He loves me, He loves me not

Chapter 1- Reggie comes to town

Ron opened his letter very quickly, excited to see who had written it, his cousin, Regina. George, Ginny, and Fred stood by his side eager to see what she had written to the Weasley family. Regina lived all the way in the U.S.A., and also went to a wizarding school. A school which was supposedly twice as big Hogwarts itself. Ron looked up from the 2 page long letter in shock.

"So, what's happening with Reggie? Why'd she write us the letter?" George asked impatiently.

"You won't believe what happened!" Ron said in a very girlish squeal.

"Well I don't know what happened yet, so I don't know if I can believe it! Just tell us already!" Fred yelled.

"Her school was taken over by demons," Ron started, "The whole school was evacuated and sent to schools all over the world now. Reggie was sent over to Hogwarts. She wants to know if she can just stay this school year. Uncle Henry and Aunt Dot will stay in the states while she's here. Supposedly the school doesn't know if it'll be closed down forever or just this year."

"THIS WILL BE SO COOL! Having another girl in the house! When is she coming?" Ginny exclaimed.

"Well if mum will let her stay, she'll be coming next week. Which is only a week until school starts up again." Ron said.

The 4 of them ran to Mrs. Weasley and handed her the letter. She screamed in shock.

"Honestly what has the wizard world come too!?! All these Demons and shit around hurting us! It's up surd!" she exclaimed.

"Mum! Language!" Ginny said.

"Oh hun, when I'm mad I can curse." She responded.

"So can she stay?" Ron excitedly asked. Reggie and Ron were both the same age, both going into their 6th year in school. When they were younger they would always play together, but they haven't seen eachother in so long, at least 8 years. Knowing that he'd be able to see her everyday for the whole year would make him so happy.

"Well of course children! Ginny she'd have to sleep in your room until you kids go back into Hogwarts. I will write a letter now to Aunt Dot. I think Dumbledore already knows that she's coming, so I don't need to write a letter to him." Mrs. Weasley said. She then went away to write her letter.

Ginny, Fred, and George ran into the living room to talk about the arrival of their cousin, while Ron went into his room to write a letter to Harry and Hermione to tell them about the news.

------------------------------------

Before you knew it, a week had flown by and Reggie just arrived at the Burrow.

"Hello? Anyone here?" Reggie said while knocking at the door.

"REGGIE'S HERE!" said Ron and Ginny, as they ran to the door and threw it open. Ginny hugged her first while Ron waited his turn.

"Wow, Reg you look, hmm, hmm great!" Ron said shyly. She had grown so much since their last encounter with eachother. Her hair was an almost red color, like a strawberry blonde, and her eyes, a gorgeous shade of hazel. She was about 5 foot 6 inches tall and very skinny...a turn on to lots of guys. She had a short skirt on and a shirt, and a pair of sunglasses, which she realized she sure didn't need. She carried 5 suitcases and her wand in her pocket.

"Well you don't look to shabby yourself, cuz. Man actually you look great. I can see the red hair runs in the family." Reggie said, taking off her sunglasses and giving Ron a hug.

"My 2 best friends should be coming over soon to meet you. Well actually they'll be staying with us until school starts." Ron told Reggie.

"Oh cool, well what's their names?" she asked.

"Hermione Granger and Harry Potter." he answered her.

"Oh a girl! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Ronnie's got a girlfriend! Ohhhhhhhhhh kissy kissy," she said, whle making fun of him "Oh Ron and Hermione---OH MY GOSH!" Reggie stopped in midsentence, "Harry Potter!?! You said Harry Potter!? He's your best friend?"

"Um yeah....is that so big?" Ron said, astonished that she knew about his best friend.

"He's known all over school! Well he's the boy who lived!" she shouted.

"Reggie? REGGIE! Oh come here everyone! Reggie's arrived!" Mrs. Weasley shouted, everyone ran after her. Reggie gave everyone a big hug.

"Ron you knew she was here and didn't tell us? Honestly Ron, you should tell us when our guest has arrived! Men..................." Mrs. Weasley said. "Well let's all sit down to eat lunch, Reggie are you very hungry after your long trip over?"

"Well not really. I mean New York time is 6 hours behi----" she was cut off mid sentence by her aunt.

