English is not my language so please tell me if there's some mistake (wich I'm sure there is). I don't own Harry Potter and the new generation, sadly. Hope you like the story.


Chapter One

The one about what all the Weasleys had in common

(and Lily and Dom didn't have)

She ran through the barrier and into platform and saw the 5972 Hogwarts Express. She closed her eyes and smiled brightly. It may sound creepy, but if she somehow had to choose one moment and stay there forever, she would pick platform 9 and 3/4 the first day of school. She loved the smell of the white smoke and the sound of people chatting, looking for friends or saying goodbye to the family, and she loved that everyone around her looked loved.

Her cousin Lily came up beside her and put one arm around her shoulder, the other already on Rose's.

"We're gonna rock this year!" she said squeezing them together.

Rosie and Dom exchanged a funny look over her little cousin's head. Lily said the same every beginning of the year since she was eleven, but that year Dom could somehow feel for the first time that it could actually happen.

With Teddy, Victoire and Molly long gone, that year James, Fred and Roxannne were out of the picture of Hogwarts as well. Now, don't get this wrong, Dom loved her family to pieces, every single one of the crazy mess of her cousins (and out of every one of them, she had always loved James just a little bit better) but they were so amazing, and stunning and...passionate about everything they wanted to do that Dominique just couldn't breath in the middle of them sometimes.

She wasn't like that. She was not as loyal as Hugo, Rose and Victoire, or as honest as Lucy and Molly, or as brave as James, Fred and Louis, or as confident as Ro and Lily. She hadn't got bright hair like everyone else (not red, or blonde, just somewhere in between) not the "Weasley spark" on her (just plain blue) eyes.

She was just sometimes-bitch-sarcastic Dom, the only Weasley in history to be born without freckles.

She was a soft shade of pink in the middle of stunning Gryffindor red.

"Came on!" Lily exclaimed clapping her hands and looking to a group of fifth year boys who were looking back at her "Can't you feel it?"

"Feel what, Lils?"

"I don't know yet, it's just something big. It's all around us"

"Sure it is" said Dom removing herself from Lily's embrace and pinching her softly on the side. "Where I come from, it's called boys. Stop show off your just acquired maturity"

"I wasn't talking about that!" Lily protested trying to make her skirt longer by pushing it down.

Dom couldn't help but laugh along with Rosie. Lily had always been pretty child, but during the last summer she had grown about two inches, cut her red hair pass her shoulders and finally developed an almost-woman body.

"Oh! Stop laughing at me!" she cried in a childest tone trying to pinch both of her cousins at the same time But she was laughing herself. "I didn't mean that! Shut up!" She ruffled Dom's hair and pulled Rosie's curls softly at once.

" Lils. We know you are not like that"

Dom tried to compose herself. The parents were doing their usual routine the boys and Lucy. She turned to face them.

"-try to do that ever again Al I swear-"

"-already packed with your broom and-"

"-use all your new ink the first day Lucy or-"

"- warn you for the last time, Louis, I do not want to see any owls from Hogwarts telling me about firecrackers" Dom's mum was glaring at her little boy with a hand on her hip. For such a beautiful woman, she could look really scary if she wanted to.

"Kid's will be fine, Fleur" Dom's father, Bill, said relaxed. But he shot a warning look to Louis.

"Yeah! Don't you worry Aunt Fleur, I'll look after Hugo!" James exclaimed as he and Fred appeared in the smoke after setting everybody's trunk on the train. They had bought Abeforth Dumbeldore's pub that summer, right after graduation, and a small house right at the end of Hogsmeade.

Bridget Abercrombie, a ginger who for some mysterious reason had been James' girlfriend since their sixth year, slapped the back of his head.

"You shut up James Potter, he had to got that firecrackers somewhere"

"No proves. No blame. babe"

She tried to hit him again, but he was already out of her reach and hiding behind Al's back.

"Hello there big clan!" shouted Lena Abercrombie walking towards them and distracting her sister's attention off James.

Dominique thought about the irony of the greeting, seeing that Lena was followed by at least twelve other people.

There was Luna Scamader with her blonde twins, Lorcan and Lysander, who were a year younger than Dom and part of the family.

And Hannah Longbotton with her daughter Ali.(Neville was probably already in the castle,getting ready for the new year) Hugo's face blushed Weasley red as the sandy haired fifth year smiled at them before turning to speak again with another pretty Ravenclaw girl who was walking next to her, she was in Louis' year, Dom knew.

The Finnigans, of course, Demelza and Seamus, who besides Bryce and Sloane seemed to carry with them Dom's best friend and Gryffindor keeper Julie Wood and her little brother Colin.

"Oliver and Katie called us this morning, they had an important game" they explained at the questioning looks from the adults. Oliver Wood and Katie Bell were both Quidditch pros in their youth and were now training the England team.

Dom saw Lavender Thomas, Lily's chatty best friend who was usually good at getting to Dom's nerves, running towards them and almost falling because of her summer sandals.

"I couldn't find you!" she said hugging Lily for a second before turning to face the rest of the clan "We should go in now or there won't be compartments. I already saw Nott and Malfoy in one Al, and I'm pretty sure that the prefects are already heading to the meeting because I totally saw Clarisse Zabini changing into the school robes and i know that Rose should be the first in there, being the head girl and everything" she paused abruptly, waiting jus enough time to catch her breath before adding "Came on you lot!"

