For the next two weeks, the house by the park fell into a strange sort of rhythm. One where everyone kept their heads down and played their part, even though no one knew how much longer that could possibly last. Travel was limited, unofficial curfews were established, and visibility was kept to a minimum as, together, they waited for that last proverbial straw to break.

Alicia was nowhere to be found. After a few more days of watching Julian suffer, Rae had gotten on the phone and called up the acting mission commander for the Privy Council. It was like Gabriel had said. She had been sent deep undercover to keep watch on a trio of agents, and wouldn’t be back for the next few weeks.

Meaning that Julian was having a long recovery.

Rae felt horrible. She couldn’t remember the last time one of them had been forced to wait it out and heal just like a normal person. By the end of the first week, he was drafting up comical versions of a will. By the end of the second week, he was ready to search the globe for Alicia himself.

But there were positive steps as well. On only the fourth or fifth day, he and Tristan had buried the hatchet. It was a memory which still brought tears of laughter to Rae’s eyes.

Devon’s father had come by early in the morning, the same thing he’d done every day since he’d unintentionally buried a knife in his son’s best friend. He’d breezed through the door to find Devon, Rae, and Molly settled on a blanket in the backyard, watching with great amusement as their beloved Julian finally succumbed to the wonders and delights of conjured narcotics.

“I just don’t understand,” Julian was saying, gesticulating with grand motions he didn’t seem to notice himself, “what if you happened to be accidentally leaning against the platform? You weren’t expecting anything extraordinary, you were just leaning. Would you melt through then?”

Rae shook her head as Molly leaned forward with a serious frown.

“No, you wouldn’t. It not like you can trip into the wall and accidentally find yourself on the path to wizarding greatness. It has to be intentional.”

The others talked about these things in the hypothetical. Molly did not.

Julian nodded, his eyes as wide as saucers.

“Well what about the phone booth, then? The one that gets you down into the Ministry of Magic? What if you were walking past and simply happened to place a call?”

Devon shot Rae an exasperated grin as their friends began discussing it at great length.

“Why did you have to show him those movies?” Devon muttered, leaning over to whisper in her ear. “There was a reason I kept them from him. He’s going to obsess for weeks.”

“You can’t stifle his magic, Devon.” Rae removed his arm from her shoulder, turning back to Julian with a theatrical smile. “All he has to do is believe.”

The magic was slightly lost on her fiancé.

“Well, I’ve been to King’s Cross Station,” Devon replied with a smirk, “many times.
