'Why are you always on his side' screamed Bea Potter at her mother.
'Well young lady your brother is right…'
'You always think that.' Bea muttered.
'…Do you want to interrupt me further?' Mrs Potter sternly looked at the defiant look on her daughters face. ' Before you shouted at me I was going to take your side. However seems you don't want your brother accompanying you to Diagon Alley and you've made that very clear. He will be going with you.' Mrs Potter now calmly replied to the look of the growing annoyance on Bea's face.
'hummm' Bea stormed out of the kitchen.
Bea and her mother never saw eye to eye when it came to Bea needing James to protect her and look after her whenever and wherever she went. She found it damn right annoying that her mother under estimated her and constantly found ways to prove she was "too young" for going out shopping, swimming even to the library alone, not that she went their often.
'Look James,' Bea said. 'I know you were planning on meeting up with your friends from Hogwarts today. But we need to persuade mum to let us go separately! I only want to be in Diagon Alley for what 10 minutes and you want to spend the day there, and if I'm on my own when I get home mum will rip your head off. Simple.'
'Bea?!' James said faking shock ' I can not believe you would suggest such a thing.'
'James don't pretend we don't ditch each other normally. I just want to get my robes and be gone. Can't you speak with her.' Bea pleaded ' you're her favourite.'
'Well…'
'Anyway its your fault mum and I fell out this time!'
Bollocks James thought.
' James can you please talk to mum, this way she wont be constantly owling me when I get to Hogwarts, and you for that matter, checking that you're looking after me and I'm not getting into trouble and getting to my lesson on time. You could say this would be like a practise for my independence at Hogwarts.'
' But you're not independent at Hogwarts. You have teachers looking out for you.' James retorted.
'Please James, just say something like that.'
James
James walked calmly toward his mother. Thinking positively to himself that she would agree with whatever he said to her, because he was her favourite as Bea had said earlier.
'Look James, if your sisters put you up to changing my mind and letting her go to Diagon Alley alone, then neither of you are going!' Evelyn Potter was beginning to get annoyed with her children.
'Mum, look. I was just thinking… erm… well.'
'Spit it out James!'
'Well what I was thinking is that perhaps it was a good idea. Bea's idea that is obviously. It might do her some good going out alone. After all I'm not going to be with her constantly at Hogwarts.' James hastily replied.
'I see your point James… I don't know why you didn't say this to start with. This would have stopped that terrible argument.' Evelyn replied.
'Bea. Bea!' James shouted 'BEA!'
Bea
Bea walked slowly into the lounge from the stairway.
'Did you call me James?' Bea asked.
'Yeah I did. Look mum and I have talked and she thinks it's a good idea that we go to Diagon Alley alone and come back when we're both ready.' James said.
'Bea you know I don't like fighting with you. I am sorry that I did. I just thought it was for the best that your brother was with you.'
Diagon Alley
James met up with Sirius, Remus and Peter. His best friends since their meeting at Hogwarts the previous year.
'Can we keep and eye on Bea guys?' James asked his friends.
'Who's Bea?' asked Sirius ' is she your new Lily? I'm glad if she is mind you if you talk about her half as much as you do Lily then we are no longer friends.' Sirius joked.
'Ew. No! She's my kid sister.' James replied, disgusted by his friends thought.
' Now that would be gross.' laughed Sirius. ' You going to introduce us to her? Or are you going to hide her away from the male population?'
'If she wants to talk she said she'd find me. Other than that she said she wanted to be on her own.' said James
'so that's a no then.' Sirius replied disheartened.
' You'll see her at Hogwarts!' James quickly replied' Anyway she's not your type. Too young and immature.' James said hastily, the last thing he wanted was his best friend fancying his little sister!
Bea was getting more and more nervous for her first day a Hogwarts. It was a day before she was to be leaving on the train at kings cross from platform 9 and ¾. She had gotten passed her excitement a few days after her letter arrived. She thought the nerves would pass like this but she was scared of not making friends, being sorted in to Slytherin and failing at all her classes.
'Its alright for you James! You're in Gryffindor!' Bea shouted at her brother, for telling her, her worries were for nothing.
' Look we will be in the same house. And there's no point in doubting it!' said James reassuring his sister. ' Sirius is coming over in a minute and I don't know how you've managed to avoid him all this time but your going to meet my best friend and forget about these last-minute nerves.' said James trying to distract his sister from her pointless worries.