Rose was already saying goodbye to Uncle Ron, her position as Head Girl suddenly remembered as she composed her bandage. Dominique was pretty sure she could hear Ron saying "Give Malfoy junior hell."

He said something like that every year to the three of them (Al, Dom and Rosie) because they were the ones with the pleasure of Scorpius being in their year. Rose laughed, as always, but this time, just for a second, Dom was pretty sure there was no laugh in her eyes.

Dominique's mum rolled her eyes and let Louis finally go, in Beauxbatons there was no such a thing as houses and she was a very active protestant against the Gryffindor-Slytherin rivalry. She turned to face her daughter (giving uncle Ron a scoff in the process)and Dom jumped onto her open arms.

"I'll miss you so much" her mum cried softly "I can believe it's your last year already. Your such a grown up"

"Mum!"

"Oh, I know, I know. Not ashamed my kids in the platform" Fleur kissed her sweetly on her forehead "I love you, Dom"

"I love you too" She said to both of her parents.

"Bye Dom" said James hugging her "Don't ruin the Quidditch team, ok? I know that you can't be as good Capitan as I was but you're good enough"

When she was younger, Dom wanted to be Victoire, she loved her so much that all she seamed to do was trying to do what she was doing. And because of that, because of trying so hard to be her lovely sister, Dom almost missed the one thing she really loved, and Vi didn't.

And so because it was James who had bullied her one whole summer until she finally accepted trying out for Quidditch, she just hugged him tightly as he kissed her on the forehead.


The carriage was empty when they sat down, which was a nice change after being squeezed in a train compartment with her whole family.

Everyone said that the Weasley-Potters ruled the school. And she knew it was true, and knew that it wasn't about their parents, or their looks, or how many of them were. It was about them. About the sweetness, and the caring, and the honor in every single one.

And she had got the red hair and the sweet freckles, but everything else seemed...gone. The determination, it run inside their veins as a part of them: knowing who they were, who they wanted to be.

Like grandpa Weasley, who never ever moved from his little department at the Ministry because he knew that he was happy there. Like Uncle Charlie, who had said "no" to Quidditch because he was sure from the start that he was gonna love dragons more. Like her mother, who found the love of her live at ten and never gave up because she knew even back there that he was her one. Like Aunt George, who had run out the school because he knew his joy was out there even at the age of seventeen.

And all of the Weasley-Potter kids were just like that, Lily knew what made everyone else happy, because them themselves knew it. And because of being always in the middle of a crowd, she knew what she didn't like (like running to Rumania to take care of dragons). But she had no idea of what did make her happy.

"I hope no one else gets in," Lily began to say, but the words had barely left his tongue before someone else appeared through the open carriage doors. He was handsome, with blonde hair, soft bowneyes and her Slytherin's robes already on.

"Hello, Lily and Ali" said the boy "Hello...other people" He glanced at the two other girls in the carriage like he wasn't quite sure were to place them.

"Lavender and Savannah Vane, Lorcan" Lily told him with a glare tat she hoped was saying something like be nice "I'm sure you remember Lavender, you know, my best friend? And Savannah is in you year, Ravenclaw"

"Great for her" said the boy looking back at Lily and Ali "Have you seen Louis?"

"Weasley?" asked Ali Longbotton twisting her Ravenclaw tie. Lorcan nodded " Nope"

"You sure? He is missing"

"Haven't seen him."

"What about you, Little Lil?" he insisted, using the most loathed pet name James had for her.

"It's Lily."

"I know. Have you seen your cousin? The blonde one?"

"No"

" You have grown" he said suddenly scanning her body "no Little Lil anymore I see. Anyway, are you sure about Louis?"

Lily sighed heavily, trying to not loose her little patience and crossing her arms around her chest self conscious.

"I'm positive, Now go"

"Nice" he answered stepping out of the carriage "See you around"

And he was gone

"Git" Lavender murmured still glaring at the door "I wonder how Sloane Finnigan can date him"

"She can't" answered Savannah surprising Lily, Ali's friend had been pretty quiet the whole train "She's dating the one in Ravenclaw, not him. Zander is actually really nice"

Lavender just shook his head. "They can't be that different if they look-"

She was suddenly cut as a beautiful girl opened the door with force and took a seat. Lily arched her eyebrows in surprise.

"Um. Hi, Dom. I thought you were with Rosie and Al."

"Albus Potter is a jerk." she said blushing with angry.

"Why?".

"He's a git," stated the blond. "He drag with him Scorpius and Nott"

Before Lily could reply, the door opened again and Rose and Julie burst into the carriage.

"Dominique" started Rosie looking a lot like Aunt Hermione when she was about to start an argument " Don't you ever think of running off like that again and let us there with them"

"Oh, stop it . I'm surprised you two could notice anything while talking to our jerk of a cousin and Malfoy"

"Dominique Gabrielle Weasley" said the redhead firmly, pushing her curls away from her face "What did I tell you about being a bitch around people who don't understand that you're always a bitch?"

"I'm not always a bitch. I just hate bloody Nott"

"You hate everyone" said Lily trying to end the argument.

"I don't hate everyone" All the other girls looked a her doubtful expressions "I do not."

"Whatever" snapped Julie making herself comfortable "Can we please just drop it?"

Lily agreed and moved against the window to let Rosie sit between her and Ali.

And there she was again.

Squeezed by her family.
