The years at Hogwarts were going far too quickly for Samuel’s liking, he had spent years wishing that he was old enough to attend but now he was in his sixth year and he knew that before he knew it the end of his seventh year would be upon him and he would have to face his NEWTs. Right now he knew that he wanted to enjoy the time that he had left at Hogwarts but the truth was that things had been pretty tense ever since the Enlightened revealed magic to the world. Samuel still didn’t understand why anyone had thought that it would be a good idea to do that by using magic to kill others but it was done now and they couldn’t take it back no matter how much they might want to. Now not a day went by when Samuel wasn’t worried about his family and he knew that it was going to be that way for a long time to come. He had given up quidditch so he could be there for his family and help out with his younger siblings more and even though he knew that he had made the right decision the truth was that he still missed it. He was happy though, he had time to spend with his family and friends and that was all that he wanted right now.

That day he had some free time on his hands and Samuel had decided to head into Hogsmeade to do a little Christmas shopping. With so many people to buy for now he knew that he needed all the extra time finding the perfect presents that he could get and he had asked Savannah if she wanted to go with him. He had always loved spending time with his twin and that hadn’t changed as they got older, she was his best friend and he had noticed that she and Ryan had been getting closer lately so this was not just his chance to spend some time with his sister, it was also his chance to find out if there was anything going on there. He hadn’t said anything to either of them about it before, after all Ryan was one of his closest friends as well, and it had never been a secret that Samuel didn’t want his sister getting hurt. He had warned off some guys he knew to be bad guys in the past and he didn’t regret it one bit. He wasn’t sure whether he would ever be okay with the idea of his sister dating someone but he knew that he couldn’t expect her to be alone forever either so all he could hope for was that sooner or later she would find a good guy who would treat her the way she deserved. As Savannah finally joined him in the common room, Samuel felt a smile touch his lips. “You took your time, are you ready to go?” he asked, slipping his wand and wallet into his pockets so they could head out.

Savannah loved Christmas. It was easily her favourite holiday, and she was one of the first ones in the household who was infectious with joy at the arrival of December. Buying or making gifts for her family and friends was a hobby and a chore and she spent ages making shopping lists to check twice, and chuckling to herself when she said the phrase aloud, to make sure everyone had a gift to open and had debated making custom gift tags for the gifts this year instead of the ones she had to buy. Then there was the Yule Ball this year and in addition to going, she was actually going with a date. Ryan had asked her and she’d been immediately flooded by butterflies in her stomach at the thought of them going together, of him seeing her in a pretty dress she picked out. She was running out of time to decide on a dress and had went separately with Ness and then her mum and had made plans with them both to go together to get both advice and finally decide on a dress before it was the day of and she had nothing to wear. While they were out she was sure more shopping would be done, and she’d check off a few more names on her list. Especially for her twinny and best friend Samuel. Being twins every memory she had consisted of him, and it was no surprise that he was easily her best friend. Regardless of what they were doing she felt at ease being around him and some of the stresses built up would melt away. Last year she’d taken full advantage of the calming affect being around her twin afforded her during studying for their OWLS and liked to think he was the result of her good results on the exams. Now that the world was chaos, well, she found checking in with her family a daily thing, and thought Samuel was doing the protective big brother thing and checking in on her more than usual, but given they were in the same house it might just be the tighter rules restricting their movements and keeping them in the same spaces.

Today though she was getting intentional twin time with some Christmas shopping in Hogsmeade, and she was so excited, not just because it was Christmas shopping but it was time with her twin to catch up and just spend time with him. They weren’t joined at the hip anymore like they’d been as babies according to her mum but they were still the best of friends and after going back and forth between four different sweatshirts finally threw on a yellow sweatshirt of a cartoon badger decorating a Christmas tree before grabbing her purse and wand and headed down to the common room where Samuel was waiting on her, as he typically did. “I couldn’t decide what festive sweatshirt to wear.” She joked, though it was truth before nodding her head, “I’m ready though. You ready to do some shopping with your favourite sister?” She asked as they headed out of the common room and towards the double doors that would take them to the grounds and beyond into Hogsmeade.

