I am So Alive -Lupintastic-

[audrina]

"Ileana! Audrina! Come on we have to get going!" Colby yelled up the stairs to her daughers. It was the day they were going to go school shopping which shouldn't have been a big deal but with people watching them it really was it got hard to get all the shopping done sometimes. Colby had given up on making time for a nice breakfast because both her girls had inherited the 'I can go as slow as I want because they can't go without me' thing she had going on when she was their age. "Ileana!" Colby walked up the stair, pounding her her daughter's door. "Come on!" Then she moved over to Audrina's room, banging her fist on that door. "Audrina!" she yelled. She got to the master bedroom and walked in with an annoyed sigh. "I can't believe you're making me do this alone." Colby complained to her husband as she went to check herself in the mirror. She had on black slacks and a blue top that brought out her eyes. She fixed her hair and looked around for her husband. "James I am complaining the least you can do is pretend to listen." She said looking around for him.

She loved her girls, really she did but sometimes it was just really hard to deal with Ileana. Ileana seemed detirminedto make everyone's life a living hell moreso for her mother and her sister. for the most part Colby could handle ileana's attitude towards her but it broke her heart to see her being so mean to Audrina who lived and breathed for her older sister. Colby went to sit on the bed and sighed, this was going to be a long day, on the upside though she'd gotten Natalia to agree to meet them for lunch so she'd get to see her one sane daughter.

Audrina had been woken up that morning by her mother and she had opted to lay in bed for half an hour staring at the ceiling. Finally when her mother came yelled and shouting through the hall she rolled, falling out of bed with an 'oofh!' and got up, going to her bathroom to shower. She stepped into the hot shower letting the water run over her body. She used her citrus shampoo and bodywash and half an hour later she stepped out and got dressed. When she walked out of her room she was wearing neon orange jean shorts, a purple tank top under a black and grey half sleeved shirt and on her head she had a hat with the ear flaps. She unwrapped a piece of gum and popped it in her mouth, knocking on her sister's door and waiting, bouncing on the balls of her bare feet waiting for Ileana to answer.

[Ileana Lupin]

Ileana had been out for a very long night so sleeping was on the top of her Tod list. By god was she going to do it. There was no way that she was going to let her time to be wasted. She was sleeping and it was very nice and then her mother had to come along and wreck it once. She just flicked off the door and hid her head in her black and royal purple pillows. She had recently re done her room and didn't really tell anyone so it was nice it was how ever going to piss off her parents once they say some of the stuff on her walls but they would just have to get over it. She seemed to be asleep for a few more hours until her mother came along and pounded on her door and some very not so nice words came out of her mouth she was going to make her mother and sister's life hell weather they liked it or not. She slept for a little while longer until she heard the brat in the shower.

She groaned and rolled over thinking she had more of her big bed to cushion her back oh no she was very wrong and her body fell to the hard floor beneath her and she swore many more times after that. She resulled with her blankets to finally get them to let her go and she walked into her bathroom. God she hated day light and if she had the choice she would just be nocturnal all the time seemed that her body already wanted her to be a werewolf so why not. She had the water to scolding hot as it ran over her body the bruises and cuts were bad from letting herself transform it wasn't like she had hurt anyone and as long and she didn't let anyone know she had skipped her potion just once it wouldn't hurt anyone. She started washing herself with a fresh rain smelt shampoo it was the best scent ever rain.

She finished washing herself with the ocean scented stuff and then stepped out in a purple towel. She went over and brushed her teeth lightly and then put on her make up and making her hair dry showing the pink in it. She knew it drove the press wild and she had just redone it. She smirked and walked over to her wardrobe and started pulling on a pair of dark jeans with the knees blown out and she wasn't to blame she had bought them like that. She then had to choose very carefully what shirt could she wear and not get in trouble with her mother for. She pulled out a neon purple tank top pulled that on but the cut and bruise could still be seen. So she grabbed some cover up and covered the bruise and then grabbed a thicker black tank top and put that on covering up the cut just enough. He pulled out a pair of sun glasses and put them on her face. She really was done with this banging on her door thing. She pulled on a pair of converse and triple knotted them and stood up she grabbed her guitar a moment thinking her sister had moved on and she was playing a few cords and then it sucked she heard the gum wrapper that was a plus of being inhuman you had better senses. She stopped threw it down and walked over grabbing her black purse putting it on like a message bag and opened her door. " What?

[/b]" She passed by her sister and walked off toward the stairs.

