And now on with the story
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hello!My name is Kassi. You don't know me but I have quite an interesting story to tell so just
shut up and listen.Well first I should tell you my stats. I am 15 years old, I have blond hair,
blue eyes, my best pals are Hannah and Sarah, and I have a very serious obsession with
*NSYNC(or at least I did). So now that that's over with,on with my story. I guess I'll start at
the beginning.
One morning after Sarah and Hannah had spent the night, I recieved a letter. Which wouldn't
be so strange but Sarah and Hannah got one too. In my mailbox. Confused? So were we. My
mom gave us the letters and we ran upstairs to my bedroom. We opened them and read them.
Dear Miss Parker,
My name is Albus Dumbledore. I am the headmaster at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and
Wizardry. I am writing to inform you that you are indeed a witch and have been accepted to
Hogwarts. Enclosed is a list of supplies you will need for school. I will send one of my
associates to your home on August 30 to take you to Diagon Alley and buy your supplies. The
Hogwarts Express will come on September 1. It will bring you to Hogwarts along with the
other students. I await your arrival.
Sincerely,
Albus Dumbledore
P.S. You will be in fifth year.
"Huh?"we all said at the same time. We looked at each other.
"Did yours say..."I started. They nodded. I got up and dashed downstairs, Hannah and Sarah
close at my heels.
"Mom!!!!!!"I cried, running into the kitchen. She looked at me.
"What?"she asked. I gave her the letters. She read one and raised her eyebrows. She gave us
that is-this-a-joke look and we shook our heads.
"Well,this is...odd."she said. I nodded. "I don't think these are really from a school."She dropped
them in the trash can and went back to washing the dishes. I turned to my friends and they
shrugged. We went back upstairs without giving it another thought. We thought it as a joke until
the letters started coming daily until mom stopped trashing them. So we all decided to take it
seriously and wait for an associate to come on August 30. And they did.
"E'lo ma'm."said the huge man(A/N:Hagrid). And when I say huge, I mean huge. This man was like
giant sized. "My name's Hagrid. I'm here to take yer kid ta Hogwarts fer Dumbledore."the man
told my mom."And her frinds too."My mom just stared at him. He just stood there and waited
for her to come to her senses.
"Oh yes,of course.Kassi,Hannah,Sarah. Get your things. Someone's here for you."Mom called. We
all got up off the couch and drug our trunks down the stairs to the living room. The man saw us
and took all of our trunks. We looked up into his smiling face.
"We are going to take floo-powder to Diagon Alley. Here take this."he said, handing me a small
pouch of what looked a bit like sand. I stared at him.
"Take a pinch and throw it into the fire. Yell Diagon Alley and hop in the fire, and there you go.
Just be sure to keep your hands at your sides."he said. I was a bit confused but I did what I was
told. I gave my mom a hug goodbye and threw some of the powdery stuff in the fire.
"D-Diagon Alley."I said, in as loud of a voice as I could manage.The flames turned blue and I
jumped in.*Whoosh*I stopped moving. I stepped out of another fireplace and looked around.
Everyone around me was staring. I looked at the way they were dressed and realised *that*
was why they were staring.*Thud* Sarah came tumbling out the fireeplace, looking terrified.
I helped her up just as Hannah stepped out, Hagrid right behind her.Everyone around us stopped
staring. Hagrid put a hand on my shoulder a pushed me towards the door. We walked out and
my jaw dropped. This little town was amazing. There were people dressed in funny dress things
and there were little stores everywhere. Hagrid put our trunks on a little rolling cart and took
us to a bank. They exchanged our money for what they call wizard money, galleons,sickles,and
knuts. We put in little bags and then Hagrid took us into a book store.
"Hermione, why are you getting all those extra books. Aren't school books enough?"I heard a
tall red haired boy asked a girl with bushy brown hair. The girl looked at him.
"Ron excuse me but I would rather sit and read than turn into a dumb slacker like you."The red
haired girl that was standing with them laughed. The a boy with jet black hair walked up to them.
"Sorry, 'Mione, but I don't think it is possible for you become dumb or a slacker. You can't even wait
a day to start your summer homework."the boy said. The brown haired girl glared at him.
"Harry, shut up."she growled. The red haired girl laughed again and the brown haired girl glared
at her.
"Come on, Ginny. It's obvious that they were haveing a lovers spat."the black haired boy said.
The brown haired girl and red haired boy turned bright red and the other two walked away
laughing.
"Oi, Harry!"Hagrid cried. The black haired boy looked in our direction and then dragged the red
haired girl towards us.
"Hi Hagrid!"they both said happily. Then Harry looked at Hannah, Sarah, and I.
"Who's this?"Harry asked, looking at us.
