Simply Missing You ((Jami))

Wendi brushed through her hair with her fingernails just as she felt someone tap her shoulder. Already knowing who it was, Wendi shrugged him off. “Not now McDuff. I actually have finals to study for.” She said brushing her hand to the air as she flipped the page in her Beginner Potions book. Carr laughed as he moved around her and held on to her shoulders. “C’mon Parson. Five minutes.” He persisted. Wendi bit her lip thinking about it. Finally, she snapped her head. “No, no. Now go away!” She pushed him away playfully as she read over the page about Love Potions. “You don’t want me to fail my finals, now do you?” She asked not really meaning her words as she failed to actually concentrate on her studies. “No because then you couldn’t come stay at my castle in Birmingham for a month.” Wendi’s head snapped over to Carr for the first time since he had approached her. “I know. I know.” She said smiling for a moment. “I’m actually looking forward to it.” She said tapping her finger on his nose. Wendi then turned back to her book. “The triplets already love you from your letters alone and Henri and Lori are dying to leave school and meet you. You’ll love it at the mansion.” He said smiling. Wendi laughed. “Yea, yea.” She said brushing him off with her hand. He smiled and stood up. “Study twiddle dee.” He joked running away. “Hey!” She protested, but too late, Carr had already vanished into thin air.

Half an hour later, Wendi was clumsily walking the castle, Transfiguration book in hand. She was already tired of Potions and decided to move on to the next subject, and leave it to Wendi to study while walking. Wendi tried to flip the page as she walked, but ended up just hitting the corner of the wall. She gave out a grunt as she hit the wall and then fell to the floor. Wendi rolled her eyes at the snickers from some Slytherin first years that were walking by. Earlier in the year, Wendi would have been more upset by this. But, she had grown so much since December. Now, Wendi could stand on her own two feet. She could. Wendi also didn’t care much what people thought about her. Well, besides Carr and Jami and even then, Wendi hadn’t spoken to Jami since December. Wendi wanted to talk to him, she did. It was just so hard now. How could she tell him that in a way, she wanted to believe Keith. Jami would never understand. Wendi just didn’t know what to say to him, but she was trying to figure it out. She was and Carr was helping a lot. He had always had a natural talent for cheering her up. He just had.

Wendi was about to pull herself up from the floor when she felt a hand on hers pulling her up. At first, Wendi was so stunned to see who it was. She leaned back down to pick up her book as the hand pulled away from her. “Thank you so..” She started and then she stared the person in the face. Jami was the last person Wendi would have expected to see. She hadn’t so much as seen him in the hall since January. “Thanks Jami.” She said softly still stunned that it was her big brother that had come to her rescue as always. Wendi eyed the ground and then looked at Jamison. “Look, Jami. I’ve wanted to talk to you, really. It has just been hard. I mean, that letter scared me and..” She paused. “We really need to talk about it okay?” She rambled. “I miss you Jami.” She said simply as she smiled at her big brother. “And as much as I want to take care of myself, I need you. I really, really do. I can’t run forever” She finished as she eyed Jamison with so much meaning in her eyes. Wendi paused and waited for him to answer.

Jamison pushed his NEWTS Defense Against the Dark Arts book away from his face. To think, only a few more months and Jamison would be a Seventh Year student. It was crazy to even think about really. Who would have thought that the lonely, silent, orphan that had entered Hogwarts would turn out to be Jamison? To think, Jamison was now a Prefect, Ravenclaw Chaser, and over all well sort of a chatterbox in a way. Thinking back, it was weird the person that Jami used to be. After all, back in first year, Jamison wanted nothing more than to go back and be with Wendi even though the little blond girl would just push him away and say ‘Go school.’ Which meant go to school in baby Wendi speak. Jamison smiled thinking back. In about a year, Jamison would be a graduate. Did the thought scare him? Oh course. He was still in the process of deciding exactly what he would be doing. Jamison wanted to work for the Ministry of Magic, but what department? He had no idea. Jamison sighed stuffing the book under his bed. Well, he didn’t want to see it for a good twenty-four hours. There was only a certain amount of studying Jamison could do a day without going insane. He sighed and took his wand from his drawer and stashed it in his pocket. Then, Jamison pushed himself from his bed and left the room.

“It will be okay, promise.” Jamison coaxed the first year Ravenclaw girl as he walked her back to the Common Room. It seemed that a fellow Slytherin girl had decided to enlarge the girl’s teeth. Jamison sighed watching the other girl being scolded in the corner by a teacher. Sometimes, being a Prefect was tiring, really. Jamison liked helping people and all, but more cases he was faced with all seemed to be the same. Well, except for that one. Jamison hated of even thinking about it. That night when Celia and Jami had found Kyra would be stuck in his brain forever. It was hard to get something that that out, it really was. Jamison sighed as the first year went inside the Common Room and ran up to her dorm. He then turned around and headed back out to walk the corridors. Jamison hadn’t seen Kyra around lately. Her aunt had taken her from school that night and he had been told that she had been taken to a hospital. Since then, Jami assumed that she would go through some therapy. He sighed. Would she ever be back at Hogwarts?

Jamison was walking about a corridor when he noticed a blond girl walking clumsily. Jamison smiled recognizing the girl. How could he not? She was one of the most important people in his life after all. Jamison smiled as he started to walk up to her. Jamison hadn’t even seen Wendi in the halls since mid-January. Suddenly, he watched her hit a corner from trying to flip a page in her book. Jami shook his head lightly and then walked up to her. He shook his head at the first years that laughed at Wendi on the floor. Jamison smiled giving her a hand. Would she talk to him? Did she want to? For a moment, she didn’t pay any attention to see that it was her brother that had helped her. She just picked up her book. When she noticed who it was, Jamison smiled as to see that she didn’t walk away. He nodded when she said thanks. “No problem little sister. Anytime, you know that.” He said nodding. Jami nodded as Wendi babbled. “No, Wendi. I understand okay. It was confusing and you just didn’t know how to react. It’s okay.” He said nodding. Wendi smiled. Jamison hugged her the second she said that she missed him. Wendi was one of the only people Jamison had left in the world. He couldn’t loose her. He wouldn’t loose her too. “I miss you.” He said instantly. Jamison pulled away smiling at his sister as he noticed small tears looming in her eyes. “We do need to talk.” He said nodding. “And you know what, I need you.” He said knowing he sort of sounded like a girl, but he really couldn’t care less. “C’mon.” He said nodding as he started to walk. Wendi followed her brother. “I’ve been thinking. And I know it sounds crazy.” She sighed. “Talk to him. See what he wants. Tell me everything and then we can figure out what to do. We can beat him, if we know his game.” He said nodding waiting for Wendi to react.