James was just about to leave when he heard his wife come in complaining her really did need to get to work and he did his tie and laughed as she spoke. " I am listening and if I could I would come with but there is some drama going on at the ministry that I must attend to and if they give you any trouble love they are grounded done end of story. They will work at the ministry. Or in Ileana's case a barn...[/b]" He kissed her lovingly and hugged her tight but then he left the room calling back to her. " You will be alright.[/b]" [/color] [/blockquote]

[audrina]

Audrina brightened when the door opened and opened her mouth to say something but Ileana walked right by her. Audrina turned and hurried after her sister. "Hey Ileana! Did you know that the biggest ginger bread house ever was like, twenty eight feet tall, it was be enough for people to actually walk in?" She asked, hurrying after her. She needed to go get her shoes on. She stopped at the top of the stairs and sighed, going back to her room to find her shoes. She ended up in two different converse, one was a regular orange one and the other was shite nad looked paint spattered. She tied them and grabbed her bag before hurrying out again, nearly running into her mom on the way down. "Sorry." She said quickly before running around her down to find Ileana. People, mostly her mom and older siblings, were always asking her why she was always trying to make Ileana happy. They told her to just leave it alone, but she coudln't. She didn't know why but she really wanted her big sister's approval.

If Audrina really took the time to think about it, and she had, then she would say it probably had something to do with the idea that if her big sister didnt like hr then something had to be wrong with her. Well she knew there was something wrong with her, she heard it on a regular basis, if the kids at school didn't think she was insanely cool for her odd fashion and the fact that she just didn't care about anyone else then they found her almost unbareably weird. She was okay with that. Anyway, she just really wanted hersister to like hr because to her Ileana was, quite possibly, the coolest person on the planet. She went to the kitchen to get something to eat, nearly tripping over her own feet in the process.

Colby rolled her eyes. "James, they're going to Hogwarts in a week, you really think grounding would do any good?" She asked, sighing as he left. She ran a hand through her hair and went to the dor, the worst part was, she coudln't always punish Ileana for being mean to Audrina, because Ileana had her right to privacy and Colby knew that it was not fun having your younger sister tagging along everywhere. She walked out of her room only to be nearly run over by Audrina. She shook her head and went down. She rolled her eyes agains when she saw Ileana's hair. It was ridiculous. Really, pink hair? But she took a deep breath and didn't say anything about it, she wasn't going to make a big deal of it this morning. She Ran a hand through her own dark hair and walked over to Audrina who'd just tripped over air. "Careful baby." she wasn't a fan of Audrina's outfit either but again, she wasn't going to cause a problem this early in the morning.

[Ileana Lupin]

Ileana rolled her eyes at the fact that her little annoyance of a sister was still following her. She was talking about the worlds biggest ginger bread house. She didn't care about ginger bread houses she didn't care about her annoyance of a little sister anymore. She just played it off like she didn't bother her but as soon as school came about the little hufflepuff went her way and Ileana just kept to herself until she and her friends came together and started causing trouble. She rubbed her temples thanking god silently for getting the brat to leave her alone. Oh god was it nice to get her voice away from her. Living in a house with nothing but normal people was really starting to get on her very last nerve. She took a deep breath in and let it out slowly as she slid down the banister jumping over two house elves in the process. She just rolled her eyes that was most defiantly something she had gotten from her mother she walked over to the kitchen ignoring all the hussle and bussle and heard her dad pop out and she waved saying. " Like it would really matter if any of us cared that you were never here. Oh wait that's right one of these days you'll just be the man who helped create our wonderful little souls.

[/b][/color]" She rolled her eyes and peeled some of the bacon and sausage from the plate and placed it in her mouth.

All the house elves looked at her eyes and mouth wide with distaste with what she had just said. She wasn't a morning person and she was pissed and the fact that her body ached from two nights ago was just not adding to a pleasant mood she sat down on the counter and was eating the meat she hated the after effects of being a monster she craved meat but her stomach just ached for days it was like seriously she was annoyed with it. Eating things that she knew she shouldn't but did anyway. She rolled her eyes again when she watched her klutz of a sister come in to the kitchen tripping over her own two feet it was just as sad as ever. How could she be related to the hufflepuff nerd. She was probably the reason she had to work so hard to get the Slytherin's respect and fear. She caught her mother coming in and already she got her to roll her eyes it was now her own personal best record of the summer it was amazing. She heard her mother telling the little girl to be careful. Ileana hopped down from the counter and walked over to their potions cup board. She started going through all the bottles not taking anything from the two shelves that held her werewolf potion that she was supposed to take. She pulled a red one out instead of the green one and downed that. It was so her stomach would stop hurting so much.

