Room

Chloe shoot herself in her room like usual. The room was simple a single bed a cupboard and a desk. The walls were a deep burgundy and the floor was coated with a soft black carpet. Sitting on her bed Chloe pulled the wand from her bag with the slip. Reading it again she giggled once more and laid down face-plating her pillow and spreading out on the mattress. She pulled her little cotton jacket off and threw it across the room then repeating this with her shoes and socks.

“Most things the user wishes?” She whispered to herself as she wriggled round on her bed finding the perfect position. She laughed with two short puffs of air then rubbed her eyes. With a joking tone she exclaimed “I wish I was taller” lifting the wand in the air she flicked her wrist and closed her eyes. As her eyes slowly opened a sudden electrical buzz shot through her arm and rooted through her body like the tendrils of a tree. Simultaneously a flash of light pink illuminated the room around her. Chloe’s eyelids scrunched shut, as a gasp of air escaped forcing her to grown. Falling backwards her body bounced once or twice as she hit her mattress.

With a yawn and a stretch Chloe woke up. Her eyes felt bruised and sore as the remnants of a migraine vibrated through her forehead to the base of the back of her skull. Rubbing her eyes Chloe curled up into a ball and groaned. “Hey Chloe, you awake?” Ruby nocked on the door, pushing the door open she walked in with a slow step. Sitting at the bottom of Chloe’s bed she placed a hand on her foot. Pulling her leg slightly she spoke in a whispered tone “yo Chloe what’s up?” With a guttural gurgle Chloe spoke “my head feels like shit, just leave me alone.” Ruby stood up and tiptoed out the room but after every few steps she looked back at the bundle on the bed, as she left she closed the door fully.