' Okay then. I suppose it would be nice to know someone other than you when I start Hogwarts. Will you and him both be trying out for the quidditch team this year?'
' I think we will both be, there are some openings, obviously I'll be going for chaser and Sirius is going for beater. We can have a game if you like when he gets here' James suggested ' might calm you down a bit' he then muttered.
Bea changed into her over sized grey t-shirt and leggings. So she would be comfortable when they were playing quidditch. She was start on the kitchen floor drinking a cup of tea when she heard Sirius' voice. Though she had avoided meeting him, by staying in her room, she could recognize her brothers friends voices immediately.
James and Sirius were casually talking about the upcoming year of Hogwarts and how glad they were to be going back.
'Look mate.' said James ' Bea can be a little shy around new people. That's why she hasn't want to meet you guys before.'
'Am I really hearing this. A Potter. Shy! don't make me laugh!'
' She genuinely is! But when you get to know her, you sure wish she was that shy girl again!'
'James! Stop talking about me when I'm just behind the door!' Bea called to her brother.
' She doesn't sound shy to me mate.' said Sirius.
' You still up for the game of quidditch then?' asked Bea as they walked in. ' Oh and James, don't go crying to mum when I beat you again!'
'Really Bea. The time you don't seem shy is in front of my friend! And you're trying to embarrass me. Anyway I didn't go crying to mum!' James replied quickly to his sister.
' She is bloody amazing James. At quidditch that is.' Sirius panted at his friend. ' She's a girl though… she can't have beat us!… and there was two of us'
'She not modest in her wins, just say we had to let her win. that's what I normally do. She's also a sore loser so you can't win either way really.' James replied.
Bea was doing a cheesy victory dance to the house that consisted of doing the chicken, krumping, and twerking! What James was used to seeing whenever she won a game of quidditch. However Sirius was now laughing so much at what she was doing he was getting glares from James.
'Well you can definitely tell that you're related! You two like to make yourselves look the fools!' laughed Sirius.
'Stop laughing at her! It will only encourage her!' sniggered James.
'I don't need to be encouraged!' called Bea ' I'm going to get a shower before dinner. I'll see you guys in a bit.'
Bea looked more casual than before. She had washed her blonde waist length hair, which now tumbled down like a waterfall down her back. With little ringlets of curls at the ends of her hair Bea tended to straighten her hair once she showered however she just wanted to relax. So she left it and snuggled into her pink onsie, with fluffy socks on.
James and Sirius had also changed after all Bea did knacker them out from quidditch. James wore some grey joggers and a plain white tee. Whereas Sirius wore some cut off grey joggers and a gym vest, though he was young he had a very defined body for his age.
They sat down for dinner as a family. Which was something the Potter family hadn't done in quite a while since Thomas Potter had been working overtime at the Ministry and Evelyn had the week at a conference and didn't return until late like her husband.
'So Sirius, Evelyn tells me that your staying the night with us, and travelling to the station with us.' Thomas inquired.
'Yes sir. She and James insisted.' Sirius replied.
'Enough with the sir! Call me Tom; and Evelyn, well Evelyn.' said Mr Potter.
'Thank you sir… erm I mean Tom.'
After fits of laughter from Bea, James and Sirius at Tom Potter, the 3 decided to go to bed, after all it would be an early start in the morning and a long train journey to Hogwarts.
Bea lay in bed. trying to go to sleep but she was now excited for her journey and her first day at Hogwarts. She was glad she met Sirius today. He and James made her feel relaxed about going. However she didn't want to leave her mum and dad. She had never been away from them for more than a month, but she knew that this time would be a once in a lifetime opportunity which she would grow and develop as a person and as a witch.
James
'I don't know why Bea was being quite so bold. The normal Bea is really quiet when she meets people.' James spoke to his friend before they went to their separate rooms.
' Its just the effect I have on people! No. No really she probably wanted to seem confident so she could make friends more easily when she gets to Hogwarts.'
'right then you know where your room is right. I need some sleep before we go tomorrow. Got to look my best for lily.'
Thought I would leave it the went on a bit but decided this was a good place to stop, so you can see a pre-Hogwarts build up. Sorry I couldn't find the names of James parents anywhere so I chose a name! If anyone knows then please leave it in the R & R. Sorry if any information is wrong but please R & R I will update ASAP I have lots ideas floating about my head : )
