Disclaimer: Same as always, I don't own Harry Potter only my characters.
Well, I can't believe it but this is my second story on these 'series' I'm writing :P I hope you people like it as much as the other, (even though not everyone did) but hey, I hope you like it so enjoy!
*~*~*~*
Even though it was the start of the school holidays, Professor Albus Dumbledore was yet to start them. As he sat on his chair behind his desk, waiting for young Nick to arrive, he began to think of how to spend his holidays. He began to think of going down to the beach that all muggles enjoyed when a knock at his door startled him.
"Come in," Dumbledore said looking up smiling.
The door slowly creaked open and from out behind it came in Nick who looked completely petrified. Dumbledore smiled as Nick came closer to his desk. Nick gasped and quickly took off his cap; it was rude to leave it on when speaking to Dumbledore in his opinion.
"Please sit down Nick," Dumbledore said still smiling at Nick.
Nick nodded quickly and sat on the chair which Dumbledore had put in front of desk for this occasion. Nick sat down slowly holding his cap tightly in his hands. Nick stared down at the floor, to scared to meet Dumbledore's eyes.
"Is something the matter?" Dumbledore said staring at Nick threw his half moon shaped glasses.
"No sir, just a little nervous sir," Nick squeaked and turned away blushing.
"It's alright, I have thought about it and I don't see why we can't accept you," Dumbledore said gather up some papers off his desk.
"You mean, I'm accepted, here, at Hogwarts?" Nick asked in shock.
Dumbledore gave a little chuckle and said, "Yes Nick, I do believe that's what I said."
Nick smiled his first smile of the afternoon. A great thrill ran through him. He wanted to start right now. He had never been accepted in a place as great as Hogwarts. Nick began to grin and bowed to Dumbledore as he got up out of his seat.
"Thank so much Professor Dumbledore, believe me you won't regret it," Nick said bowing to him again and turned to leave.
"Ah, Nick could you come back here please," Dumbledore called and as Nick turned he saw him reading his file.
'Oh no please don't say he found out,' Nick thought as he felt his heart sank.
"Yes sir, is something the matter?" Nick asked politely hoping he didn't find what he thought he did.
"Oh nothing, my mistake you can leave," Dumbledore said rereading it before looking up and smiling at him.
Nick suddenly smiled broadly and turned around quickly and left. He closed the door behind him and lent up against it and let out a sigh of relief. He was so lucky he didn't find out. Nick hadn't told anyone about his true identity and as far as he was concerned, he never was.

"What about this one?" Ginny asked as her and her two best friends, Laura and Lauren stopped outside yet another clothes shop to help Lauren find the 'perfect outfit' to where out on her date.
"Way to dressy," Lauren said and kept on walking.
"But that's like the last shop on this whole street," Laura complained dragging along behind the others.
"But I wanted my outfit to be perfect!" Lauren screamed stamping her foot angrily on the ground.
"You've got plenty of good clothes to where out," Ginny said turning around the corner.
"Not ones for going out on a date," Lauren said sulkily.
"Can I go home if this is all we are going to be doing?" Laura asked lagging behind.
"Fine then," Lauren said walking off ahead.
"Tell her I said goodbye," Laura said as her and Ginny hugged goodbye.
"Will do, see you!" Ginny called as Laura ran across the road.
Ginny waved goodbye to Laura before she sped up her pace and caught up to Lauren who was still down about having no outfit. Ginny put her arm around Lauren's shoulders and walked along beside her.
"It's unfair; I have nothing to wear at all!" Lauren groaned throwing her hands up in despair.
"It doesn't matter, you weren't dressed up at the talent show and that's all what got him started," Ginny said smirking.
"Yeah true, shut up!" Lauren said pushing Ginny off her as she began to laugh.
Ginny and Lauren walked along the street just happily talking for what seemed like hours until Lauren noticed her bus stop and suddenly frowned.
"That sure came up quick enough," Lauren said eyeing the bus stop oddly.
"I need to be getting home anyway; you know how far away my house is!" Ginny said with a little laugh.
"Yeah, well I'll see yah, and thanks for everything," Lauren said as she climbed up the bus steps.
"Bye Loz!" Ginny shouted as her bus began to leave.
Ginny smiled to herself as she watched Lauren waving goodbye to her out of the back window. As the bus turned the corner, Ginny ran off to where she had hidden her broom she had used to get into the town.
Ginny ran off into some bushes that were just around the corner and under a pile of leaves and sticks was her old and sometimes faulty Comet 260. Ginny grumbled as she picked it up. She half had wished someone had taken it just so she could go get a new one.
She looked around to make sure that no-one was looking before hoping on it and taking off into the air. She rose off the ground and began to fly just above the trees just to make sure no-one would notice her.
