Emma looked up hearing a familiar voice and groaned inwardly, turning her head away to hide her puffy eyes. "Just leave me alone, Matthew. Please. Now's not a good time," she sniffed. "Besides, there's been too much going on at Abi's lately. I don't know what but I doubt I'd be able to slip in and out of there unnoticed." |

[size=1]"Perhaps you should go try it out rather than just doubting it," Matthew replied. He sat there in silence for a moment before asking, "What's wrong?", his voice actually sounding concern. After all, he did are very much for Emma and didn't want to see her hurt.[/size] |

Emma shrugged at Matthew's suggestion, realising that he was right and she would no doubt have to chance it, even if it just meant scoping out where the potion was being kept. 'What's wrong?' Hearing the genuine concern in his voice, Emma froze and turned slightly, fixing him with a wary look, her eyes still red. "It's... nothing, really." She bit her lip, unsure whether or not to tell hiim the truth. What reason did she have to trust him after the hell he'd put her through? However, something about the tone of his voice, made her think of the Matthew that once was, back at Hogwarts and before he left on that mission to France. Against her better judgement, she heard herself mutter, "It's Kevin... I just found out something he forgot to mention, is all." |

[size=1]"Something he forgot to mention? What exactly was that?" Matthew asked with the same concerned tone, his curiosity getting the better of him. And he couldn't help but feel a tiny inkling of hope, considering how upset whatever it was got Emma. He hated to see her hurt but maybe…if Kevin messed up badly enough…[/size] |

She rubbed her eyes furiously again as another couple of tears fell, hating that she was crying in front of Matthew, showing weakness. "He forgot to mention having a son..." she whispered, staring blankly in front of her, leaving the tears to fall silently. "We've always been honest with one another... why wouldn't he tell me something like this? I would have understood... but then. I saw his son. He had to have been with the mother after Julie died even though he told me, there'd been no one but me since her..." she let the sentance hang. |

[size=1]"You mean he has a son, and he lied about it? How awful…" Matthew trailed off and wrapped an arm around Emma's shoulder. "I'm sorry to hear that," he said sincerely. True, he wasn't sorry to hear that Kevin messed up, but he didn't like the effect on Emma.[/size] |

Emma nodded at Matthew's question and didn't resit as Matthew wrapped a arm around her, surprised to feel herself shiver somewhat as he did so. Taking it to just be a shiver from the cold, she found herself lean in closer to him, reminded of the old days. "I just don't know what to think. I mean, I found out from the mother of his child... I guess I don't really know a great deal about his past," she sniffed. "But... do I confront him about it? What do I do?" |

[size=1]Matthew couldn't help but smile as Emma leaned into him. "Honestly…I'd talk to him about it, but if he hasn't been honest with you before, he'll probably try to lie about it. Maybe you should try talking to the mother," he suggested, absentmindedly stroking her arm lightly.[/size] |

Emma's thoughts became more confused as she listened to Matthew's words. Was Kevin liekly to lie about this? Should she confront Bridgette? She really hadn't a clue. She leant against Matthew, she felt herself relaxing somewhat, after all, he was familiar to her, and if she closed her eyes... and concentrated on the soothing movement of his hand stroking her arm, she could almost belive that they were back at in the Gryffindor or HQ common room, sat snuggled up in front of the fire like old times. Eyes somewhat hazy and lost to her thoughts, she found herself slowly tilting her head upward towards Matthew's leaning in towards him and before she knew it of could stop herself, she found her lips meeting his and her eyes fluttering closed. |

[size=1]Matthew was surprised but pleased to find Emma kissing him…without the aid of any bonding potion. He kissed her back, deepening the kiss, and wrapping his other arm around her, although some small part of his mind knew it was all too good to be true.[/size] |

Emma sighed happily as Matthew reacted to the kiss, deepening it and pulling her closer and she felt herself willingly lean into the kiss. Just like old times... She broke away slightly, to catch her breath and opening her eyes looked across at Matthew, realisation at what she had just done, suddenly dawning on her. She leant back away from his embrace, hurriedly standing and backing up a further few steps, her hand instantly going to her lips in disbelief. This wasn't the old Matthew, nor was this her husband. What had she done. She stared across at Matthew, starting to feel the shock of what she had just done, set in. "I.. I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry... I've got to go." Without a backwards glance, she took off back up the path to HQ feeling the tears from earlier starting to fall afresh. |

[size=1]Forest shifted, he finally relaxed after he got there, it was a five hour travel from his home there and he had underestimated it. He was of course, merely five. Yet his intelligence was peaked to at least an eight year olds. His looks were even aged, and he quite liked that. He sat down on a boulder. It had taken him a while to get out of the site of his maid, he held his head in his hands. This place was real, the place his mother hadn't liked. He liked making his father he didn't remember her, he liked making his father feel better. Skid relaxed and closed his eyes. [/size] |

[size=1]Anna decided to venture out to the lake, looking down, hoping not to fall. She looked up for a moment to see a child, seven at the most in age. She walked over and smiled, "Hello little one, are you lost?" She asked, sitting down a little bit away from him. [/size] |

[size=1]Skid looked at the lady confused, he had thought that the place his mother had dreaded was her family's home, but this lady didn't look like family. "Not as much lost as searching." He said, it wasn't that much over what a normal five year old would say. His brain was whizing, trying to figure out if he knew her. [/size] |

[size=1]Anna took in that piece of information and turned to the lake, he was smarter than she'd thought. She liked that, "Ah, searching for something... I'm Anna." She dropped that, not adding her surname, no one really cared, it wasn't like hers held any significance. [/size] |

[size=1]He paused, studying her for a moment. She didn't look familiar at all; long blond hair, tall, angled. That wasn't like either side of his family. "It's nice meeting you Anna, I'm Forest." He noticed her missing piece and didn't feel like mentioning his own lastname. He leaned back on his palms, shaking his hair into the right position. [/size] |

[size=1]Anna laughed, he was so grownup like, he shook his head and she continued her grin. "Pleasure, So Forest, besides searching, what else do you like to do?" She asked him, not certain that 'like' was the right word for that moment. She wondered how a child of his age- six; she was guessing, had even gotten there. [/size] |

[size=1]'Pleasure' Forest just had to roll his eyes. He smiled back though, using his hand to rake back his hair from his eyes. "I like to do everything and anything. But don't ask me if I read a dictionary, because the answer is no." He said the last part a little annoyed. He let his tongue drift over the bottom of his teeth, sliding over his fangs easily. [/size] |

[size=1]Anna laughed and raked back her hair, she was a little afraid that he was smarter than her. "Why in Merlins name would I ask if you read a dictionary? How old are you anyways?" She raised an eyebrow questioningly. [/size] |

[size=1]Forest shrugged, "I'm five, nearly six if you care." He put up his hands defensively, "But I wouldn't dare touch me if I were you. My father'd hurt you." He said, and stood up. "I really like you Anna, and it was great meeting you, but I'm afraid I must go..." He said, and ran away. [/size] |
