Chapter 8 - Shopping, Shopping and More Shopping

Sam's POV

Wow, this family was loaded, I only got some money whenever I searched the pockets of travelers who got too close, I normally kept it to buy new clothes or something else that I may have needed to survive.

But as Liz and Billy led me to different stores to get the things on mine and theirs list I heard a scream. We immediately left the store we were at and ran to the scream. An elderly lady was screaming at Emmett and Alec who were just standing there wondering what the hell was going on. Of course the sun was showing a little and Vampire skin glitters in the sun. Soon the rest of the family met up with us, the other vamps glowing as well.

"Is something wrong," Edward finally burst out looking between the old lady and Alec and Emmett who were still standing there looking at the Joke shop next to them.

"Is something wrong, you're VAMPIRES what are you doing out in the open and let alone in Diagon Alley." the old lady shrieked very loudly.

I was starting to shack violently from the nerves that were telling me to phase, I wanted to just eat this woman alive to get her to shutup. Billy turned to me and wrapped his arm around my shoulders and whispered low into my ear, "Please calm down or else we're going to have more to explain."

That's when I just melted into his hands, I don't know how it happened but I calmed down and just laid my head on his shoulder.

"Yes were Vampires and I would appreciate it if you would stop yelling that, we're here shopping for my grandkids, two of which already attend Hogwarts and my other two who are going to attend as well." Edward continued.

"Look Mr. Vampire I don't know who you are but you don't belong here..."she started but never finished, because that's when a group of more people with more teenagers around our age came and asked what's going on.

"Mom, what is the matter," the red head asked to the old lady.

"Mrs. Weasley, it's okay these people are friends of ours, see there's Billy and Elizabeth, they are in the same year as Rose and Albus." the dark haired one said.

That's when Billy said, "Hi Mr. Potter, and Mr. Ron."

Edward spoke next, "Hi Harry and Ron, I'm sorry what's happened but the woman screamed when she saw my brother Emmett and Carlie's husband Alec glowing in the sun, we're here with the children to buy their school supplies."

"I understand Edward, I know it was misunderstanding, we just didn't tell Mrs. Weasley about you guys being Vampires, it never occurred to us to be a big deal, if you'll excuse us we need to calm her down before she draws in more attention to herself." Harry kept saying then turned and said hi to Billy and Liz.

The teens on the other side by Ron and Harry waved to Billy and Liz and then turned around because they were done shopping, as you could see by their various packages in their hands.

"Well that was weird," I finally let out.

And everybody just kept laughing until we went our separate ways again.

Later that day after we got just about all of our supplies, me, Billy, Liz, EJ and AJ were in Twilfitt and Tatting's, from what it looked like, a very expensive store. Liz was talking to a boy who was next to her also getting fitted for robes. He looked like the boy from the other night.

Behind me the parents were talking, or laughing to themselves. The boy's mother mentioned to Bella and Edward that she recognized me. She said when her colony wanted to disturb fairies while they were drunk not all of them came back, and one night while she was a teenager she saw me turn into a wolf while jumping down a tree and attack one of her friends, they never saw anything like it and never went back. Her colony never wanted to attack the strange wolf or girl because she was probably protecting the fairies and that was our fault for trying to mess with them.

I blushed more when I heard this story and put my head down, where I started to cry softly. Billy raised my head, and wiped away the tears, "It's not your fault, and if I were you, look in the mirror." he said.

I looked up into the mirror in front of me and watched as the glowing red of my eyes faded away to reveal blue orbs staring back at me. In shock I gasped.

"My eyes they're, they're, oh my gosh," I said with more tears coming down, this time from joy. My eyes it was the first time I've ever seen them since well ever. I turned around and saw Billy smiling, something I noticed he never did because that's what Lizzie told me when I asked why he's so angry.

I hugged Billy and then got off the pedestal and ran to Bella where I gave her a big hug. "Thank you so much for letting me stay, I'm so happy here, you have no idea." I said wiping away the tears and wincing as the pins poked my skin.

"Sam, it's great to have you in my family, and I'm more than happy to know that I still have relatives alive in the world," Bella said kissing my forehead now.

"Thank you Momma," I said in return into her chest.

I loved the Cullen's and how could you not love this quirky family and Bella just felt like my Mom, she was just that type of person, even though I was like her great aunty times 2.

Once we were done in the shop, we headed back out of Diagon alley, to the Leaky Cauldron and then to the cars. We put everything into the trunks and I walked around to get inside, when Billy grabbed my hand to lead me towards everyone else who were walking away from the car and down the street to the London underground metro.

Sensing my question, Billy said, " We're going shopping for clothes, there's a big mall we're headed too. Aunty Alice says you need clothes among other things to survive in this family. Don't feel too bad, you, EJ and AJ and Me are being shopped for."

"But why are Liz, Carlie, Nessie and Rose all beaming with joy that we're going?" I asked him.

"It's because they love to go shopping along with Alice it's one of their favorite past times," Bella answered.

"We're coming along because if we don't regulate their shopping they'll buy the whole mall," Jacob finished.

I just nodded my head for the torture I was about to go through.

Billy and Edward started laughing just then, from hearing what I said. "Well I guess that settles it, you really are Bella's relative, she doesn't like to go shopping either," Edward said laughing again.

"Oh thanks Dad," I responded.