Once she was out of downtown, she flew up higher so she could see how far she had to go. Her house was in distance. She smiled at the sight of her house came closer into view. As she neared her house she lowered her broom before fully stopping it and landing out front of her house.
Ginny opened the door and was about to sneak upstairs when her mother screeched from the kitchen and stood in the doorway not looking to happy either.
"Mum, hey," Ginny said lost for words.
"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN VIRGINIA WEASLEY?" Mrs Weasley yelled at the top of her lungs causing one of her kitchen plates to fall off its shelf and smash onto the floor.
"Out and about, has anyone told you that you look fantastic in the mornings?" Ginny said looking into her mother's anger face.
"VIRGINIA!" Mrs Weasley yelled again.
"I went out shopping mother," Ginny said lowering her head.
"DOWNTOWN? WHERE MUGGLES LIVE?" Mrs Weasley asked screaming.
"With some friends mum," Ginny said coming off the stairs.
"What friends?" she asked calming herself down.
"Just some from school mum," Ginny said heading back upstairs.
"WHAT FRIENDS GINNY?" Mrs Weasley yelled as Ginny climbed one stair.
"Laura and Lauren mum, can I go now?" Ginny said rolling her eyes.
"What for?" she asked again.
"We went shopping for clothes so Lauren could look nice for her boyfrien-," Ginny began.
"Excuse, but were you going to say boyfriend?" Mrs Weasley asked pointing her finger at her daughter.
"Yes but not mine Lauren's," Ginny said about to go upstairs again.
"YOU MINE YOU'VE GOT ONE?" Mrs Weasley asked angrily.
"Yes mum I do and he's wonderful!" Ginny said storming off up to her room.
"You're not going to see him, you hear me?" Mrs Weasley shouted from the bottom of the staircase.
"That's totally barbaric!" Ginny shouted from upstairs.
"NOT IN MY OPINION YOUNG LADY!" Mrs Weasley yelled before continuing on with breakfast.
Ginny slammed her bedroom door behind her and lay down on her bed cuddling her pillow and crying into it. How could her mum ban her from seeing Peter? It was only the start of the holidays and already she had stuffed it up.
*~*~*~*
While Ginny cried off into her pillow, all the way over on the other side of downtown in the middle of many fields was an old-fashioned house made from dark brown wooden boards and covered with red/orange tiles on the roof. And inside that house was where the Boarder family lived.
"I win again!" Tom gloated as he had just one another game of wizard's chess against Rhys who was over.
"I almost had you," Rhys moaned as he watched one of Tom's pieces destroy his.
"Yeah almost not quite," Tom said gloating even more.
"Shut up Tom, I've got company," his brother Matt called from the doorway of the living room.
Tom looked up and saw his brother looking down angrily at his little brother who only had on his boxers. Tom smiled weakly and looked blankly down at his chess pieces. Matt yawned and turned back to his bedroom.
"So jibbed," Tom mumbled watching his brother leave out of the corner of his eye.
"What is? You getting yelled at?" Rhys said smirking.
"No, the fact he gets all the peace and quiet when HIS girlfriend is over but doesn't give it to me in return when mine is over," Tom said slightly annoyed as he packed up the game.
"Cheer up man, I bought lollies!" Rhys said grinning pulling out a packet of muggle lollies from his bag.
"Bonus!" Tom said sarcastically waving his hands around.
"Don't be rude, I think their good," Rhys said taking a red snake from the bag.
"I know you do," Tom said looking at Rhys disgusted, "Thank god for the doorbell," as the doorbell went.
"Give them a lollie! They'll like it!" Rhys yelled from the living room as Tom walked out to answer the door.
Tom rolled his eyes as he reached the door and opened it to see Nick behind it and a huge grin plastered across his face. Tom eyed him as he leant back away from him before yelling out to Rhys, "Did you already feed him a lollie?"
"Feed me what?" Nick asked pushing Tom out of the way and walking through.
Tom shook his head and closed the door before following Nick into the living room. Nick shook Rhys hand before he sat down at the chair grinning as much as he did when he walked in.
"What you so happy-up yourself for?" Rhys asked whilst chewing a lollie.
"I got in guys! I'm now officially a Hogwarts student!" Nick said letting out a girlish squeal after it.
"You sure you didn't give him a lollie?" Tom asked pointing at Nick kicking and screaming like a little girl.
"I must have, but when that is the question," Rhys said trying to sound like a poet.
"You guys are happy for me aren't you?" Nick asked calming down.
"Of course just freaked at the same time," Tom said leaning up against the window.
Nick grinned before jumping up out of his seat and doing some sort of dance which caused his cap to fall off his head. (A/N his cap Lauren: P his loveable cap I just adore that little thing!)
"TOM! CAN IT WOULD YOU?" Matt yelled from down the hallway.
