Hello,

This is my first story after a major writers block, so I am really exited. In this first chapter there are a couple of lines, that I have had to copy directly from the original books. This is because, some of this chapter takes place in the 19 years later part. But besides those few lines of dialog it's all my own writing.

Enjoy, Kir

"Rosie darling come on, or we're going to be late." Her mother yelled up the stairs.

"Just a minute, I'm just making sure that I have got everything packed." She yelled back.

"I thought you packed several days ago" His dad said standing in the doorway to her room, where she was lying on the floor with her suitcase open. Everything in it was neatly tucked in place, with her books taking up almost half of the room.

"I did. I'm just double checking." She said biting her lip as she counted her uniforms again.

"I don't think that you can call it double checking when it's the eleventh time Rose." Her brother Hugo said as he passed by her room on his way to the stairs.

"There is nothing wrong with making sure!" She yelled after him as he skipped down the stairs and ran out into the car. "I just want to make sure that I don't forget something." She looked up at her father with her brown doe-eyes.

"Don't you worry Rosie." He said as he went over and gave her a one armed hug. " If I know you right, and who would know you better, than the man who raised you, then you haven't forgotten a thing. And even if you have then your mother and I can always just mail it to you." He smiled down at her and she replied with a half-hearted smile. "See, thats the spirit. There is no need to be worried you're going to Hogwarts, it's going to be great." At his words her smile grew to a huge grin. Her father had always been able to cheer her up, he always knew just what to say to make her feel better.

When they arrived at the station Rose had demolished into a bundle of nerves. During the in tire ride she had been biting her lips and ranted about how they would never make it in time, even though they had plenty of time. In her head she was constantly going back and forth between wanting to rush everybody so that she wouldn't be late, and simply stopping up and refusing to go. Anyone could see that she was incredibly nervous but no one dared mention it to her in the fright of being on the receiving end of her vicious temper.

They finally got to the platform about 15 minutes before the train was going to leave. The air was thick, warm and almost impossible to see through do to the steam coming from the train.

"I can't see them anywhere." Rose said trying to look through the smog around at the mass of people surrounding the family.

"I'm sure that we'll find them." Her mother said placing a hand on Roses shoulder. They started moving through the crowd.

"This is so unfair." Moped Hugo as he had done the entire ride here. "I want to go too. Why do I have to wait two whole years?"

"It's not that long" Hermione said turning to look at Hugo. "And Lily will be here with you to play. And remember once you go to Hogwarts you will have to do homework and go to classes." She gave him a reassuring smile "Trust me two years is not that long"

"Yeah, I suppose" He looked down. "I just really want to go now."

"I know buddy" Ron said "I had five older brothers who went before me, and every summer they would come home and talk about how grey it was. How they had all made new friends and-"

"Ron!" Hermione smacked her husbands arm "We're trying to cheer him up-" she continued in a more hushed voice, before she was cut of by Rose.

"I SEE THEM!" Rose ran towards Albus, leaving her trolley to her father. She beamed up at Albus as she reached him. He was her very best friend. They had grown up together, and now they were of to Hogwarts. Even though it was scary, exiting and a major change in her life it all seemed a bit easier with Albus here with her.

"Hi" He said. Their fathers had started lifting their luggage and owls onto the train.

"Careful, please don't squash Archimedes." Rose said even though they didn't seem to have heard her as they were to consumed with their own conversation. Archimedes was her owl. She had gotten him two weeks ago when her and Albus' families had been in Diagonally to get their supplies for Hogwarts. When she and Albus had entered the store she had spotted Archimedes immediately. He was a big Boreal owl. He was incredibly grumpy and rude towards almost everyone except her, but she had loved him from the moment she laid her eyes on him. Albus had gotten an owl that day to. Taking after his father he had gotten a snowy owl. He had called her Agatha.

"So are you excited?" Albus asked as she looked back at him.

"Yeah" Then she lowered her voice and looked seriously at him. "Quite nervous as well. I mean what if I am rubbish at school and magic? Or what if it is't as amazing as mom and dad have described and we end up hating it? Or what if we get into Slytherin and everybody is really disappointed?" At this looked down and started shuffling his feet. Rose had known him long enough to know what it meant. "You're actually really worked about that aren't you?"

"It's just…" He continued looking at his shoes "James has been teasing me about it the whole week."

