Chap 1: A short farewell
Malfoy. A name uttered endlessly at family dinners when the subject of The Second War came up. Father never liked this family particularly Draco Malfoy.
"He should count himself lucky he escaped Azkaban." Father angrily said as he stared into the fire.
"He went through a lot after that, and marrying Astoria and having a son seems to have changed him." Mum said gently squeezing his shoulder. "We should not look into the past, Ron. He may surprise you, you know," she said reassuringly. Ron smiled slightly in her direction.
"Nothing can surprise me now." and with that, he walked out the room off to sleep.
Rose Weasley. A name I always said with pride. Being the daughter of Ron and Hermonie was something that made people turn heads and star at me as we all walked past towns, particularly Diagon Alley. I liked to think it was my name that had this effect, rather than my appearance. My fiery red hair and blue eyes told a different story. Everyone said my features were that of a beauty but I never saw it. Whenever I look in the mirror sure my features made me pretty, but my name left a bigger impression. I was a Weasley. The reputation I would have to carry with me for all my days. A name that will be yelled out tomorrow in the Sorting Hat Ceremony.
Nervously shuffling myself I turned towards mom. She was staring at me with a curiously playful look in her eye.
"Thinking about the Hogwarts, aren't we?" She said with an all knowing smile.
I nodded in amazement wondering how she could tell.
Putting her arm around me, pressing a kiss to my forward
"No matter what happens, you'll do fine. Your father and I, don't care what house you're put in. As long as you still visit us during the holidays we'll be okay. Your own adventures await at Hogwarts and you'll find yourself, don't stress Rosie". "Now off to bed, you need to be well rested for Kings Cross."
As I walked up the stairs I couldn't help but wonder if she was right. I tossed and turned that night. Thinking of a castle I had only seen in dreams.
A/N: Hello guys. This is my first HP fanfic. I've been wanting to write this a long time, so I finally plucked up the courage to sit and write. I know this was super short but I was pressed on time, next one will be longer! ;) Reviews are greatly appreciated!
