Ginny looked up at him and opened her mouth. She almost said she wanted to meet his brother, but she remembered Kyllie, and held the little girl tighter. She nodded at Xaver.

"Just, give him hell for me, ok?" She asked, quietly, closing her eyes and hugging Kyllie tighter.

[Xaver]

Xaver nodded gravely, pausing for a moment. He focused upon something, then opened his eyes again, his concentration never lost. He kneeled down and lovingly kissed Kylie on the forehead, and Ginny on the lips, then stood again. He watched the two people he most deeply cared for, then simply disappeared with a sharp, low crack.

Kylie turned her head slightly and looked up at Ginny.
"What does that mean?" she asked.

[Ginny Weasly]

"What does what mean, Kyllie?" She asked, looking at her softly. She was worried about Xaver, but kept it from her eyes, and smiled at Kyllie.


(gotta go. BBL)

[Xaver]

" 'Aver looks so angry.. but he thinks so sad.." She sighed. "Brother is a very confusing boy-person."
Kylie leaned down and picked up her fallen mitten, slipping it back on, touching her sore lip. Momentarily forgetting it, she looked up at her.
"You have any candy, Lady Ginny?"

[Ginny Weasly]

"I think, Kyllie, it means he's worried." She said, and then smiled as the little girl asked for candy.

"I think so..." She said, pulling a pouch off her waist and opening it. She held it out towards Kyllie.


(My internet shut off again. Don't know when I'll be able to get on at home.)

[Xaver]

"I don't know... he worries me lots... and when he and Xences fight.. Lady Ginny, they fight really bad..."
Kylie's forlorn expression lit up when she saw the bag and though her movements were timid, she put a mittened hand in the bag. Searching for candy, she glanced up at Ginny, raising one of her small eyebrows.
"Brother really likes you. I can tell. Do yous like my brother?"
Kylie stuck out her tongue slightly in concenteation, as she finally found a peice of candy.

[Ginny Weasly]

"Yes, Kyllie. I really like your brother. And, I'm worried too. But, all we can do is wait, okay?" She said, smiling at Kyllie.

[Xaver]

"Okay."
She nodded.
"I'm glad you likes him. Why do you?"
She sat, stuffing her mouth with the peculiar candy, gazing up at Ginny with innocent eyes, and a gentle smile.
"He's such a silly boy."
She grinned playfully, and a little protectively. Xaver had been the only one she'd ever had all her life, and it was only natural for her to be protective. She was still distressed, and worried, just as well.
Suddenly she squirmed, fishing out two necklaces from beneath her puffy coat, taking them off and letting them rest at the palm of her hand.

The necklaces were identical. Black, pure gold wings encased a sphere of a diamond, as big as the end of one's thumb. In the center of the spheres, two orbs danced in each, one with an X, the other with a K, identical in both necklaces, swimming around small, minute black satin feathers.

"Xaver used to wear this one, and I always this one. Whenever his mood would change, I could know because it showed in the diamond, even though we were so far apart a lot of the time. He then couldn't wear his anymore, because of the gold. After he and Xences had a fight a long time ago, he never touches gold. I don't know why.."
The one with the X, glowed a deep, hot red. The one with the K, glowed blue.
"It shows both our emotions. Anyways, Xaver made them, and I always thought they were pretty. Here, you have this one."
She slipped one into Ginny's hand, then put hers back on.
" 'Aver would want you to have it. I want you to have it."
She gazed at the stone, in thought.."

[Ginny Weasly]

Ginny looked at the necklace, then looked up at Kyllie. Still holding the necklace in her hand, she hugged Kyllie again.

"You ask why I like him. To tell you the truth, I can't settle on one good answer to that. It's a hard question." She said, softly.

[Xaver]

Kylie hugged Ginny back, tightly, the warmly pulsating pendant of her necklace clutched in her small hand. When she and Ginny finally broke apart, she glanced at it again, and the orb within, with an X over it, had suddenly become an icy turquoise, and that emotion being the strongest, both necklaces became cold. Kylie frowned slightly at it, then smiled up at Ginny.
"How come?" she asked innocently.
She opened the wrapper of another candy and popped into her mouth, then offered one to Ginny with a sticky hand.. or mitten, anyway.

[Ginny Weasly]

"How come it's a hard question?" She said. She thought about it, opening her hand and starring at the now cold necklace. She was silent for a moment.

"Because...over time, reasons for loving someone, or hating them, or having any emotion for another can and will change. Sometimes, you can hate someone for many reasons, but someday, you might find something you like about that person. Then a few days later, you find something else, until one day, the reasons for hating them seem so small." She looked up and laughed, slightly.

She looked at the candy, "No you have it."

[Xaver]

Kylie followed Ginny's words with interested ears. Her mind might have been young, but she understood every word, and could to relate. When Ginny finished and laughed, Kyle nodded and giggled softly, finishing the candy in her mouth.
"Oh, okay. Thanks!" she said, grinning.
She plopped the candy into her mouth with a delighted smile, then raised the necklace again and looked into it. While her, Kylie's orb within the two necklaces, remained a quiet and steady baby blue, Xaver's continued to change rapidly from blues, to reds, then finally, it settled on a bright yellowish red, unchanging from that moment. Kylie's eyes grew wide and he chewed her bottom lip.

[Ginny Weasly]

"Kyllie...."Ginny said, looking from Kylie to the necklace then back to Kyllie, "What does yellow mean?" She asked, noticing how Kylie was reacting.

[Xaver]

Kylie let out a small cry and buried her face again into Ginny's shoulder.
"I don't know! I've never seen yellows before. Xaver's usual colors are greens and blues.. sometimes golds, but never yellows.. I don't like that.. my necklace is cold-"
Suddenly the necklaces warmed up to a comfortable heat, and the colors of the orb shifted to a soothed gold, just as there was a soft snap behind them. Xaver appeared, his expressions remote and his emotions concealed. He didn't move, just stared at them both with a relieved, loving lopsided smile.

[Ginny Weasly]

Ginny held Kylie and turned her head slightly to look at him. She was so relieved, she almost lost her breath. She looked at him, then hugged Kylie tighter, putting her chin ontop of Kylie's head.
