Towel....Towel....Where are you anyways?
Perhaps he was going crazy now. Holidays....away, psh. What he exactly needed. Beach! Placing his Muggle sunglasses, Justin hit the beach, his eyes searching for somewhere decent enough for him, and near the beach, to sit. After his legs dragged him somewhere, he seated himself on the sand, planning to surf later.
Might be a Wizard and Muggle-hater, but Justin did love Muggle hobbies, due to his parent's dismay.

“KELLER!”
The dark haired girl looked over her shoulder to see two white haired boys run up to her, she turned as they both tackled her to the ground. She looked up to see both of her brothers, she smiled as the 9 year old cuddled into her and she merely ran her fingers through his hair. Arcadian had landed next to her but Aden had landed on top of her. Arcadian moved and laughed at his siblings as the elder boy moved to pin Keller to the ground but she merely brought her leg up and flipped him over her. She stood up as the 9 years old hugged her legs tightly. “ Ok, what are you two after?” Keller smiled at the two, the 19 year old looked down at her as he stood up then kissed her forehead.
“ We missed you,” the youngest said innocently.
“ You seen me two minutes ago Cade,” she said softly then looked at Aden who was merely smiling at her. “ Go back to mum and dad and tell them to get you some ice-cream,” she said to Arcadian who smiled and ran off. Aden stepped forward and hugged Keller.
“ I missed you little sis, sorry I didn’t comeback sooner but I was kind of busy clearing my name,” he whispered before grabbing her and putting her over his shoulder.
“ ADEN!!!! PUT ME DOWN RIGHT NOW!!!!” she yelled as she wriggled then gave up until she realised what he was going to do and started struggling again… Too late. He threw her in the water but she pulled him in to so she wasn’t too annoyed, at least she was in her bikini, he was just wearing his jeans and a shirt. Keller smiled as she walked out of the water. “ Serves you right,” she muttered under her breath.

Apparantely in his own La La Land, Justin hadn't heard the name being called. Not like he cared, when Justin was off somewhere, he was much of a light-headed person. Justin could feel it coming, in a matter of seconds:
1...2...3
&& Swoosh
Water splashed Justin, due to the impact of a body making contact with the surface of the water. Always happens to Justin, apparantely he got used to it. The first time was merely a couple of little kids goofing around and fell in the water.
"Children..." he mumbled under his breath, they apparantely just can't leave Justin alone. In a matter of seconds, he was dried up once again, due to his so-called "powers". Bleh. Been such a pain ever since discovery.
Glancing back at the sea, Justin could see someone getting out of the water, and apparantely, he couldn't make out the figure clearly due to the burning sun above. Shrugging, his gaze returned back to the sea around, before blinking a couple of times.
"Keller?" he wondered outloud, more to himself anyways.

" Aden don't even think about it!" she spun and looked straight at her brother who was trying to sneak up on her. " Back off! You got me wet, I'm in a bad mood with you!" she said with a smile though she tried to hide it. She pushed her older brother into the water again. " Oh how I hate you sometimes," she muttered as Aden walked out of the water and put his arms around her.
" I'm sorry sis, haven't done that you in ages!" he whimpered. Keller looked over her shoulder at him and pushed him backwards into the water.
" You'll never do it again either! Evil brother!" she said softly. She turned around and saw Arcadian running towards her.
" Keller!" he yelled as he once more tackled her to the ground. " Hey big sis," he said as he looked down at his sister.
" Hi Cade," she as she sat up and held her little brother, giving him a tight hug.
" HEY! WHERE'S MY HUG KELLER!" Arcadian looked over to see Aden stumbling out of the water and merely laughed.
" Awww do you want a hug too Aden?" he nodded," tough, you're not getting one!" she laughed as he fell over.

