Backstory!
Who: Ter & Mia
What: Terence comes to pick up Mia from King's Cross after she gets back from the Battle of Hogwarts. They catch up, get tipsy, and touch each other too much.
Where: King's Cross, the Higgs Estate, and then Casa de Terence
When: June, 1998
Warnings: SERIOUS SIBLING UST
Mia's mood wasn't exactly the highest on her way home from Hogwarts. The funeral for Albus Dumbledore had just taken place, which crushed her heart to begin with. And then on a more personal level, she was still feeling betrayed and hurt by her first real real relationship crumbling into tiny pieces, and rather publicly, at that. She had made it a point not to tell Terence about that for as long as she could, but eventually, he got it out of her. Even through writing, she could rarely lie to him or keep things from him, not that she wanted to. But she also knew he'd hover and worry, and she didn't want him focusing on her when he needed to be focusing on Quidditch. He had a bloody career to build, and the last thing he needed on his mind was his silly baby sister's heart getting broken by a stupid boy.
She'd live. It's not like she had been stabbed or something. It just sort of felt like it sometimes. And so after saying goodbye to her friends as the train pulled into the station, Amelia took a deep breath as she gathered her things. She hadn't seen her brother since Christmas, which was already too long, but she wasn't sure she could find the energy for her usual greeting.
But as she stepped off the train, that thought fled from her mind as she almost started crying just at the sight of him. He always made her feel better without even a word. Just the sight of him...
Taking off at a full run towards him, Mia jumped at him wrapping her arms around his shoulders and her legs around his waist, hugging him as tight as her tiny frame would allow. Merlin, she would not bloody cry. She would not cry! But the tears streaming down her face told an entirely different story.