"You shouldn't let him get to you Al" She said putting a hand n his arm.

"I know…" He looked up at her "But what if he's right? What if I do get into Slytherin and everyone hates me for it?"

"Albus…" She looked at him "Nobody is going to hate you no matter which house you get into. And besides I don't think that you are actually going to get into Slytherin. I mean you just don't seem like the type." She smiled at him trying to lighten his spirits.

"Yeah I guess" He smiled back at her. Their moment was broken though by Ron's voice speaking to Hugo and Lily.

"If you don't get into Gryffindor we will disinherit you, but no pressure." Rose and Albus looked at him solemnly.

"He doesn't mean it." Their mothers said, but Rose still couldn't quite shake the tense feeling his words had brought. She looked over at Albus and she could see that he felt the same way: This was not something to be joked about.

"Look who it is" Harry said and nodded his head in the direction of a small family. Rose didn't recognize them, but she figured that it was probably the Malfoys, by the look that had just crossed her fathers face. Her first thought was that they all looked a bit stiff and a bit to perfect, like a family taken out of a magazine. They were all three platinum blonde and quite pale. Both the father and son had their hair pushed back and the mother had her hair pine up in an elegant up-do. As the boy turned around she felt a bit confused. She had expected him to look like her father had always described the Malfoys to her: stern, mean, rude, without care for others, but he just looked nervous and scared like her and Albus.

"So that's little Scorpius," She heard her father say under his breath "Make sure you beat him in every test, Rosie. Thank God you inherited your mother's brains."

"Ron, for heaven's sake," She could hear her mother scolding her father behind her. "Don't try to turn them against each other before they've even started school!"

"You're right, sorry," said Ron but he then bent down and added to her: "Don't get too friendly with him, though, Rosie. Granddad Weasley would never forgive you if you married a pureblood."

Scorpius, she had never heard a name like that before. She liked it though. She looked over to see if she could spot the boy again but he must have gotten on the train cause he wasn't there anymore. Behind her she could hear James ranting about catching Teddy and Victoire snogging. James was probably the only one who didn't already know that they were together. Almost the entire family had had bets on how long it was going to take, before they finally admitted their feelings to each other and started dating. Lily had won.

"It's nearly eleven, you'd better get on board" she heard her once Harry say. She turned to her mother and hugged her tightly around the waist.

"Now you be good Rosie," Said her mother "And we will write to you, as much as you want. Remember to do your homework and don't get into any trouble. And don't duel anyone. Okay?" Rose nodded. "Good" Then with a kiss to her hair and a last tight hug Hermione let go. Rosie then went over to her father and gave him a tight farewell hug. He swung his big arms around her and gave her one of his very special bear hugs that he reserved only for her and Hugo. He lifted her up so her ear was close to his mouth and then he whispered so quietly that Hermione wouldn't be able to hear it:

"Now forget everything your mother just said. It's alright to get into trouble, just get Roxanne, Fred and James to help you out of it, or Dominique." He added as an after thought. Dominique was another one of Rose cousins. She was the same age as James, and the little sister of Victoire. "It's completely alright to duel, but only if you win. Avoid Peeves he's a nasty bugger." Then he hugged her extra tight so she felt like she couldn't breathe.

"Dad, you're crushing me"

"Oh sorry Rosie"

She smiled at him as he put her back down on the ground. Then she turned to Hugo.

"Bye Hu, don't torture them too much ok?" She gave him a hug. "I'll write to you."

"It's ok sis. To be honest It might be fun to have you out of the house" He looked up at her with a wide grin. "I won't have to fight you over the last piece of bacon anymore."

"You're an idiot." Then she let him go and ruffled his hair "See you all at christmas." Then she boarded the train, just as the doors all along the train started slamming shut. Albus jumped in after her. They noticed a lot of other students staring at their families, now that Rose and Albus looked around.

"Why is everybody staring?" Albus demanded.

"Don't let it worry you," Said Ron "It's me, I'm extremely famous" Rose laughed along side Albus Hugo and Lily. She felt a rush of excitement as the train set into motion. She sent her parents a last smile, and waved as their faces slowly faded into crowd, before disappearing entirely. The Hogwarts express rounded a corner, and the platform disappeared from view. She was off to Hogwarts.
