The wonderful Unexpected
Every one always says when life gives you lemons make lemonade but I have always like the more direct saying, when life gives you chances make changes and I totally live by that except I have never gotten any chances to make a difference on anything major, like ever. So it's kind of hard to say you live by something, if you never get a chance to prove it. Also I may have forgotten that when I am at school I dissolve into a shell of a person. When I say that I mean, I don't talk to people much, don't have any friends which is burning me up inside, but yet I still don't want to show the real obnoxious, funny, not so little girl inside and have no idea why.
Anyways I need to get up and do something not just sit here all day watching TV and being a lazy-bum, but like every other Saturday morning I'll still manage to do absolutely nothing.

"It is Saturday leave me alone" I shouted without looking at the perpetrator of my wonderful dream of going to Hogwarts.
They, who turned out to be twelve year old boy and not my brother or parents said in return "Oh so you don't want your Hogwarts letter then sazzy".
With that old nickname came a flood of memories of me and my best friend, my oldest friend by approximately two hours (the guy who just woke me up) and my cousin doing crazy and somewhat reasonable things.
I remembered our awesome underground lair that we built using our badass skills of being able to control the natural elements. I remembered the day when we where five and six and figured out that my given name was Isabela Vena Rose and that I was raised by my aunt and uncle and my supposed aunt and uncle where my parents. That was when Abe my oldest friend had dubbed me sazzy by mixing Samantha Jones Madrid Highlander with Isabela Vena Rose or more like Sam and Izzy but you get the point. I remember the day a little more than a year ago when Abe and my older cousin by year getting there letters and then I remember how my powers like my other cousin had reached a critical point and either had to be monitored at school or temporarily shut down by temporarily erasing my memory, and seeing as they could not take any students early, my memory was shut down of anything and every thing to do with my power. This included the magical world and my friends and almost all of the Information on my cousin.
So for the last year I had been falling apart, without them and that was why I did not want to show the real me at school.
Anyways, after I had remembered all of that I woke to see Abe with his beautiful blond hair and big dreamy emerald green eyes.
Ok maybe I do have a huge crush on him that started when we were two but you can't blame a girl for falling for her oldest friend can you, please say no. Also he is really cute and extremely awesome so on a smidge little impulse, ok an huge one that was so big I could not control my own actions. I leaned up to the guy sitting above me trying to make sure I am alright and after 8 years of friendship and a huge crush (I did not even remember who he was this last year) I kissed him. This was not like a fleeting quick kiss with no return, Oh hell no it took about two seconds for it to turn into a long and passionate kiss on both sides.
When we eventually separated he stated in an elated but extremely surprised voice "so I am guessing that I am not the only one who wanted to do that for 9 years strait".
And me being the total diplomat and truth speaker I am said "yes" in a matter of fact tone "yes you are".
He stuttered out totally startled "you didn't want to do that when we were two." I said if nothing g else but to confuse him "ew no, but i did like you"
It was unfortunately at that moment when he realized that I had totally forgot he existed for a year and leaned in again as he said in a soft and warm tone "your mind is seriously twisted" and then our lips met again.

After we sat there and snogged for about an hour only coming up for breathes of air, before we finally stopped and I said "you know what would be fun"
He raised an eyebrow and said "the one you are thinking of is probably not on the list of millions in my head"
I chuckled and said "most likely not, but I was thinking we should see how long we can keep this from our parents so we can still do the things we used to do like movie nights when we are at home, but yet make it public at school"
he turned on his side as we were both looking at the ceiling in my room from our backs on my bed and said "I don't see how that is fun but sure why not"
I also turned to him and said "well I think we should go to diagon alley to get our supplies."

We flew to England in Fire ghost form, which literally means that all of your molecules turn to fire and you can all of sudden fly at supersonic speeds and through anything.
After we went into diagon alley we headed strait to Gringotts. There, we walked up to the biggest desk and Abe said to the goblin at the desk, "Mrs. Rose would like to make a withdraw and so would I."
The goblin looked up and said in a dry raspy voice "do you Mr. Harris and Mrs. Rose have a key to your vaults" that was when I realized I had no key but luckily Abe had mine and his.
As soon as Abe handed over the keys the goblin handed them to another waiting goblin and said in his raspy little voice "escort Mr. Harris and Mrs. Rose to their vaults."
I wondered if my vault even had any thing in it while we were led to a mine cart, but all thought of that left in the thrill of the mine cart ride which stopped so abruptly I was only stopped from flying away from the cart by magic. Then the goblin got out ad asked for my key before opening my vault.
Inside was a Hughmungus pile of gold smack dad in the middle of the room and in the back was a little case with a toy dog. Being my curious self, I walked around the pile of gold and opened the casing. Just as I touched the little figuring it turned into a real life lioness and that was when I got my Amazonian lioness Hide.

After we had bought all of our school supplies we walked up to Olivanders and Abe left me to go in alone.
The second I walked in a very old and fragile man looked at me and said with a still stony voice even with his age said " I remember selling your parents there first wands like it was yesterday"
Then he walked to one of the shelves piled high with wands and said "this might work"
He handed me a wand but as soon as it touched my fingers the desk cracked and he said definitely not before using a quick repairo and going back into the ceiling high shelves.
He mumbled something that I could only hear because I was an elementalist "maybe, just maybe.
As he came around the corner he said "try this one" and then he pulled a light wood wand with an oak pattern on it out of a red box with a picture of a roaring fire cat or Amazonian lioness. The second my fingers closed around the wand my whole world turned golden as the air around me changed colors.
Then Olivander said once the color had faded "you will face harm but you are destined for a path as great as Harry Potter himself as you follow in the footsteps of Godric Gryffindor your ancestor".
"So what are the specks of the wand and how much"
mr. Olivander who seemed almost like he had been lifted by a trance said "13 in, rosemary with a donated claw from that one" he said pointing to Hide who was by my ankles "and it was Gryffindor who made it not me or my ancestors so for you it is free".
After that I left Olivander's very quickly and came out to see Abe holding a sleek broom and when he saw my questioning face he said "As, a second year i require a second very expensive back up broom" at that I ran up and hugged him al the while smiling and chuckling.
