"Maybe," She pulled her bloomers on and scooped up her chemise to pull on next, "Although I'll hardly remember to ask by then. If there's even a going back to Hogwarts..." Her mood suddenly shifted. What if they didn't go back? What if magic never existed in Hogsmeade again? Likely they would move - as it worked perfectly fine here at the Sanditon - but things would be incredibly different. She wasn't ready for that.

With her chemise scrunched against her chest, she turned to her friend and asked anxiously, "Lee, what if they don't fix it? What if it's always like this? What will we do?" She couldn't debut. Not yet! She still had two more years of schooling! Two more years to figure out how to avoid marriage and still be able to live a full, happy life that satisfied herself and her family.
