The next morning Abby woke up to get ready to go to Diagon Alley with her best friend and his family. She made her way down to the kitchen April was finishing her tea at the table.

"Morning Bebe," April said smiling up at her little sister.

"Morning April."

"So, you leave at noon?"

"Yes, they'll pick me up at noon," Abby confirmed.

April nodded and gulped down the last down of her tea. "I made some breakfast for you and Jay."

"Thanks."

April nodded and kissed her sister goodbye before leaving. Abby poured herself some tea and sat down.

"Morning," Jason greeted with a yawn.

"Morning," she smiled.

He poured himself some tea and sat down.

"How can you drink Black Tea? It has no taste," Abby frowned looking at her brother's cup of tea.

"I just like it this way."

"Whatever. So, when are you going to Diagon Alley?" she asked.

Jason replied. "Monday, I'm going with Nate and his family. His little sister starts this year."

"The same little sister who fancies you," she teased.

Jason blushed. "She doesn't fancy me."

"Whatever you say, little bro," she chuckled.

Jason rolled his dark blue eyes as Abby heated up their breakfast and they ate. After breakfast, she began getting dressed.

At noon, there was a knock on the door.

"Be right down!" she called.

A few minutes later she walked down the stairs to see Malcolm and his mum.

"Hey Abs," he greeted with a smile.

"Hey Mal."

"You ready to go, dear?" Rose asked.

"Yes."

Abby said goodbye to her brother and began walking towards the car with her heart beating out of her chest.

"Abs, you okay?"

"I'm fine," she assured her best friend.

Malcolm said firmly. "No you're not."

"I'm scared to get in the car," she admitted.

His blue-grey eyes filled with worry. "You are?"

Abby nodded and sat down on the lawn.

"You alright, dear?" Rose asked noticing the look on her face.

Abby took a deep breath as she rested her head on Malcolm's shoulder.

"I think she's having a minor panic attack. They're understandable after what happened to her parents," Malcolm explained.

"But I wasn't even in the car. I didn't freak out other times I was in a car."

"It's still possible that you have a fear of cars."

About 20 minutes of silence went by.

"You alright now, Abs?" Malcolm asked

"I feel better now," she confirmed looking up at him.

Malcolm stood up and helped Abby up. They walked to the car and got in and drove to London. They made their way to the Leaky Cauldron and to Diagon Alley. First, they went to Gringotts then went to Flourish and Blotts.

"I wonder who our Defense Professor is this year?" Malcolm pondered as they searched for their books.

"I don't know, but maybe they will be competent."

Malcolm nodded. They finished buying their books and left Flourish and Blotts. As they made their way to Florean Fortescue's, Abby caught sight of a cat in 'Magical Menagerie ' window. She walked in the store to check it out.

"There you are!" Malcolm said.

Abby turned to him holding the kitten who was a half Maine Coon and half Ragdoll so it was a big ball of fluff.

After they finished, they walked to Florean Fortescue.

"You remember the guy who seemed to fancy me?"

"Yes, Jerry, wasn't it?"

"Yeah, it turns out that he's Matt's cousin."

"He is?"

Abby nodded. "So, you know my sister seems to like us together."

"My mum has mentioned it a few times too but you're like my sister."

Abby smiled. "You're like my brother."

"That's good to know that I'm not breaking your poor little heart."

She giggled. "I'm sure you have your eyes on someone else."

"I actually do."

"Anyone I know?"

Malcolm blushed. "I've fancied Lila since our fourth year. She's never noticed me though."

"Maybe that will change this year," she said hopefully.

"Hopefully."

They finished their ice cream and left. They drove back to Abby's house.

"I'll see you at school, Abs," Malcolm said hugging her .

"Bye, Mal."

Rose said goodbye to her son's best friend before leaving. Abby walked in the house.

"Hey sis, how did your trip go?"

"Good."

"You alright from before I witnessed your attack."

"Fine."

Jason nodded. "You know I've had them a few times. I think I remember mum having one or two before I went to Hogwarts."

"I can imagine her having them when you were petrified your first year."

Jason nodded.

The two siblings continued watching the telly until their older sister arrived.

"So, what do you want to do this weekend?" April asked as she began making dinner.

"I read about a museum exhibit at the local museum," Abby said.

"What type of exhibit?"

"About the Titanic," she smiled.

The two other Albright siblings grinned. The three of them have been obsessed with the Titanic for years.

"It opens tomorrow."

"That's great, maybe we can be first in line," April said.

"That would be an adventure."

"Let's go after dinner."

The three of them ate their dinner quickly and packed up their sleeping bags.

"It looks like someone had the same idea," Abby said pointing out a black haired man.

April said. "We'll still be first."

"I think not, Miss," a thick Irish accent said.

"Albright, what makes you say that?"

The man smirked. "I have connections."

"What makes you so special?"

"I'm a famous sports star."

Before April could respond an older man walked over. "You giving them a hard time, son?"

"No, sir."

"Is my godson giving you three trouble?"

"He claimed he's famous," April complained.

The man was about to say something but decided not to.

"I want to see the exhibit Uncle Des, I have practice in the morning and we need to practice hard we're in the finals."

The older man softened. "Come in Aidan. You three can come too if you want."

"You sure?" April asked.

"Positive."

April nodded and walked in with her siblings.

"I'm Aidan, by the way," he smiled.

"I'm April, these are my little sister Abby and little brother Jason."

Jason huffed. "I'm not little. I'm big and strong."

"Whatever you say, little brother."

"So, what got you into the Titanic?" Aidan asked.

April smiled. "I learned about it in school and I became fascinated."

"Same here. How old are you?"

"I'm 21, Abby's 16 and Jason is 13."

Aidan nodded. "I'm 22."

They reached the exhibit and stood in awe. They stayed in front of the exhibit for ages.

"So, I would like to get to know you better," Aidan told April as they walked out.

"Are you asking me out?"

"I am."

"I would like that too."

Aidan smiled. "Are you into sports? I could give you some tickets to the final match?"

"What type of sport is it?"

Aidan thought for a moment. "I can't really say."

"Mysterious, I like it. You really can get tickets?"

"I can try."

"Alright."

The two of them exchanged contact information.

"That definitely fun"

"It was." April blushed.

Abby smirked at her sister. "You and Aidan seemed to hit it off."

"We did."

They reached their house.
