The summer seemed to fly by. Before I knew it, it was September 1st. Al and James woke at 6:00am and ran downstairs to have breakfast. Mum had already prepared eggs and pancakes for the boys. I would have slept longer but the boys fighting woke me up.
James was tormenting Al again that he would be in Slytherin. So I figured I would wake up and go get some breakfast. When Dad woke up he asked the boys if their trunk was ready. Al's had been ready since we came back from Diagon Alley. James on the other hand was not even close to being done packing.
When James was done breakfast he ran upstairs to finish packing while Al was worrying again.
At 7:30 we were ready to go. We got in the car, which we barely ever travel in, and drove to Kings Cross. When we reached the station it was very crowded. Dad lead the way towards platform 9 ¾.
James went first straight at the barrier, he was followed by Dad, then Al and finally me and mum. We went through the barrier and landed on Platform 9 ¾. The blazing red train sat there on the tracks as students waved to their parents.
*** I know the next part is not quite the same as the book
I wished I could go to Hogwarts know. I didn't want to wait for two more years. James ran off somewhere, most likely to find Fred. I was the first to spot Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione with Rose and Hugo.
Rose seemed just as nervous as Al. Maybe it was due to the fact that Uncle Ron said he would disinherit her if she was in Slytherin. Hugo and I laughed but Aunt Hermione glared at him.
"Oi! Harry!" said Uncle Ron, "Look over there! It's Malfoy!"
I turned to see where Uncle Ron was looking. There was a man with bleach blond hair standing beside a woman with long flowing brown hair. In front of them was a young boy, a mirror image of his father, holding a trunk in his hand.
"That must be Scorpius" said Dad.
"Don't let him beat you on any test Rosie" said Uncle Ron.
Rosie looked nervous as Aunt Hermione shot another sharp glance at Uncle Ron.
Across the station I spotted Lavender and Juliet, who we saw in Diagon Alley in the summer. Both were dressed in pink from head to toe. Remembering what mum said in Diagon Alley I asked Dad, Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione if they knew her. Ron mumbled something. Hermione got a slight bewildered look in her face and dad just laughed and nodded.
I didn't understand what dad thought was so funny.
"Look who's with her" said Dad, "Good ole Cormac" shooting a glance at Aunt Hermione. She avoided his eye contact. I looked over to where dad was looking. There was a tall strapping man, with a boy that was equally as tall and strapping.
Out of nowhere, James popped up. "Guess What? I saw Teddy snogging Victoire! Our cousin Victoire!" he said excitedly. I always thought it would be lovely if they go married then Teddy could really be part of the family.
"I also saw Aaron Mclaggan, he's a prat. He thinks he's the most amazing person on the planet. JUST because his dad play Quidditch. So, he came up and starting bragging to me and Freddie about how his dad has been called one of the best keepers of the decade. So, I told him that I had a bunch of famous Quidditch players in my family AND my dad killed Voldemort!"
Dad laughed. Uncle Ron said, " Just like his dad Aaron is"
Then I spotted God mummy Luna with her husband Rolf and her two sons Lorcan and Lysander.
According to James, Lorcan is quite normal and even helps James and Freddie with pranks sometimes whereas Lysander is just like his mum, quite odd. But, even though Luna is odd I still love her.
She came over and gave me a copy of the Quibbler. " Rolf and I are headed to Romania to look for Crumple horned Snorcracks." Said Luna. She then wondered off.
The trains whistle blew and James kissed me, mum and dad goodbye and ran to the train.
Dad took Al aside and talked to him.
When Al was done talking to Dad he came and said goodbye to me and mum and dad went and helped him load his trunk onto the train.
The train pulled away from the station and Roxy and I chased it as far as we could waving at James, Fred and Al. The train slowly rolled out of the distance. People slowly left the station.
Mum and dad said it was time to go so I followed Mum and Dad to the car and we drove back home.
