A Night at Privet Drive
Danielle awoke early one morning. She got out of bed and dressed quietly so she would not wake Sara or Ginny. Sara stirred a little as Danielle shut the door on her way out, but was soon sleeping soundlessly once again.
Danielle went down to the kitchen, but no one was up yet. Danielle wasn't surprised it was very early. She got herself a glass of water and went outside to her secret place.
The Weasley's had a wonderful house, there was never a dull moment with six children and two adults. The three eldest brothers had moved out and had their own places.
Their backyard was incredible. Mrs. Weasley kept a beautiful garden; the only problem was the gnomes.
There was a hill on the back on their property with tall trees surrounding it. This is where they went to play Quidditch when they could.
At the base of the hill, right in the middle of all the trees there was a little pond. It was obvious that the Weasley children had played there by a rope tied to a near by tree that someone could swing on and jump into the middle of the pond.
Danielle loved the little pond. She could sit on a big rock that was there and imagine a young Ron, Ginny, Fred and George playing there.
Danielle always found someplace to go and be by herself no matter where she was.
Today was July 29th. She could remember exactly what she was doing a year ago today. She had run away from the orphanage that she had grown up in. It had been the best thing to ever happen to her. She had found her way into the secret magical community into which she was born. She found her twin brother and had fallen in love.
Today she was going with Mr. Weasley to stay with Harry for a night and then Ron and Mr. Weasley were going to come get them both for a birthday celebration.
Danielle had missed Harry a lot over the past couple weeks, and was really looking forward to seeing him. Danielle sat on the rock for a while lost in thought.
She could see the sunrise through the trees and decided she should go back to the house. Everyone knew that Danielle had a secret place that she went at least once a day, but Mrs. Weasley forbade any of them to try and follow her there. Even her boyfriend Ron didn't know where she went.
As Danielle entered the kitchen she was suddenly pushed to the ground.
"Danny!" A little girl named Sara said loudly as she jumped on Danielle. Danielle laughed as she gave Sara a hug then got to her feet.
"You weren't here when I woke up" Sara said with a little pout.
"Sorry my Sweetest Sara." Danielle said using the nickname that Tim and Danielle had given Sara years ago at the orphanage. Danielle was called "Dearest Danny" and Tim was "Terrific Tim."
"I needed some time to clear my head before I go see Harry this morning." Danielle said to Sara. Sara smiled and passed her the stack of golden brown pancakes Mrs. Weasley had made.
When Danielle finished eating she excused herself and went upstairs to get ready. Sara flowed her.
"Do you have to go Danny?" Sara asked pouting again.
"You put that lip away young lady," Danielle said in a mock-serious voice that made Sara laugh. Sara had an infectious laugh and soon both girls were laughing hard.
When they recovered from their laughing fit Danielle looked at Sara and said, "Yes, I have to go visit Harry. It's only for one night and them I'll bring him back with me."
Sara didn't pout this time; she smiled. "I like Harry, he's nice."
Sara said as Danielle headed downstairs with her backpack. "Are you ready Danielle?" Mr. Weasley asked taking her backpack from her.
"Yes, I think I am." Danielle said and smiled at him.
None of the Weasley's like the Dursley's and were not happy about sending Danielle there. "Here is a parcel of food for you and Harry, Dear." Mrs. Weasley said handing it to her.
"Thank you." Danielle said and waved goodbye to the whole crew.
Shadow jumped in the car before Danielle cold stop her, but decided that shadow could come after all.
As the Weasley's new car pulled out of the driveway, she saw Ron blow her a kiss. She blushed lightly and caught it.
She spent the car ride talking with Mr. Weasley.
"So, Ron and I will be back tomorrow at three to pick you both up." He said about a block away from 4 Privet Drive.
"Okay, we'll be ready. Thank you for the ride." Danielle said as she got out of the car.
She walked up to the door with Shadow close at her heals. Before she got to the door the door was opened and her brother pulled her into a tight hug.
"Oh, It's so good to see you!" Harry exclaimed leading her into the house. He took her bag and the package of food from her and took them up to the guest room.
Once Danielle had seen where she was going to sleep, Harry took her down to meet the family. "Okay, I apologize for what ever happens." Harry whispered as they entered the living room where the three Dursleys sat.
When Harry and Danielle walked in Dudley just stared at her. Danielle smiled but suddenly felt very self-conscious.
"This is Danielle." Harry said flatly seeing Dudley's expression.
"Hello Danielle, nice to see again." Uncle Vernon said standing up and holding out his hand.