"Good I'm glad your hungry! I made roastbeef and cheese sandwiches." Mrs. Weasley said while they all walked to the dining room table.

"Um well is there anything thats not fatning, and doesn't have bread? Like salad?" Reggie asked.

"Salad dear? Well why do you want salad?" Mr. Weasley asked.

"Well you see, in USA, we're all on low carb diets. So we eat like no bread. Salad is good, so is fish, and chicken, you know stuff with like no carbs." Reggie said, while she sat in her seat next to Fred.

"I tell you that President over there has controlled the poor people's lives!" Mr. Weasley whispered. Mrs. Weasley elbowed him in the ribs.

"Well actually, the Pres doesn't do anything. He just goes on his ranch down in Texas and----" Reggie said, but once again interupted by her aunt.

"Ok let's not make this a political talk! I'll make you a salad Reggie." Mrs. Weasley said, stomping into the kitchen.

-------------------------------------------------

After lunch, Reggie put her things in her room. Then before you knew it another knock was at the door.

"Harry and Hermione are here!" Ron yelled at the top of his lungs. He then gave each one of his friends a hug.

Reggie crept down the stairs, unknowing of who she was about to meet. She wondered if they were mean, nice, or plain creepy. Maybe the wonderful Harry Potter isn't what she thought he'd be. She reached the bottom of the stairs and fixed her skirt, making sure it looked fine. She looked towards the door with all the Weasley's already crowding around the new guests.

"Oh here she is! Harry, Mione, this is my cousin Reggie." Ron said, introducing his cousin with his friends. Reggie and Hermione shook hands. Reggie thought she looked very nice and intelligent(oh she has no idea). When Harry and Reggie shook hands, she couldn't keep her eyes off him. He looked just like she thought he would. Black hair, perfectly round hair, and a scar on his forehead. Harry thought Reggie looked pretty hot.

"Why don't you guys help Harry and Hermione up to the rooms." Mr. Weasley told the kids to do.

Ginny, Hermione, Harry, Reggie, and Ron, all ascended up the stair case. The girls all went into Ginny's room, while the guys went into Ron's room. Reggie watched Hermione unpack all her clothes. She was amazed at what she saw.............robes, robes, and yes even more robes. After everyone was unpacked they went into Ron's room to get "acquainted".

"So what's it like in America?" Hermione asked, eager to know more.

"Well it's pretty much like here. The weather's not as rainy though. We wear different clothes. Yeah i dunno...........I guess we talk different too." Reggie responded. She saw Hermione's cat and asked about her.

"What a pretty cat you have!" Reggie said, while Crookshanks came over to her and made her pet her.

"This is Crookshanks. I noticed you don't have an owl," Hermione said.

"Well my owl, Prina, was killed by a demon," Reggie said sadly.

"I'm sorry about that," Ginny said. "Those demon's are so rude! I can't beleive such a thing could even happen!"

"Yeah I know! So what city do you live in?" Hermione asked.

"New York City, in the wizard part. Which muggles don't even know about. I went to Badgersnorts Wizarding School. It was close to Syracuse, NY, that's north of the city." Reggie said.

"HOpefully the demon's will get away from the school," Hermione said.

"Yep, hopefully the school is not going to stop teaching." Reggie said, looking down at her fingers. It then went dead silent..............

"SO, do you have a boyfriend?!" Harry suprisingly asked. Everyone laughed at him. For once he was actually humiliated.

"Well no, actually I don't," Reggie said, still laughing a bit.

"Dinner!" Mrs. Weasley shouted from down the stairs. All of the kids ran out and went down to the table.

-----------------------------------------

They sat down to eat chicken, which Reggie didn't even think people who lived here ate.

"Well with school starting for you 5 in a week, I was thinking about us going to Diagon Alley tommorow!" Mr. Weasley announced.

"Oh great! I was hoping to get my books right away. And Reggie needs an owl!" Hermione said, noticing Reggie had no idea what Diagon Alley was. "Reggie, Diagon Alley is where all wizards go to shop for school supplies and more."

"Oh great! I can't wait!" Reggie said. Everyone went on eating their meal. After cleaning up and talking a little more, the kids were tired and went to bed.

Reggie thought it was going to be great here. She couldn't wait to see what would happen next.
