Chapter 1: Meeting

It was a beautiful sunny day, the first actual summer day of the year. The zoo was packed with many people, especially many children who were currently on field trips. Lily was gazing at the Python. She looked around to see her mum and dad talking in low voices around the other reptiles. She turned back to the Python curiously. For reasons she couldn't understand she could feel an odd sort of comfort around this Python. Although Lily couldn't exactly speak to it, it was almost as if she could feel its emotions. She could sense some pretty strong feelings of sadness and loneliness. The feelings were strong around the python but it didn't quite fit. She moved closer to the Python and the emotions would feel more distant. She turned her head and her gaze caught a young boy who seemed to be about her age. He was walking alone barely stopping to look at any of the snakes. The emotions she felt grew stronger and she because curious urious as to why he was alone.

"Hi my name's Lily" The small redheaded girl said happily. The boy just stared at her. "You don't talk much do you? Well that's okay. I'm eight years old, my daddy and mum are all the way by the smaller snakes. They don't seem to like the big ones." She shrugged.

"I don't want to be mean, but why are you talking to me?" He asked eyeing her warily.

"Why wouldn't I?" She asked.

"Well no one ever talks to me. They just pretend I'm not there" He said with a look on sadness on his face.

"Well those people are all loonies. What are you doing here all alone?" Lily asked. "Where are your mum and dad?" She asked right after.

"You ask a lot of questions." The boy answered making her smile.

"My family says the same thing" Lily said happily. "I can't help if I'm curious"

"I'm with my school" Jesse said pointing to the group of kids over staring at the large snake in awe.

"School? Oh…you must be a muggle" Lily replied excitedly.

"A what?" Jesse asked confused. She looked at him with wide eyes.

"Lily!" A tall redheaded woman yelled from far. "Lily where are you?" she yelled again

"Uh oh" Lily said just as the tall redheaded woman caught sight of Lily.

"Lillian Luna Potter what have I told you about wandering off by yourself?" Her mum scolded. Her hands were on her hips and her red hair like a wildfire. Her stomach was swollen and it looked fairly large. "You scared your father and I! Oh Merlin your dad. Harry she's over here!" Her mum said to a man with raven black hair. Next to him was a girl with raven black hair and chocolate brown eyes.

"Lily what have your mother and I told you about running off like that?" Harry scolded just like her mum. The girl who looked about 6 nudged his arms. He looked down and with a smile picked her up.

"But mum and dad I wanted to talk to my new friend." Lily said pointing to the boy who was watching her family peculiarly. There was something off about them, that much he knew. When she said this Harry and her mum took notice of the small brown haired boy.

"Oh hello there, I didn't see you there. I'm Ginny Potter, what's your name?" Ginny asked a warm smile on her face.

"I'm Jesse" He said shyly.

"Jesse! This is my mum and dad." Lily said happily pointing to each parent.

"I'm Harry, as you could've guessed" Harry said with a smile.

"This is my little sister Melanie she's 7"Lily said excitedly.

"Umm Hi" was all Jesse could manage.

"Oh look Candy! Daddy please, I hungry" begged Melanie. She looked into his eyes.

"Those eyes, out of everything for her to inherit it had to be your eyes." Harry whined, "I could never say no to them" Harry added giving a little kiss to Ginny.

"eww" said Melanie

"I think its cute" Lily said

"I agree with Lily" added Ginny as she kissed him one more time. Harry headed off to get her candy.

"Mum look!" squeaked Melanie as she pointed to a cart on the far end of the exhibit. It was a hotdog cart.

"Your daddy is going to get you some candy." Her mum said. Mel looked at her and pouted.

"But I really hungry" she said rubbing her belly.

"You remind me so much of your uncle" Ginny murmured, "Okay Mel let's get your mind off of food for a bit. Lily, Jesse we'll be right back. Lily stay where I can see you okay" She said as she left with Melanie.

"Your parents are nice." Jesse said enviously.

"Yes I love my mummy and daddy." She answered. They smiled at each other.

"Well look here. Lawrence's found himself a girlfriend" said a boy with a nasty sneer. He was surrounded by 3 other boys whom all looked big.

"She's too pretty for you" one of the boys said.

"leave her alone" Jesse said angrily.

"Why?" the boy said before pushing her.

"Leave her alone!" Jesse yelled.

"Make me!" The leader said as his friends circled them. He pushed her again, but this time she fought back. She elbowed him. This made one of the boys push her onto the ground.

"Stop!" He yelled. A gust of wind enveloped him and soon all three boys were falling backwards and sliding away. Jesse helped Lily up, both of their eyes wide. Jesse's eyes widened when he saw his teacher running to the three crying boys.

"Jesse Lawrence what is going on here?" Ms. Valentine yelled as she grabbed him and pulled him a little away from Lily. Her dad came running with the cotton candy in one hand.

"Lily what happened?" Harry asked as he reached them. Ginny who had witnessed most of the end of the attack came running with Melanie in her arms.