"These er some new students that er goin ter Hogwarts. They'll be in yer year Harry."Hagrid
said. Harry nodded. "Girls this is Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley." We shook hands with them.
"You guys want to come walk around with us?"Harry asked. We looked at Hagrid.
"Are we allowed?"I asked. Hagrid shrugged.
"I don't see why not."he said. "Just meet me at the Leaky Cauldron when you're done." We nodded
and walked off with Harry and Ginny. We got the rest of our books and then we went to a shop
to buy robes.
"Oh my god! You guys actually wear these things?"I cried, picking up one of the pointed hats.
Harry nodded.
"A bit cliche aren't they?"he asked. I nodded and began searching the racks of robes. I stopped
on a pair of sparkly silver ones. I pulled them off the rack and held them up to myself in front
of a mirror.
"Very nice."the mirror said. I jumped back,startled. I fell into Harry and he fell into a chair
with me on his lap. We blushed and I got back up.
"What do you think, Sarah?"I asked, holding the robes up in front of myself. She nodded.
"Pefect, Kass."she said. I smiled. I walked over to where Harry was sitting in a chair and
dropped them in his lap. He looked up.
"Hold those."I said. He nodded and I went to get my work robes.
I had just picked up four sets of black robes and was taking them to Harry to hold when I ran
into someone.I dropped the robes and we both knelt down to pick them up at the same time.
I looked to see who I'd ran into.
"HELLO!"I thought."Wow, he's yummy." We stood up and he handed me the robes. I stared
into silvery eyes (a/n:now, who could that be?)and became entranced. Just then someone
called me.
"Kassi, we're leaving. Hurry up."It was Harry. I mumbled a meak thank you to the hottie with
the silver eyes and walked back to where Harry was. He handed me my dress robes and put
a pointy hat on my head."Hurry up."he said. I nodded and went to pay for my stuff. When I
got to the counter I saw a box of silver hair things. I got a set of hair sticks, two scrunchies,
a head band, and some clips and payed for my stuff. The lady put it in a bag and I hurried
outside to catch up to everybody.
"It's about time."Sarah said.
"I found hair things." I said. The three girls nodded and Harry shook his head.
"What is it with girls and hair?"he asked as we walked towards a store called Quality Quidditch
Supplies. When we went in Harry insisted I buy a broom so I could try out for quidditch. I wasn't
sure what quidditch was but I got one anyway. He picked it out because I had no idea which was
which. I got a Firebolt. He said that was the one he had. He wanted me to get some quidditch
robes but Ginny told me not to until I found out what house I was in. I listened to her and didn't
buy the robes. Harry also picked out brooms for Hannah and Sarah. They got Nimbus 2001
because they didn't want four people to end up on the same team with the same broom. We
payed for our brooms and left, having to drag Harry out the door.
"What else do you guys need Kassi?"Ginny asked. I pulled out my list.
"Um, we need wands, a cauldron, 5th year potions kit, a crystal ball, and we can get an animal."
I said. Automatically Ginny grabbed my arm and drug me to the pet shop. I bought a small
black cat with green eyes(a/n:cliche witch cat I know). Sarah bought a big brown owl and Hannah
bought a small silvery white owl. We left there and went to Ollivander's Wands.
"Hmm."the old man said."Try this one."He handed me a wand and sparks flew out of the end.
"Thought so. Hickory,nine inches, unicorn hair."I paid him and we all left. The last place we went
was the Apothecary. I bought a large black cauldron and my potions kit and we left. Then we
went to meet Hagrid at the Leaky Cauldron which was where Ginny and Harry had to meet Ginny's
mom.
"So ye know yer gonna stay here ta night don't cha?"Hagrid asked. We nooded.
"Oh nonsense. There is no reason for them to stay here when the could stay with us."Mrs.
Weasley said. "You are going to stay with us and that's final. End of discussion." We nodded
and she ran off to scold Ginny's older brother's, Fred and George. We looked at Hagrid.
"Oh I ain't gonna argue with her. Molly's a pill when she's mad."Hagrid said. I looked at Harry.
"Aw, come on Kass, it'll be fun."he said, putting his arm around my shoulders. I yawned.
"Whatever."I said, laying my head on Harry's shoulder. I was too tired to argue. We left about
an hour later. When we got to the Weasley's house I went to Ginny's room and took a nap before
dinner. I was worn out.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry woke me up about an hour later.
"Kassi, wake up."he said,shaking my shoulder gently. I groaned and covered my head with a
pillow."Okay that's it. Get up."He pulled the pillow from my grasp and tossed it on the floor.
"It's time for dinner."Still I didn't budge. He grabbed my arms and pulled me up off the bed.
