who is in control?

her mother told her she could grow up to be anything she wanted be, so she grew up to become the strongest of the strong, the strangest of the strange, the wildest of the wild, the wolf leading wolves.

VICTORIA.

                    victoria cocked her hip and cast a wide look around, considering, as if for the first time, alice fortescue’s immediate surrounding area. and then without any sort of invitation, she sat herself down right next to the other girl, bag set on her other side, so she was slouched low and close to the ground. she closed her eyes easily, and let them stay shut, before she opened her mouth to speak. “  guess I was, and I guess you were. now that I’m not any longer, think you’ll possibly be able to continue on your merry way with that work without needing to point out any more obvious? “  she opened one eye in a lazy, squinty wink, to look at alice.  “ if I’m out here with you and you’re working, we can both be outside and left to our own devices. we don’t even need to talk to each other. “

ALICE.

                an  almost  silent,  disgruntled  moan  sounded  from  the  back  of  alice’s  throat  as  the  girl  took  a  seat  right  next  to  her,  her  furrowed  brow  unwittingly  tossing  a  displeased  glance  her  way  before  returning  to  the  half-finished  essay.  it  felt  like  her  thinking  space  had  been  invaded,  as  if  someone  had  come  and  sat  right  in  the  place  in  her  mind  that  was  just  about  to  grasp  onto  the  next  sentence.  the  slytherin  could  do  nothing  but  groan  again,  rubbing  her  tired  eyes  with  her  free  hand  before  turning  back  to  the  other  girl.    ❛   well  could  you  maybe  not  talk  to  me  over  there,   ❜    she  sighed,  gesturing  vaguely  to  the  other  side  of  the  table.    ❛   you’re  sitting  far  too  close  to  me.   ❜

[fcrtscuealice]

AYA.

                              she  smiled  softly,  but  not  quite  to  the  eyes,  as  she  studied  each  little  movement.  she  was  a  tad  annoyed,  left  in  silence  despite  her  desire  to  talk.  but  she  knew  very  well  that  she  needed  to  remain  calm  at  times;  not  everyone  wanted  what   she  wanted  when  she  wanted  it.  that  being  said,  she  wasn’t  just  going  to  sit  around      &    do  nothing.      ❛   hmph.   ❜   with  a  furrowed  brow,  she  placed  her  palms  on  the  table  before  standing  up.    ❛   guess  i’ll  leave  ya  to  it  then.   ❜    if  alice  needed  to  study,  then  far  be  it  for  aya  to  stop  her.

ALICE.

                             at  the  muffled  grunt  of  disapproval  from  her  best  friend,  alice  finally  looked  up,  eyes  following  the  brunette  as  she  stood  over  the  mess  of  a  table.  upon  instinct,  alice  reached  out,  palm  settling  on  the  top  of  aya’s  hand  to  stop  her  before  she  could  bolt.    ❛   wait  ---   ❜    pulling  back,  she  sighed,  dropping  her  quill  on  the  stack  of  parchment  and  leaning  back  on  the  stiff  wooden  bench.    ❛   i’m  sorry,  no,  stay  ---  PLEASE.  i’m  just  ---  stressed.  you  know  how  i  get  sometimes.  i  feel  like  mcgonagall’s  been  on  my  back,  and  i  just  really  want  to  impress  her  this  time.   ❜

MARLENE.

“DON’T remind me.” she responded with a groan. marlene was in deep denial regarding the steadily building pile of homework she was supposed to be concentrating on. it was far easier to pretend she was responsibility free. “c’mon, it’s a nice day, fortescue. you can’t waste that.”

ALICE.

   alice  continued  to  ignore  the  girls  complaints,  running  a  hand  through  her  loose  hair  and  releasing  a  soft  sigh  as  she  surveyed  the  mess  of  her  work.    ❛   i  know  it’s  a  nice  day  ---  that’s  why  i’m  working  outside,   ❜    she  replied,  not  even  entirely  sure  if  she  was  joking  at  this  point.

[fcrtscuealice]

AYA.

                           ❛     so  you  should  be  thanking  me.     ❜    aya  looked  at  her  friend,  gaze  steady  as  her  eyes  wandered  around  the  different  types  of  supplies  on  the  table.    ❛       &     shut  the  hell  up,  you  can  still  see  your  work.     ❜    taking her  seat  opposite  the  girl,  she  leaned  forward,  resting  her  elbows  on  the  table.  there  was  no  doubt  in  her  mind  that  alice  was  struggling.  the  poor  girl  was  hammering  drinks  like  it  was  the  end  of  the  world.  definitely  admirable,  but  the  young  acrobat  was  relieved  that  she  wasn’t  the  one  suffering  the  consequences.      ❛     what     ?     are  you  a  masochist  now  or  .  .  .       ?      ❜    she  waited  for  an  answer,  unsure  as  to  why  anyone  in  their  right  mind  would  attempt  to  do  homework  while  hungover.

ALICE.

                    keeping  her  eyes  focused  on  her  work,  alice  chewed  on  her  thumb  as  aya  did  laps  around  the  table  that  she  had  invaded.  the  quips  from  the  gryffindor  earned  a  half  smile  from  the  snake,  but  she  was  FAR  too  tired  to  fire  back,  settling  instead  for  a  light  chuckle  as  she  was  finally  joined  at  the  table.    ❛   can’t  say  i  know  what  you  mean,   ❜    she  mumbled  in  response,  hand  now  out  of  her  mouth  and  shuffling  through  the  papers  scattered  across  the  desk.