*~*~*~*
Up in his room, Ron lay on his bed listening to the sounds of his mother and his little sister fighting. He let out a long sigh of relief when he heard Ginny's door slam and his mum getting back to work on breakfast. The fight was finally over.
Ron lent up on his elbows on his bed and looked around his room. He sat up and nearly fell back down again when he heard the sound of his mother's voice came from behind his door.
"Ron darling, breakfast," Mrs Weasley said bursting the door open.
"Yeah, right mum, be down in a sec," Ron mumbled and glanced away from his mother's eyes.
"What's wrong dear?" she asked coming over and sitting down on his bed.
"Nothing, there just not much to do here," Ron said scratching his nose.
"Why don't you write a letter to Harry, he'll be glad to hear from you," Mrs Weasley said bending over to see in her son's eyes.
"Harry, want to come over? Fat chance," Ron moaned pulling a face.
"What about that lovely new friend of yours. Emily, was that her name?" Mrs Weasley said sweetly smiling at Ron.
"Emily's mum wouldn't let her, not yet anyway," Ron said sitting up properly.
"Well don't worry, you'll find something to do around here. Come down when you're hungry," Mrs Weasley said kissing his head and leaving his room quietly.
Ron let a loud groan and flopped back onto his bed and began to think. Maybe he could write a letter to Emily, just to see how she was doing. Ron smiled and sat up quickly. He reached over, grabbed some parchment. He dipped his quill in his ink and began to write to Emily.
*~*~*~*
"EMILY, I SAID NOW!" screeched her evil step mother from her comfy chair in the living room.
"Here, sorry," Emily said coming into the room and passing her the cup of coffee she had ordered.
"Sorry isn't good enough child. I didn't take you and your brother in so you could slack around," Amanda said eyeing Emily through her reading glasses.
Emily bowed to her and left the room as quickly as possible. Emily walked around to the staircase and sat on the bottom step with her head in her hand. She couldn't wait for the holidays to be over so she and Paul could back out of here and back to Hogwarts.
At that moment Paul came walking down the stairs and sat on the same step next to Emily. Paul looked over at his sister who seemed to not even notice he was there. He knew what she was thinking, the same thing he was.
"Are you alright?" Paul asked kindly looking over to his sister.
"Hmm," Emily mumbled out the corner of her mouth.
"Was that lingering towards yes or no?" Paul asked again.
"Whatever one Paul," Emily said trying not to get to angry with her brother. At the moment, he was the only person that cared about her.
"Sorry," Paul mumbled turning away from his sister.
"Hey, come here, I'm sorry," Emily said putting an arm around Paul and pulling him closer.
Paul lent on his sister's shoulder and smiled. He wrapped his arm around her waist as they sat on the step and cuddled.
"Couldn't we just run away?" Paul asked looking up to his sister.
"Wish we could but we can't pal, we gotta say here," Emily said slightly angry at having to say that.
"Get up, GET UP!" Amanda yelled bursting in on their moment.
"What for this time?" Paul asked pulling away from his sister.
"You young man didn't finish the gardening I told you to," Amanda said standing before them with her hands on her hips.
"I do so! What didn't I do?" Paul asked angrily.
"Don't you answer back young man!" Amanda said losing her temper.
"But I did everything you asked!" Paul shouted standing himself up.
"With that attitude it looks like no dinner for you!" Amanda yelled pointing her long bony finger at him.
"But I did not do-," Paul started.
"THAT'S IT NO DINNER FOR TWO NIGHTS!" Amanda yelled as loud as she could go.
"Fine not like you could call it a dinner anyway," Paul said about to walk off outside.
"Nah-uh, up to your room and don't come out until the two days are up!" Amanda demanded and pushed him back to the staircase.
Paul rolled his eyes as he climbed the stairs up to his room. Emily watched him sadly go. Great, for two days she was going to be all alone with no-one to talk to or anything. She looked back at Amanda who was smiling evilly at her.
"You best get to work on what he didn't finish," Amanda said sneakily looking at her.
"Yes madam," Emily said and got up off the step and walked outside.
"Then you can clean the shower," Amanda said before walking back to her favourite chair.
Emily clenched her fists. Do this do that, that's all the woman was good for bossing around. Emily looked up at the sky and watched the clouds pass by. She wished she could be as free as they were to do whatever they liked.

There's my 1st chappie on this story. I really hope you did enjoy it and remember to leave a review when you're done! (Hopefully good one's) Well, I must get back to work on my next one. Oh and Lauren, I think I found another guy to add to my collection: D Frodo dude! (Can't spell that weird name of his!)
Well, I can't believe it but this is my second story on these 'series' I'm writing :P I hope you people like it as much as the other, (even though not everyone did) but hey, I hope you like it so enjoy!