She rolled her eyes and said under her breath not thinking anyone could hear her. " Yeah wouldn't want the baby of the family breaking anything. Pain would just be the worst thing to ever flippin' happen in this family.[/b][/color]" She sighed and handed the potion bottle to the house elf in charge of making the potions. Where she let it slip. " Boy miss. You are going through the stomach potions. Are your green ones okay I haven't had to make any all summer are they still okay?[/b]" Ileana had slipped into drinking some juice and she nearly spit it back out about ready to tell the little thing to shut it's mouth before she did it for it. She forced herself to swallow, then said in a less then pleased voice. " Yeah they are just dandy thanks for asking.[/b][/color]" She growled more of a real growl and then she stopped and went back to drinking her juice.[/blockquote]

[audrina]

Audrina heard her sister's comment but didn't say anything because she knew if she did their mother would yell at her and that woud just make Ileana madder at her. She pressed her lips togethar and just chewed her gum. She cracked her knuckles and went to get a box of cereal. "Mum I need new robes, apparently the glow in the dark paint wasn't as washable as they said." She had painted her robes last year and in the dark they would glow with whatever she had painted on them, she'd done slogans, pictures, just random things and she'd done it to every set of school robes she had, but it hadn't really washed out, it had bleached them so the messages were permanently in the fabric. She looked down at her shoes and up at Ileana who was downing a potion. Audrina made a face. She didn't understand how her sister could handle the potions, they all made Audrina want to barf, they all tasted bad. IT was like a potion law. Of course there was one potion Ileana had to take, or so Audrina thought anyway, the green potions for when she changed, Audrina just hoped she'd never have to go through that. So far she was good and she was pretty sure that after a certain point they didn't have to worry, no one even contemplated the idea that it would happen to Natalia, well until she got pregnant, whenever there was a huge change in hormones all eyes were on them, waiting. Same thing was happening to Vi now too. Regardless, Audrina was just hoping beyond hope that it didn't happen to her.

Audrina dropped the box when the house elf mentioned Ileana not taking the green potion. She peeked into the cabinet and sure enough there were green bottles of potion lined neatly against the wall. She picked up the box and went to get a bowl, looking down, not wanting to get in the way of what was inevitably going to happen. She poured herself a bowl and cereal and went to get the milk, trying to avoid Ileana, not wanting to make her even angrier. She bit her lip gently, taking her gum out of her mouth to throw it away on the way to the fridge. She got there and pulled out the milk, pouring it into the bowl. As she was going to put it back the heavy bottle slipped from her hands and hit the ground. It was a plastic jug so it didn't break but the lid popped off sending milk everywhere. Audrina's eyes widened and she looked at Ileana then her mother. "I'll just get the mop..." Okay she didn't know where the mop was, but the house elves were there before she could move anyway.

Colby smiled at her daughters and waited for them to finish their breakfast, they needed to get going. She hadn't realy been paying attention until the house elf asked about Ileana's green potion. That brought her to life. She stood up and looked at her pink haired daughter. "Excuse me?" She asked, going past Audrina to the cabinet, sure enough there were potion bottles filled with the liquid that was suppose to keep Ileana somewhat in her own mind when she changed. "What the hell Ileana?" She asked, coming out with a bottle in her hands. "Do you think this is optional? Ileana Nymphadora this is not okay!" She looked over when Audrina dropped the milk and she put the bottle down, pressing her hands to her face. She couldn't deal with this right now. She needed James here to take care of his crazy children. She ran a hand through her hair. "Take your damn potion." She said with a note of finality. "That is not a suggestion." She added. "We have to get going." She was going to be telling James about the potion thing, and Elijah becuase if there was one person who took it more seriously than she did it was Elijah.

[Ileana Lupin]

Ileana made a mental note to make her mother's day hell. She took the red one and the stupid little house elf. Her mother didn't understand and she doubted she would even care. So her mother starts getting all into it making a big old scene it wasn't like she was the one doing it she was making taking a potion about how much it hurt the days after. She growled and nearly laughed historically when her brat of a sister dropped the milk she would do something like that. It was so her to take a intense situation and do something that focused the attention somewhere else. She turned her body so she wouldn't be seen by her mother and just smiled and laughed a little hiding it from her mother and everyone else. She just smiled a little and then went about looking at her mother with a serious expression on her face even though she wasn't going to be taking it not even if the woman pried her mouth open and had to pour it into her mouth. Ileana wasn't going to be taking it it was Kay for boys to be werewolves it was Kay for them to have to go take a potion. So her brother could get away with it. A girl taking a potion to become something gross and just rotten blood all together she'd like to see her mother deal with social death. She'd become her sister and she just couldn't do it.