I sat back down."I was hoping I wouldn't have to do this."And before I could object he picked
me up and slung me over his shoulder. I screamed as he carried me out of the room and down
to the kitchen. Everyone was staring at us. "Uh... she wouldn't get up."Harry mumbled,setting
me down on the floor. He turned bright red and sat down in a chair. I did the same.Ron looked
quizzically at Harry, who looked down at his plate. I shook my head and took a bite of my mashed
potatoes(a/n:I love mashed potatoes!). We ate in silence for a while.
"This is really good, Mrs. Weasley."Hannah said. Mrs. Weasley smiled warmly at her.
"Why thank you dear. It is a family recipe."Mrs. Weasley said.
"Mum, makes the best fried chicken and mashed potatoes."Fred said. George laughed.
"It's not Christmas yet, Fred. No need to suck up already."Ginny said. We all laughed and Fred
glared at Ginny. I finshed quickly because I wanted to do something while no one was around.
"May I be excused?"I asked. Mrs. Weasley nodded. I got up quickly and started to run out of
the kitchen.
"Don't run Kassi."Mrs. Weasley called. I slow down til she couldn't me then I ran the rest of the
way to Ginny's room, closing the door behind me. I ran over to my trunk and pulled out my
battery powered cd player.A mix cd that my older sister made me was in it. I turned it on
and started dancing. I dance whenever I am stressed or nervous. I got so into my dancing that
I didn't hear the door open. I just kept right on dancing. "I Hope You Dance" came on and I
started singing along. George, who had been the person who had opened the door walked up
behind me and when I did a pirouette he grabbed my foot. It scared the crap out of me and I
almost fell over but caught myself on the windowsill.
"George,let go of my foot."I cried. He laughed.
"Try and get out of this position."he said. I glared at him.
"I can but you would be better off letting go of my foot before I go crouching tiger hidden dragon
on your ass."I said. He looked confused but let go of my foot.
"Mum said to tell you that dessert would be ready in half an hour."he said.
"Okay. I'll be down in a sec."I said. He nodded and left.
I sighed and turned off my cd player. I put it away and walked downstairs.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Everyone,minus Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, was sitting in the living room. Harry saw me come in and
scooted over. I sat down beside him on the couch.
"What were you doing up there."he whispered in my ear.
"Dancing."I whispered back. He nodded.
"So, whatcha talkin' 'bout?"I asked.
"Nothin' much."Hannah said.
"Why not. With this many people there's gotta be something to talk about."I said, brushing my
long blonde hair out of my face.
"What house do you think we'll be in?"Sarah asked. Harry thought a moment.
"Well you're smart so you could be Ravenclaw. Kassi you seem to be a wild woman,definetly
Gryffindor."At this comment George and Fred cheered."And Hannah, gee I don't know about
you."Harry said."Guess we'll find out in a couple of days won't we." Hannah nodded.
"Here you go, children."Mrs. weasley said,walking in and setting a large tray of ice cream
sundaes on the coffee table. We all to one and thanked her. She smiled and walked out.
"Your mom is the nicest person I have ever met in my life."I said, taking a bite of my ice cream.
Ginny giggled and George and Fred rolled their eyes.
"She is to you but try being her son."Fred said. Ron smacked him upside the head.
"I like our mom thank you very much."he said. Harry snickered.
"That's 'cause she likes you."George said."But try being one of the "Terrible Twosome" and you'll
know what Fred means, Ronnikins."George said. Ron glared at him.
"I do like you dear, but I don't like you're both together."Mrs. Weasley called from the kitchen.
"Gee, thanks mum. Glad to know you care so much."George said sarcastically.
"Your welcome dear." We all laughed and went back to eating our ice cream.
"We need music."I said after we had all finished."I'll be right back." I stood up and ran up the
stairs. I ran into Ginny's room, grabbed my cd player and cds and rushed back out of the room.
Just outside of the room I ran into a big black dog. It looked at me with curious eyes. I reached
down and stroked it's head. Suddenly the dog moved and started tranforming into a man. I
screamed and rushed to the stairs. I ran into Harry at the top,who had obviously heard me scream
and stopped.
"What?!?"he cried. I pointed in the direction of the man.
"Dog...man...scream..."I gasped,still pointing. Harry looked over my shoulder at the man standing
in the hall. The man waved and Harry laughed. He ran up to the man and gave him a big bear hug.
I just stared.
"Uh...Harry...you mind introducing me to the dog-man in the hall?"I asked, walking cautiously
towards them. Harry laughed again.
"Kass, this is my godfather, Sirius. Sirius, this is Kassi Parker. She is going to start Hogwarts this
year with her friends but she will be in my year." Harry said. I extended my hand slowly but Sirius
pushed it out of the way and hugged me. I was startled at first at this very open display of affection
but then I was okay and I hugged him back. Harry grinned and Sirius released me.
