Do You Remember Harry Potter?
Chapter One
Allison Intrex looked up from her book and saw Dudley Dursley and his friends, Piers, Dennis, Gordon, and Malcolm. She quickly got up out of her seat at the lunch table. Her friends, Amy and Becka did the same thing.
Nobody wanted to be in the way of their gang, who were known for beating up on those who were smaller than them. They usually left Allison alone though, because she was sort of one of Dudley's friends. But that did not mean that she could sit at the lunch table that he wanted to sit at.
The three girls sat down under a tree, because all of the other tables were taken. Allison thought to herself… 'I like eating outside, but I wish we had more tables.'
"I can't believe that those boys are so mean!" Amy exclaimed, as they walked away, "They made us leave our table without even doing anything!"
"I know," Allison replied as she rolled her eyes, "Dudley used to be my friend, but he had gotten so mean lately."
"I feel so sorry for Harry Potter though, he has to live with him all the time." Said Becka.
Amy sniffed, "I don't feel sorry for him," she said, "He never talks to anyone and wears such weird clothing. He is so strange!"
Allison didn't say anything. She knew a few things about Harry that most people did not know. She had known him all her life, sort of, because she lived across the street from him. But the things she knew about him were not very much. When she was younger and she went to play with Dudley, or the other way around, Harry never played with them. A few times he tried, but Dudley chased him off. Whenever Dudley came to Allison's house, Harry would not come with him. A couple times Mrs. Intrex had to baby-sit Dudley, but those times, they sent Harry to someone else.
Allison overheard her parents talk about the Dursleys sometimes, and she knew that Harry came to live with them when his parents died. She also knew that her mother was a friend of Mrs. Potter when they were little girls, and had a secret. Allison did not know what the secret was, only that Mr. and Mrs. Dursleys were ashamed of it.
"Oh no!" Becka cried, "1ook what's happening!"
Allison and Amy whirled around and saw Dudley and his gang chasing Harry and trying to beat him up.
Harry was running as fast as he could, looking for somewhere to hide. Unfortunately, he wasn't looking strait ahead, and he was heading straight for Allison and her friends.
He ran right into Allison, causing her to fall. She screamed in shock.
"Sorry!" He called over his shoulder.
The gang was catching up with him.
Amy helped Allison to her feet, and they chased after the boys. Allison hated seeing people, especially the ones who didn't deserve it, to get beaten up, but on the other hand, fights were always exciting.
Once the reached the side of the building that had the kitchen inside. There were three trashcans by the doors. Harry jumped behind them… but he didn't land. All of the sudden he was sitting on the roof!
Allison gasped. Everyone around began pointing and shouting at Harry. Some of the schoolteachers helped Harry down, but the headmistress looked furious.
That day, after school, Allison and Dudley walked home together as usual. Harry trailed behind him. He never walked with him, which made Allison rather sad. She often wished she could get to know him better, but nobody liked to disagree with Dudley's gang.
"That was really strange," Allison said tentatively as the walked, "How do you suppose he got all the way to the roof?"
"I don't know," Dudley replied, "probably the wind."
Allison glanced back at Harry. He looked so sad. She longed to talk to him. He always seemed so sweet, and even attractive.
"Dudley," Allison asked, "Is Harry going with you to Smeltings?"
"Stonewall" he grunted.
Allison stifled a smile, "Oh."
That night, after dinner, Allison went to the living room, where her family sat in front of a warm fire.
"Mum, you were friends with Harry's real mother, weren't you?"
Mrs. Intrex nodded, "I knew Lily Potter very well before she died," she said sadly.
"How did she die?" Allison asked.
She was told a few years ago that it was a car accident, but she also heard her mother say that it wasn't a car accident to her father.
"Her family told everyone it was a car accident, but that's not true," her mother said honestly, "I will tell you a little about the Potters, but I really cannot tell you the whole thing." She took a deep breath, "When I was your age, Lily was one of my best friends. We were excited about going to the same middle school the next year, but around this time, Lilly got a letter. She was accepted to a school for children with a very rare gift. Her family was freaked out at first, but when her parents talked to the school board, they became excited about it. Her sister, Mrs. Dursley, however was ashamed. That is probably why she does not think too much of Harry.
"Anyway, at that school, Lily met a man whom she married a few years after graduating. After that, she had Harry. But the Potters had an enemy, and he killed Lilly and James on Halloween night. Lily never told me too much about her life, only what I told you now, Allison. There are a few other things though. We live on this street for a reason—which does involve Harry. I will tell you about that sometime when you are older, but not yet."
"What was Mrs. Potter's special gift?" asked Allison, "could she fly or something? Harry flew today somehow. He landed on the roof."
Mrs. Intrex looked puzzled, than a look of happiness appeared on her face.
"Start your homework sweetheart," she said; "I will explain everything when you are older."
Harry was not at school for four days. He missed a lot of school all the time. A few weeks later, it was Dudley's birthday. After that, Harry never showed up at school for the last three and a half weeks of school. He even missed the little graduation ceremony.
"I am glad that he wasn't there," Amy said that night at the after party, "He is so weird, he makes our school look bad."
Allison silently disagreed. She was developing a small crush on him. There were no other guys that she liked from her elementary school. Most of them just did whatever Dudley and his friends told them to do. Harry was different. Although he usually got beat up for it, sometimes Harry tried to stand up for them.
Malcolm Soleil, one of Dudley's gang came over and asked Amy to dance, so they left Allison by herself.
"Hi Allison," Dudley said as he came over to her, "Do you want to dance?"
Allison smiled and nodded as she tried to put her arms around Dudley's large shoulders.
"Where has Harry been?" she asked as they twirled around the dancing floor.
"Um, he has been sick for awhile."
"That's sad that he had to miss graduation," she said softly.
"Whatever," Dudley muttered.
Allison continued to dance that night, with Dudley and a few other boys. None of the boys met anything to her though. The only boy she really cared for was Harry. It made her happy that she actually had a chance with him the next few years. Dudley and his friends were all going to Smeltings, and Harry would be going to Stonewall High like Allison and the rest of her friends.
*ring ring* Allison ran to pick up the phone
"Hello?" she said
"Hey Alli, its Becka," said the caller, "Do you want to go swimming? A bunch of people that are going to Stonewall will be at the pool,"
"Okay," Allison said thinking to herself that Harry might be there.
"Great," said Becka happily, "I am going to call Amy, and my mum will pick you up at your house in a half hour.
They hung up and Allison went to go pack a swim bag. Her mother came into her room.
"Do you know when you will be back?" she asked Allison.
Allison promised to be back before dinner. She went out to her front porch dressed in her silver bikini, which set off her tan. Her dark blonde hair was swept up in a messy bun. She was wearing pink lipstick and mascara. She wanted to look her best in case Harry, or some other cute boy, was at the pool.
When Becka's mother's maroon minivan pulled up into Allison's driveway. Amy and Becka were already in the van waving to Allison. Allison waved back and glanced at Harry's house one last time. She saw the weirdest thing. An owl carrying a piece of paper, and swooping down to the Dursley's door.
