Peter Pettigrew had just finished packing his trunk and it looked great. Well as good as an eleven year old could do with out help. A loud crash from the floor below caught his attention. They were arguing again, no doubt about him.

"You should take him John!" yelled a woman's voice

"Why should I take him Matilda! I didn't even want him in the first place!" yelled John Pettigrew. This was not new to Peter. He had been hearing this his whole life. At first they though he was a squib but when he had put a silencing charm around them they were for a few minutes proud. They were always proud of his older sister Margaretta who went to Beauxbatons academy in France. He hated her.

"Fine I'll take him! Peter get down here you waste of space." Yelled Matilda Pettigrew up the stairs.

Peter was used to this also.

"Coming Mum." Said Peter as he ran down the stairs with his trunk

"Don't you ever call me that you squib!" yelled Matilda as she slapped him across the face hard enough to leave an imprint. This was nothing new, she had never liked him

"Yes mu-I mean ma'am."

"That's better. Now listen I'll find my purse and then we'll go. Won't that be great." Said Matilda with a fake sickly sweetness in her voice

Peter decided to go the porch and practice some minor jinxes. He didn't want to look like a squib. The homes around his were spread out about five miles between houses. That posed a real problem in the terms of making friends. He had only one friend and she was a year younger that him. Addie Hillspare. God he liked her. To bad he had to mess it all up by kissing her. Well more like he fell on her and their lips brushed for a split second. Then she ran away and he fainted. He woke up and it was dark out. He got a whipping for being late for dinner.

"H-hi Peter." Said Addie as she walked up to him. He didn't even notice her. She joined him on the steps and blushed. Their kiss was their secret.

"I-I'm sorry, Addie." Stuttered Peter

"I-it's ok. I k-kinda liked it." said Addie as her bright red face matched her hair

"S-so did I ." stuttered Peter as she came closer to him. Soon the gap between them was filled

"Peter get in hear! Say good by to your little girl friend and get a move on you fat tub of lard!" yelled Matilda through the window. Peter didn't care about her insults. He just kissed a girl! A real girl! Something he though would never happen in a million years.

"I-I'll owl you!" yelled Peter as he saw her leave. Everything was coming up Peter!

"C'mon I don't have all bloody afternoon!" yelled Matilda as she pushed him hard into the wall. Stars danced across his eyes and he almost collapsed. He knew better than to collapse and ruin his mother's new dress though.
