Don't get it twisted. ;)
Avery slipped out of his bed clothes and into his robe, a blank expression on his face. After everything that happened yesterday, he was just tired, and no amount of sleep could rest him. Sighing, he made his way to the cafeteria, grabbing his food and going to sit with the other Slytherins. It was very clear that one member of the table was missing, Robert, but Avery tried not to think about that much as his owl came flying in. He had a package from his step-mother, who he had no intentions of befriending. Really, he didn't know why the lady even bothered, Avery didn't like her, so she shouldn't like him either. Oh well, he opened the gift anyways, and was slightly surprised to see such a bright pink wrapping paper. Was that lady trying to embarrass him? He ripped the pink of the package before anyone could really see it and get the wrong idea, and pulled out a little book. From first glance, it looked empty. But the more he studied it, the clearer the words became. It was his mother's old journal! She may have treated him badly, but Avery still cherished the gift. Still the fact that it came from his step-mother took away from the novelty of it. Whatever, he put his things away and went back to eating.