Ileana watched as her mother started to get a bit more firm with her. She just rolled her eyes again as her mother said it wasn't a suggestion. She just laughed thinking about it all this was insane. She wasn't going to talk about anything to her mother there wasn't a point she wasn't going to talk to her dad because he didn't understand and Elijah would understand but he'd only understand to a point. He wasn't a Slytherin and he wasn't a girl. Half anythings didn't get along well in that area. She just got pissed and waited a while to see what her mother did with her little sister. While she went on she just had a small smirk on her lips and she played with the potion between her fingers and she looked over at her mother then her little sister and then the house elves then the potion disappeared into her sleeve and down into her bag without being seen then she grabbed the empty one from her pocket and made a face. " Oh goodie wet dog flavored.

[/b][/color]

She rolled her eyes and grabbed some more meat about her stuff. She then in a more irritated voice " Well then lets get a move on. Burning daylight already it's actually quite sad how slow you all are come on.[/b]" She growled under her breath and waited quietly. She blinked a few times and just stayed quiet about it all not sure what else to say. She looked over her shoulder and pulled the green potion out of her bag and set it in one of the shoes that was lifted in the entry way and she went about picking up all those shoes and she left them there she never picked up ever and now she was straightening up something. Then she turned away from there and then asked more a loud. " How are we getting there?! MUM! How are we getting there?![/b][/color]" [/blockquote]

[audrina]

Audrina sighed, looking up to see Ileana hiding the bottle. She opened her mouth to sa something but stopped, pressing her lips together again. She'd bring it up with Ileana first, she didn't need her sister hating her any more than she already did because she couldn't keep her big mouth shut. She bit her lip and grabbed for her bag, hurrying after Ileana when she walked out. "We'll probably floo there like we do every year." She said realisticly. She looked back at her mum who looked distracted, staring at the counter. "Mum?" She asked. Finally Colby looked up and nodded. Audrina smiled and looked at Ileana, her smile fading when she looked at her face. She looked back at her mum who was standing now and heading for the fireplace. It scared her when her mum got like this, and Ileana was the only one, as fas as Audrina could tell, that could do that to her. Audrina sighed and fixed her shorts, grabbing a handful of floo powder. It was going to be a long crappy day now and she jsut wanted it to be over already. It sucked because she always looked forward to going to Diagon alley and running around buying her school stuff, one last outing before she was shippedoff to the drab halls of Hogwarts where she was doomed to be ' Baby Lupin' forever. She toyed with her hat while she waited for her mum to hop in the fire and floo away.

Audrina looked at her feet before looking at her sister. "I saw the bottle." She informed her before tossing in her powder and stepping in "DIAGON ALLEY!" She called. Audrina hated flooing. She hated the dizziness and the feeling and she just hated all of it. She stepped out of the fireplace and brushed herself off. Her mother handed her some money and her list telling her to be at a little restaurant called incantum where they were suppose to eat with Natalia. "Okay mum I'll see you." She kissed her mum's cheek and walked out, waiting by the door for Ileana. She poked the toe of her shoe into the dirt and looked around a few people waved at her and she waved back half heartedly. She blew her hair out of her eyes and looked, still waiting for her sister to come out. She knew Ileana didnt like it when she waited around for her or followed her around or really acknolwdged her in public at all, but Audrina didn't really care. She was going to talk to her sister.

Audrina yawned and closed one eye, keeping the other on the door. She sighed when someone called her name and looked up. It was some girl from her dorm, Julia something or another. Audrina waved and the girl bounded over, apparently waving meant 'hey come over I want to talk to you.' Audrina kept her eye on the door and pretended to be paying attention to Julia who was apparently actually named Jenna. She didn't care, really Audrina just couldn't care less.

[Ileana Lupin]

Ileana rolled her eyes and watched her mother leave good riddance to her. Ileana sighed a little and then her little sister came in and she of coarse had to be the brat she was had to talk and it just pissed her off. She waited till they were both gone and she let out a serious scream that was combined with some growling in there. " God this family is so retarded this brat thinks she knows me and the mother thinks she can control everything like to see them all deal with the shit I deal with. I'd like to see them live.

