✿Samantha stood out in her yard, letter in hand at 8:58 in the morning..over her shoulder was two things...the first was her bass guitar in it's case...a black case with all sorts of band stickers stuck on it. Over her left shoulder was her duffel bag which held all the clothes she was going to need for the trip...she had no idea how long she would be staying there...so it was best to be prepared. Samantha herself had her red glasses on, wearing a brown bomber jacket, a plaid shirt and skirt combo...along with very thick kneehigh socks and black boots. It felt...really odd for her to being going over to an older classman's house for the holidays...she didn't know what to expect...but she knew she was going to be staying with people who she would have to watch herself around...unless she wanted to stumble around at their beauty. Immediantly Samantha would shake her head violently before saying to herself, "Look Sam...best case scenario...it's just for the day...worst case...it's until the winter break ends...either way you got this...doesn't matter that she's nice and smarter than you in most things...none of that matters...Your Niccy's friend and this is going to be fun."Samantha looked down at her watch...8:59:59am...it was about to happen...as soon as 9 struck...Samantha felt the letter pull her into the sky...her stomach churned and twisted as she felt herself travailing through the air....hopefully she would never have to this again..in fact...when she arrived at her destination...she had tumbled roughly to the ground, on her face...but just where was she now? |

Nicolette stood at the garden outside of the Delacour mansion. A pool rested at its center, gentle rippling water reflecting the sun overhead. Benches and stones of a good size for sitting on were strewn around the landscape. Statuary, most of it marble and of human subjects, stood here and there, often framed by flowers or placed between young trees, made spidery with the onset of winter. Snow was yet to touch this region of France, although the voluminous clouds that covered the sky showing of promise of a white Christmas occurring.
[break][break]
Nicolette was positioned on one of the stone benches, wrapped in cosy crimson robes and a woollen scarf wound around her neck. Her lazy blue eyes were currently cast upon a thick novel laden across her lap as she waited the arrival of one Samantha Albright.
[break][break]
Her silver wristwatch chimed and on cue, came the appearance of the muggleborn, looking as dishevelled as one normally might expect from someone unaccustomed to portkey travel. Having expected the arrival, Nicolette looked up, surveyed the rough appearance of the fifth year, and laughed lightly.
[break][break]
"Uncomfortable, is it not? I find it easier to land on your feet when you start moving your legs as though you are walking. Just when you feel ze 'ook behind your navel."
[break][break]
With that said, Nicolette swung her slender legs form the bench onto the ground, closed her book with a light snap, and left it at her seat. The House Elves would take care of that.
[break][break]
Then, the part veela extended her arms and engulfed the muggleborn in a tight hug. "Welcome, welcome Sam!" She gushed excitedly, her usual prim tone dropped in the absence of her prefect responsibilities. "Let me show you ze way to my 'ome!" Nicolette had been home for a few days, but her French accent was beginning to become more prominent as she spoke.
[break][break]
With that final statement, she seized Samantha by their hand and tugged them along a mossy cobblestone footpath towards the entrance, a plain oak door framed by lovingly tended rose vines.

✿Samantha would do her best to push herself up off the ground...though honestly happy to fall face first, even if it bent her glasses up a bit. When she heard the laugh of Nicolette...should couldn't help but blush as Samantha made quick work of bending her glasses back into the right shape and sliding them back onto her face...at least her backpack and guitar were safe. Though she wasn't expected what stood before her... Not the crimson robe that off set Nicolette's eyes, nor the massive mansion that she called home. Samantha would rub her face gently as she stood up, a second thing she could thank the face plant for was a great way to cover up her blushing face. It was her first time using a portkey...and hopefully she'd only do it one more time in her life. Samantha would give a small chuckle before saying, "I'll certainly remember that..but I'll be honest I'll rather stick to flying...much safer in my opinion."Samantha certainly wasn't expecting the tight hug from the prefect...she seemed so much more...energetic now that the two weren't at school, her voice had more energy and warmth to it now...it was clear that her french accent was coming back. Samantha would return the hug rather gingerly before smiling and saying, "Sure Niccy, lead the way!"Though honestly Samantha didn't have much choice...as Nicolette almost seized her hand in a vice grip and drug her along the mossy cobblestone footpath, towards the plain oak door...just what was going to be beyond it? Either way..this was a brand new world for Samantha. |

Nicolette made a face at yet another nickname Sam apparently had in store to her. "Don't call me zat." She complained wearily, shaking her head. Then, her attentions returned to the task at hand: introducing her friend to her home. The oak door was thrust open and Nicolette stepped inside, tugging Sam gently along with her.
[break][break]
There was no doubt to anyone that the Delacour mansion was wealthy. The building itself was elegant, very roomy, with the high ceilings and the broad floors that they just don't make anymore. A well-groomed young House Elf with a high perky ears greeted the Ravenclaws in the enormous entry hall with a low sweeping bow.
[break][break]
"Welcome to Chateau Delacour, Mademoiselles."
[break][break]
"Merci, Poly." Nicolette replied. "Do you know where papa is?"
[break][break]
The House Elf named Poly nodded and led the girls to a library, its walls lined with old books in leather bindings, similar to the leather-cushioned chairs around the enormous old dogfoot table in the room's center. Seated comfortably upon one of the chairs was Monsieur Enzo Delacour.
[break][break]
He was tall, pale as a statue. Sable hair fell in tousled curls to his shoulders. He had the body expected from a half veela. Muscle, but not too much of it, good set of shoulders, and the pale skin wasn't darkened anywhere by hair. The man smiled, bright enough for a toothpaste commercial, and then raised a hand in greeting.
[break][break]
"Bonjour papa! C'est Samantha Albright!" Nicolette introduced excitedly, beckoning her friend to come closer.

✿It seemed that this would be another nickname that Nicolette would frown upon...little did her friend know that Samantha came prepared this time around....with a list of one thousand way to give her a nickname. Samantha would simply chuckle at the frown before saying, "Okay, I'll take that one off the list Nicky."However, it didn't take long for Samantha's comfort levels to drop yet again as the two walked inside Nicolette's house...the ceilings....were unbelieveable...the whole house was unbelieved...and the creature that came to greet the two...well...it bowed to her. Samantha would nod her head toward the creature as she was welcomed to the house. "Um...t..thank you kindly..."Samantha would follow along again, the two being led to a rather large library. Samantha was only surrouned by this many books at school only...and the fact that they were being lead to Nicolette's father made it even worse...a bit of panicked fear was apparent on Samantha's face...she had this fear around many parents...after all..her parents were horrible...she always had a slight fear that parents would hate her when she met them. So far the man smiled at the two...but still there wasn't much for her to go off of. Samantha would take a few shaky steps forward as she would wave, "Um...N...Nice to meet you mister Delacour...I hope your holiday has been nice...I...I'm Samantha, but you can call me Sam." |
