Characters: Cal and Stella Setting: the Entrance Hall on Wednesday before dinner. Rating: Unnecessary! Calvin in the only boy we can be POSITIVE that Stella won't snog. Summary: Sibling time Status: Incomplete
Stella had ordered Cal a very nice birthday gift. She'd though about it really, really hard. In fact, she'd thought about it so hard that she hadn't ordered it in time to get it here for his actual birthday. But, Cal was the nicest brother in the world, so she knew he wouldn't hold it against her. Plus, she'd plied him with a bunch of gross dark chocolate to keep him satisfied for the week it took the real gift to arrive.
When it appeared during breakfast on Wednesday, she had ordered her brother to spend his pre-dinner leisure time with her, and then used one of her free periods to wrap it up nicely. Hopefully he would like it. Hopefully he would like it so much that he would let her throw a fancy dress party for the whole school in his common room. She wasn't that worried. She always won arguments with her brother, after all, which was terribly agreeable of him.
"Calvin," she said, wrinkling her nose at him when he finally appeared. "You're late."
