Us Against The World || Aidrik & Atalia
It was mid-evening in the Slytherin common room; around the same time that most of the students would be in the Great Hall dinning on the regular warm delicacies that were usually served on cold nights, but tonight, the Slytherin table would be missing two of its head students. Instead of joining her fellow dorm mates down in the Hall, Atalia was locked up in her room carelessly throwing articles of clothing into a forest green duffle bag, frantically pacing around the dorm trying to remember what she had forgotten to pack. “Boots…check. Robes…check. Wand…check. Merlin, I swear I’m missing something…” She secretly wished that either Lyra or Sienna were there to at least help her pack; organization was never her thing.

The wooden floorboards of the boy’s corridor squeaked and groaned as she neared the last door of the hallway. Without even knocking or bothering to let out a warning, Atalia pushed open the door into his dorm. “Comon Aid, we’re going to be late…”