[/b][/color] Ileana went over and grabbed her floo powder and screamed out where she wanted to go. She wanted to go to hogwarts where the brat wasn't in her way and where her mother couldn't do anything wrong that would piss her off like she was now. She bit her lip as she appeared in the fire place.

She came out and to no big surprise her mother wasn't there. She needed to get rid of her mother anyway she is just pissing her off anyway. Not to mention ever since she became a werewolf she felt like her mother looked at her with pity. She didn't need pity she wanted to be normal. She walked through the door and rolled her eyes already and Jenna the little hufflepuff chick was talking to her sibling. Who was just that much more annoying. She didn't have time for this " Yo! Freak! come on lets get going probably have orders from the prison warden anyway. Come one I have no time to wait at the moment. Audrina Lupin! Lets go![/b][/color] With that Ileana took her hair and clipped it up showing a slight bruise on the base of her neck.

Ileana started looking around and she asked over her shoulder Well where too first books? Parchment? quills? Ink? Cloths? What did she give us money for?[/b][/color]" She was on edge and she really wished her mother would get over ever thing and just deal with it she and the baby sucked it up and dealt with it so why couldn't she not that she was complaining she was just going to ditch them anyway go find some of her friends. Probably end up going to a pub and have fun just had to wait for the right moment to disappear. [/blockquote]

[audrina]

Audrina was trying to think of a way to get rid of Jenna without looking like a jerk. She didn't dislike Jenna she just... didn't care about her summer. She poked her toe into the dirt again, waiting for Ileana still. Then Jenna noticed her shoes and launched into how cool it was that Audrina was brave enough to dress like this. Apparently that didn't sound like an insult to her. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked past Jenna. Apparently this girl just didn't get subtle hints. She was really considering just freaking out at the girl. She hated when people did this. She hated when they put her in this position. It was great that they liked her but she didn't want it to be because she dressed like a blind thrift shop owner. She wanted to be recognized and liked for who she was as a person, not that any one really knew who she was. They would never guess that she spend eighty percent of her life trying to please her unpleasable sister. They couldn't guess that she was actually much sadder than she let on. Nope, everone just thought of her as airy, happy-go-lucky Audrina Lupin. Hufflepuff Sweetheart and the most amusing dresser this side of the World Cup. Nope, she was good at pretending, but they really sucked at observing. She toyed with her hair, finally opening her mouth to say something to Jenna about leaving her the hell alone when Ileana came busting out, going on and on about something or another. Audrina jumped and hurried after her, not even waiting to say goodbye to Jenna. When Ileana called Audrina was there.

"What's that?" She asked, pointing at a bruise on Ileana's neck. "You know, I won't tell mum about the bottle and... well the bruise I guess." She had to hurry to keep from behing left behind. "Really, I can keep a secret. There's a lot of things I know that others don't. Especially mum." She pressed her lips together after that. She knew Ileana didn't like it when she talked too much. But that was one of Audrina's problems. she always talked to much. Because at school she had to play the part of the cheery bubbly minister's daughter 'oh yeah we're so perfect and happy'. So to hide what she was really feeling she just filled in the dead air with stupid usless babble that people thought was either adorable or annoying and quite frankly she respected the people who thought it was annoyig a lot more. She fixed her shorts and kept her strides long and fast. She wasn't much smaller than Ileana but Audrina normlly had a slow leisurely pace to everything she did, something she apparently did not share with her sister who wanted to get this stuff done as soon as humanly possible, which hurt, but she was use to it by now. Ileana never wanted to be seen with her for too long. Audrina didnt know why, it was probably the clothes, but Audrina wasn't sure how to dress normally. She didn't know how to put together an outfit that everyone else considered normal because she'd ben dressing like this since she was three. It was how she was.

"Oh umm... books, robes for me, any supplies we need to restock." Audrina answered. "I guess a robe fitting furst, then we can go do other things while the robes are being made." She was excited to get to pend some time alone with Ileana. "Oh and Mum wants us to meet her and Natalia at Incantum." She nodded. "Which should be fun, I was reading her column the other day and apparently... okay you probably don't care." Audrina looked down but kept walking. "So we can do the robes then the books because that'll take the longest." She said confidently. She wished she hadn't worn such a long sleeved shirt, it was getting warmer than she expected. "Then I guess everything else then to lunch. I don't know if mum's going to let us hang out on our own after that though. seh might just want to go home after.... well this morning." There were people saying hi to the both of them but she was ignoring them, concentrating on her siste and nothing else.