Samuel had always loved Christmas while he was growing up and that hadn’t changed as he had gotten older. Now he didn’t feel the same wonder about the day itself as he had done back then but he could see it written all over the faces of his younger siblings and he loved it. Samuel would be the first to admit that he wasn’t the best at buying presents for people, Savannah definitely had him beat in that respect but he always tried to go for something that he knew the person he was buying for would like. Even if they didn’t like it they never said anything and for that he really was grateful. There was still plenty of time left before Christmas and Samuel knew that he didn’t want to leave all of his shopping to the last minute like he had done a few years ago. He had definitely learned his lesson that year and he had sworn never to repeat it. Not only did he have Christmas with his family to look forward to but he had the Yule Ball as well and that was something that he knew he would enjoy. He was still debating on whether to ask someone to go with him that year or whether he would prefer to go alone or with some of his friends and he was glad that he still had plenty of time left in which to figure that out. He wasn’t sure what his sister’s plans were since they hadn’t talked about the Yule Ball yet but that was one of the things that he wanted to talk to her about that day. He had always been protective of Savannah and he knew that he always would be. They were more than old enough now to date but he knew that he didn’t want his sister to end up getting hurt so if he was honest he was glad that she hadn’t seemed too interested in that just yet. Samuel knew that if a guy ever hurt his sister then there would be trouble but more than anything he didn’t want his sister to get her heart broken so there was a part of him that hoped that that year she would end up flying solo so that wouldn’t be a problem. He wanted her to be happy but they had already lost their dad before they were born and he knew that he didn’t want Savannah to get hurt all over again if she started something and it didn’t work out.

When it came to his own heart Samuel wasn’t as worried, he knew that he would be just fine and now that the pressure of his OWLs was over he was more than ready to start putting himself out there more. Right now Christmas shopping had to be his focus, though, and Samuel was looking forward to it. It felt like a long time since they had last done this and he knew that they needed to make sure that they got to spend more time together where it was just the two of them. Savannah was always going to be his best friend and he knew that he didn’t want them to grow apart as they got older like some siblings did so he wanted to try and stop that from happening. Finally Savannah emerged and Samuel couldn’t help but laugh as she spoke. “Of course you couldn’t, I should have known,” he chuckled, rolling his eyes playfully before pretending to think about it as she asked if he was ready to do some shopping with his favourite sister. “You’re lucky the others aren’t around to hear you say that, there would be a riot if they were,” he teased before nodding. “Of course I am, let’s do this,” he said as they headed out of the Common Room and up the stairs that would take them to the corridor that would lead them outside. There was a Guardian waiting by the doors when they made it outside and they joined the group heading into Hogsmeade. “Have you got any ideas of what you want to buy anyone yet?” he asked, hoping that if she did then she might be able to give him some ideas as well.

Spoiling her family for Christmas, even if the gifts didn’t cost much in price they were always weighed down in sentimental worth, had easily replaced the magic of Christmas as she’d experienced it as a young girl. She remembered vividly waking up on Christmas morning to gifts under the tree with her name on them, exclaiming in excitement at what had been excitedly unwrapped, smiling at her mum who always seemed so tired on Christmas morning with her mug of coffee, that was until she got old enough to realize that her mum put the presents under the tree, stayed up late wrapping them, and took the time to shop and buy said gifts. Since that realization hit Savannah was quick to try and return the favor, sneaking presents under the tree mixed in with the gifts for her and her siblings. That got more difficult when Austin was born, though, and the gifts didn’t appear under the tree until Christmas morning and Savannah resorted to setting an alarm to get up and hide the presents under the tree and then doze back off until the sounds of Christmas morning woke her again. She’d debated finding work over the summer holiday this year to fully purchase next year’s gifts herself but with the unrest in the world she wasn’t sure if doing so would put her mum in an even more worried state than she already was. It was archaic but her mum seemed settled by the fact that the first twins were going out together, as if Samuel would protect his sister from harm, and while she knew he would, Savannah could hold her own and even protect her brother. Festive sweatshirt or not.