"Sirius, what are you doing here?"Harry asked. Sirius turned to him and smiled.
"You will never guess."he said.
"I know. That's why I asked instead of guessing. Now tell me!"Harry cried. Sirius laughed.
"I've been cleared!"he cried. Harry's face brightened and he hugged Sirius again. Sirius held
onto him and swung him around. He set him on the floor with a thud and we heard several pairs
of feet running up the stairs. Ron and Hermione were at the front of the pack.They looked at
Harry then at Sirius.
"Guess what."Sirius said,grinning broadly.
"You were cleared weren't you?"Hermione asked. Sirius nodded furiously. Hermione ran to him
and threw her arms around him. He picked her up and swung her around. Then he put her down
and hugged Ron. I could tell at that moment that Sirius was a very lovable person.
"Sirius,that's great. Now Harry can live with you."Ron said. Sirius nodded. Ron and Hermione
looked at Harry and they all had one large group hug.
"Aw...group hug!"Fred cried as he threw himself at them. I laughed and shook my head. They
were such a funny group.
"If I may be so forward,what were you cleared of Sirius."I asked. He turned to me.
"Murder."he said bluntly. My jaw dropped. How in the hell could anyone ever think a man this
lovable was a murder. CRAZY!
"No way! They actually thought you did it?!?!? I can tell already that you could never do something
like that."I said. He grinned and hugged me again.
"You know how long it's been since someone said something like that to me? Years! Thank you
so much, Kassi. You have no idea what that means to me!"he cried,squeezing me tightly.
"Uh...could you maybe let go now. I can't breathe."I choked out. He laughed and released me.
"Where are you going to stay, Sirius?"Harry asked.
"That,my boy, is the best part. I am going to be a teacher at Hogwarts!"Sirius said. Harry's smile (if
possible)grew wider.
"Yes! Finally a teacher I'll like!!!!"Harry cried, dancing around the hallway. Sirius laughed.
"I thought you like Remus."Sirius said.
"I did but you are way better!"Harry said,still dancing. He looked like an idiot. I grabbed his shoulders
and he stopped.
"Harry,as a concerned citizen,I can not allow you to do that in public."I said. He laughed.
"Okay, I'll refrain from the dancing."he said. Then he picked me up and swung me around."I'll
use you to display my happiness." I laughed and hugged him.
"Okay as long as you don't dance because what you just did here...that was just wrong."I said. He made
a mock hurt face and I smiled at him. He swung me around again and set me down. Just as my feet
touched the ground Mrs. Weasley came up the steps, followed by whom I guessed was another Weasley.
This one had a long red ponytail. I hadn't seen him yet. I realized Harry still had his arms around me and
we took two very large steps away from each other. The look Mrs. Weasley was giving me was enough to
make me want to become a nun.
"Oh,hello Sirius. What are you doing here?"Mrs. Weasley asked, still giving me the evil eye.Sirius ran up to
her and hugged her.
"Guess what, Molly. I've been cleared!"he cried. She smiled and hugged him back.
"That's wonderful, Sirius. I'm am very happy for you. I knew you didn't do it!"she said. He hugged her tightly
and released her.
"How are you doing, Bill? How are the goblins treating you?"Sirius asked, turning to the man with the ponytail.
He smiled.
"The goblins are treating me just fine, thanks."he said,beaming at Sirius."In fact I just got a promotion. That's
why I'm here." Suddenly I heard the pitter-patter of small feet pounding the steps. Ginny emerged at the top
and ran into Bill's arms.He picked her up and hugged her tightly.
"How are you doin' baby sister."he asked. She hugged him tightly.
"Bill, I missed you so much. What are you doing here? How long are you staying. I'm so glad you came."Ginny
cried, very fast.
"I missed you to, Gin. I got a promotion. I am staying 'til you leave for Hogwarts. I'm glad I came to."he said,
answering her question all at once. She giggled happily and he put her down. I looked at the age difference
between Bill and Ginny. Big difference!
"So excactly how many Weasley kids are there?"I asked. Mrs. Weasley looked at me.
"Well I'll start at the beginning. There's Bill,Charlie,Percy,George,Fred,Ron,and Ginny. Plus if you count in-laws
you have Fern,Abby,and Penelope."she said. My jaw dropped.
"Wow."was all I said.She smiled and lead Sirius and Bill downstairs. The rest of us followed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The morning that we were to go to Hogwarts was far to early for my taste. Mrs.
Weasley woke us up at 5:00am, then she woke me up at 6:00am, then Harry,Ginny,
Hannah,and Sarah literally drug me down to breakfast at 7:00am (obviously I'm not
a morning person.) So they got me to the table where I layedmy head down on the table
and almost fell asleep when Ginny pulled my head up off the table by my hair.