[Ileana Lupin]

Ileana wanted any excuse that she could get to be late for lunch. She looked over at her little sister and quickly spun in front of her and took off her sunglasses which held a very red eye from a stick the other day. But her eyes were as intense as ever. " Okay Miss weird facts. First off you were actually getting on my good side with not mentioning jack all into mum. Which was good until you went all gun hoe with the stupid bruise listen to me okay. You wont be telling mum about that at all you wont tell her about the bruise and you wont tell her about my eye and most of all you wont EVER!!! Talk about my shit in public okay that is the last thing we need the post will be on us like stink on crap. Mum will never let us out of her site after that and then you make my shit list and trust me you don't want to be that ever in here or at school at school I will make you so much less then the dirt I walk over every day and being blood I really don't want to do that to you but I don't have a fear of doing it. You got it. Now...

[/b][/color]"

She pushed her glasses up and turned on her heels again. " We are not doing your robes first one because they take for ever and two our goal for today is to get as much time away from the prison warden the goal of the day is to be late for lunch. That is why our oldest sibling is here to talk to Mum plus your right I don't care why she is here and I really don't care what she has to say in her col um. Why because as amazing as our blood is I don't care. I'm allowed and I'm taking you cloths shopping please try and pick up as many tips as you humanly can we are getting you noticed this year and if you really have an issue with it get over it. You are going to get used to it and it'll get you on the possibility list so shut up follow me and keep talking but not so open do NOT follow stand next to and keep a two foot distance nod to people but DO NOT STOP!![/b][/color]

She rolled her eyes under her glasses held out her hand and made the motion for the little freak to hand out the money. " Audrina we are going to make you hott money now.[/b]' She sighed and continued to walk and then turned to the left going straight into the book store. She sighed aggravated and a clerk came to her. She grabbed her list and then snapped her fingers quickly showing that she wanted her little sister to cough up her list and the money. " Okay my books her books we need them and I need them fast we have a ton more to do and my Mum has us on a schedule and my father will be very displeased if you don't comply with us. I will get over it but hey I would like to deal with someone happy in the process because I am not happy.[/b][/color]" She stood there tapping her foot waiting for her sister to supply the list and the money still.[/blockquote]

[audrina]

Audrina, who had been very close behind Ileana nearly ran into her when she stopped and turned to look at her. Her eyes widened when she saw her sister's eye and she just looked up at her older sister, surprised and a bit scared. She was happy that she was on her good side even for a short side, that meant there was a good side and it was possible to get there. "I would never tell mum about that." She insisted. "I um... if you didn't tell her then there must be a reason. If you want her to know then you'll tell her... right?" She asked. She was confused, but she wasn't going to let it show. She smiled and went into her school persona, the blissfully stupid, who cares Audrina. She didn't like doing that around her sister but that was how she re acted to almost everything anymore. She pressed her lips together, another habit of hers and just smiled. "Who would I tell? No one wants to hear that from me." Nope no one wanted to hear anything from her unless it was cheery or a random fact that she was so known for. She liked random facts but... whatever. She wasn't going to question her place in life right now. After all she was fourteen, she had years to actually become a person in the general public's eyes.

She faltered when Ileana said she wanted to go slow. She wanted to be late for lunch so she didnt' have to deal with mum. "Ithought you'd want to see Natalia." She said gently. The last she heard Ileana still did have some respect for their oldest brother and sister. Well apparently not. She shrugged. She didn't care. She thought about her sister's next statement. "Actually I get noticed all the time." She said, figuring that's what she meant. Of course she didn't even contemplate the idea of Ileana meaning noticed by a guy. She kept after her, "Well I can't walked beside you if you walk so fast." She whined. She regretted it as soon as it came out but there was no taking it back from there. "Seriously Ileana, slower." She said, Audrina was not in shape. she was scrawny for sure, but she wasn't in shape. She was getting out of breath from trying to keep up. "Where are we going to go clothes shopping?" She added, tripping over a crack, but managed to keep from completely falling over and hurried to catch up again.

She walked into the bookstore and kind of drifte out until Ileana demanded the lists. The lists? Oh yeah the list! She quickly dug through ehr bag finding the lists and held them over to her sister. She smiled sweetly at the clerk and looked at Ileana. "Really Leani, tone it down, this guy would go to the prophet in a second with a great 'Lupin kids are brats' story." She muttered. She knew Ileana had better hearing than a normal person. She dug out the money and after a moment of hesitation handed it over to Ileana. She wasn't sure if her sister was going to leave her now, after all she had the money.

