Elena arrived home that day with Alec fortunately without any mention of the argument, though her ankle was still a sore reminder. Her friends from Hogwarts, Jemima and Iris we’re coming over, and she quickly tried to make herself presentable while Alec refused to let her make dinner, and made it himself.
