Who do you think I am?...He is important to me, so are you. ---TBD

Well, oddly enough Tristan was able to come over. To hang out and to ONLY hang out as I have been told multiple times. Trying to make myself feel good I pulled on my jeans and tank top with a button up red shirt and boots as I pulled my hair into a side ponytail and waited for Tristan to show up. We were going to be hanging out in the barn. My mum told me to please make sure we're not doing anything that she would have to go to court for if Dad were to find us.

I went down the stairs after I got ready, saw Ros and smiled to her as she knew Tristan was coming over. Well, I am nervous about him coming over but it's just Tristan. He helps me be myself and it just feels weird now knowing that I might like him. Apparently that's what dad is worried about. " He should be here soon..." I told my sister as I walked into the kitchen and took a glass and filled it up. Walking over to the table, " Ros....can I talk to you before he gets here?"

I was visiting Mum and Dad before leaving for my trip to Egypt to visit my other mum.  I was able to talk about the trip with Sidney, Seth, and Mum... but even after the handful of years Mum had been awake from her coma, Dad hated talking about it.  It was frustrating, but I never pushed the issue like Seth did.  It was best to stay on Dad's good side.  I had also come over because I knew that Sidney had gotten a boy through the screening process and Mum was worried about if Seth or Dad got back from the backyard Quidditch game they played with other guys who never quite gotten out of the whole boyish phase.  

I had been going through some jewelry that Mum set out on the table for me to borrow for my trip and looked up at Sidney, a smile on my face.  "You look cute," I said, trying to hide the little bit of Weasley that was threatening to escape.  I did not want to upset Sidney by insuating anything, but her and Tristan would be so cute together as a couple.  I just did not want to imply anything.  I was merely making a statement.  I put down the necklaces I was comparing and looked at Sid when she said she wanted to talk.  

I furrowed my brow.  "What type of talk?  Do I need to get ice cream...?  Or are we good?" I asked, knowing that she probably would not want to get herself into a mess before Tristan showed up.

Smiling I shook my head, " No ice cream needed....and thanks. " I said smiling while I bit my lip. I did want to look cute for him. well, not for him for me. Merlin knows what I would be told if Dad sees what I'm wearing. I sat down beside her, " How on earth did you get away with seeing boys..." I needed to know. " I am getting tired of every boy in this place scaring them off.

I laughed and shook my head.  "Well, have you ever seen me bring the boys here?" I asked, smirking.  "I mean, besides Able and Cam... we were all just mates in schooland Mum made sure that Dad knew that.  Seth already does -- he saw that at school."  They never needed to know I fancied Able.  "Any of my boyfriends, well, I just stayed away from home with little excuses."

I sighed.  "Granted, if I had gotten caught, I would have been grounded for life," I assured Sidney.  I should not be telling my little sister how to sneak around.  I should be a good example.

Grinning, " So what you're telling me I need to not have Tristan.....come here?" I asked. Did I really want to admit that I had feelings for him. We didn't really know how we felt, " Well, we're going for a ride and then coming home and doing homework. " I explained, feeling the heat rise to my face. " I just don't want Tristan to be scared off...he has been shut in after what happened to his brother when he was little..." I explained, I felt really bad that I had such a large family and Tristan lost his brother. " I just want them to not scare him off.....I guess mum asked you to come over?"

I smiled and chuckled.  "My cover's blown, isn't it?" I asked.  "Really, she just wanted me to make sure Dad and Seth didn't kill Tristan if they came over and you two were by yourselves."  I sighed and nodded at Sidney.  "Look, I doubt he'll be entirely scared off.  If it's just a friendship thing, you two will be fine.  ...and if there's something more there, then he does have to get used to our crazy family at one point.  He already knows all the cousins from school, so it's just our parents.  You're introducing him to the adults in our family slowly -- which is the best way to do it."  I hoped that I was at least being helpful to her.  I know that sometimes our family makes things so difficult when it came to anything and everything -- especially dating.

I can go for a ride with Sid, I mean it was just a ride with her. It's not as if I expected anything to happen. I smiled to my reflection as I looked at my reflection in the mirror. Wearing jeans and my green button up shirt as I messed up my hair a bit as I headed over to Sidney's. I was wondering who I was going to meet when I was there. From what she's told me I have a lot to meet. Her uncles are the ones she warned me about with the pranks. Which wouldn't be so bad. I am however terrified of Mr. Weasley. I ended up getting there and knocking on the door as I waited for someone to answer.

Grinning, " Yeah, I understand.....Thanks. " I said to her, as I was anticipating a knock any minute. " Yes and two of those people include my older brother and my dad...and my uncles....and my grandfather...." I said as I started to panic again and then I heard the knock on the door. I whipped around from the table to the door. " I can do this...." I stood up, " What do I do?" I asked her as I was suddenly really nervous.

I heard the knock and smirked.  If this was Seth and a date, I would so go embarrass him right now.  But since it was Sidney, I would behave myself.  I stood up and went to her.  I straightened her top slightly and smiled at her, keeping my hands on her shoulders.  "Deep breath," I instructed her.  "You go answer the door, you act normal; you got this.  Just be yourself."  I gave her a quick hug and then let go of her.

"Now go or he'll think he's at the wrong house or something," I said to her, trying to joke to lighten it up for her.

I did as I was instructed, deep breath. It's just Tristan we hang out all the time...we can handle going for a ride and essentially avoiding my father and brother. It's actually surprising that the other males in the family haven't shown up oddly to see who Tristan is. " Be myself." I repeated as I looked to my sister, " Okay...running to the door, pulling the door open there stood Tristan. " Hey..c'mon in."

I smiled at my little sister and watched her go to the door.  My work here was done -- well, with her anyways.  I would stay behind the scenes and just make sure Dad or Seth did not show up and ruin anything for her.

She looks so beautiful. I walked in as she closed the door behind me as I took off my shoes. " How are you?" I asked her as we walked in. I saw her sister in the kitchen. " Hey Ros." I smiled, " How are you?"

I had to peer around the corner to see how Tristan had grown up.  I had only seen him when he was young... and my sister did well for herself.  That was for sure.  I grinned at him.  "I'm good," I said to him.  "You best be up for a long day... it sounds like Sid's got quite a day planned."

Grinning as we walked in the house. " Sure do. " I agreed with Ros, " Going for a ride to start...picnic maybe?" I said as I looked to Tristan as he nodded at me. " Let's get to it then." I led him down the hall, peeking back to Ros, " Thanks for keeping dad and Seth busy." I knew mum asked her to be here just in case she didn't get home. They are ridiculous when it comes to me, " So, I have Harley and Spartan ready to go." I said as I adjusted the saddle. I hoped we would get everything ready before Dad got home. Merlin knows Ros is awesome but she can only distract dad so long as I had the picnic already just have to add it the saddle bag.

I winked at Sidney and smiled at them as they got around to go for a ride.  I looked at the clock and knew that Dad would be getting home in an hour or so, so I hoped that it would give them plenty head start... adn enough time for me to think of a good ruse of distracting him.
