Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry has been a place I've wanted to go to since I found out I was a witch, five years ago. My name is Alexandria Nicole Potter, but I prefer Xandra. I am also Harry Potter's unknown cousin. Although the 'unknown' part might not last to long. Dumbledor dropped by and talked to me two weeks ago. He said he was going to tell Harry about me last week, and to tell him I was going to Hogwarts. My mother is a muggle and Lily's sister. My mother has an affair with a married man who, we found out when I was eleven, was a wizard. The day after Dumbledor stopped by he came over again with the sorting hat so we'd know what house I'd bein. A few minutes after the hat was placed upon my head it declared me a Slytherin. Tomorrow I'll be starting my first day as a sixth year. Harry is only fifteen and a fifth year. I wander what Harry will think of me being a Slytherin.
Sitting on my couch reading my book I hear my mom in the kitchen. Marking my page and getting up to go to the kitchen I see her making tea for two.
"Xandra sit down. I want to talk to you." Her tone sounded tired and wary. Sitting across from her I drink my tea and wait for her to start.
"I want you to be good at school this year. Don't do anything mischievous. I know Harry's friends with the Weasleys and the twins are pranksters so at least try not to get in trouble. For me." She made it sound like this will be our last conversation with the way she talked.
"I promise I won't get in to much trouble while I'm at Hogwarts. I also promise that I'll owl you all the time so you don't have to worry about me." She gave me a small smile.
"I know you will. You've always been able to have fun and be responsible." She got up and gave me hug before going to her bedroom. I sighed as I put our now empty cups into the sink. Walking back to the living room I grab my book and head to my room for the night.
AN~ If you like it message me or favorite so I know to write more. This was something I started writing in Spanish earlier this week so I hope it's okay.
And to those who read my other stories I'll update them when I find the notebook I keep my stories is. Sorry people.
