Harry Potter: What Should Have Happened
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Harry Potter and all the other characters that belong to J.K. Rowling even though I wish I did. Drat!
AN: All the stars by words are probably something I made up because I don't know any spells. But enjoy anyway!

"James, are you ready to go? The train leaves in a little less an hour and half and we still need time to get there!" James' father yelled down the hall to his son.
"Dad, I'll be right there. It's not easy packing for a whole year!" James called back.
"James, you know that they give you your uniform there don't you? You have your robes, parchment, books, quill, and ink and most importantly your toothbrush/ toothpaste, underwear and socks. What else do you need?" Mr. Potter was now in James' bedroom where he noticed all of his son's belongings on the ground! "Now, we're really going to be late!"
"I'm almost ready, just hold on a sec."
"Right. Well to make things easier," Mr. Potter pulled out his wand as he spoke, "*'Abstergeo Conclave', and while we're at it- something I made up myself- *'Convaso Iam!' Now hurry up or you'll miss the train!"
With that James pick up his trunk and dragged it out to the car and waited for his parents to drive him to King's Cross.
*~*~*
"Lily, it's time to go! We have to get you to the train station!" Mrs. Evans called to her daughter as Lily started to make her way down the stairs lugging her big Hogwarts trunk behind her.
"Mum, I'm afraid I forgot something!" Lily complained but hurried downstairs anyway.
"If you did then call me, no wait send me an owl since they don't believe in phones at that school! I'll send you whatever you want even candy to share with the new friends you'll be making!" Mrs. Evans stated then heard Petunia laugh at Lily when she said 'friends'.
"Yeah, right, like Lily is ever going to make friends! Mum she's a freak and she'll never have friends she'll-" Petunia was cut off.
"Petunia Evans, go to your room now and think about what you just said," Mr. Evans, who had just walked into the living room to hear Petunia speak.
"I know what I said, I said the truth, but you two don't want to admit that she is a freak!" and then Petunia stomped off to her room.
"Mum, Dad, do you think I'm a freak?" Lily asked her parents sadly.
"No, dear, we think you are the most wonderful person in the world!" Mrs. Evans told her calmly and then gave her daughter a hug making sure not to squash the beautiful curls in the eleven- year- olds hair. "Now let's go to King's Cross and find out where in the world platform 9 ¾ is before the train leaves!"
*~*~*
"Now, James, just like I told you, you run through the barrier, it's not hard at all, just run at it!" Mrs. Potter had to keep telling James that he would go right through and he knew his mother wouldn't lie to him but the brick wall did look very solid to him. Very solid!
"But, Mum-" James began.
"Excuse me, but do you know where platform 9 ¾ is? I noticed that you had the same trunk as my daughter here and I thought that maybe you would know how to get to the Hogwarts Express so if you could help us I would be deeply grateful," Mrs. Evans was standing in front of the barrier with her hat in her hand looking very concerned that Lily wouldn't be able to make her train.
"Oh, yes, I was just showing my son here how to get through the barrier," Mrs. Potter told the anxious adult. "Come along now James, there is no since argue over it, you'll have to go through the barrier whether you like it or not! James, James, what are you looking-" Then Mrs. Potter noticed that James had been looking at the woman's young girl.
"It's you!" they said at the same time with the same form of familiarness as before.
"Who's who?" the parents asked.
"It's her." James said pointing.
"It's him." Lily said at the same time as James and also pointed.
"What are you talking about? You don't even know each other!" Mrs. Evans tried to explain.
"Yes, I do know him. This is James Potter! I'm not sure how I know him but I do." Lily explained confused.
"And this is. Lily Evans! I am also at a loss as to how I know you!" James stated also confused.
Then without warning Mr. And Mrs. Potter smiled widely and started to laugh but wouldn't say why. All they said was, "In time you'll find out, in time!" and then they went through the barrier to leave the four bewildered people left to figure out whatever was going on.
