Who: Alfie and Ellie Cattermole
When: This morning
Where: 6th year Hufflepuff boys dorm
What: Ellie's gotten tired of waiting and pounces on her twin for information and twin bonding time!
Rating: G - PG, really low.
Open/Closed: Closed

Ellie tried to be good and wait for Alfie to come talk to her, she really did. He'd said he wanted to talk to her after their first double Hogsmeade weekend, but them nothing had come of it. She'd waited though and her patience had grown thin. She'd already ambushed Audrey into talking when she'd gotten tired of waiting, but she always had more patience for Alfie, her twin. After all siblings could always wait for the others to come to them with problems and for twins she felt that was even more so. But Ellie had limited patience and finally it had snapped.

As it stood she probably would have already ambushed Alfie in her own special way, but she thought it would be easier to wait until the holiday break. What she hadn't expected was to be stuck at Hogwarts over the break, but her plan was easily adjusted. After all Hogwarts only kept the boys out of the girls dorm, not the other way around. So now a couple days into break she was ready to force the issue of them having a chat.

The only problem with her plan was that she didn't want to get up early. It was the holiday and she didn't have class. She wasn't required to be out of bed at a certain time and she liked just lounging. But she set an alarm for herself to be up earlier then she would be normally during the holidays and at least ran a brush through her hair. She didn't bother dressing though as basically everyone in Hufflepuff had seen her in her pajamas before and she wanted to be comfy for this chat. And if Alfie got to be in his pajamas for it then she got to be in hers.

It didn't take long for Ellie to get to the correct boys dorm and she eased the door open, grinning when she saw the hangings open and Alfie snuggled in his bed. Perfect. This was just how she wanted to find him and she grinned in anticipation. Quietly she made her way to the bed, careful to avoid anything that would make noise. She eased herself up onto it, feeling the bed dip just slightly as she made her way closer to Alfie. Her head tilted to the side as she surveyed him, noticing how peaceful he looked asleep, before she started bouncing on the bed.

"Wakey wakey, Alfiebug! Time to chat with your most favorite sister ever!"

Alfie had been having a good dream. A very good dream. Something like the daydream charm that he'd shared with Julien had been, but less real and more colourful, and he'd been just about to fight the black-masked pirate when the boat started shaking - tossing him - though everything else stayed put and that didn't make sense but ... was Blackbeard calling him Alfiebug? And telling him to...

He groaned, batting an arm as if he could swat her away, but missing entirely because his eyes were still closed. "El?" He mumbled sleepily, "Whatdoyouwant?"

Ellie giggled when Alfie swatted at her and didn't even come close to hitting her. It was amusing to watch him do things while his eyes were closed. He such a poor judge of where a person was when he was still half asleep. Though she guessed anyone was really. That still didn't make it any less amusing though.

"What do you think I want, Alfie?" Ellie questioned, grinning and bouncing a couple more times for good measure before settling down on her knees by his side, watching him. She was ready to start poking soon if he didn't open his eyes. "I want some twin time, silly! So open your eyes or else."

"Unng.." He made a sound that definitely didn't sound like he wanted twin time at the moment, but a few second later his eyes opened, slowly, and he swung an arm up over them. It was bright. Why was she waking him up?

"What time is't?"

A brief shot of guilt went through Ellie when Alfie continued to act overly tired, but it was easily pushed away. After all this was their holiday break and he'd have plenty of time to sleep in every other day. Well, except Christmas. Ellie would wake him up then too if he didn't get up early on his own. It just wouldn't do to oversleep them either.

"Early?" She grinned sheepishly at him. She didn't really pay attention to what time it was. It was just about half past seven when she'd gotten up and she didn't stay in her room long. She didn't get dressed or do her hair or get anything to eat. Nope, she'd just come here. "I'd assume it's about quarter to eight. Not too early."

"Before eight!" Alfie moaned the words, almost despairing, but he was awake now - damn her - and he blinked his eyes a few times and wiped the sleep from them, then looked at her a little closer.

"Are you okay?" Because why else would she be jumping on his bed while it was still seven in the morning unless something was wrong?