Bella and Edward decided to adopt me because they wanted another child. They offered Rosalie if she wanted to adopt me, but she said it's quite alright, her and Emmett weren't going to be in the UK much longer, they were going to Georgia for a little bit.

After the shopping spree where we spent so much money and came back to the cars with so many bags I was shocked to see that they all fit into the trunks of all the cars.

I was a bit exhausted but mostly hungry, I grabbed a snack at the food court with Jacob and Billy, but that was it. Human food tastes weird after all my years of eating deers and other wildlife animals.

When we got home, I took my bags up to my room with Kendy, all us kids had shopping to sort through and put away.

When I got back downstairs there was a feast prepared to feed more than 50 people.

Esme is really good cook.

After sleeping for two hours I woke up, I didn't need as much sleep as a human does, I think it's the wolf genes in me, I'm not sure. But it was 12am in the big mansion and I was exploring the house. I found the play room with a huge flat screen television where Emmett and Alec were going head to head playing a game. I continued until I found Jazz in the library reading a book.

"Hi Sam, is everything okay?" he asked.

"Everything is fine," I replied, "I don't need to sleep as long as a regular human, I was just up and wanted to see if I could do anything other than play video games or watch the tele."

"Would you like to read? Billy and Liz read their school books before they got to school, it helped them to get to know what they were getting themselves into, why don't you try that?" Jazz offered.

"That sounds like a good idea," I said and turned around to go back to my room and grab a couple of books to read.

Billy's POV

Today's the day, the day we head to King's Cross. We didn't want another repeat of having to wake up at 5am after me, EJ and AJ whined to no end that we didn't want to do it. Pop's decided to get rooms at a hotel not far from Kings Cross so we could just walk over.

My trunk was packed with everything I was going to need, Sam and Liz had a hard time packing their trunks so she used a spell learned in her spell books, which worked perfectly because she was able to fit everything and more into her trunk. Aunty Alice noticed it and wanted them to do it for me and the twins. That's when Dad said "NO, pixie, they're boys, not girls, they can wear the same thing over and still look good."

Aunty Alice just pouted and walked out the room.

We didn't need to worry about wizarding law about being underaged to do magic, because well we could do other things that would scare them, and the fact that well we were all pretty older than them.

I lifted my trunk onto the cart at the station, and so did EJ, AJ, Liz and Sam. Sam had to wear shades because her eyes started to glow a little white now that she was so happy, she didn't really care because she could see her blue eyes now, and to be honest they were beautiful.

Once we passed through the platform at 9 3/4 Sam's mouth dropped and AJ and EJ had the smuggest look on their faces. If our parents thought me and Lizzie were bad, pfft they don't know these two. Carlie was strict that she always kept them in check. Dad says she gets it from Edward, since he's always been overprotective of everything.

I waved when I saw Mr. Potter and his family along with the Weasley gang. The rest of the family followed me as I got closer to the Potter's and Weasley's.

"Hello Harry, Ginny, and well everybody," my dad started, shaking hands with everyone.

My vampire family just nodded their heads, as did everyone else.

EJ and AJ looked scared, so did Sam she kept shaking nervously and everybody noticed this, so I grabbed her hand and she stopped shaking.

"Hey Billy, hey Sam, nice to see you guys again, it's Lily's first year too, me and James are supposed to like watch her every move." Albus my good friend said beaming because he was so happy to be going back to school.

"Yeah I know, I'm supposed to do the same for the twins, I'm not really looking forward to it to be honest." I responded, "but I'll meet you inside try and reserve like two maybe three compartments, sound good?" I asked, and Albus just shook his head and got on the train with his trunk.

I pulled Sam towards the direction of Mr. Potter, and Lily and Hugo who were talking to themselves nervous.

EJ, AJ, come here I want to introduce you to someone. I said in their minds, and they followed getting off the train with Lizzie who met up with Albus to put their trunks away.

"Hey Lily, Hugo, nice to see you guys again," I said.

Lily blushed a little and Hugo looked a bit scared, after what happened earlier in the week.

"Hi Billy," Lily finally said.

"I want to introduce you guys to some of my family members, this is Sam my grandparents just adopted her, and this is my nephews Alec and Edward, but we call them EJ and AJ for short, and this guys is Lily Potter and Hugo Weasley, you're going to see a lot of them in your classes because well you're first years," I finished. That's when I saw Lily smile and Sam relaxed next to me and EJ and AJ had a grin on their faces, Hugo's fear was gone and even he was more relaxed.

I leaned into Sam's ear and whispered, "I'm going to take our trunks in talk to them you'll be really good friends." I told her, and she nodded, and I walked away to take our trunks and put everything away before going back out to my parents and my Pops and Momma.

Once outside, I hugged and kissed my parents and aunts and uncles and grandparents. When I got to Papa Edward and Momma Bella, I just gave them both a big hug and said see them next year. Sam, Lizzie, EJ and AJ did the same thing and we loaded onto the train into our different compartments.

The train ride was well long like always, a couple of times I'd teleport into Sam's area or teleport to sit on top of the train. Eventually we all got thirsty and I had to teleport into the forest to get 5 deers that I left on the roof of the train and teleported Sam, EJ and AJ with me. We drank to our delight and threw the deer off the train and flitted back into train. Lizzie was sucking on a blood flavored lolli. It tasted just like blood but human blood, I did't want to get tempted to drink human blood anymore then I should've.