"Those boys attacked us and Jesse stopped them. Daddy he's a weird muggle." Lily said shocked. Ginny arrived and looked at Harry.

"Lily are you okay?" Ginny asked hugging Lily close. "Harry I think you might want to call dad. Jesse just did an amazing display of accidental magic." Ginny said, "It all happened so fast, one second Lily was on the floor and the next Jesse had pushed all of those boys without moving." Harry's eyes widened. "Lily are you hurt?" Ginny asked quickly checking her daughter. After finding a small bruise she put the story together on her own, "I think I'm going to have a little talk with those boys" She said a fire in her eyes.

"Ginny stop!" Harry said. "get your dad, I'll be back" He said hoping to calm her down before rushing to Jesse who at the moment was being interrogated by his teacher.

"Jesse please don't lie to me." His teacher yelled "I have been tolerant enough because of your mom, but please don't lie to me"

"Excuse me miss." Harry said sweetly, his charming smile radiating. "I believe my wife and I saw what happened. From what she said these boys were bullying my daughter and him." Harry said taking her away from Jesse. Lily ran up to him. For a second they smiled at each other. Ginny walked to Harry and shook hands with his teacher.

"Don't worry mummy and daddy will fix it" Lily said placing a hand on his back. Jesse just stared at the boys he had hurt. They were all sitting on the floor holding onto a different bruise. A minute later another man with red hair balding appeared with a few other men to talk to his teacher. After a bit of talking between the balding man, Harry and Ginny they all separated.

"Good news Jesse, you're off the hook." Harry said James and Melanie by his side along with Ginny.

"Are you okay Jesse?" Ginny asked

"Why am I so different?" Jesse asked "I am a freak" he whined.

"No you're not" Lily said harshly. Ginny nudged Harry who looked at her oddly. He sighed and gave in.

"Jesse why don't you walk with me. Come on" Harry said pulling Jesse to walk with him. Ms. Valentine was still talking to the other men.

"Mum what's dad going to talk to Jesse about?" Lily asked, her emerald eyes begging for answers.

"oh its nothing for you to worry about" Her mum stated. Lily stared at her pleading with her mum. "Those eyes" Ginny grumbled, "Okay why don't we check?" Ginny said with a mischievous look on her face. She pulled out two ears attached by a string. "Here honey take this" she said before sneaking towards Harry and Jesse. Lily stared at the ear a bit grossed out, while Melanie poked it making it twitch.

"Eww" both girls shreaked. Ginny looked at them and ushered for them to quiet down. The ears immediately disappeared when she placed it down.

"Okay girls. Listen carefully now" Ginny said with a mischievous hint in her eye. Suddenly Harry's voice echoed through ear.

"Jesse how old are you?" Harry asked

"I'm 8 turning 9 in a couple of months" Jesse said

"Have you ever done something like this before? For example have you ever done something that seemed impossible or like magic?" Harry asked carefully. Jesse thought carefully.

"Well once I was walking with my mum and I saw a lollypop. My mum was walking too fast with me. I really wanted it and next second I had a new lollypop." Jesse said. At this Harry's eyes widened and he smiled.

"Jesse has your mum ever done anything weird?" Harry asked

"No, she's too sick." Jesse said slowly

"What about your dad?" Harry asked

"He left me when I was little" Jesse replied. Harry looked at him sympathetically.

He pulled Jesse closer to him and said, "Jesse you're not weird, trust me. In about 3 years you will understand. Just try not to hurt anyone okay" Harry said with a smile. Jesse laughed with him and promised not to.

"Okay lets get back to the women before they do something crazy." Harry said. Immediately Ginny scrambled to get the ears back and put them away. Just as she put them in her purse Harry walked to them.

"What's that Ginny?" Harry asked pointing to the string hanging out of her purse. Ginny looked at him with her most innocent look.
"Nothing" Ginny answered. "Oh look Grandpa." She said changing the subject. Immediately Lily and Melanie perked up and looked. Sure enough the balding man walked over to them.

"I knew I saw my favorite grandkids! Lily and Mel come give your granddad a hug" Lily's grandfather said as both girls ran into his arms. He smiled and looked towards Jesse.

"Ahh so you must be Jesse. Not to worry son the problem has been handled. The name's Arthur Weasley. Well Jesse you best be getting back to your class. They will be

leaving soon to go home." Arthur told Jesse with a smile. Jesse looked at his class who seemed to be gathering up sure enough ready to leave.

"Bye Jesse I hope I see you soon. Write to me!" Lily said hugging him.

"I will, bye Lily. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Potter" Jesse said as Ginny hugged him.

"Take care Jesse" Harry said as he walked away with Ginny, Lily and Mel. Jesse watched them walk away towards the exit with Arthur.

"Wait Lily! Where do I write to?" Jesse yelled. She turned around and smiled warmly at him.

"To Lily Potter of course" She said laughing. Then she was gone leaving a confused Jesse behind.