"Okay,I'm awake!"I cried. She laughed and let go.
"I thought that would work."she said.I rolled my eyes and ate a piece of toast.
"There I ate can I go back to bed now?"I whined.
"NO!"Harry,Ginny,Hannah,Sarah,and Mrs. Weasley cried all at once.
"Kassi,you are up,you are staying up.You are to big of a pain to get back up later."
Harry said. I glared at him.
"Well you are the expert in that department aren't you Harry."Ginny said.Harry turned
red and went back to his oatmeal.
"Kassi,you still have packing to do anyway."Hermione piped up from the doorway.
She walked in and sat down next to Harry.
"Oh...yeah...I forgot about that."I got up to go upstairs but Bill grabbed my arm and
pulled me back down in my seat.
"While you are in the Weasley house you will eat like a Weasley."he said as Mrs.
Weasley rolled about eight sausages onto my plate. Ginny filled my glass with milk.
"But..."I started but Harry cut me off.
"Don't bother arguing because they'll make you eat it anyway."he whispered in my ear.
I groaned and ate.Mrs. Weasley patted me on the shoulder.
"That's a good girl. Now eat up everyone. It's a long trip to Hogwarts."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The ride to Kings Cross Station was cramped.Well I suppose that was to be expected with
six Weasleys plus five all crammed into one car. I was practically sitting on Harry's lap
and Ginny was ,too,on his other side. Hannah and Sarah *were* sitting on Fred and George's
laps,which Mrs. Weasley did not seem all to pleased with. Ron and Hermione were in the front
between Mr. and Mrs. Weasley,sitting a bit closer thatn necessary if you ask me. We were all
more than thrilled to get out of the car. We all climbed out and drug our junk out of the trunk.
We took all our stuff to platform nine and stopped in front of the barrier.
"Well,go through."Harry whispered. I stared at him.
"What?!?!?"I cried as Ron and Hermione disappeared. My jaw dropped."How did they...where did
they...what?"Harry laughed as Ginny walked "into" the barrier. He grabbed my arm and pulled me
forward.
"Go."he said. I shook my head.
"No.You go ahead.I'll stay here."I said.
"No you won't."he said and before I could stop him he grabbed me around the waist and pulled.I
closed my eyes and waited to hit.
"Ok.We're through."Harry said,letting go of me. I opened my eyes and looked at the huge scarlet
steam engine.
"Wow."I said. Harry laughed.
"Come on. Let's go find everyone else."he said. We grabbed our stuff and climbed aboard the train.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Okay so this would be chapter one. Ya like it? Ya hate it? R/R please!!!! :)
And now on with the story

"We are going to take floo-powder to Diagon Alley. Here take this."he said, handing me a small
pouch of what looked a bit like sand. I stared at him.
"Take a pinch and throw it into the fire. Yell Diagon Alley and hop in the fire, and there you go.
Just be sure to keep your hands at your sides."he said. I was a bit confused but I did what I was
told. I gave my mom a hug goodbye and threw some of the powdery stuff in the fire.
"D-Diagon Alley."I said, in as loud of a voice as I could manage.The flames turned blue and I

"Hermione, why are you getting all those extra books. Aren't school books enough?"I heard a
tall red haired boy asked a girl with bushy brown hair. The girl looked at him.

"Pefect, Kass."she said. I smiled. I walked over to where Harry was sitting in a chair and

"Hold those."I said. He nodded and I went to get my work robes.
I had just picked up four sets of black robes and was taking them to Harry to hold when I ran
into someone.I dropped the robes and we both knelt down to pick them up at the same time.
I looked to see who I'd ran into.
"HELLO!"I thought."Wow, he's yummy." We stood up and he handed me the robes. I stared
into silvery eyes (a/n:now, who could that be?)and became entranced. Just then someone
called me.
"Kassi, we're leaving. Hurry up."It was Harry. I mumbled a meak thank you to the hottie with
the silver eyes and walked back to where Harry was. He handed me my dress robes and put
a pointy hat on my head."Hurry up."he said. I nodded and went to pay for my stuff. When I
got to the counter I saw a box of silver hair things. I got a set of hair sticks, two scrunchies,
a head band, and some clips and payed for my stuff. The lady put it in a bag and I hurried
outside to catch up to everybody.
"It's about time."Sarah said.
"I found hair things." I said. The three girls nodded and Harry shook his head.
"What is it with girls and hair?"he asked as we walked towards a store called Quality Quidditch
Supplies. When we went in Harry insisted I buy a broom so I could try out for quidditch. I wasn't
sure what quidditch was but I got one anyway. He picked it out because I had no idea which was
which. I got a Firebolt. He said that was the one he had. He wanted me to get some quidditch
robes but Ginny told me not to until I found out what house I was in. I listened to her and didn't
buy the robes. Harry also picked out brooms for Hannah and Sarah. They got Nimbus 2001
because they didn't want four people to end up on the same team with the same broom. We
payed for our brooms and left, having to drag Harry out the door.
