Chapter 1
"Get the door boy!" shouted the owner of number 4 Privet Drive. "Yes Uncle Vernon." came the reply. A boy, who looked to be about 16 with untidy black hair and sat below his shoulders and baggy grey clothes. He opened the door and stared at the girl standing outside. "Al? Is that you?" He glanced behind him then back at the girl taking in her appearance. Her black hair was straight and fell down her back. Her violet eyes gazed back at him beneath thin eyebrows. She had on a red singlet, black flared jeans and black leather boots. She chuckled. "Cause it's me Harry. Aren't you gonna invite me in? Seeing as how I'm gonna be living here for a few months." His eyes widened. "Does your father know?" Alexia frowned. "No, and he won't find out ok. Now let me in. The neighbours are staring." She stepped inside the house and Harry shut the door behind her. "Well? Who was it boy?" yelled Harry's uncle. He came storming are the corner, his large belly leading the way. "Who the ruddy hell are you?" he asked. Alexia smirked. "Your worst nightmare." His eyes widened and he stumbled backwards. "Be nice Alex." Alexia winked at her friend. "Mr Dursley. I am not afraid of you. My father is Lord Voldemort. You are stuck with me and Harry for around 2 to 3 more months." As she spoke she took a miniature bag out of her pocket, tapped it with her finger and enlarged it. She opened it and took out a medium sized wooden box. The box had a white lily carved into the top. "Is that, what I think it is?" Harry asked as he reached up to touch it. "Yes and no. Yes, it is a blood lily box. But no, I'm not dating Draco." Vernon's son, Dudley came waddling in with his mum coming up behind. "You got a girlfriend, Potter?" sneered Dudley. Alexia and Harry looked at each other. "Ew! No. It would be like sleeping with a brother!" said Alexia as Harry mimicked gagging. "I'll date ya then." Said Dudley smugly. Alexia erupted into giggles. "That would be even worse! Like dating a dead whale!" Alexia put the box back in her bag, tucked her arm through Harry's and walked up the stairs to Harry's room still laughing.
