Hey Everyone! I know it's been a long time and I'm so sorry! I kind of forgot about this story! So I was re-reading it to figure what to do for the next chapter when I realized that I hated this! So I have decided to redo the first 2 chapters! Some of it you may recognize some of it as I did like some aspects of the original. So once again here it is, the new and improved Can We Be!
How they met
"Ops, sorry Harry!" my godfather, Sirius, says to me as the ball fly's way over my head.
"It's ok!" I yell back to him as I run to get the ball. The ball had gone straight into the small wooded area that was behind the park that I and my family were at. I see the ball right away; the problem is that it's stuck in a tree. It's way too far up in the branches for me to reach and there isn't any branches low enough for me to climb up and get it. I stand there looking up at the tree wondering what I'm going to do when I hear crunching of leaves behind me.
"Harry you alright?" I hear my godfather ask as he looks around for me. When he sees me he walks over to me while asking
"What's wrong Harry?" I point up the tree to the ball.
"It's stuck." I tell him while pouting some. Sirius looks up at the ball for a moment before looking back at me with a wicked grin. Before I can ask him what he's thinking he pulls out his wand saying
"I can fix that." I light up as with a flick of my godfather's wrist the ball comes falling back down to the ground. It falls to the ground with a tiny crunch from landing in a pile a leaves. I walk over to it and pick it up smiling. Just as I'm turning to Sirius I hear from my right
"You can make things move too!"
Sirius and I both look over to see a girl that wasn't there a second. She's pushing crazy curly hair from her face while grinning like crazy at us. I look to my godfather to see what we should do. We are going to be in big trouble with mom.
"What do you mean?" my godfather asks the girl, while still holding his wand. The girl's smile falls a little but brightens seconds later.
"Watch." She says before looking at some of the rocks near her. She bends over and picks up a rock before holding that hand out to us, palm open with the rock sitting in it. She stands there looking at the rock and we watch as the rock slowly floats up into the air. The rock gets to be about as high as her shoulder before it suddenly is thrown against a nearby tree.
"Ops, I didn't mean for that to happen." The girl says while looking at the tree the rock had hit. After a moment she turns back around to stare at us with wide eyes.
"You think I'm a bad person now don't you." She says in a small voice before looking down at the ground. I can barely see the tears on her face through all of her crazy hair.
"What do we do Sirius? I don't know how to deal with crying girls." I say while shooting a glance at the girl. She's brought her hands up, covering her face. Sirius gives a short bark of a laugh before walking closer to the girl.
"You're not a bad person. Tell me how long have you been able to do this?" He asks her while putting a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm not?" She asks while looking up at him. He bends down to be almost eye level with her and shakes his head. She wipes her eyes before looking back at him.
"Moving rocks? Just a few weeks…normally they don't go that high. Or hit things." She says quietly. I take a few steps to her now that she's not crying and stand right behind Sirius.
"Wow. How old are you?" Sirius says while staring at the girl with shock.
"I'm ten, I'm about to be eleven!" She says proudly. So I was right, we are the same age."And…I can make other things happen too…" She trails off quietly. We all sit there in silence for a moment, none of us knowing what to say.
"My name's Harry Potter and this is my godfather Sirius." I finally say.
"What's your name sweetheart?" Sirius asks her while wiping her face with his sleeve.
"Hermione." She says after a moment.