There was a high probability that another sort of festive sweatshirt would end up in her possession by the end of the day, it was the perfect season for it and there was so many cute ones she was sure she’d find one she had to have as she met her twin in the common room and smiled to his teasing about her taking long enough. “Tis the season for these sweatshirts so don’t knock it.” She teased as they made their way out of the common room, “They wouldn’t riot. They’d accept it as a known fact. You ask Riley and Renee who there favourite sister is I bet you they say each other. We’re twins, Samuel, that makes me automatically your favourite. You have no choice.” She teased bumping his shoulder playfully as they met the guardian and other groups of people headed into Hogsmeade. “I have a list.” She said rummaging in the pocket of her jeans for the paper she’d made up of gift ideas for everyone the same list in the confines of her phone as well with the ramble of her thought process of other potential ideas. “I know Ness needs another set of paint brushes, she was just telling me that when we had lunch last week. But there’s this really cute line of paint splatter outfits that one of the shops released and she needs some of them so I’m debating which one to get her.” Since Ness’ breakup with Xavier she’d been down in the dumps about it and Savannah had been trying to cheer her up, and a line of paint-splatter outfits seemed like a good idea, but given Ness’ profession as an artist, well, that too was a given for items. It made Ness the easiest person to buy for because there was always a range of gifts she needed. “I think I’m getting mum one of those picture frames that you can upload pictures since there’s only so much room on the wall.” She added knowing anything regarding the kids was a hit with their mum. “What you thinking about buying people?” She asked curiously wondering if there were any other ideas he might have that would trigger some of her own.

Christmas was a time of year that Samuel loved but Savannah always took it to a whole other level. He liked to tease her about it sometimes but it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing as far as he was concerned and with everything that had been going on since the start of the school year he knew that they all needed a distraction now more than ever before. Things at Hogwarts were still pretty tense and Samuel had a feeling that it would stay that way until the Enlightened were stopped once and for all. He honestly hoped that would happen soon but he knew that only time would tell so all they could do until then was to try and make the most of every moment while it lasted. Samuel already knew just how precious life was, after all his dad had died before he was born and even though he had eventually gained a new dad in Josh, it had taken him a while to accept the man and the truth was that he still found himself thinking about what would have happened if his biological dad had lived. It had made him learn to cherish the time he was able to spend with the people he loved and Savannah was the person that he was closest to in the whole world. He knew that it was expected considering that she was his twin but just the thought of something happening to her terrified him and he was glad that they had agreed to go shopping together so that he could make sure that she stayed safe. He loved his sister but he knew that she could be a little naive at times and he knew that the last thing he wanted was for her to end up getting into trouble because of it. Ever since the start of the year he had been making sure that he spent as much time with her and the rest of their family as he could and that day he would get the chance to not just do that but hopefully get some ideas about what to get all of them for Christmas as well so it was a win win as far as he was concerned.

“If you say so,” Samuel said, rolling his eyes playfully as his sister said that it was the season for those sweatshirts. “You know, I’ve never met anyone who liked those sweatshirts as much as you,” he teased. She had so many of them already and knowing Savannah she would probably find at least one that she wanted to pick up that day while they were in Hogsmeade to add to her collection. It seemed to be a slight obsession for his sister but then again he knew that there were much worse things to be obsessed about. “Of course they would, they’re joined at the hip most of the time,” he chuckled. “That’s where you’re wrong though, Ness is my favourite really,” he teased, unable to stop himself from winding his sister up as he nudged her back gently. Of course Savannah was his favourite, they both knew it and the rest of the family did as well but that didn’t mean that he was going to make it that easy for her. It wasn’t long before they joined a group about to head into Hogsmeade and Samuel couldn’t help but laugh as Savannah said that she had a list. “Of course you do,” he said, rolling his eyes fondly at this sister. “Sounds like Ness will be an easy one then. In that case how about you get her an outfit and I get the paint brushes?” he suggested, knowing that their sister would no doubt love both. “That’s a pretty good idea, I think she’d love that,” he admitted as Savannah said she was thinking about getting their mum a photo frame. As she asked what he was thinking about getting people, he winced. “Honestly I have no idea. I’m hoping I’ll get some ideas in Hogsmeade today but if not then you might need to help your favourite brother out,” he said, nudging her arm gently once more. “You need to give me some ideas about what you would like as well.”