"What else do you guys need Kassi?"Ginny asked. I pulled out my list.
"Um, we need wands, a cauldron, 5th year potions kit, a crystal ball, and we can get an animal."
I said. Automatically Ginny grabbed my arm and drug me to the pet shop. I bought a small
black cat with green eyes(a/n:cliche witch cat I know). Sarah bought a big brown owl and Hannah
bought a small silvery white owl. We left there and went to Ollivander's Wands.
"Hmm."the old man said."Try this one."He handed me a wand and sparks flew out of the end.
"Thought so. Hickory,nine inches, unicorn hair."I paid him and we all left. The last place we went
was the Apothecary. I bought a large black cauldron and my potions kit and we left. Then we
went to meet Hagrid at the Leaky Cauldron which was where Ginny and Harry had to meet Ginny's
mom.
"So ye know yer gonna stay here ta night don't cha?"Hagrid asked. We nooded.
"Oh nonsense. There is no reason for them to stay here when the could stay with us."Mrs.
Weasley said. "You are going to stay with us and that's final. End of discussion." We nodded
and she ran off to scold Ginny's older brother's, Fred and George. We looked at Hagrid.
"Oh I ain't gonna argue with her. Molly's a pill when she's mad."Hagrid said. I looked at Harry.
"Aw, come on Kass, it'll be fun."he said, putting his arm around my shoulders. I yawned.
"Whatever."I said, laying my head on Harry's shoulder. I was too tired to argue. We left about
an hour later. When we got to the Weasley's house I went to Ginny's room and took a nap before
dinner. I was worn out.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry woke me up about an hour later.
"Kassi, wake up."he said,shaking my shoulder gently. I groaned and covered my head with a
pillow."Okay that's it. Get up."He pulled the pillow from my grasp and tossed it on the floor.
"It's time for dinner."Still I didn't budge. He grabbed my arms and pulled me up off the bed.
I sat back down."I was hoping I wouldn't have to do this."And before I could object he picked
me up and slung me over his shoulder. I screamed as he carried me out of the room and down
to the kitchen. Everyone was staring at us. "Uh... she wouldn't get up."Harry mumbled,setting
me down on the floor. He turned bright red and sat down in a chair. I did the same.Ron looked
quizzically at Harry, who looked down at his plate. I shook my head and took a bite of my mashed
potatoes(a/n:I love mashed potatoes!). We ate in silence for a while.
"This is really good, Mrs. Weasley."Hannah said. Mrs. Weasley smiled warmly at her.
"Why thank you dear. It is a family recipe."Mrs. Weasley said.
"Mum, makes the best fried chicken and mashed potatoes."Fred said. George laughed.
"It's not Christmas yet, Fred. No need to suck up already."Ginny said. We all laughed and Fred
glared at Ginny. I finshed quickly because I wanted to do something while no one was around.
"May I be excused?"I asked. Mrs. Weasley nodded. I got up quickly and started to run out of
the kitchen.
"Don't run Kassi."Mrs. Weasley called. I slow down til she couldn't me then I ran the rest of the
way to Ginny's room, closing the door behind me. I ran over to my trunk and pulled out my
battery powered cd player.A mix cd that my older sister made me was in it. I turned it on
and started dancing. I dance whenever I am stressed or nervous. I got so into my dancing that
I didn't hear the door open. I just kept right on dancing. "I Hope You Dance" came on and I
started singing along. George, who had been the person who had opened the door walked up
behind me and when I did a pirouette he grabbed my foot. It scared the crap out of me and I
almost fell over but caught myself on the windowsill.
"George,let go of my foot."I cried. He laughed.
"Try and get out of this position."he said. I glared at him.
"I can but you would be better off letting go of my foot before I go crouching tiger hidden dragon
on your ass."I said. He looked confused but let go of my foot.
"Mum said to tell you that dessert would be ready in half an hour."he said.
"Okay. I'll be down in a sec."I said. He nodded and left.
I sighed and turned off my cd player. I put it away and walked downstairs.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Everyone,minus Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, was sitting in the living room. Harry saw me come in and
scooted over. I sat down beside him on the couch.
"What were you doing up there."he whispered in my ear.
"Dancing."I whispered back. He nodded.
"So, whatcha talkin' 'bout?"I asked.
"Nothin' much."Hannah said.
"Why not. With this many people there's gotta be something to talk about."I said, brushing my
long blonde hair out of my face.
"What house do you think we'll be in?"Sarah asked. Harry thought a moment.
