"Hey Evangeline," said Emily with a smile. "How has the registry department been treating you," she asked.

"Well, you know, the usual. So much paperwork to do, and it's just me working," said Evangeline. "I really wish that I could find someone to help me in there, because sometimes I have to stay there working almost all night to get everything finished for that day, then turn around and be there early the next morning."

"Wow... that doesn't sound like much fun," Angelique said. She held out her hand. "It's nice to meet you, by the way. Where did you say you worked?"

"Oh," Cassidy said. "Evangeline works in the werewolf registry at the Ministry of Magic. She runs the whole department pretty much by herself. Angelique, I meant to ask you earlier, how is Wesley doing? We were both sort of... acquaintances, I guess, back in high school."

Angelique shrugged. "I guess he's doing OK. I don't think he's really allowed himself to process what happened to his daughter... he's too worried about the other one. She's a strange little thing... kind of uncanny. She looks at you like she can see right through you."

"Oh," Cassidy said. "Well, I hope they're both OK. Can you tell him that if he needs a friend or anything, he can contact us? It really was quite a shock to hear that he was dead... and another one to find out he wasn't. Do you know if he's coming back to the Department of Mysteries?"

Angelique shook her head. "No, I don't think so," she said. "He said that after everything that happened, he has some bad memories of the place. I think he's going to try for a teaching job so he can be near Natalie."

"I feel bad for Wes," said Evangeline. "I hated that happened to his older daughter, but I can't blame him for not wanting to go back to the Department of Mysteries. And that's a good thing that he wants to be closer to Natalie," she said.

"Well, I can tell him you were thinking about him." Angelique said. "He's staying with his brother in law, Alastor Domino, and his fiancee right now. They offered to let me stay, too, but I'm more used to being on my own. Besides, I think it was getting crowded enough over there. But I am stopping over to visit him later."

"Yes, please tell him we were asking about him," Cassidy said. "And tell us we're so sorry about his daughter. That is, if he even remembers me... I know I'm not exactly the most memorable person in the world..."

"Now, don't talk like that!" Angelique said, putting her hand on Cassidy's shoulder. "Never put yourself down like that. You should have more confidence in yourself. You're a lovely girl... you're sweet and caring, and whether you know it or not, you've got a great pair of eyes. Why, once a guy gets a good look into those blue eyes of yours, I seriously doubt he's going to forget you any time soon."

Cassidy blushed. "It's nice of you to say that," she said, looking down at her shoes. She knew full well that of the four of them, she was the plainest of the bunch. "But really, you... you're so pretty you could have been in muggle movies. All three of you could. I'm just... me. It's OK, though. I'm used to it. I'm not really the type who wants to call attention to herself, anyway. But you three... You're all pretty enough to draw attention just by walking into a room."

Angelique shook her head. "You know, looking the way I do is really more of a curse. I get attention everywhere I go, most of it completely unwanted. Do you know that I had been in town only one day, and no fewer than three guys had hit on me? Well, I guess Christian didn't really hit on me so much... but the other two did. I walk into a bar and the slimiest, ugliest, fattest guys there all start leering at me. It's disgusting. But you, Cassidy, you're better off. You are very pretty, but some guys might pass you over... but the ones that don't... well, they're the keepers. Because they're going to look closely enough that they'll realize that you're the most beautiful girl they've ever seen. That's the guy you want to be with."

Cassidy blushed again and took a sip of her drink. Tyler had said she was pretty. He was the first guy ever to say that to her. Did that mean....? She blushed again, thinking about it. "Thank you," she said softly.

Isabella walked into the Three Broomsticks. After stealing the necklace from Wesley and giving it to Charles, she was now having serious misgivings. Now, more than ever, she was convinced that she had made a huge mistake. She should not have allowed that necklace to go back to Voldemort. If he wanted it as badly as Charles said he did, then the last thing she should have done was give it to him, even if it was to save her baby. She was feeling shaky and alone, and in desperate need for a drink. She hadn't had a drink since her horrible drinking binge after her breakup with Voltaire, but she needed one now. She didn't even notice anyone else around her as she walked over and ordered a firewhiskey. When the bartender handed her the glass, she stared down into it, debating with herself whether she really wanted to drink it.

Emily smiled at Cassidy. "Angelique is right Cassidy. You could probably get just about any man you wanted to," she said with a wink. Emily noticed Isabella came in and she slid down a few seats. "Hey Isa," said Emily. "How is everything?"

Isabella looked up and saw Emily next to her. She sighed and put her glass down on the counter without taking a drink. "Oh, Emily," she said softly. "Things are... not going well. I'm feeling incredibly stressed about the baby, and now Voltaire is apparently cheating on me with his ex, and I think I've done something terrible..." She covered her face with her hands. "Everything is such a mess..."

Emily frowned and put a hand on Isabella's shoulder. "Voltaire is just not, himself," said Emily. "You know that in his right state he would never cheat on you. But, what do you think that is so terrible?"

Isabella sighed. "I feel like I drove him away... the things I said... but I don't know. I need to get Conor back... once I have my son, hopefully, everything will fall into place. I've made progress... I hope to get him back soon. But to get him back..." she paused and looked over at the other women that Emily had been talking to. One of them was Wesley's sister, Angelique. "I did something I shouldn't have. I betrayed a friend... and I used another. I... I can't talk about it..."

Angelique saw Isabella and remembered her from Hogwarts. "Oh, hi, do you remember me? Angelique St. Clare? Judging by the look on your face, you still haven't got your baby back. Is there anything we can do?"
