While thinking of a way to contact fellow students, Alphonse recalled a red haired girl, 5 years his junior, passed him a letter a few weeks ago prior to the Christmas break while they were still in school. Alphonse remembered he had finished reading the letter and placed in somewhere in his bag, and was waiting for a chance to get back to the girl when he was ordered to remain behind.
"Too much things had happened since..." Alphonse muttered under his breath and he ransacked his bag which had been left untouched ever since he came home. He spotted the letter and quickly opened it. It was the same letter he read... a letter asking for a date once the winter holiday was over...
Alphonse smacked himself hard in his head. How could he had forgotten all about that? The fellow Ravenclaws in his cabin on Hogwarts Express were teasing him throughout the journey back home.
"Alaina..."
The red haired girl caught his attention way back when she was first sorted in Ravenclaw. Though skinny, she was fiesty and made into the Quidditch team as a chaser.
Her contact number was written on the letter. Picking up the courage, Alphonse proceeded to dial the number. A woman answered the phone.
"Can I speak to Alaina if she is around? I'm Alphonse Warrington." Alphonse asked politely. He had no idea if she was at home or at Hogwarts.
"Hold on...," came the reply, "Alaina... it's for you, from some Warrington!"
Alphonse waited patiently.
