AN: This is set eleven years after 'Colors of a Rainbow'. Harry, Ginny,
Ron, Hermione, Draco, Lavender, Lee and Cho have not yet told their
children of the prophecy, fearing that they will make their decision too
soon. So, without further ado, here is 'Feelings of a Soul.'
Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Harry Potter. I DO own Aubrey Potter, Kevin Malfoy, Angel Jordan and Jessica Weasley, along with Snape's children.
Aubrette Judith Potter (or Aubrey as most called her) lay down upon the small raft she had pushed into the river.
She breathed in the warm summer air and let out a contented sigh.
Sometimes she just had to get away…Away from the racket and din of her family and friends.
Not that she didn't love them, but with six younger siblings and another on the way, who could blame her?
Aubrey rolled over and started reading the muggle book she had gotten before coming to stay at the Burrow.
She was just getting into it when a flutter of wings overhead distracted her.
Aubrey looked up and saw an official looking gray barn owl flying her way.
Her heart leapt with excitement when she saw the envelope clutched in its claws.
As soon as the owl landed on the raft, she grabbed the letter.
With a hoot of annoyance the owl ruffled its feathers and flew off.
Aubrey looked down at the thick parchment cover.
In emerald green ink it was addressed to 'Ms. A. Potter, Raft on the Burrow Stream, The Burrow.'
Ripping it open Aubrey scanned the letter and let out a whoop of joy.
She quickly paddled to shore and pulled the raft up onto the bank.
After making sure it was secure she took off through the small woods and field, dodging garden gnomes and nearly running over her little cousin Joey, Ron's three year old son.
Throwing open the door to the Burrow Aubrey raced in screaming "I got my letter! I got my letter!"
There was the sound of stampeding feet and soon half the Burrow was standing in front of her.
Ginny Weasley, Aubrey's mother, elbowed the way to the front of the crowd, giving her daughter a huge hug.
"Oh, dear! You're the first one-"
"MUM! DAD! I GOT MY HOGWARTS LETTER!"
The front door flew open and Aubrey's cousin, Jessica Marcia Weasley, ran in, her face shining with utter joy and happiness.
"So did I!" Aubrey screeched.
The two girls hugged.
Jessica and Aubrey were as close as can be.
"Our letters came! We're going to Hogwarts!" Two boys rushed in, Kevin Giles Malfoy and Angelo Parker Jordan.
Besides Jessica, Angel and Kevin were Aubrey's best friends.
"Well, this calls for a celebration!" Ron Weasley, Aubrey's uncle and Jessica's father, bellowed.
"I say we take the letter receivers out to eat! At the Leaky Cauldron! We can stay a few nights there and go shopping!" Lee Jordan, Angel's father, cried.
"Well, normally I would say no but since they've gotten their letters…I don't know. What do you say, Harry?" Ginny asked her husband.
"Of course! Come on kids, run up and pack some cloths for a couple nights! I'll even let us go on the Knight Bus!" The four friends raced upstairs.
"Daddy? Can I go to Hogwarts too?" Sophia, Aubrey's five year old sister asked.
"In a couple of years, pumpkin." Harry told her, smiling and ruffling the brunette's wild hair.