Justin blinked confusingly. Her brother. The brother. Slightly shifting in his place, Justin's gaze traveled to the other little brother, and gave a small smile. He wondered what might it be like with her brothers there.
Rolling his eyes at the thought of overly protective brother, Justin secretly was thankful of having two other annoying sisters instead of a him being a girl -and with that thought, a shudder ran through his skin- and having a big brother.
Deciding to make his presence known, he got up to his feet, allowing his relaxed muscles to twist the tables, and looked up at her family.
They seem happy....too happy.
A sigh escaped his lips at the thought of that, but he plastered an innocent smile on his lips nevertheless. He, nevertheless, decided to lean against a rock and watch them for quite a while. It was just too fun, and completely un-like Justin. Perhaps, it might not be.....er....wise, to go there while her brothers are anyways.
And that's exactly what he did, he leaned against a rock, obviously hidden behing sunglasses, and kept his gaze lingering from the sea towards the Happy Family.

Keller looked over at Justin and smiled warmly. She looked at Arcadian, looking down at him as she whispered something in the young boys ear as he ran off. She smiled as she watched her brother run off. Aden however just watched her and shrugged at her.
“ Aden do me a favour and just jump back in the water or better yet, fall in!” she said as she turned around and walked away from him. She appeared behind Justin.
“ Not going to talk to me,” she whispered as she slipped her arms around him. Keller looked at him and smiled, “ I’m going to move cause in two seconds my little brother is going to come and tackle you to the ground like he’s done to me about four times today…” She looked at him as she stepped back.
Arcadian tackled Keller but she moved so he missed her. “ Like I said, he was going to tackle me. This is Arcadian,” she said as she pointed to the boy on the floor. He stood up and waved at Justin before running and tackling Aden.
Keller looked down for a second. “ Aden wasn’t the one who attacked me, he can to me the other night and convinced me that he didn’t do it,” she said softly. “ I missed him enough to help him, he was a Slytherin like you…”
She looked at Aden who was now looking over at her, she made a little hand gesture and he merely shook his head and walked away with Arcadian. “ I’ve missed you,” she said softly to Justin.

Justin's gaze followed Keller as he plastered a look that indicated much of the best smile he could muster at the time. Justin saw her little brother "attempting" to tackle her to the ground, and he gave him a warm smile as a greeting.
His eyes, however, were glued to the older brother, Aden was his name, or that's what Keller said at least. The words that came out of her mouth rang in his ear “Aden wasn’t the one who attacked me" Much like the word attack only. He nodded his head understandingly, but still, his cold gaze never left her brother.
Justin wasn't that much open for other people, other boys to be precise, and this was probably one of "these moments." He looked back at Keller and plastered a grin on his lips.
"I missed you too." he told her, his voice barely racing with the other people's in the beach voices screaming and playing around. "Miss Valentine. Are you stalking me around?" he asked her jokingly, his face twisting into an innocent look.

“ How come he didn’t tackle you? That isn’t fair! I’m the only girl in the family and yet both my younger and elder siblings tackle me to the ground which is going to leave a bruise later,” she said softly. “ He likes you, usually he threatens any guy that comes within a meter of me,” she shrugged as she watched her brothers walk away.
Keller looked at Justin. “ If you have a crush on my brother I’m sure I could get him to go on a date with you,” she said playfully. She looked at him, Arcadian would keep Aden busy for a while though she knew that Arcadian would find a reason to come back in a few minutes.
She saw him grinning and raised an eyebrow. “ Your grinning, that’s never a good thing.” Keller walked over to him and hugged him, resting her head upon his shoulder, she closed her eyes softly.
“ I’m glad you missed me, if you didn’t I would be very offended,” she whispered in his ear. “ Of course I’m stalking you babe, what else would I be doing here other than being thrown into the water,” she kissed his lips gently as a smile played on her lips.
An innocent smile graced her lips as she spoke, “ I must say your looking very hot today.” She closed her eyes as black satin fell over her eyes, she raised her hands and slipped on the floaty satin jacket. “ Thank you Cade,” she turned around when she heard a small giggle behind her. She knelt down so that she was at the same height as her brothers eyes.
“ Here and here and tell me you love me!” her little brother pointed to each cheek and smiled. Keller rolled her eyes then kissed both of his cheeks.
“ I love you Cade, you’re my favourite guy in the world!” without a seconds delay her brother skipped off, happy as could be. She stood up and closed her eyes. Keller smiled to herself as she watched her brother vanish along the beach.
She looked down for a second as she crossed her arms over her chest. “ He’ll be the death of me, I’m a decendant of one of the darkest families in history and yet the smile of two people makes my heart melt as if was ice being thrown into a fire….”

