Chapter 1, This is the Beginning

Open the boxes, unpack what you own.

Hang up some posters and make this a home.

Walk down the stairs and open the door.

Look at the things you've never seen before.

Get on the buses, learn numbers and names

Your eyes are the camera, your heart is the frame

Hum a new song as you walk down the streets,

Soon they'll be full with friends and memories.

This is the beginning, of anything you want.

This is the beginning...

This is the beginning, of anything you want.

This is the beginning...

-This is the beginning, Boys

"There they are!" Rose Weasley and her family walked to a group of four people whose faces were blurred by the mist. They were currently in Platform 9 and 3 quarters because Rose was going to start her first year at Hogwarts.

"Hi." said Albus, sounding relieved. "Hey Albus, Hey Lily!" she greeted her cousins as her aunt and uncle were talking to her parents. "Where's James?" "He's probably trying to find Fred in this fog. I swear they're planning something-"His voice was drowned out by those of Lily and Hugo, talking about which Hogwarts house they wanted to be in.

"If you're not in Gryffindor, We'll disinherit you." Said Rose's father Ron teasingly . "But no pressure."

"Ron!"

Lily and Hugo laughed but Rose and Albus looked solemn.

"He doesn't mean it." Said Hermione and Auntie Ginny reassuringly . But Ron was no longer paying attention to the children, and was now pointing to 3 people who were about fifty yards away. "Look who it is." He said to Uncle Harry. Now that the mist was clearer, Rose could make out a boy her age with Platinum blonde hair, who was talking to his father whom he looked greatly alike. Beside them was a dark haired woman, smiling.

"So that's little Scorpius," muttered Ron. "Make sure you beat him in every test, Rosie. Thank God you inherited your mother's brains." "Ron, for heaven's sake!" Said Hermione, though she was blushing slightly. "Don't try to turn them against each other before they've even started school!"

"You're right, sorry." But unable to help himself, he added: "Don't get too friendly with him, though, Rosie. Granddad Weasley would never forgive you if you married a pureblood." Rose blushed the trademark Weasley blush she was known for.

"Hey!"

James was now running to the eight people who were waiting for him. "Teddy's back there," said James panting. "Just seen him! And guess what he's doing? Snogging Victoire!"

Disappointed at the reactions he got, he added "Our Teddy! Teddy Lupin! Snogging our Victoire! Our cousin! And I asked Teddy what he was doing-"

Ginny cut him off. "You interrupted them? You are so like Ron-"

"-And he said he'd come to see her off! And then he told me to go away. He's snogging her!" James repeated again.

"Oh! It would be lovely if they got married! Whispered Lily, playing with her ginger hair. "Teddy would really be part of the family then!"

Uncle Harry smiled, his shaggy black hair gleaming in the light. "He already comes round for dinner about four times a week. Why don't we just invite him to live with us and have it done with?"

"Yeah!" said James ecstatically. "I don't mind sharing with Al-Teddy can have my room!" "No. You and Al will share a room only when I want the house demolished." Rose, Lily, and Hugo snickered. "It's nearly eleven; you'd better get on board." Ron and Hermione gave Rose one last hug and she promised Hugo she would write to him, then leapt onto the train, not waiting for Albus(who was usually a bit slow), and finally going to Hogwarts.