There was just something about the Christmas season that was a different kind of magical than the type that all the witches and wizards learnt and lived in that world. It reminded her of the simpler times in the world, where things were simple, the season of gift giving, of cheesy sweatshirts, of predictable holiday romances that she’d still watch endless hours of. It was a magic all its own, and she lived for it. Plus she loved giving gifts to people she loved and trying to find that perfect thing that person needed, it was a fun challenge she looked forward to every year and she started thinking about it in the depths of summer sometimes, and getting to actually do the shopping and being accompanied by her twin who so happened to also be her best friend, well, that was even better even if it meant that he’d tease her about her vast array of sweatshirts and her inability to choose the perfect one for the day. “I do say so. And just because you haven’t seen anyone who likes them as much as me doesn’t mean they don’t exist. I’m in a whole text chain with people who do in fact love the holiday sweaters.” She said pointing to her phone and the group of holiday sweater watch filled with links for online finds or photos of in store finds. Almost every one of them Savannah felt needed to go home with her but considering her sweatshirt collection could only fill so much of her wardrobe at Hogwarts and her closet at home, well, she had to limit herself, which was definitely not as fun, but there was the financial aspect as well, her allowance couldn’t keep up with it either, so it was nice the space stopped her or her balance in the bank would have. “Mum said we used to be joined at the hip too when we were little. So it’s not that strange.” She pointed out knowing that being her mum’s first set of twins meant the things the girls did were compared to the twin acts that the they had done as toddlers, and she rolled her eyes at her twin saying Ness was her favorite over himself, “Oh. Funny I was going to say the same thing. She’s my favorite too.” She teased knowing very well that they were each other favorites hands down. Most families would find it shocking to have a favorite sibling, but it wasn’t a contest in the Forrester/Maddox household given the two sets of twins would obviously be each other’s favorites. She wondered who Ness’ favourite was, and liked to think it was herself, but figured Ness wouldn’t actually have a favourite since she didn’t have a twin to automatically assign herself to.

Joining the group of students already headed to Hogsmeade she was quick to show Samuel her list of Christmas present ideas she hoped to buy, hoping to check off a good chunk of them before the trip back to Hogwarts, enlisting in Samuel’s help to carry her haul as she figured he would anyways given he was the best brother ever and all that. “Sounds like a plan to me. It’d probably be less weird for you to buy paint brushes over a dress anyways.” Though the picture of it in her head made her giggle before she moved on to tell him a few other ideas and then asking him what he was planning to get other people and noticed his wince before confessing he had no idea and hoping inspiration just struck him in Hogsmeade. “Luckily I have enough ideas I can share with you as long as you help me figure out what to get Ryan. I’m stuck on him.” She confessed, trying not to let her cheeks color at being stuck on his gift. He’d asked her to the Yule Ball this year, and since she didn’t know by what he meant with going with her, it’d made her have all sorts of unsure ideas as far as his present this year. “As for as me, you could buy me a new sweatshirt from my list. Or a new journal or two. I’ve just been adding pages magically to my current one, but the binding is starting to bulge.” She confessed. She had been a religious journaler for some time, some of her journals containing short stories and book ideas from when she used to want to be an author, and the idea of writing a children’s book had came to mind since Austin was born, illustrated by Ness obviously, but she’d never shared her ideas and for all anyone in the family knew it was just a journal meant for her inner thoughts. She did have one for that purpose, and it was the one she was talking about but her stories version was getting full as well and if he needed ideas well, that was the first one to come to mind other than her obvious sweatshirt obsession.