Justin didn't seem to realize that his gaze was lingering on her brother for quite a long time, and as he heard the words coming out of her lips, realization hit him. He returned his gaze back to Keller with a broad smile "Really? You can?" he asked her jokingly, attempting to continue on with the "game" that keller had started. His innocent smile seemed to reach his eyes, and that was no good sign.
Justin kept that everlasting grin on his lips, mainly because Keller stated "Your grinning, that’s never a good thing.” Innocenec was written on his face, and that seemed to try and reach his eyes, but Justin wasn't that much of an "innocent" person, or so he was told. "And I must state that more clothing doesn't seem to suit you." he joked with her, playing all-innocent.
Listening intently, a habit Justin never had ever in school, espescially in History of Magic, and as that thought came accross his mind, he shuddered inwardly, he was never such a big fan of studying, but who was, and just the mere thoughts of N.E.W.Ts next year didn't seem to be such a happy thought at a time like this....shifting his thoughts back to what Keller was saying, he gave her a genuine smile.
He wrapped one arm around her shoulder, and told her "They must be extremely special, since that smile on your lips never seem to disappear." [/blockquote]

Keller smiled at him, a dark laugh left her elegant lips, she was unable to hold it back. “ My brother would be more than happy to go on a date with you, he enjoys the company of guys as well as girls,” she teased gently.
“ My love, this will be the last time you ever see me in such a tiny bit of clothing. I hate Aden and Arcadian,” she whispered the last part under her breath. She raised her hand to his neck, looking into his eyes. “ If you like it so much I may just have to wear it more often,” she said softly.
She felt his arm around her shoulders, smiling as she looked at him. “ Yes they are but only Arcadian is but one of them, the other is far closer. Funnily enough he has his arm around me, you’re the one who makes me smile when I think of you, Aden still… I don’t know…” she said softly.
Keller looked at him as she gently kissed his hand, she gently touched his hand with hers, her thumb tracing the skin of his hand. “ I had an interesting conversation with a Slytherin a while ago, he thinks that I should be unfaithful to you before you are to me,” she said softly. She said that for a reason, she wanted to know if he would be unfaithful to her, deep down she hoped not.
“ Keller!” Aden walked over to her, she merely gave him a questionable look. “ I’m going to take Arcadian home, I was wondering if you were coming or if your were going to stay here for a while? I don’t want to leave you here by yourself,” Aden glared at Justin but stopped when he saw the dark look Keller gave him.
She slipped her arms around Justin. “ You’ll look after me won’t you?” she looked at him with big innocent puppy dog eyes. She smiled at Justin, he could say no if he wished but he wouldn’t be getting rid of her. Aden glared at his younger sister, she was going to be stubborn. He could tell.
“ Keller, you know I’m only looking out for you, I don’t want you to end up getting into trouble….”

A chuckle was trapped in his throat, as he told her jokingly with a small, -somehow- innocent, smirk on his lips. "Great then, just set the time and the place." His lips turned into a small pout "You look spectacular with whatever you wear, and with whatever you don't wear." he told her playfully, slipping his hands to her neck and childishly ruffled her hair.
Justin couldn't help but find a genuine smile finding its way to his lips, and stubbornly plastering itself there "Apparantely, the same effects seem to take place in me." he told her seriously, before his smile twisted itself into a serious face.
"Allow me to guess who might that amazing Slytherin be...." Justin didn't need that much time to think who it was, or even to retrieve names of Slytherins, it was obvious, and the only name that came to his head anyways. "....Smith Melville." he stated, with no hint of a question, and in a matter of seconds, he retrieved his old face back, with the same genuine smile that invaded his lips a while ago.
His answer wasn't much of words, for he leaned in and gave her a soft kiss on her lips, much to tell her that he is much of unfaithful to her as pigs can fly.... As his head found itself back, he saw Keller's brother finding his way towards them, and giving Justin an unmistakable look that didn't much state that he liked him much, but Justin merely didn't remove that smile from his lips.
"She isn't by herself." he told him calmly, his eyes imitating the same look he was giving him. "And I thought you didn't need anyone to take care of you..." he whispered playfully in her ear. [/blockquote]

