``insomnia <family/open>

"Yeah, Isaac took her to Diagon Alley a couple times, but I think she would like to hang out with us a bit." said Safira. Perhaps they could have a girl's day, where they could go to the spa or something and go shopping... She wasn't sure if Bella would be into that sort of thing though... And she would be technically be moving in with Demetri for the summer... This was starting to feel a lot more complicated. Safira would find some way to make it work.

"I think she'd like that," Bella commented, glad that Safira liked the idea as well. Plus Isaac would be busy with wedding plans, so it would be harder for him to take Vivienne places. "We could have a girl's day or something," Bella added after a bit of thought. Perhaps if she spent more time with her siblings, she would be able to spend less time with Isabelle.

"It's like you stole the words from my head," said Safira with a smile. It wasn't like money was an issue, they could all go out and get manicures so they could be in the same room and chat. Then go shopping. It would be fun. If Pansy hadn't been so off since Draco was sent to Azkaban, Safira might invite her to go along.

Bella smiled back, glad that Safira liked the idea as well. They seemed to be connecting better that night than they had in a long time. Whether it was the moonlight or both of them treading carefully, Bella couldn't be sure, but she was glad of her sister's company. "It's not like Mum will really notice, anyway," Bella replied with a shrug. They could probably take Vivienne out for days without Pansy noticing. But once she did, they would have some explaining to do.

Safira shook her head lightly in agreement. She pulled her feet up onto the bench, clasping her hands in front of her shins and laying her head on her knees. Safira allowed a yawn to escape her lips, she truly was tired, but she couldn't sleep. It was perhaps the most frustrating situation in the entire world.

"Perhaps insomnia is a family gene," Bella commented, resting her head once more on her own knees. Between the three Malfoys at Hogwarts, it seemed that none of them had been getting a lot of sleep lately. Bella couldn't exactly speak for Safira, but judging by tonight, she hadn't been sleeping well. And as for Isaac, he hardly slept at all.

"Some sort of empathy link or something; one can't be up without the others," Safira said with a yawn. "Let's just hope that Vivienne doesn't have to deal with this too." Safira lightly closed her eyes a moment, almost instantly her mental image of Demetri came before her closed eyelids, she allowed herself a small smile as she opened her eyes.
