Who: Pearl and Jacob
What: Pearl wants comfort
Where: Jacob's room
When: Wednesday evening.
It was stupid really. It had been four a half days since Will went missing and she knew that people were trying to find him, that she'd done almost everything she could possibly think of doing herself to help but still tonight she lay there in bed, unable to get to sleep. She hadn't been sleeping well really since Ophie mentioned seeing Will with his parents. Eventually somewhere in the middle of the night she'd drift off for a couple of hours but the worry and the lack of sleep was showing. She looked tired, her spells were going wrong, even some of the simpler ones that she normally barely had to think about, she wasn't paying attention in classes. She didn't realise quite how deeply she cared for her friend until this happened, and now she was terrified he wouldn't be coming back.
There really was no point in staring at the ceiling of her room for hours again tonight so, around midnight, she slipped out of her room and crept through the corridors until she found herself at her twin's door, not having really been sure where she was headed until she got there. A simple lock opening spell (which thankfully didn't blow up in her face) and she padded into Jacob's room in her pyjamas and socks, climbing into his bed without a single word.
