Being sorted into Slytherin after a bit; discussion over Hufflepuff/Slytherin

"Let''s see... ambition, in spades. Self-preserving... Some cunning... I can see you'd do well in Slytherin..." The hat said in the back of her head. She Looked up in the dark, almost hoping to see someone there in the dark. "Yet, Hufflepuff might bring out the best in you." He murmured as if talking to himself and completely ignoring Gwendolyn. Gwen shifted nervously in her seat. She didn't want to say it, but her heart completely sank when the hat didn't call out Slytherin right away. "Hmmm that doesn't make you happy does it. Well... then..."

"SLYTHERIN!" The hat called out, and with a grin of triumph, Gwendolyn tore off the hat, handed it back to Professor McGonagall and ran off like a shot to toward the Slytherin table before the hat had a chance to change its mind.

Finding out with Izzie that Damien was attacked by Greyback

"Miss Montgomery?" Professor Flitwick called out to Gwendolyn as she sat in her seat next to one of her friends, quietly scribbling a note to her on her parchment. They'd been using it to chat through most of the class, and hadn't even really noticed as Professor Flitwick walked toward the back of the classroom. Startled, she looked up, a blush of having been caught quickly tinting her cheeks.

"Yes, professor?" She asked looking around and then over her shoulder, her voice a little squeaky as she tried not to sound too guilty.

"Come here, dear. Headmaster Dumbledore would like to have a word with you." The professor said in his higher voice as he waived her over. Sliding off her chair, Gwendolyn hurried over to the door where Professor Flitwick stood next to the Head Girl.

"Yes sir." She said softly, more than a little embarrassed to be called out by the headmaster. It didn't help that the whole class was staring at her as well. Ducking out of the door, Gwendolyn followed the girl, trying to run every last possible infraction she'd done through her mind. Maybe someone had actually seen her in the Astronomy tower? But then it would be Professor Slughorn, wouldn't it? OWLs were still a few months away, so it couldn't be that. The Head Girl said nothing as they walked, she looked a bit nervous and Gwen was far too busy trying to figure out what she'd done wrong to be as bubbly and chatty as she usually was when with other students.

When they finally arrived at the office a few minutes later, Gwen waited for the password to bes spoken and the door to open. Biting her lower lip, she looked up at the large gargoyles outside the door and shivered a little. They were so ugly. "Go on, the headmaster's waiting for you." She said to Gwen who nodded and walked forward, slowly dreading what she would find. Walking up the few steps into the office itself, Gwendolyn found herself looking around in awe. It was massive! Paintings lived the walls of the circular room, interspersed with shelves and what looked like hundreds of books. It was surprisingly airy, probably due in part to the large windows.

"Have a seat, Miss Montgomery" It was only when she heard the words that Gwen blushed and glanced toward the centre, noticing that Izzie was already there. Hurrying across the wooden floor, Gwendolyn took a seat next to her sister and blushed, apologising. Dumbledore waived it off and paused as if he was weighing up his words. "My dears, it grieves me to tell you that there has been an incident." Gwen's hand shot out for her sister's. "Your little brother, Damien, I believe, was attacked by a werewolf" Gwen gasped out loud, and Izzie started to whimper. "and although he was rushed to St. Mungo's, I'm afraid the Healers were unable to save him" Gwendolyn hear herself gasp again and gripped her sister's hand again. The Headmaster had paused to give them a moment, but tears were running down her cheeks and she was looking at her younger sister.

Sitting in the common room with Adrian, curled up on the sofa

Closing her eyes, Gwendolyn chewed on her lower lip as she leaned up against Adrian. His arm wrapped firmly around her waist as he held her close, fingers sliding along her body beneath the throw that was slung over them. She could feel the warmth of the Slytherin common room fire on her face as she was curled up against Adrian. They'd been sat there for a while already, but Gwendolyn couldn't bring herself to move, not when it felt so good to be with him.

Opening her eyes, Gwendolyn tilted her head back to look at him and smiled. He smiled back and she gasped as his fingers found their way beneath her knickers. When he shushed her, she nodded, understanding that she wasn't supposed to make any noise, and for a moment she glanced around the common room at the other students, who sat studying, or practising being completely none the wiser.

Standing in front of the grave of Robert Wilkes

"Hi daddy." Gwen said softly as she crouched down to lay flowers on the grave. It was a bouquet of daisies which she always brought to his gravesite, Izzie had sunflowers and William always brought irises. She glanced up briefly at Izzie and Will who were standing next to her and smiled when Izzie rested her hand on her shoulder. Will had already had his turn, so now it was her chance to have a chat. "Happy Christmas." She added, looking at the large angel carrying the Wilkes crest. It was their family plot, with the motto inscribed at the angels feet and her grandparents names next to her fathers. The rest of their family was buried inches away stretching back generations.

"I made it in to Slytherin." She said, smiling softly as her eyes scanned the inscription. Reaching out, Gwendolyn ran her fingertips across it.
Robert Wilkes
Beloved father, husband and son
Strong. Pure. True
3 February 1947 - 16 December, 1980
"I'm doing really well in class too, daddy. Charms is great, and so's Potions. I don't like Herbology, but I promise to try better. I - " She stopped and looked down at her hands, now clutched in front of her. It wasn't fair that he wasn't there, that she didn't know him like Will did. "Miss you." Shaking her head, Gwen stood back up and moved to wrap her arms around her older brother, resting her head against his chest as Izzie moved to lay down her flowers.

Being in her mother's wedding at the age of nine

"Stop fidgeting, Gwendolyn. You're nine-years-old, time to act like a lady." Auntie Julie hissed at Gwendolyn as she stood at the back of the church. Gwen stopped and looked up at her aunt, nodding solemnly. Looking down then at her pink dress, Gwen wanted to smooth it out, it was getting wrinkled and she didn't want to ruin her pretty pretty dress. Looking at her sister standing next to her, Gwen pulled a face, grinning as she started to giggle.

Auntie Julie gave her another look, and Gwen smiled innocently. Looking from Izzie to big wooden doors, Gwen wondered just how many people were beyond those doors, waiting for them. Even auntie Julie had only been around since her mum and Alastair had announced their wedding, but so many new people had come around in the last few months, that it was amazing to see all of these people that she hadn't even known she'd been related to!

Finally, the music sounded and Gwendolyn gripped her basket with rose petals. She looked excitedly at her sister and her cousin Christopher who was busy playing with the pillow. The doors opened, and just as they practices so many times, they started walking forward and down the isle. Mummy was marrying Alastair today but Gwen looked lovely and everyone was going to say how pretty she looked!