More giggles issued from her at how he was acting. It wasn't that much before eight and it wasn't like he couldn't nap later if he was seriously tired. She wanted him to wake up properly though because she didn't think he'd take well to her blurting out anything about him and Audrey and why she thought they weren't together when he wasn't all that awake.

"I'm fine. I just want to talk." She fidgeted where she sat and clasped her hands in front of her to stop her from going ahead and poking him some. "It's just... You said you wanted to talk that one day in your journal and then we never did. And I ambus-er talked with Audrey the other day."

Talk? She wanted to talk and she got him out of bed before it was even normal on a holiday day to do it? He rubbed his eyes again with the palms of his hands, groaning a little and then forcing himself to sit up, back against the headboard

"Huh? Talk about - " What she said sunk in, though, and he groaned a little and nodded. "Yeah. I got... busy." And even at the word 'busy' he blushed a little, thinking about what he'd been busy with lately. "You did? Why?"

Ellie blinked and regarded Alfie, a grin spreading. "Are you blushing, Alfie?" She couldn't remember how long it'd been since he'd last blushed and that made her wonder just what he'd been getting up to. "I think you definitely are. I think you haven't told me a lot."

And why did she what? Talk to Audrey? Ambush Audrey? Why wouldn't she? "Well Audrey's been kinda avoidy and then you've been off busy, so I cornered her first! And then I tried to give you time to remember that you wanted to talk and you never did, so here I am." Perfectly reasonable to Ellie.

"Oh," Was all Alfie said, but thinking about Audrey made him frown a little. "Was she okay? I mean, I haven't talked to her a lot since.... " And she was one of his best friends, maybe his best friend outside of El. He'd been awful to her.

"She was upset and she was dancing around why you two broke up." She wanted to spout out that she thought she knew why they had, but held back. "I don't think it was so great on her self confidence that she had two relationships kinda bomb so close together." Though she and Capper had never officially been together. "I was going to have another talk with her, but she went home for the holidays."

"Yeah..." Alfie sighed, shrugging again. "I didn't know what to say to her, really. None of it was her fault. It was all about...." He gestured to hismelf helplessly, then rubbed at his eyes again. "I should write her over hols. You think I should write her?"

Ellie frowned, now not entirely too sure if the reason the two had broken up was why she thought it was or if he was just upset that Audrey was upset over it all. "You should write her. I think it'll at least help her to know that you two are still friends and you're thinking about her even if you aren't dating any more." She wanted to ask what it was that brought the split, but was trying to give him the chance to bring it up without being pushy.

Alfie pulled his knees up eventually as she answered, so he must have been truly awake and resigned to it now. He was wearing older pyjamas, with little brooms all over them, and they were about four inches too short in the legs.

"Okay," he said shrugging and then wrapping his arms around his knees. "Thanks, yeah, I guess that would help. I'll write her later today I guess."

Ellie didn't like the fact that Alfie looked so vulnerable and upset like that. She wasn't trying to make him feel bad. She'd came into his room in a good mood and it was decidedly going down quickly. So, being her normal self, Ellie quickly leaned close to Alfie and put her arms around him in a hug.

"You need some new bottoms, Alfie," Ellie said, trying to lighten the mood. She pulled back from the hug and poked what little bit was showing of his leg.

Alfie hugged her back. He was okay by the time she pulled away, and he rolled his eyes, shrugging. "Well, I was naked most of the night because it was so warm in here, so you're lucky you caught me with them on." Which wasn't true at all, but he felt like he should probably lighten the mood.

"Oh ew, Alfie," Ellie replied, crinkling her nose at him. She was pretty sure he was joking, but still. They may have been twins and she might have considered him her best friend, but she certainly did not want to see him naked. She hadn't seen that since they were really young and had to share their bathtime together and she wanted to keep it that way. "So... Do I get to know why you and Aud split or did you just come to some sort of stunning self relization and broke it off with her?" She'd tried waiting, but now she was going for the direct approach.

