still pretty fit. It must be the training she had been putting in after the twins started school. " Definitely the twins. They ware we out just thinking about them. " Her eyes stared straight into Lizz's at the word boy. That couldn't be good. " Really? I thought she'd been acting a little strange, Lee told be I was just imagining it, but I guess its my mother sense, you know?" Fleur uttered, her teeth catching on her bottom lip and she thought about the situation. It had to happen sometime and at least if it happened early it might not be so bad. It was the rejection she was must worried about, though Sky wasn't exactly shy. "What time did you say Lee was getting here?"She asked.

"Should be here soon" she said looking at her watch, "Lee wont admit she's growing up just yet," Lizz said laughing a little, she knew all parents were like that, they just didn't want there babys to be grown up and moving on into the world. "Seems to be one of the Weasley familys so I wouldn't worry about being hurt, there a pretty good bunch, have some issues with pranks from Sacre"

Fleur gave a concerned sigh at Lizz's answer.She guessed that Lee would get here, when he gets here. It was nice just talking to Lizz, she had missed that since Lizz had started teaching at Hogwarts. Plus they had gone through so much, and some she didn't know about her children, which she felt a little guilty about. A mother should know her own children, right? " No father whats to think of his daughter as grown up. " She said, smiling. She couldn't really give evidence for the quote, considering her relationship with her father. Fleur bit her lip, she wasn't really sure how she felt about Sky having a boyfriend. She knew that the weasley family was good, and Lizz had relationships with some of them. " I'll get use to it I guess".

lizz nodded "Its ok though they have time to just be friends, now a few years from now yeah i would definatly wonder but for now just be hapy she's making friends. It'll get better" she said softly smiling. Lee walked onto the grounds hands in his pocket a worried look on his face.

Fleur was a slightly convinced, I mean though Sky wasn't exactly that old, she hadn't set a good example, marrying at 17. She guessed she couldn't keep her locked away for the whole of her life, Sky was getting friends that was really good. Being an individual and getting away from her brother. "Your right" Fleur managed to say before she was bombared with Lukas.

He told with his short wavely blonde hair in front of him, William trailing behind. Lukas had a frown on his face, his arms out of his pocket for once. " Robot's making me look bad mum. Can't you make him say with you?"He uttered, before walking away towards his group of friends. William just stood in front of her not knowing what to do.

"uh William don't you have a test to be studying for?" she asked with a raised eyebrow at him her arms crossed over her chest. "Or did i imagine just giving your class a test for tomorrow" she said smirking at him and laughed. "Don't worry you'll be fine why don't you go see if anyone is at the pitch" Lizz said making a note to talk to Lucas.

Lee watchced his sons and walked over to Lucas and put an arm around him "he'll catch up' he said to his friends.
