Chapter 1 – Michael Potter

"Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad!"

"Yes Michael…" My dad sighs placing down the Daily Prophet that he was happily reading in peace.

"My Hogwarts letter just came! Can we go get my wand now? Please, please, please!" I beg. I had just turned 11 in May and finally, after waiting years, my Hogwarts exception letter has arrived! For the first time ever I would be allowed my own wand!

Dad looks to his wrist and then back at me.

"Wait until Dazy gets here." He says before picking up the newspaper again.

"But… that's not fair!" I protest. "She's already got a wand and besides, she's a Ravenclaw!"

"There's nothing wrong with Ravenclaw's son." He pauses. "And besides you could be in Ravenclaw. You haven't been sorted yet."

"But I don't like Ravenclaw's!"

"If you keep on the way you're going then we won't go at all!"

That silenced me. I sighed and headed back up to my room. it wasn't fain! Dazy always came first!

But for the first time in my life, I couldn't wait for Dazy to get here! Dazy is 5 years older than me and is starting her 6th year at Hogwarts. She's my older sister. Well Half-sister. Dad was a teenage parent at the age of 16. He knew his girlfriend was pregnant and he had seen his daughter but after the first week they went away and dad never heard from them again. Then he had me when he was 21 and brought me up single handily as my mother died giving birth to me. Then last year when I was 10, there was a knock on the door and for the first time in my life I learnt that I wasn't an only child. After that, dad only paid attention to Dazy. I absolutely hated her for it. I never got into trouble with dad until Dazy came along and then suddenly everything I did happened to be wrong.

"James?" I hear a voice call out. Annabel Tippits. Dad's ex-girlfriend and Dazy's mum. I slowly make my way downstairs just in time to see Annabel stepping back into the fireplace and disappearing. Then my eyes landed on the most dreaded person ever… Dazy! Even though she normally lives with her mum she's had the name Potter for a while now, so she's officially my sister. I quickly turn to dad.

"Can we go now?"

"In a minute Michael! First I want you letter and second you can help Dazy take her bags upstairs. She will be staying with us until September 1st."

"September 1st? That's a month!" I moan.

"Michael! Do you want to go or not?"

With that I went back upstairs, leaving Dazy to take her bags by herself.

i know its not much for a first chapter but it gets better honest. please review if you liked... if you did chapter 2 is coming up soon... :)

peace, love and Jellybeans xxxx