FRANK.

The last few minutes were very changing for him. The last few weeks had been more than he’d like to think about, but he couldn’t help it. Everything was changing-his environment, his friends, his family, the way he thought of himself. “I’m not that kind.” He shifted in his position again when she moved onto the bed. Frank usually usually did what came naturally to him. He went with his first plan whether is was a good idea or not. But he was paused between this moment and the next. All of a sudden, a girl who he barely knew, who he often found unreasonably unreasonable, who seemed to be showing up in his life more and more, who he was sure he caught looking his way in class was admitting all of these different feelings to him. He was the kind of kid who got by in school, did well enough to succeed without having to worry about what would happen next. But Frank Longbottom always lacked in social cues. He was kind in result of having to rely on others’ kindness to help him find his way. But now there was a girl on the edge of his hospital bed. Every moment that Alice stayed, revealed a different side of her. He didn’t care that she was all of a sudden soft and vulnerable. If he was thinking properly he would care that she was so willing to express herself to him, after so short a while of them talking in this manner. “You’re probably a lot nicer than you think.” He said, matching her quiet tone as it seemed the space between them was shrinking. Being too loud could disrupt how everything else around them seemed to be shutting down, fading out. Being too loud could pull them back into reality. So instead, as with the usual Frank Longbottom way, he went with his first plan. He didn’t think it through, or truly register what he was doing. So instead of trying to think through his actions, plan ahead, he just let his lips fall lightly onto hers for the briefest moment before inching away slightly, now unsure whether to look her in the eyes or kiss her again.

ALICE.

                   and  for  perhaps  the  first  time  in  her  life,  alice  fortesuce  wasn’t  the  one  to  make  the  first  move.  in  that  brief  moment  where  he  closed  the  gap  between  them,  pressed  his  lips  ever  so  gently  against  hers,  she  felt  cared  for  ---  like  this  didn’t  have  to  be  fast,  or  forceful,  or  messy.  it  could  just  be  the  two  of  them,  softly  staring  at  each  others  puffed  lips,  enjoying  the  serenity  of  the  moment  they  were  sharing.  alice  was  so  used  to  something  that  was  quick-paced,  something  that  was  hot  and  sweaty  and  not  at  all  as  sweet  as  this  moment  right  here,  and  yet  it  was  like  she  had  found  home.  something  so  calm,  so  tender  that  she  wanted  every  moment  from  now  on  to  be  as  sweet  as  this.  her  lips  quirked  in  the  softest  of  smiles,  hazel  eyes  fluttering  down  to  look  at  the  lips  that  had  just  so  quietly  touched  hers  ---  she  wanted  to  do  it  again.  and  again  and  again  and  again.  just  keep  reliving  this  moment,  her  and  him  and  him  and  her  in  such  peaceful  harmony  unlike  anything  she  had  ever  experience  before.  tongue  poking  out  to  dart  across  soft  flesh,  her  gaze  rose  to  settle  on  his  eyes,  smile  growing  stronger  as  she  reached  up  and  cupped  his  cheek  gently  in  her  palm.    ❛   i’d  be  nicer  for  you,   ❜    she  whispered,  closing  the  gap  between  their  lips  again  for  a  kiss  a  lot  deeper  than  before,  still  soft  and  yet  perhaps  more  desperate  as  she  leaned  into  him,  one  hand  looping  behind  his  neck  and  the  other  still  caressing  his  cheek.

[fcrtscuealice]

MARLENE.

“I DON’T like it.” marlene said, frowning down at the mess of papers scattered around the other. despite the killer headache that had been present since the morning, marlene felt restless. she still had energy to work off. as she settled in beside her, marlene tossed her head back, allowing herself to relish in the feeling of the sun on her face. “there are about a thousand more interesting things you could be doing.”

ALICE.

 alice  tried  her  best  to  block  out  the  noise  of  marlene’s  whining,  chewing  anxiously  on  her  thumbnail  and  focusing  harder  than  ever  on  her  work.  she  could  feel  when  the  gryffindor  sat  down  next  to  her  and  was  a  second  away  from  protesting  before  the  girl  continued  complaining.    ❛   i  would  much  rather  focus  on  this  essay,  please,  mckinnon,   ❜    the  snake  snipped,  not  looking  up  from  her  work  and  instead  shuffling  through  the  textbook  to  try  and  find  the  appropriate  phrase  she  was  looking  for.    ❛   and  frankly,  so  should  you.   ❜

                   alice fortescue was, for once in her life, doing her homework. her head might’ve been throbbing and her eyes might’ve been drooping, but she would be damned if she let her grades drop all because of a stupid hangover. the most she could do to try and relieve the pain was scratch quill to parchment in the outside courtyard, the harsh rays of the sun keeping her awake as she flipped from the essay to the textbook and back again. she’d been hard at work for nearly half an hour before someone decided to disrupt her, hovering just above her frame and consequently blocking her light. without looking up, she sighed.   ❛  you’re in my light,  ❜   she mumbled, still trying desperately to get through this paragraph.   ❛  i’m trying to work.  ❜
