Matt clasped the letter home a little tighter in his hand.
It had been a while since he'd written home, in fact he hadn't since he got to England a month ago.
His stomach burnt with guilt at the thought of having no contact with his son or daughter, and his sister, back home in Canada.
And he knew he should keep them, his sister in particular, informed of what was going on here.
Which was nothing, but still...
He fastened the letter to the leg of an owl and sent it off, watching it fly into the distance, hoping for a reply soon.

Angel ran into the post office quickly. "Stupid stupid Storm..." She mumbled. She saw an older guy standing there watching an owl fly away. "You okay there?" She asked, "you look kind of... distant!"

"Yeah..." Matt mumbles absently, "Just guilty...haven't written home on a while."

"You're lucky you have someone to write to," Angel shrugged. "I'm Angel."

"Matt," He smiles at her, "Sorry, my mhead's elsewhere lately."

"Don't worry about it," Angel said, laughing slightly. "I sometimes have days like that."

"Nope!" Angel smiled. "So, haven't seen you around anywhere before."

"No, I'm not from around here." He smiles, "I'm from Brampton. It's a place in Ontario, Canada."

"Wow," Angel smiled. "I've never been out of England before. What's it like there?"

"It's not much...well, where I'm from anyway. Not much, just quiet and calm, and frightfully boring, but it's home." He smiles, just thinking about it, "I've never been to England before, it's all very...busy. Well, around here it seems to be anyway. I keep getting lost." He laughs.

"It's not when you get used to it I guess," Angel shrugged. "It's what you grow up with, never thought about it that much before."

"I have. A lot." Matt says.
He'd thought about how growing up so differently might have made his brother.
He wasn't sure what to expect, or how he might be, or anything and it was making him nervous.

"Everybodys different," Angel smiled. "Why did you come to England?"

"Because it would be boring if we were all the same." He smiles, "I'm looking for my brother. It's hard work. He's changed his name a fair few times, I think. So it's useless looking for someone with his old name, but I've got a few leads, and well, hopefully I can find him and then go back home."

"His name would be?" Angel asked. "Does he go to hogwarts?"

"I think he does. And his name was Christopher Turner. Now, I'm not so sure."

Angel felt her jaw drop. "I know who he is."

Matt felt something like a brick settle in his stomach and when he spoke his voice had taken on an almost hoarse quality, "You do?"

Angel nodded. "I'm a friend of his. He's got a different name now though."

Matt thought for a moment, which seemed to last an age, he wanted to know his name, where to find him...but there was something more important he had to ask before he found him, "What's he like?"

"He's..." Angel thought for a moment. Should she tell him what he was really like? Or should she make him seem like he was happy and having fun? "He's nice and stuff," she shrugged. "A litttle depressed lately though."

Claire's words immediately popped into his head, He's not likely to be the happiest of people, and come on Matt, if some foreign guy turned up claiming to be your older brother, would you believe it?
"Why?" He asks quietly. "What's happened? He's okay, isn't he?"

"Girlfriend problems, one of them killed herself," Angel said quietly. "Also a friend of mine. And he's thinking about leaving..."

"Oh," He says, struggling to think of something to say, "What's-...what's his name?"

"His full name or first name?" Angel asked. "I know where he lives as well..."

"His full name is Ian Hunt," Angel said quietly. "I'll take you to his house later if you want."

"Ian Hunt..." He pauses, taking it in, "I'd like that. Thank you."

"No problem," Angel smiled. "So how long have you been looking for him?"