[Ileana Lupin]

Ileana really wasn't excited about this all of a sudden change in attitude between her sister and her. She growled under her breath as her little sister complained and whined all about how she was walking to fast. She rolled her eyes and then reluctantly slowed down and let her pathetic sister catch up. After they got into the book store and she handed the man both of their book lists and after getting the money she slipped his a few coins of her own to be quiet and she knew the guy she had set him up with the other girl in the store across the way. She smiled as he smiled and nodded going to get the books and wrap them for the two of them. She looked around and then held up her finger to everyone and walked off somewhere more privet. When her Little sister followed her she took off her sun glasses again and with a deadly look and aimed it at her little sister.

She looked at her little sister and growled. " Listen you were okay and now you are really working fast on getting on the list not just on it but on the top of it. So you will stop whining and you will STOP talking to me. You are my little sister so why in the HELL are you calling me Leani in PUBLIC?! Listen I will ditch you if you keep it up and it pisses me off but it is just annoying that you are always doing this crap in public you are not the boss of me Audrina in fact I'm in charge of you and you do nothing but whine that I'm to fast the fact is you are right I am acting mean and he could go to the stupid post. But he wont why because not only does he want to leave but at the same time he doesn't want to piss two girls off. Ones who have to go shopping more he knows better then to do anything. So stop doing the shit you are doing or you will have more to worry about then just being ditched for the day.

Ileana looked at her sister and rolled her eyes. " Really Audrina. I Know you are noticed I hear about it ALL THE TIME. But not that kind of noticed Audrina! I meant by boys its time that you started talking with them it is time that you should start dating and stuff come on you can't say you don't wanna be noticed by at least one guy this year.?[/b][/color]" Ileana put her glasses back on as the guy started to come over with the package books. " Books for the older miss and the younger miss have a good day you too.[/b]" Ileana flashed a smile a sweet little smile and in a bubbly tone she said " Thank you kind sir you are wonderful![/b][/color]" She shrugged her shoulders and grabbed her things and then started to walk over she had already paid him so she quickly walked over and waited for her sister she rolled her dark eyes reminding herself to slow it down for her sibling.[/blockquote]

Audrina wanted to go over and look at books, she wanted to walk around the bookstore, maybe buy a couple of things. But no, she couldn't because she knew if she walked off Ileana would take the chance to run off and leave her behind. So Instead Audrina bit her lip and poked her toe at a bookshelf. She was bored. She remembered her first year, when they had gone shopping she'd been so excited. She had run around followed after her mum buying all new stuff, she'd gotten her very own cauldron, something she hadn't been allowed to have before, she got her wand. There was something about going into Ollivanders for your very first wand that made the whole idea fo Hogwarts very real and very excited. Also a little bit scary, but usually you didn't admit that part. Audrina has felt so proud too, walking with her family into each store, because that was one of the few times. her dad went with them school shopping Ileana had been pleasent because both mum and dad were there and that meant even more people were watching them. Audrina sighed and took the hat off, running a hand through her hair. She leaned against the shelf and looked down at her legs. She didn't have nice legs. She they were decent, long, tan that whole shtick, but they were scarred up from years of Ileana tricking her into doing things that would hurt. Also they were really thin, she had chicken legs.

Audrina's jaw clentched when Ileana started in on her rant. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked down. She thought about what her mum had told her just last week. She'd said something along the lines of Ileana wasn't perfect and that she (Audrina) needed to stop trying to please her. She'd also overheard, many times, her mother and sister and dad and brother all at various times talking about how they felt bad about how Ileana treated her. She knew it wasn't ideal, she knew that Ileana did treat ehr like crap but Ileana was her big sister and Audrina wanted nothing more than to please her. After all if her own sister couldn't love her, didn't think she was any good, then who would? She sniffed and wiped her nose. She didn't cry anymore, it was too much. Besides she knew crying just made Ileana madder so she kept it inside and shrugged and looked over at the guy rushing around to get their books. "You're not in charge of me." Audrina muttered to herself, kicking at the shelf again. After Ileana had finished her rant she shrugged. "Sorry." She muttered a bit louder so it could be heard. She looked up, reading the spines of the books, for lack of anything else to do.

