(A/N : I'm really sorry about the short-ness. I hope that you like it though. Please review and tell me what you think, and maybe give me some tips on how to help my writing. This isn't my best, but, I got a spurt of the moment idea and I atleast wanted to get the first chapter up.)

Harry looked out across the street

Harry looked out across the street. The huge truck was filled with boxes and lamps and couches. Someone new was moving in, finally! He hadn't seen any of the new people yet though, he really hoped that this wasn't just some retailers' idea to get the house sold. He needed somebody, anybody. He hasn't said a word all week of summer. Just a nod or a grunt. He'd even be happy to have Draco Malfoy move in. At least they would insult each other.

Just then a car pulled up across the curb and two adults stepped out. They were a good-looking couple, at least he though that till he saw her. She was unlike any girl that he has ever seen. With long bright red hair down to her elbows and side bangs swooping across her forehead. Her white dress wrapped around her body in the wind. She put her hand over her eyes and squinted right at him. He flung him self onto the floor, hiding. "What was that boy?" He heard Uncle Vernon yell. He decided not to answer. He peeked his head over the window frame and continued to look. Just when he was getting comfortable and the movers were pulling away Aunt Petunia came up from behind him, shoving a plate of cookies into his hand.

"Bring these to them, tell them that we hope that they can come over for dinner when they get settled in." She pushed him toward the door and slammed it behind him. Nervous and a little sweaty Harry walked across the street and up his new neighbors front path. Just as he was about to knock on the front door, it opened. The girl bumped into him, causing him to drop the plate and break it. Oh no. He thought.

"Oh my god! I'm so sorry!" She said, bending down and pulling her dog back. "I didn't mean to bump into you, I wasn't even looking where I was going… oh God! I'm so sorry!" Harry looked up from picking up the cookies and pieces of plate and was yet again caught of guard by her beauty. She smiled at him apologetically and opened the door and shoved the dog inside. "Oh and your mother must have made these for us, oh no!" She hit her self on the forehead. Harry watched her bend her knees and help him. Once everything was cleared up, she opened the door and told him to come inside.

"MOM! I'll take Molly in a second. Our new neighbor here…" She trailed off looking at him with a face that said: what's your name?

"Harry." He said, quickly.

"Harry was brining over some cookies and I bumped into him outside. We just cleaned it up; I hope you don't mind that he's here for five minutes. I need to change."

"Sure sweetie. Harry darling, come in here, to the kitchen, I'll give you a glass of water." Harry looked at the girl running up the stairs and then walked toward the kitchen.

The girl's mother had the same long red hair that she did. She had it up in a bun and was wearing jean shorts and a tank top. "It was so nice of you to bring these over, thank you very much, even if Adelaide did spill them all. Now have a seat and I'll fetch you a glass." She took the spilled cookies and broken glass form Harry's hands and put them in big garbage bag beside the sink. "Now if only I could find a glass…"

"Oh, don't worry. I'm fine." Harry said, putting up his hand, signaling for her to stop. She looked at him and shook her head.

"It's very hot outside, I can't let you go back out there without a glass of water." Just when she turned back around Adelaide came into the room smiling. Harry looked at her again, this time noticing the navy blue shorts and the beige t-shirt with a picture of 'The Beatles' on it. He nodded his head and smiled at her. "Addy, would you like a drink?" The mother said.

"Yes please, then me and Harry can go walk Molly." Harry took in a breath at this; he was going to walk her dog with her. "Oh, I'm sorry, do you not like dogs? I'll walk her and then maybe we could hang out after?" Adelaide said.

"Oh no. I love dogs, I just didn't think that you would want me to walk with you, we only just met." He replied, mentally smacking him self for sounding so stupid.

"AH HA!" The mother said, turning around and grinning holding up two glasses. "I FOUND 'EM!"

Adelaide laughed alongside Harry, and then looked at him. "But how else are we going to become friends Harry?" She asked, raising her eyebrow.

"Well, that's a good start I guess." He said. Well at least he wasn't sounding as dumb now.

"I hope tap is fine Harry, we don't have the cooler set up yet, since we don't even know where it is." The mother said.

"Yes, that's fine." He retorted smiling. He liked them, he liked them a lot. Just then he remembered. "My Aunt is wondering if, when you're all settled in, if you would like to come over for dinner?"

"Well I'll have to talk to Derek about it, but it sounds just lovely." The mother said.

"Great. I'm sorry but what's your name?" Harry said blushing. Adelaide smiled and Harry and answered for her mother.

"Charlotte, but she likes everyone to call her Charlie." She laughed. Harry smiled and grabbed the cup from Charlie's hands.

"Thanks, Charlie." He said, chuckling the slightest bit.

Once their water was finished and thanks went around Harry and Adelaide left the house and headed down the street.

(A/N : Once again, sorry about the lenght. Well, review. This isn't my best, keep that in mind . REVIEW!)