"Well you're smart so you could be Ravenclaw. Kassi you seem to be a wild woman,definetly
Gryffindor."At this comment George and Fred cheered."And Hannah, gee I don't know about
you."Harry said."Guess we'll find out in a couple of days won't we." Hannah nodded.
"Here you go, children."Mrs. weasley said,walking in and setting a large tray of ice cream
sundaes on the coffee table. We all to one and thanked her. She smiled and walked out.
"Your mom is the nicest person I have ever met in my life."I said, taking a bite of my ice cream.
Ginny giggled and George and Fred rolled their eyes.
"She is to you but try being her son."Fred said. Ron smacked him upside the head.
"I like our mom thank you very much."he said. Harry snickered.
"That's 'cause she likes you."George said."But try being one of the "Terrible Twosome" and you'll
know what Fred means, Ronnikins."George said. Ron glared at him.
"I do like you dear, but I don't like you're both together."Mrs. Weasley called from the kitchen.
"Gee, thanks mum. Glad to know you care so much."George said sarcastically.
"Your welcome dear." We all laughed and went back to eating our ice cream.
"We need music."I said after we had all finished."I'll be right back." I stood up and ran up the
stairs. I ran into Ginny's room, grabbed my cd player and cds and rushed back out of the room.
Just outside of the room I ran into a big black dog. It looked at me with curious eyes. I reached
down and stroked it's head. Suddenly the dog moved and started tranforming into a man. I
screamed and rushed to the stairs. I ran into Harry at the top,who had obviously heard me scream
and stopped.
"What?!?"he cried. I pointed in the direction of the man.
"Dog...man...scream..."I gasped,still pointing. Harry looked over my shoulder at the man standing
in the hall. The man waved and Harry laughed. He ran up to the man and gave him a big bear hug.
I just stared.
"Uh...Harry...you mind introducing me to the dog-man in the hall?"I asked, walking cautiously
towards them. Harry laughed again.
"Kass, this is my godfather, Sirius. Sirius, this is Kassi Parker. She is going to start Hogwarts this
year with her friends but she will be in my year." Harry said. I extended my hand slowly but Sirius
pushed it out of the way and hugged me. I was startled at first at this very open display of affection
but then I was okay and I hugged him back. Harry grinned and Sirius released me.
"Sirius, what are you doing here?"Harry asked. Sirius turned to him and smiled.
"You will never guess."he said.
"I know. That's why I asked instead of guessing. Now tell me!"Harry cried. Sirius laughed.
"I've been cleared!"he cried. Harry's face brightened and he hugged Sirius again. Sirius held
onto him and swung him around. He set him on the floor with a thud and we heard several pairs
of feet running up the stairs. Ron and Hermione were at the front of the pack.They looked at
Harry then at Sirius.
"Guess what."Sirius said,grinning broadly.
"You were cleared weren't you?"Hermione asked. Sirius nodded furiously. Hermione ran to him
and threw her arms around him. He picked her up and swung her around. Then he put her down
and hugged Ron. I could tell at that moment that Sirius was a very lovable person.
"Sirius,that's great. Now Harry can live with you."Ron said. Sirius nodded. Ron and Hermione
looked at Harry and they all had one large group hug.
"Aw...group hug!"Fred cried as he threw himself at them. I laughed and shook my head. They
were such a funny group.
"If I may be so forward,what were you cleared of Sirius."I asked. He turned to me.
"Murder."he said bluntly. My jaw dropped. How in the hell could anyone ever think a man this
lovable was a murder. CRAZY!
"No way! They actually thought you did it?!?!? I can tell already that you could never do something
like that."I said. He grinned and hugged me again.
"You know how long it's been since someone said something like that to me? Years! Thank you
so much, Kassi. You have no idea what that means to me!"he cried,squeezing me tightly.
"Uh...could you maybe let go now. I can't breathe."I choked out. He laughed and released me.
"Where are you going to stay, Sirius?"Harry asked.
"That,my boy, is the best part. I am going to be a teacher at Hogwarts!"Sirius said. Harry's smile (if
possible)grew wider.
"Yes! Finally a teacher I'll like!!!!"Harry cried, dancing around the hallway. Sirius laughed.
"I thought you like Remus."Sirius said.
"I did but you are way better!"Harry said,still dancing. He looked like an idiot. I grabbed his shoulders
and he stopped.
"Harry,as a concerned citizen,I can not allow you to do that in public."I said. He laughed.
"Okay, I'll refrain from the dancing."he said. Then he picked me up and swung me around."I'll
use you to display my happiness." I laughed and hugged him.
"Okay as long as you don't dance because what you just did here...that was just wrong."I said. He made
a mock hurt face and I smiled at him. He swung me around again and set me down. Just as my feet
touched the ground Mrs. Weasley came up the steps, followed by whom I guessed was another Weasley.
