What girl can resist the Potter charm?

Chapter 1

Mel's pov.

I passed threw the barrier of platform 9 ¾ to find a pair of arm thrown around my shoulders.

"Melanie, I've missed you so much" Rose Weasley gushed, her eyes lighting up while stepping away form me. Rose has been my best mate since we met on the train in first year. When we were both sorted into Gryffindor we realised we had a lot in common like witch weekly, quidditch and cupcakes. Now were inseparable, with are other best mates Albus Potter ( Rose's cousin) and Scorpius Malfoy ( to the complete shock of are parents).

"lets go find the boys" I heard Rose say, shaking me out of my thoughts.

I grabbed my trunk and we made our way threw the mass of people on the platform to the train.

Rose just couldn't wait till we found the compartment the boys were in to start telling me all about her vacation.

"France with Dominique and Lily was so much fun, the fashion there is unbelievable" Rose said.

" how was Italy, with your family ? "

"It was good , Italian boys are so hot " I responded " meet anyone ? She asked while she waggled her eyes at me, and I groaned. " life doesn't revolve around boys Rose !" I signed. Recently I been thinking a lot about boys actually, well more like one boy. I couldn't stop thinking about Al and his eyes and what a nice colour they are…

"Focus Mel!" she started " Were almost at the compartment they told me to met them in."

The closer we got we started to hear two very familiar voices coming from are usual compartment.

"what are they…. " rose said before I stopped her by putting my hand to her mouth. "shhhh !" I shushed her , " I want to hear this." I whispered.

She caught on and opened the compartment door just a crack. Right there was Scorpius and Al, the were talking about something that seemed important. I took a moment to look them up and down, since I had only seen Scorp in July and had been unable to sped any time with Al because of my trip to Italy. Scorpius's hair looked even blonder then last year. Probably due to being outside playing quidditch this summer. Talking about quidditch, now that I thought of it both Al and Scorp had very well developed and were looking hot ! And I could tell rose agreed by the scarlet blush that was spreading from her ears.

"wow" I murmured. " I know…" Rose whispered back.

Al was looking…. Hot. I mean I knew he was hot because the girls at Hogwarts said it enough, but I had never thought he could look any hotter. His hair was all messy and in his eyes. Those beautiful green eyes….. Anyway I started to focus on what they were saying when there volume increased. Al looked really frustrated. And scorpius looked clearly bored.

" We've had this discussion before. Just ask her out." Scorp said.

" I can't" Al wined.

" why ? Scorpius remarked " you're perfect for each other. Your best mates"

"She doesn't feel that way about me." He frowned.

"Of course she does. What girl can resist the Potter charm?"

"She can." Al sighed and ran his hand through his messy black hair.

Me and Rose got up and backed away form the door.

"Who do you think he's talking about" Rose asked me.

"well I'm kind of hoping….." I started, but Rose interrupted me.

"Oh my gosh! You like him don't you" she exclaimed.

" ok, ok maybe I do" " but how do you know he was talking about me ? Huh ? I asked Rosie.

" I don't want to risk ruining are friendship if he doesn't like me back."

He does, I'm sure of it. But I understand. She said. I let go of the breath I didn't know I was holding,

" ok, so what are we going to do?" I ask her surprised that she's ok with me liking her cousin.

" I'll ask him later. If he does. I have a plan to get you guys together."

" okay great what's the plan?"

" one step at a time, Mel." "Fine" I huff " you can tell me tonight in our dormitory." I say.

" lets go in there now we've been spying long enough, I still can't believe we did that"

" oh no, rose! I have butterflies in my stomach!" I panic.

" don't worry" Rose reassures me " everything will be alright"

" promise? I whisper.

" I'm not going to promise you that, he's one of your best mates. Your over reacting, because your nervous."

"now let's go." she says while dragging me to the door. We grab our trunks and she indicates for me to go first. I sigh and open the compartment door completely. Both there heads pop up and they get up.

"what took you so long we've been waiting?" Scorpius asks while giving both me and Rose hugs. I shrug before grabbing Albus and giving him a big hug.

"I've missed you so much" I whisper in his ear. I lean away for a moment to see him blushing.

" Me two." he whispers back.

" we got caught up talking about our vacations." Rose says after a long pause.

Me and Rose put our trunks away and rose goes to sit beside Scorp. Leaving the only other available seat next to Al. I sit down and give him a warm smile. Before joining in on Rose and Scorpius's conversation.

" France was amazing, but I had to learn a little French." rose giggled " but I missed you guys so much."

Al turns to me. " tell us about your trip to Italy, Mel ? "

And I do. I tell them about the weather, the language and the culture. We talk about what the boys did that summer. Witch was basically, quidditch, quidditch and more quidditch.

And before we knew it, it was time to change into our robes.

I stepped into our compartment in my Gryffindor robes with rose at my heels. Once inside I see Al and Scorp already in there Slytherin robe's.

"Scorp, can you believe were in 6th year?" I ask.

"No , it feels like yesterday when we were all 1st years"

" yeah, but I'm excited" al interjected

Scorp laughed, " you're just saying that because you're quidditch captain."

"what?" " Al you're quidditch captain, since when?'

"since now." he said "didn't Rose tell you?"

" no, she didn't." I say while turning to her. Rose laughed distractedly gazing out the window.

" sorry must of forgot" she says, without turning to look at me. Witch tells me she's either lying or not wiling to admit the hole truth.

"it's all good I say…. Oh wait…. I'm quidditch captain two, surprise!"

"Oh…" Al says. I know what everyone's thinking right now Al is captain and the Slytherin quidditch team, I'm captain of the Gryffindor quidditch team. Not good….

'Hey Mel.." Al says turning to me, " no matter what were best mates ok? No matter who wins. Deal?

I shake his hand, " deal".

At that moment the trolley arrives outside our door. Both Al and Scorp both get chocolate frogs while Rose get a liquorice wand or two.

"Burk I can't stand those things." I say while staying up and ordering a bag of bertie bots every flavour beans.

We spend the rest of the train ride caching up, laughing and playing exploding snap.
