Descending the half-spiral staircase with rapid steps came the eldest of Zabini children quickly followed by his younger sister as the two raced through the Estate to the breakfast table where their mother had set breakfast for them just two minutes ago. Although Reese could've easily beaten his younger sister by apparating to the table, he'd agreed not to use magic so as not to gain an unfair advantage against her since she was but 15 and he 17 and able to use magic whenever he wanted. The first to reach the table again for what he counted the fourth time this week, Reese couldn't help but put on a boasting smirk as he looked down upon his sister and took his place at the table on the left-hand side of his father across from his mother who usually sat on Blaise's right-hand side. "Good morning father, anything good in the Prophet today?" Reese asked as he turned his head toward his left where his father sat with a scrutinizing look on his face as he held a page of the Daily Prophet in his lap.
Before Blaise could answer his son, his beautiful wife entered the dining room followed by four plates and tall glasses and four sets of stainless steel silverware that all set itself upon the dining room table. Next to come into the room was a pitcher of orange juice followed by a steaming tea kettle that each set itself on the table as well beside each other without so much as that all too familiar clink sound dishes made. Gabrielle stroked her husband's shoulder before bending slightly in order to plant a kiss on his lips which made both her kids grimace. Breakfast was served, and it smelled amazing! "Odeurs délicieux."1 Reese spoke toward his mom to see her smile his way as she took her seat across from him. Quickly mimiced by his younger sister, Reese scoffed slightly before he turned his eyes down toward the food, closing them as he prayed over it to bless the food before he began to dig in.
About an hour after breakfast was over and the dishes were washed and put away, his father was preparing to leave to go to work at the Ministry, just as Reese was preparing to go about his day in Diagon Alley. Upstairs in his bedroom, the eldest Zabini reached and grabbed the Holly handle of his wand before shoving it into his right pocket, also grabbing his new pocket watch in which he stashed in his left pocket after attatching it to one of the belt loops on his shorts. Pulling on his socks and shoes, Reese sighed slightly as he opened his bedroom door and made his way down the half-spiral staircase to the front door of his home. Feeling his pockets to make sure he had remembered to bring some money, Reese called out to his mother to tell her he'd be back later on today, only to be told to be safe and be home by dinner. Such a mom answer, but he loved her. A few seconds later Blaise Zabini came to the front door along with his son, leading him outside as the two of them made their way down the walkway leading up to the Zabini Estate. Just as they came to the ending, Blaise and Reese nodded to each other before they disappeared with a loud crack sound as they went their seperate ways.
Another crack sounded as Reese landed firmly on the ground just before Gringotts Wizard Bank. Shaking his head with a slow groan, Reese turned his back on the bank so as to make his way down Diagon Alley. Merlin's beard he hated the feeling of being squeezed through an impossibly tight tube when he apparated, it surely wasn't a pleasant feeling. He remembered the first time he'd apparated he puked all too quickly as he rematerialized over the proctor's shoes. Setting about down the Alley, Reese would walk for a minute or two before he paused in his tracks just before Quality Quidditch Supplies where he took a look through the window to see if there was anything worth going inside to buy. Maybe a Quaffle that he could take home for himself? Shrugging it off for now, Reese continued on his way down the alley taking his time to walk down the crowded area, surely annoying some of the older witches and wizards behind him.