This one had a long red ponytail. I hadn't seen him yet. I realized Harry still had his arms around me and
we took two very large steps away from each other. The look Mrs. Weasley was giving me was enough to
make me want to become a nun.
"Oh,hello Sirius. What are you doing here?"Mrs. Weasley asked, still giving me the evil eye.Sirius ran up to
her and hugged her.
"Guess what, Molly. I've been cleared!"he cried. She smiled and hugged him back.
"That's wonderful, Sirius. I'm am very happy for you. I knew you didn't do it!"she said. He hugged her tightly
and released her.
"How are you doing, Bill? How are the goblins treating you?"Sirius asked, turning to the man with the ponytail.
He smiled.
"The goblins are treating me just fine, thanks."he said,beaming at Sirius."In fact I just got a promotion. That's
why I'm here." Suddenly I heard the pitter-patter of small feet pounding the steps. Ginny emerged at the top
and ran into Bill's arms.He picked her up and hugged her tightly.
"How are you doin' baby sister."he asked. She hugged him tightly.
"Bill, I missed you so much. What are you doing here? How long are you staying. I'm so glad you came."Ginny
cried, very fast.
"I missed you to, Gin. I got a promotion. I am staying 'til you leave for Hogwarts. I'm glad I came to."he said,
answering her question all at once. She giggled happily and he put her down. I looked at the age difference
between Bill and Ginny. Big difference!
"So excactly how many Weasley kids are there?"I asked. Mrs. Weasley looked at me.
"Well I'll start at the beginning. There's Bill,Charlie,Percy,George,Fred,Ron,and Ginny. Plus if you count in-laws
you have Fern,Abby,and Penelope."she said. My jaw dropped.
"Wow."was all I said.She smiled and lead Sirius and Bill downstairs. The rest of us followed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The morning that we were to go to Hogwarts was far to early for my taste. Mrs.
Weasley woke us up at 5:00am, then she woke me up at 6:00am, then Harry,Ginny,
Hannah,and Sarah literally drug me down to breakfast at 7:00am (obviously I'm not
a morning person.) So they got me to the table where I layedmy head down on the table
and almost fell asleep when Ginny pulled my head up off the table by my hair.
"Okay,I'm awake!"I cried. She laughed and let go.
"I thought that would work."she said.I rolled my eyes and ate a piece of toast.
"There I ate can I go back to bed now?"I whined.
"NO!"Harry,Ginny,Hannah,Sarah,and Mrs. Weasley cried all at once.
"Kassi,you are up,you are staying up.You are to big of a pain to get back up later."
Harry said. I glared at him.
"Well you are the expert in that department aren't you Harry."Ginny said.Harry turned
red and went back to his oatmeal.
"Kassi,you still have packing to do anyway."Hermione piped up from the doorway.
She walked in and sat down next to Harry.
"Oh...yeah...I forgot about that."I got up to go upstairs but Bill grabbed my arm and
pulled me back down in my seat.
"While you are in the Weasley house you will eat like a Weasley."he said as Mrs.
Weasley rolled about eight sausages onto my plate. Ginny filled my glass with milk.
"But..."I started but Harry cut me off.
"Don't bother arguing because they'll make you eat it anyway."he whispered in my ear.
I groaned and ate.Mrs. Weasley patted me on the shoulder.
"That's a good girl. Now eat up everyone. It's a long trip to Hogwarts."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The ride to Kings Cross Station was cramped.Well I suppose that was to be expected with
six Weasleys plus five all crammed into one car. I was practically sitting on Harry's lap
and Ginny was ,too,on his other side. Hannah and Sarah *were* sitting on Fred and George's
laps,which Mrs. Weasley did not seem all to pleased with. Ron and Hermione were in the front
between Mr. and Mrs. Weasley,sitting a bit closer thatn necessary if you ask me. We were all
more than thrilled to get out of the car. We all climbed out and drug our junk out of the trunk.
We took all our stuff to platform nine and stopped in front of the barrier.
"Well,go through."Harry whispered. I stared at him.
"What?!?!?"I cried as Ron and Hermione disappeared. My jaw dropped."How did they...where did
they...what?"Harry laughed as Ginny walked "into" the barrier. He grabbed my arm and pulled me
forward.
"Go."he said. I shook my head.
"No.You go ahead.I'll stay here."I said.
"No you won't."he said and before I could stop him he grabbed me around the waist and pulled.I
closed my eyes and waited to hit.
"Ok.We're through."Harry said,letting go of me. I opened my eyes and looked at the huge scarlet
steam engine.
"Wow."I said. Harry laughed.
"Come on. Let's go find everyone else."he said. We grabbed our stuff and climbed aboard the train.
