Prologue

Harry was sitting on his bed reading a letter from Hermione when his aunt came and knocked on the door.

"May I come in Harry?" she asked from the door way.

Harry put his letter down and turned to his aunt. "Sure, sit down." He offered her a chair and looked at her amazed. This was the first time she had ever been nice to him.

Petunia pulled out a box and gave it to Harry. "Inside is a picture of your parents and godfather, letters from your mother to me and a picture of one of their houses."

Harry's jaw dropped and he looked at her, "One of their houses! How many did my parents have?"

Petunia smiled at Harry. He knew so little of the wealth of his parents and their love for him and she pitted him. "Well the picture inside is of their summer home in Ireland, near some Qid-ip-itch pitch. Some Ireland team played really close to them. They lived right by the sea." Petunia closed her eyes as if remembering something long forgotten. "Lily said the waves would crash late at night and you would fall asleep in your father's arms."

Harry smiled to himself and wondered if he would ever be able to see that again.

"Two houses are here in England, the one in Godric's Hallow is not really there anymore and the other one is somewhere on the west coast. The last house is somewhere in Italy. Lily always wanted to live in Italy and your father inherited the house for their honeymoon." Then she opened her eyes and Harry saw that they were watering. "I think you should read some of those letters and dinner is a six." With that she got up and left Harry to his own thoughts.

To Come:

"Harry is everything okay?" "Fine Mione, just leave me alone."

"So why didn't you tell me this before, they where my parents and I should have known." "Yes you should have but I was waiting until you really needed it."

"Aunt Petunia you can come with me if you want to get away from Uncle Vernon."

"But Harry…" "No Hermione, you're with Ron and that's for the best." "But Harry, I never really liked Ron."

Well that is it. Hope you liked the beginning. I will be updating soon.
