Everything is happening so fast... Chris told me that I was frikkin stressing him out because of all this shit going on. That's the end of that boyfriend-girlfriend status. But if he thinks going out with me is stressful maybe he should try being me. If you don't understand, which you probably don't since all I'm doing is ranting and raving, let me take time to explain. My name is Haley Johnson and my mother just died six weeks ago. All of my friends are treating me like I'm helpless, which is one of the top things on my list of things that I can't stand. I know they just care about me, but I don't like feeling this way, and I can't help feeling this way. I just want to be alone most of the time.
I am staying with my best friend Cari and family. The social people and whatnot are shipping me off like I'm an object; off I am to England to live with my biological twin brother, I am. I don't even know what his name is! Or anything else! How do they know if I want to stay with them, and if they knew that I had biological family somewhere, then why didn't I just go to them instead of being adopted, but I'm much happier where I was with my mom. I am staying with him and his adoptive family before school starts.
Cari's dad said that the school was an exclusive boarding school and they would not tell them anything about it, but that's probably because he's a muggle. I am almost positive its Hogwarts, well more like I'm praying it's Hogwarts.
I am attending Hogwarts for my last year, which sounded good to say because I had heard so much about it from my mom, well before she passed away. I have been home schooled for magic for the past years from my mom, she had graduated top in class, well actually she tied with my biological mom, and that's about all I knew about my biological mother.
I always knew that I could have siblings somewhere because I was adopted and all, so this fact didn't bother me, and I just wanted to get away from everything, so this move to England wasn't too much of a bad thing... I hope. This move could even be a fresh start, a major fresh start, I've heard some majorly bad things about the English and their teeth…
I was still rather numb about my adoptive mother's death, and I felt like everything was gone and I was just an empty person. I wanted to start fresh and live life again. I hadn't eaten in a while, but I didn't feel the need to eat, nor the need to live.
I stepped off the train and took the first whiff of England, nothing out of the ordinarily smeliing. And my first sight was of a boy with black hair who wore all black, looked rather morbid, like me. He had piercing green eyes and was staring at me. I assumed he was waiting for me and was my twin. How I knew? Let's just say I took a leap of faith.
This guy looked nothing like me, we both had black hair, but my black hair had been dyed because I hated my auburn hair, I doubt his was dyed also. I gave him a small smile, and he returned it,
"So what's your name?" He asked in a small voice.
"Haley Johnson, and yours?" I asked. He looked rather perplexed at the question, like he had never been asked. I noticed a little late that he had a lightning bolt shaped scar on his forehead, It all hit me.
"Harry Potter."
"While you live under my roof you will do whatever we ask." Uncle Vernon bellowed, although I didn't know why because I was sitting right in front of him.
"No need to yell Vern." I said coolly, but a vein popped out of his temple, which was oh-so-not-cool!
I knew that I was being very mean and disrespectful, but at this point in life, I didn't care.
"While you live under this roof you will refer to me as sir!" he shouted, already out of breath from being out of shape.
"Fine, but I asked for the news, not the weather" I replied referring to the moisture he had spat onto me, and I took my time to wipe it off.
Harry couldn't quit chuckling next to me, so Dudley repeatedly flicked him in the ear as a sign of discipline, but I knew that Dudley was a sissy just from the car ride so I doubt his fat fingers could do much harm, which made me laugh, so Harry began to keep laughing.
Petunia sat there glaring at me, and dinner was served after a silence. At a very early bedtime Harry and I were sent up after an almost totally bland meal.
The room was rather small, and I have never, ever, in my seventeen years of life had to share a room with anyone, this may be a little rough!
"Do you want any help unpacking?" Harry asked
"Uhhmm, sure, I guess." Harry grabbed things from the trunk and put them away, he had unpacked a lot of things of my style, such as shirts of my favorite bands, Blink 182, The Used, Green Day, I think you get the picture. Plus, I had a lot of Hurley and Quiksilver shirts. And once Harry got to my thongs he dropped it and I guess he felt rather uncomfortable, because he informed me that he was going to quit packing.
"Oh come on, Guys are supposed to like those!"
"Not my sisters'!" This brought sort of an awkward moment, I hadn't ever been referred to as a sister.
"Oh right"
"I was so surprised when I found out I had a sister, nobody's ever said anything about it."
"Well I was adopted and had no idea who my real mother was, so for all I knew I could've been a quintuplet! And I remember my mom told me my biological mother -our mother- Lily was so afraid of me dying and whatever, so its not like I was very well known." I said sheepishly, only repeating what my mother had told me in my memory.
"Why was she scared?" Harry asked wrinkling his nose
"Well you were born first, and If I hadn't come out exactly when I did and not a second later I would've had a deprivation of oxygen and what not, so I had to live in the hospital for like a year. I don't know all the details, though."
"Couldn't someone've explain this to me!"
"Oh come on, you're the great Harry Potter! And look around, hun, not really anyone to explain anything."
Harry looked down, and I got confused, "Did I say something? What's wrong?"
"Well nothing, its just that sometimes being famous isn't all its cracked up to be."
"Really?" I said lifting up an eyebrow in disbelief.
"Well everyone thinks I can do anything and I'm not afraid, but I am, and everything I deal with now, isn't something everyone has to, like being badmouthed in the newspaper! Sometimes I just don't know if I can handle it!"
"Well now you have me around and you can have an unconditional friend to talk to, whenever you need me, I'm here, I promise. How's that sound?"
"That sounds absolutely amazing."