Samuel loved Christmas but he always worried that he was awful at buying presents for the people he loved. It was always busy in their house on Christmas morning especially now that his younger siblings had come along and he knew that none of them would say anything if they didn’t like what he got them but every year Samuel felt the pressure to get it right. He had always been the kind of person who did well under pressure but when it came to his family, he knew that he wanted everything to be perfect. This year was especially important as far as he was concerned, the Enlightened had revealed magic to the world and had thrown the world into chaos but he hoped that for one day they would be able to forget about all of that. Nessie had her own place but she would be sure to join them and then he hoped that it would be like old times. Normally he wasn’t a fan of shopping but Samuel knew that Christmas shopping was important and going with Savannah meant that he would hopefully be able to get a few ideas from her about what to get everyone. He knew that chances were he would probably end up seeing at least a few things that would be perfect for various members of the family while they were there but having his sister for inspiration was never going to be a bad thing as far as Samuel was concerned. “Mhmm, sure there are,” Samuel said, not convinced for a minute. “You’re weird, sis. Just admit it,” he teased before nudging her arm playfully with his own. He had never understood her obsession with Christmas jumpers and he was pretty sure that he never would. “I actually remember that a little. I swear you used to follow me around all the time,” he chuckled, a smile forming on his face as he looked over at his sister. He had always been the one who made it to the physical milestones first, he had been crawling and walking before his sister, but they had still stuck together and he knew that they always would. “Sure you were,” he grinned as Savannah said that she was going to say that Nessie was her favourite as well. Samuel knew that Savannah would always be the one he was closest to, it had been the two of them against the world since they day they were born but that didn’t mean that he couldn’t still tease her about someone else being his favourite now and then.

It was easy for them to find the group that was heading into Hogsmeade. Earlier in the year they could have walked into the village just the two of them but now everyone was on high alert and Samuel knew that there was safety in numbers. Sticking together meant that it would be easier for the Guardians and Ministry workers to look out for them as well and he knew that that was never going to be a bad thing. They were already spread so thinly that he knew the last thing they needed was for things to be made even more difficult for them. “That’s true. She’d definitely think something was up if I bought her some new clothes,” he chuckled. Having that particular present come from Savannah would make much more sense, that was for sure. Samuel couldn’t deny that he was a little surprised when Savannah said that she would help him in exchange for him helping her figure out what to get Ryan. “What’s going on between you two?” he asked as he studied her carefully for a moment, unable to ignore the way her cheeks turned red slightly. “Are you going to the Ball as friends, or...?” he asked, letting the question trail off as he kept his gaze locked on his sister. There had been a few guys who had shown an interest in Savannah in the past but none of them had been good enough for her as far as Samuel was concerned and he knew that the last thing he wanted was for her to end up getting hurt. Ryan was their friend and had been their whole lives, they had pretty much grown up together but if he was honest it still felt a little weird and he knew that it would be good to get to the bottom of what was going on there. “You really don’t need me fuelling your jumper obsession anymore, you do that enough yourself already,” he teased, an amused smile forming on his face as he looked over at her.“Thanks though, I’ll keep that in mind,” he nodded before looking around them as they reached Hogsmeade. “Where shall we start?”