"Thank you for allowing me to spend the night." Danielle said politely as she shook his hand. Aunt Petunia just glared even more when Danielle said this.
"It's good to see you are feeling better." Uncle Vernon said sitting back down. Harry sat down on the empty couch across the room and Danielle followed his example. Dudley was still just staring at Danielle and Harry had to work hard not to laugh. They all sat in silence for a while.
Aunt Petunia broke the silence. "Well, I'm going to go put lunch on. I assume the two of you can manage to set the table." She said nastily as she went into the kitchen.
Harry sighed just loud enough for Danielle to hear and got up and went into the dinning room. "I take it she doesn't like me very much." Danielle said with a little laugh when they were alone in the dinning room.
"I think we both remind her of her hated sister, but you even more than me." Harry said with a sad edge to his voice as he handed her the plates and she set the table while he got the silverware.
They had a light lunch. Everyone got half of a very dry low fat turkey sandwich.
Harry noticed that as usual his half was actually a third but he got very upset when he noticed that Danielle only got a quarter of a sandwich. Harry glared at his Aunt but a pointy elbow in his side made him stop.
"What?" Harry said telepathically to Danielle.
"Just let it go, we have plenty of food up stairs from Mrs. Weasley." Danielle thought back to him. Harry gave her a disgruntled look and when back to eating his lunch.
Danielle ate slowly so that she would finish around the same time as the others. "Thank you very much for lunch, it was very good." Danielle said smiling brightly.
Aunt Petunia glared at her and said, "I need to go to the store, Vernon, Dudley come along." She walked out of the kitchen and Vernon and Dudley followed.
Aunt Petunia yelled from the front door, "I expect that kitchen to be spotless when we get back." Harry sighed and dropped his head on the table.
When he looked up a minute later Danielle was standing over the stove cooking something that smelled delicious. The knives were chopping some carrots and celery. The table where Harry sat was cleared off.
"Danielle!" Harry exclaimed, "We aren't allowed to do magic outside of school."
Danielle laughed and said, "I know, but they can't control my wandless magic."
Harry smiled as she placed a delicious looking salad in front of him with a hot creamy dressing on the side.
"Wow, Aunt Petunia could learn a few things from you. This is still Dudley's rabbit food, but it's edible and tastes great." Harry said between bites.
Danielle smiled a small smile and said, "Well, I have been a cook since I was around five."
Harry's smile faded and he wouldn't look at her for the rest of the meal. He wasn't embarrassed by her; he just didn't know what to say when the topic of the orphanage was brought up.
Danielle cleaned up and set the table for dinner using magic.
"Okay," she said closing her eyes tightly, "I think that's about all I can take for now." Harry only nodded and didn't think anything of it.
Shadow came into the kitchen and meowed loudly. "Okay, okay, I can handle one more." Danielle laughed as she put down some cat food for her.
"We can go play video games until Dudley gets back." Harry said excitedly.
"Sure, but I'm sure I won't be any good." Danielle said as she followed him upstairs.
The Dursleys didn't come home until it was time for dinner. Danielle and Harry ran into Danielle's room and started laughing at their narrow escape.
Soon they heard dishes being put on the table. "We should go down, if they could get away with not calling us, they would." Harry said and Danielle followed him downstairs. They left Shadow in Danielle's room so she didn't start an argument at dinner.
Dinner was about the same as lunch. Danielle was given almost nothing to eat, but she sat politely and smiled. This actually made Aunt Petunia more mad.
Later that night Harry came into say goodnight to Danielle. "Don't worry, we're leaving tomorrow by three." Danielle told him.
"I'm sorry you had to come here." Harry told her telepathically so his Aunt and Uncle wouldn't hear their conversation.
"No, I've enjoyed seeing you and it's nice to know who my family is, even if they are." Danielle didn't finish her telepathic sentence but Harry didn't need her to.
Danielle stopped because she could hear voices in the nest room.
"Well, I think she is a very attractive and well behaved young woman." They heard Uncle Vernon's voice carry through the wall.
"She is so much like that freak who was my sister I can't take it. That little freak is even more beautiful than Lily, but always 'Little Miss Perfect,' just like her." As Aunt Petunia finished her hatred of both Danielle and Lily was clear in her voice.
"Your right, sweetie. She just a little bratty freak like Harry. I don't know what I was thinking." Vernon said with a yawn.
Danielle looked away from the wall and curled up with Shadow. Harry gave her a hug and whispered, "three o'clock."
Danielle laughed and both of them went to bed. Danielle was instantly asleep.