"I guess, if you really want to hear about it..." Alfie looked at her curiously, then laughed - his grin a little mischievous. "What sort of bit stunning sort of thing do you think I would have come to, then?"

If she really wanted to hear about it? Of course she wanted to hear about it! They were both her friends and she wanted to know why they weren't together any more rather then letting her mind run away with why. "I don't know. Maybe that you fancied blokes more? Or that you just can't go on without Dorny." Her words were kept teasing and mockingly dramatic as she grinned at Alfie.

Alfie didn't grin back, though, not at that last bit instead. He squirmed uncomfortably and looked around the room as if to be sure that they were still alone, and he was flushed suddenly, and staring at his knees when he looked back.

"It's that obvious, yeah?"

Uh-oh... Had she unintentionally gotten it right? She'd believed that it was something like that, but she didn't expect this sort of answer. So she scooted over closer to Alfie and turned so that they were side by side and she could wrap an arm loosely around him. "I wouldn't say that. I think it is more just because I've talked to you both and I came up with my own ideas. But he makes you happy, yeah?"

That brought a brighter blush, but Alfie felt himself smiling despite himself. "Yeah," he said quietly, then he groaned and let his head fall back against the headboard of his bed. "You think mum and dad are going to kill me when they find out? You won't tell them, will you?"

Ellie gave a happy little squeal before she calmed herself down. After all she'd done more then enough squealing here recently. She was happy for her brother though. "I don't think they'll kill you. They love you and I think they just want us to be happy no matter what. And of course I won't tell them! This is for you to tell when you want to." She paused and grinned at him. "Though I'm there for you when you do tell them."

"Thanks," Alfie mumbled, then snorted. "Maybe when we graduate and get places of our own. Maybe that would be the best time." Because no matter how much their parents loved him, he couldn't imagine their Dad being.... well, pleased. That his son was a giant poof.

He pushed the thought away and looked at her. "He's a really good bloke. I mean, I like him." Too much, maybe.

"Sounds like you are a bit worried to me, but I definitely won't be pushing you to tell." She really only ever felt the need to push him to tell her things, not others. But she would be there for him if he wanted her there when and if he chose to tell them.

"Hmm... I'll take your word on that." Not that she thought he was bad. "I've only had a real chat with him once and he kinda frustrated me. A lot."

Alfie looked concerned at that, though, looking at his sister suddenly. "He did?" Because it really, really wouldn't do to have his sister not like his... well, his whatever Julien was.

"Yes! He was just so frustrating!" She huffed and pouted at him, crossing her arms over her chest though she wasn't actually annoyed. "But that was when you were both blaming yourselves for kissing and so I was just going in a big circle with him. I'm sure he's easier to put up with when he isn't doing that." And she was pretty sure she worded that poorly.

Alfie blushed again, this time sharply, but laughed. "Oh. Yeah. Yeah... we sort of figured that out, how wrong we were being." And they'd done a lot more than kissing since, but that was definitely not something you told your sister about, twin or not.

Ellie grinned happily, pleased that Alfie seemed so happy about it. "Your blushing again, Alfie. I'm thinking you definitely like him more then I thought you did." That was enough for her not to be overly annoyed at him breaking up with Audrey so soon. She'd just have to find some way to cheer Audrey up. Maybe she'd see about getting her some Weird Sister stuff like she got the other day...

Saying that he was blushing made him blush more, and he shrugged sheepishly. "We've... we've figured some stuff out, you know?" Which didn't really explain anything. Alfie thought it was probably better that way.

She giggled amusedly. She was definitely going to remember this for a while. It wasn't often she got to see Alfie blushing where he still seemed happy and not annoyed or overly embarrassed. "I bet you did. You can keep that to yourself though. It is good you did when you did because I was getting ready to lock you two in somewhere together or something."

Alfie blushed again, but now that she was giggling about it it didn't seem so horrible to tease, and he shrugged and said, "Yeah. That's actually what we did to get over it, too."

She blinked at him and tilted her head to the side, considering what he'd said. "You... locked each other in a room together?" She wasn't even exactly certain how that would work. Had Alfie done it and disarmed Dorny or had it been the other way around?