" I'll have fun doing that," she whispered softly. She smiled at his innocent look, reaching up to touch his cheek, her fingers tracing his gently. Keller lowered her hands to her side, a pale blush covered her pale cheeks. She felt him ruffle her hair and merely smiled at him. " See if that was anyone but you doing that they would be toast," she whispered playfully. " If I hadn't promised never to tell a guy that him that I love him I would say it to you so you'll have to make do with this," she kissed his gently then smiled.
She laughed gently. " You should smile more, it makes you look irresistable," she whispered as she kissed him gently as she wrapped her arms around him, kissing him neck gently then kissing his cheek. She smiled as she drew back.
" Oh aren't you clever," she said sarcasticly. Keller smiled at him, gently running her fingers through his hair. " Baby, how did you know?" she asked softly. Smiling warmly at him, she as she hugged him tightly. She closed her eyes and smiled, she drew back, clasping her hands infront of her.
She gently kissed him back, wrapping her arms around his neck. Her nose gently rubbed against his. " Don't worry about my brother, he's just over protective, don't let him get to him, don't give him a reason to hit you.... Please.... For me?" she whispered softly in his ear before looking at her brother.
" Yes, she's with you. I can see that but I really don't see how much better that is, your still a boy! How do you suppose to keep her out of trouble, she is stronger than she looks!" Aden glared at them both now.
" I don't, you know that as well as I do," she whispered back before looking at Aden again. She rolled her eyes at her brother. " Aden, I don't need protecting, I can look after myself!" she hissed colder than she wanted to.
" Little sister, I want to keep you safe. After all you've been through you deserve to be free and have fun," he countered quickly.
" I hate you sometimes, really I do." she crossed her arms over her chest as she watched him.
" Come on little sister!" he grabbed her arm.

Justin couldn't help but not ignore the fact that a genuine smile had just reached its way, again, to his lips. And he was the one thinking that he should be cold, unloving, and all Slytherin-ish, but apparantely Keller had changed that fact about him, completely. And the fact that he wasn't the least bothered about it was mainly freaking his self-conscience, but obviously, Justin never listens to it, or else, he'd be the complete opposite of what he really is.
Upon hearing that, the most obvious thing to do was to contain that smile on his lips all day, even if his gaze never really did leave the coldness they had behind these eyes of his.
Justin resisted to roll his eyes at the thought of Smith Melville, but that apparantely, didn't remove the fact that he completely hated the guy before, and after hearing that, his hate obviously didn't decrease any less. He hugged her back, allowing the effect of the place to get to him.
Justin seemed to think about it for mere moments, before nodding his head, words coming out of his lips "Alright then, but if he does try anything Keller, then I won't stay still." he told her seriously.
Justin remained calm all this time, merely just plastering a smile on his lips, as he listened to Aden's comments, simply allowing them to enter from one ear, and exit the other. "Little sister, I want to keep you safe. After all you've been through you deserve to be free and have fun" Justin wanted to reply something that seemed like "And that's why you should let her do whatever she wants." but apparantely, he closed his lips, not allowing the words to escape them.
He blinked a little as Keller said that, but as Aden grabbed her arm, instinct clicked in. "Leave.Her.Alone." Justin said calmly and coldly, emphasizing every word, and gently allowing his hand to encircle Keller's hand. His eyes seemed to reflect dangerously his voice, as he merely lingered it upon her big brother. [/blockquote]

