The Dumbledore Line
With a rather bored sigh, Albus looked around the room. He was itching to run around with his cousins, but his parents had insisted that he wait until he had 'properly' greeted everyone. Basically, he wasn't allowed to run off with his cousins while the adults were wishing him a happy birthday.
He stood on the tips of his toes trying to see who had arrived. 'The Dumbledore's were a very old line with many traditions' Albus had been told countless times, 'and these traditions must be continued lest we forget about the wonderful- blah blah blah' As far as Albus was concerned, the tradition of wearing these stuffy robes should be forgotten.
He grinned at Angela as she made her way toward him. She, like the others present, looked like a Dumbledore; Auburn hair (To make it sound more interesting then just 'red' Albus thought), a tall stature, and wearing a pretty yet uncomfortable looking dark blue robe. The only way you could tell she was not a so-called 'pureblood wizard' was her dark brown eyes, so unlike the bright blue that were also a trademark Dumbledore appearance.
"Bored yet?" She asked brightly.
"Terribly." Albus muttered.
She glanced over toward a group of guests with Albus' parents in the middle. Albus' grandparents and great-grandparents, including Wulfric and Brian Dumbledore, from whom Albus got his middle names from, were discussing the problems with the ministry, while Albus parents spoke to the guests about Albus' acceptance to Hogwarts.
Angela sighed, "I'm glad my parents let me live with my muggle relatives for a while during the summer, I don't think I could handle this year- round." Taking one last glance at the adults, "Come on, they'll never notice us if we leave now."
Grabbing a glazed-eyed Aber they snuck out of the living room and went outside. They sat under a tree in the backyard and watched Aber's baby goat wobble around on unsteady legs.
"So," Angela asked after a while, "Are you nervous about going to Hogwarts?"
"A bit," Albus admitted, "My grandparents have already given me the 'don't bring shame on the family' speech."
"What about your mum and dad?" Angela inquired as she watched Aber chase the goat away from a flowerbed.
"They just told me to do my best." Albus said gloomily, "What if-"
"Don't worry," Angela cut him off, "You already know a lot about magic with all those books you read, and Aber can help you.... but only if you're desprate...."
Albus chuckled softly, it was a well known fact that Aber was not the best of students.
"You'll do fine. I've never been inside Hogwarts, but a lot of my friends go there and say it's great."
"Oh yeah," Albus said remembering suddenly, "Don't you go to that French magic school?"
"Beauxbatons," Angela said promptly, she opened her mouth again but was cut off by a squeaky voice.
"Yous three is being very naughty! Yous should be in the living room you is. Hurry up, Master and Misstress is wanting to began."
The three children all nodded and hurried in the house, past the house-elf Radella.
