Chapter 10: Travels
Harry grabbed a knapsack and filled it with a few items that he left in Lily's room. Then he and Lily left the house and head for Lily's electric blue dodge neon car.
"You know how to drive?" Harry asked.
"Don't you trust me?" Lily said with a wink.
With that said Lily backed the car out of the driveway and headed for Indianapolis to catch a plane.
"How are we supposed to afford plane tickets?" Harry asked.
"We will figure something out," Lily said.
They didn't talk much over the two hour drive. When they finally reached the airport they stood in line to get tickets. The line moved slowly. Finally they were at the front.
"Would you like to pay with cash, check or credit?"
"Check, I suppose," Lily said.
The woman looked at the check and saw the signature. "Oh miss Lily Kacufrakus, we already had something set up for you and a mister Harry Potter months ago," The woman took them to an area outside with an odd looking man by it. It was Ron dad. The woman left them alone.
"Mr Weasley, what are you doing here?" Harry said.
"Dumbledore asked me to come here after his will was read. He has something set up for you," Mr. Weasley pointed to a silver instrument that had once been Dumbledore's. "Dumbledore, really had this planned out,"
"This portkey is supposed to take you to a location in Diagon Alley. From there someone will know how you get back here. I wish you the best of luck." Mr. Weasley said.
"Lily doesn't know how to use a portkey," Harry said. "I will be right there with you Lily."
Harry grabbed Lily's hand and felt the electrical arousing shock again. "I will have to get used to that I suppose it is because of the prophecy." Harry thought. Harry grabbed the portkey and felt the invisible hook behind his navel that he had felt the first time he used it fourth year. He felt his feet being pulled from the ground.
He felt a slam about a minute later and he found Lily halfway across the alley. People were giving them weird looks, but they walked by. Harry ran over to Lily and picked her up. She brushed herself off. She basically looked fine so he took her hand and ran to Knockturn Alley.
He found the store he was looking for and pulled his invisibility cloak out of his knapsack. He put it on and gave Lily the instructions.
"You will go in there and sort of flirt with the shop owner so to speak ask him to give you a tour or anything to get his attention off of the backroom. I will sneak in there find the box and then come out and nudge you a little that is when you know to leave the store. Oh and I grabbed some of your clothes for you to change into," Harry said.
"You got into my stuff?" Lily asked angrily. "You got into my stuff?"
"I'm sorry Lily and I didn't look around to much just grabbed stuff out of your closet," Harry said.
"This isn't my stuff I had to borrow it once from a friend, and she left them here."
"Yeah I thought they didn't match anything else you owned," Harry said.
Lily blushed and said, "Thanks, but that still doesn't make up for what you did,"
"Hey, Lily we were running out of time I'm sorry," Harry said.
"It doesn't matter now just give me the clothing and let me change under that cloak in that deserted alley over there," Lily said.
Lily took the cloak and with a little difficulty got into a black mini skirt and a tight cotton spaghetti strap red shirt that showed her midriff. She put her hair up in a loose ponytail. She had a pair of stiletto black strapped high heels on. When she walked up to Harry, he started to get a little hot "Oh man I hope she doesn't notice that," Harry thought.
Harry got under the invisibility cloak and followed Lily into the store.