For a split second Audrina was going to smile, Ileana had heard about her through the school grapevine, then she realized that what she was hearing annoyed the hell out of her. Of course. She shrugged. "I really don't care. After all what do I need with a boyfriend anyway?" She asked. "Besides to ninety percent of the male population of the school I'm Aud-ball." She added. It was a stupid nick name, but it did kind of fit. "And I do talk to guys, I just... don't talk about how cute they are and I don't giggle so the boys in my house think I'm odd for that." She shrugged, and fixed her shirt. She smiled at the guy who brought them their books and walked after Ileana , trying to move faster to keep up and not make Ileana walk too slow.

Ileana gave up she didn't know what she should do. She just didn't want to waste more of their time this bickering alone was making them later then they needed to be. She closed her dark eyes under the dark sunglasses it was sad just how quickly and how easy it was to break her some times. Today just wasn't a day for her to be so bitchy but she really didn't have any other chance other then two do it. Her family was annoying and just no one had the chance and now she didn't care. She walked slower for her sibling and shrugged her shoulders not caring any longer. " You know what Audrina fine but I give up and don't care any more. Lets just get this over with so after wards you and I both can go our separate ways and not deal with it anymore.

She walked slowly to the clothing robes store and she smiled seeing the girl she smiled and then the older woman came out and she looked at Ileana and rolled her eyes and smiled when the girl spoke. "[t] Both Lupins please.[/b][/color]" Ileana walked over to the girl behind the counter and started to compliment her and such and started to slightly flirt with her. But she was flirting back so it didn't bother her too much and she wasn't to worried that she was going to get something out of this. Then she got the answer she wanted the girl handed over just enough to get a couple of robes but it was okay and she really was happy with the girl she got the girls information. Slowly slipped it into her pocket and she promised to write to the girl as much as she could. She ran her hands through her pink and dark brown hair. She just got up on her own stool and they quickly measured her they told her that they were amazed with how much weight she had lost in less then a couple of months.

She just smiled and they smiled and went to go cut her robes. She sat down crossed her legs lightly and looked forward into the mirrors looking at her younger sister getting fitted. She was quiet and looked at her younger sister and just stared at her own reflection. She was so confused and she didn't smile she didn't do anything she for the first time in a very long time felt helpless and desperate just to have some answers. Her eyes felt hot under her sun glasses and she was going to let the hot tears fall over but again she was stopped she wasn't going to cry not in public. She sighed looking around as people started talking to her and her sister. She looked to her right at the clock seeing where the hands where which only made her smile. " You do realize we are over a half hour late to meet mother?[/b][/color]" [/blockquote]

Audrina sighed she hated it when ileana got like this. It was even more annoying than when Ileana was yelling at her. It really made her feel like she was a useless lump of nothing. She sighed and looked down at her feet as they made their way out of the bookstore. "I'll be back." She said quickly and turned back into the store, using her own pocket money she bought herself a book. This was goig to be a very boring few hours if Ileana was going to completely ignor her or give up or whatever it was she planned on doing. she hurriedly caught up with her sister as they walked to the robe shoppe and Audrina sat down with her book while she waited for her turn. She always let Ileana go first... she didn't know why... but she did. She was past the second chapter when they finally were ready for her.

She had strong feelings that her sister was harbouring more than platonic friendship towards the female populous of the world, especially at times like this when she was outright flirting with the girl behind the counter, however Audrina had some sense of self preservation and knew that if she opened her mout Ileana would not hesitate to whomp her upside the head. She really didn't think she should give Ileana any reasons to knock her in the head. So she kept quiet as they got the robes all fitted, allowing for a bit of growth over the next year or so, resulting in robes that were a bit too long for her, but Audrina liked it. She didn't request for a double seam so it could be let down as needed she'd just let them drag, she really didn't mind it at all. She smiled and thanked the nice lady when she was done, hoping down from the stool and going over to her sister.

"Since when do you care about being late?" She asked, walking to the door and holding it open for her sister. She knew her mother was going to be mad. Ileana definitly got her anger from their mother, at least as far as Audrina could tell, but she would never say it outloud, because of the same reason she was keeping the flirting to herself. She just hoped Natalia wasn't too peeved, but seeing as Natalia was late to just about everything she didn't see that being a huge problem. She tucked her book under her arm and started walking towards the restaurant, already deciding what she was going to get. No Meat, she was going to try the vegitarian thing and it was pretty easy until the full moon, then she got hungry but still, she could do it, she was going to do it if it killed her and it very well could as far as she knew, but realy, would that be a bad thing? Who would honestly miss her?