Keller looked over the beach, she had so many fond memories here, when she was a lot younger. Her adopted parents would have only just gotten her, she would have been about three at the time. She’d been scared to go in the water so a 7 year old Aden came out the water and got her. She smiled slightly at the memory and also that the wheel of fate had chosen to repeat itself in that way. Only this time it was a 9 year old Keller coming out of the water to get a three year old Arcadian.
She closed her eyes as she thought about Cade, she was the only one that Arcadian let call him Cade, he hated the name. She opened her eyes as a gentle sigh left her lips. “ He’ll be starting school this year,” she said softly, barely above a whisper.
A smile played on her lips as she felt his arms around her, she felt safe with him there even if she knew she could look after herself it was still nice to have someone there.
“ Ok, I’ll settle for that,” she said softly, as long as Aden didn’t start anything Justin wouldn’t though she knew the chances of Aden not starting a fight would be very slim to none.
Keller looked at Aden, very much wanting to smack him one but she didn’t. She took a silent breath, growing more annoyed with her brother with each passing moment he stood there. She heard Justin speak and closed her eyes, she needed to stay calm otherwise she’d ended up losing her temper. She felt his hand on her own and opened her eyes, looking over her shoulder at him.
“ Aden, let go of my arm,” she said softly as she looked at her brother. Her gaze was colder than Aden liked which usually meant she was going to hit him. Aden reluctantly let go of her arm but his gaze never left Keller’s cold eyes.
“ Come Keller, we’re leaving,” Aden turned to leave then look over his shoulder at Keller, waiting for her to follow him.
“ No Aden, I shall not follow you,” defiance sounded in her voice as she spoke.
“ Keller… Do not start!” he yelled at her, causing a smile to appear upon Kellers face.
Keller looked at her brother, determination was clear in her eyes, she wasn’t going to leave with Aden but she knew he wouldn’t settle for that. “ I’m having fun Aden, you want me to leave that behind which is something I can no do.”
Aden rolled his eyes at her as he turned to look at her again. “ Keller this will only end up like the last time, you’ll get hurt. Just like the last time with…. Feli?”
“ Try Felix Aden, he didn’t hurt me so before you say something so idiotic get your facts right,” she said simply.
“ You have feelings for him, don’t you? You care about that boy?” his eyes quickly moved to Justin.
Keller closed her eyes for a brief moment. Her words caught in her throat then a smile crept upon her lips. “ Yes, I care about him. A lot. Happy now?”
“ No, I don’t like him. He’s a Slytherin right? Of course he is, you only ever like Slytherins!”
“ Oh now I see, you think what happened to you is going to happen to him. You think a Ravenclaw is going to break his heart, he’s got more chance of breaking mine. “ I love him Aden…” her voice trailed off and Aden just stood there wide eyed.

Everything to Justin seemed to happen too quickly. Their conversation, it was as if time was speeding up faster and faster as his eyes darted from Keller to Aden, and back to Keller again. Watching a movie, perhaps, but no, this was much, much realistic to be a movie of any sort. If this was a different situation, he would've requested some popcorn, but this wasn't, this was a real, complicated situation that might end up with someone being killed.
The most likely to be murdered was, obviously, Justin. After Aden let go of Keller's arms, Justin kept a fixed gaze on the rock near him. No, it's not like he hadn't fought with his sisters ever, but this was a different situation that fighting over who goes to the bathroom seemed so lame compared to it. It was lame compared to it. Justin never knew Aden before, but whatever he heard about him didn't really increase his liking towards him.
And now, this, well, perhaps he will just never get along with him. He merely sighed at that thought. Great, now stuck in the middle, well, technically, Keller was. He avoided Aden's gaze, and his gaze lingered at the beach now, unable to remove his eyes at all from, gazing into it.
After hearing what escaped Keller's mouth, Justin blinked a couple of times.
You didn't just hear that.
His mind kept on telling him a million times, but unfortunately, this was not one of Justin's "blonde-moments." He was full aware of what he said, but yet, he pretended not to hear. He couldn't not hear. It was clear. As clear as a lightning striking a metal tower. As clear as a dark ink on white parchment. As clear as snow. As clear as....well, the point is taken.
His eyes seemed to imitate Aden's wide ones, and even though his gaze tried to look anywhere but at Keller or Aden, it returned back to Keller's eyes, fixing a gaze. He opened his mouth and closed it a couple of times, but no sound came out. What would he do? What can he do anyways? He returned to look back at the ocean, then sighed, and looked back at Keller.
"I won't break your heart..." he started, his voice barely over a whisper. This was a start wasn't it? He was tongue-tied after that, wanting to say the words but they never came out. What to do in a situation like that? Never use words. The words never escaped his lips, and instead, he hugged her, lightly, much of a word spoken. [/blockquote]