Being Samuel’s younger sister, even if the time between them was so brief neither of them would ever remember a time without the other, always left her feeling protected by a big brother and she had loved having someone she could go to whenever she felt the need to, or someone who knew somehow that she did need him. He was her first pick to do her shopping with, not just because they were overdue for some sibling time but because she knew with him by her side she’d be safe from any danger, and that she’d get his feedback on her thoughts on presents for the family they shared and get ideas for his gift as well. She usually resorted to silly gifts that tended to be in the way of some interest of his like Quidditch but she tried to venture from the typical gifts where she could but it was harder as the years went on. Even as her gifts got easier given her growing sweatshirt addiction and Christmas falling in that season making it a perfect gift. “I’m still weird, I’m just not alone in my weirdness. Those sweatshirts are still perfection thank you very much.” She teased with a laugh admitting easily that she was weird and she knew that Samuel could and would call her weird but he’d put anyone else who did it in their place for doing so as that was a luxury only those close to her got to say. “I did follow you around all the time. No sense denying it. You enjoyed it though I vaguely remember.” Their mum recounted the stories of their childhood enough that sometimes it felt as if she was reliving a memory instead of a story that she’d heard a million times but still got enjoyment out of hearing her and her twin when they were kids as Renee and Riley were now. She was sure when they were Savannah and Samuel’s age they’d pretend they weren’t each other’s favorites too, or perhaps they’d always admit it to the other. They seemed far more bonded than even Savannah and Samuel, something that she didn’t think was possible given how she felt about her twin.

He was her best friend and she doubted anything would change that, even though she had other friends and was close to them and considered them best friends as well ask her an order and Samuel was always on the top of the list and she fancied that the same was true where she ranked on his list. Making their way to Hogsmeade in the group was a necessary requirement these days but she didn’t mind the safety in numbers thought process plus the safety with Samuel making her feel even safer as they travelled and she ticked off her listed items for people she’d come up with so far, “She’d wonder if you lost a bet if she opened a gift from you to clothes. I’ll get the praise for my awesome choice and you’ll get the praise for yours if you get her the brushes.” She agreed, and wished she’d never brought Ryan’s name up as she tried to hide the blush that came with his question of what was going on with them. “Nothing. We’re friends.” She answered immediately, which wasn’t a lie, “Um, I don’t know. He didn’t specify and I didn’t ask so…probably?” His second question was the hot topic in her brain right now, if he’d asked her to the ball as friends or more, and why she hadn’t thought to get that huge piece of clarification from him and just given him a huge smile and a yes for an answer without a second thought to what she said yes to and what he may have implied in his question that she hadn’t picked up on at the time. It was the million galleon question she asked and changed her answer to every time it came to mind, which was quite often that she was glad she had plans with Ness soon to bounce these ideas off of to prevent her head from doing the rather unsightly thing and exploding from so many thoughts swirling around up there on the same topic it short-circuited. She was happy to return to the safe topic of jumpers and her twin fuelling her obsession and mock pouted at his seemingly refusal to add to her collection as a Christmas gift as he asked where to start, “I want to start at Gladrag’s and get Ness’ dress before it sells out and I kick myself for not getting it sooner then we can start in one direction and go down the line where we need and when we get back to the start point to a break for you to buy me food and warm drinks before going the other way.” She suggested, innocently putting him buying lunch in his head with practised ease that she figured he’d be getting it anyways even if she hadn’t thrown it into the schedule she’d came up with on the drop of a hat. It made sense to tick things off the list by shop rather than bouncing from one direction to another like a pinball in a machine. Methodical would work best she thought. Unless Samuel had another plan and then she’d likely go for his plan either way.

