disclaimer: I know this is the first one I've put in so I'd better make it
count. Ihave never owened, nor will I ever own (I guess) Harry Potter or
any of J.K.Rowling's fantastic characters.
Fan fiction - chapter ten
Harry woke in the morning to find the house in turmoil. Tonks, who had stayed the night, had forgotten to pack her broomstick and had tried to find her trunk in the pile in the hallway but had only succeeded in making the trunks tumble down onto Ron's foot, causing him a stubbed toe. Harry dressed quickly and went to help Remus tidy up the mess before breakfast.
When they had finished, he and Remus made their way down to the kitchen where Mrs.Weasley was making breakfast with Hermione's help. Harry sat down next to Ron who was still mumbling death threats under his breath.
'Hows the toe?' Harry asked as Hermione passed them their bowls of porridge. He noted that Ron got a lot more jam on his.
'Painful,' said Ron tucking into his breakfast, 'I just can't wait to get back to Hogwarts.'
'Me niether.' Harry agreed, with the faintest trace of a sigh.
They finished their breakfast in silence and were putting their coats on when they heard the blare of a car horn from outside.
'That'll be the ministry cars.' said Mrs.Weasley distractedly trying to put her coat on backwards.
Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny grabbed their trunks and made their way down the front steps, with Tonks, Kingsley, Remus and Mrs.Weasley in tow. Harry got into a car with Ginny, Tonks and Kingsley and they set off to Kings Cross.
They arrived at the station at a quater to eleven and made their way to platform nine and three-quaters. Mrs.Weasley stopped them at the ticket barrier and devided them into two's. Harry, paired with Remus, went through.
Harry loved riding the Hogwarts Express, the smells, the atmosphere, it all added to the magic of going to Hogwarts. Harry held each one of his train rides fondly in his memory as he walked through the ticket barrier and came out on the other side.
'Harry?' said Remus' voice, 'Harry. Maybe we should put your trunk on the train.'
'Yeah... of course.' said Harry, pulling himself out of his musings to take Hedwig.
Just as Remus was negotiating getting Harry's trunk off his trolley, he heard Ron call his name.
'Harry, oi, Harry. Look who we bumped into.' said Ron emerging from the crowd with Hermione, Ginny and Christina following.
'Hi Harry,' said Christina brightly, 'I was just coming to find you.'
'Hi' said Harry, hesitating.
He couldn't think of anything to say to her, but was saved from making small talk by a small blonde witch with a rather loud voice and an owl in a cage tucked under her arm, who came bustling through the group shouting, 'Tina, you forgotten Charlie!'
Christina blushed and took her mother by the arm, saying 'Way to embarrass me mum.'
'Sorry dear, it's just-' she stopped dead mid-sentence, staring at Remus. 'Oh my god! I don't believe it, Remus Lupin? It's Me, Sarah, Sarah Montgomery. Don't tell me that you've forgotten.'
'Sarah, oh my, it's been at least fifteen years,' he looked around the group, that now contained Tonks, Mrs.Weasley and Kingsley and said, not looking at Harry. 'This is Sarah Montgomery, an old school friend of mine.' He directed his attention back to Christina's mum 'The last time I saw you was at the funeral... how've you been?'
Christina's mother looked around the group, as if she was searching for a way to answer such a difficult question. Her eyes rested on each member of the group, landing on Harry's last of all. When she looked at Harry she took a step backwards as if she couldn't believe her eyes.
'Remus...' she said faintly, grasping his arm for support.
'Sarah, this is Harry Potter. Harry, this is Sarah Montgomery, an old friend of mine,' he hesitated, then continued, 'and of your parents.'
Harry didn't know how to respond, he looked at Christina