It was no secret that Samuel wasn't a fan of shopping, he couldn't stand it most of the time but when it came to birthdays and Christmas then he knew that he had no choice but to go. Most of the time he struggled coming up with something to get for the people he loved but luckily Savannah was much better at choosing presents for people than he was. The two of them were twins and they had always been close so when it came to things like this he was always much happier going with his sister. It gave them an excuse to hang out away from Hogwarts for a while and that was never going to be a bad thing as far as he was concerned. He loved Savannah and even though the two of them were getting older, he knew that he didn't want anything to come between them. With the way things were right now, Samuel knew that he would feel much better knowing that they were out there together as well. Samuel had always been protective of Savannah and the thought of her going out there on her own terrified him. If something happened to her because he wasn't there to look out for her then he knew that he would never be able to forgive himself so he would much rather be there by her side. Hogsmeade was protected by Guardians and Ministry workers alike so there would be plenty of people around to look out for them but Samuel knew that he wasn't going to let his guard down too much. After everything that had happened so many people were on edge and Samuel couldn't deny that he was one of them. "If you say so," Samuel chuckled, still not convinced in the least as Savannah said that she was weird she just wasn't alone in her weirdness. He had never understood her obsession with holiday jumpers but it made her happy and that was all that Samuel ever wanted for her so the truth was that he didn't mind too much, he just liked teasing her about it from time to time. "Yeah, I think I did. I might tease you sometimes but I've always loved spending time with you," Samuel admitted, knowing that it wouldn't hurt to be honest rather than make another jokey comment. Their mum loved telling stories about when they were younger and there were times when they were pretty embarrassing but it always made him happy to hear just how close they were even back then.

Savannah was his best friend without a doubt, it had been that way ever since they were kids and even though Samuel had others he considered best friends as well, he knew that he was always going to be closest to this twin. That title alone gave them the chance to be close and they had certainly taken that and ran with it. They had other siblings, Ness was older than the two of them were and they had three younger siblings as well, but more often than not it felt like it was just the two of them against the world and Samuel knew that it would feel strange for that to ever change. Their little bubble was bound to start getting bigger soon as the two of them were getting older and sooner or later they might find that special person they wanted to be with but for now it was still just the two of them and Samuel knew that was just as it should be. Samuel's hand remained on his wand in his pocket as they made their way to Hogsmeade, there were plenty of others around them and they were being escorted to the village as well but Samuel had realised pretty quickly that outside of Hogwarts it was important to be ready for anything that might happen and that was exactly what he wanted to do. "That sounds about right," he chuckled as Savannah said that Ness would think he lost a bet if he gave her clothes for Christmas. "I've always found it weird that girls can buy each other clothes and think nothing of it but the moment a boy does it, they think something is up. Gets me out of buying you both clothes though so I'm not arguing," he added with a grin. There were some girls who would probably think a boy didn't like their taste in clothes if that was what they received from them as a present so he was more than happy to avoid that. Savannah was the only exception to that rule, her obsession with holiday jumpers made those an easy present to buy for her if he found himself unable to come with with something else but that was different. That wasn't normal clothes shopping which always bored him senseless and he knew Savannah's tastes well enough to know which ones she would like so it never took him too long either. "That works for me, thanks," he nodded as Savannah said they would both get praise if she got Ness clothes and he got her the paint brushes. He felt a little bad using his sister's idea but then again he would much rather get Ness something that she would really like as opposed to something that she would only pretend to like. Samuel raised an eyebrow as he looked over at Savannah when she said that she and Ryan were just friends but then said they were probably going as just friends. "You don't sound sure about that," he said gently. "Do you want to be more than friends with him?" Samuel asked, not sure where his sister's head was at right now. Ryan had been their friend ever since they were babies and while Samuel was always going to be protective of his sister and the last thing he wanted was for her to end up getting her heart broken. He didn't think that Ryan would do that so he was probably one of the few people that Samuel would consider trusting with his sister but he wasn't sure how they felt about each other at the moment. Rolling his eyes playfully as Savannah pouted when he said he wasn't going to fuel her jumper obsession, Samuel nodded at her suggestion before shaking his head as she said that he was going to buy her food and warm drinks. "Who says I'm paying today?" he asked even though he always did whenever they went out somewhere together. It was another way he had of taking care of his sister and he was pretty sure it was never going to change. "The rest works for me though. I'd rather we pick up her dress first, last time you didn't get something you had your heart set on you dragged me around the whole village looking for it when the shop you saw it in sold out." That was definitely something that he wanted to avoid if they could so he knew that it was worth a shot. As they reached the village, Samuel led the way in the direction of Gladrags before holding the door open for his sister when they reached the shop.
