Chapter 2
You wake up about midnight or so to the little noises of Rouge trying to get your attention. You groan while you open your eyes to the big brownish-red eyes of your only friend in America. You sit up with Rouge clinging to the front of your bathrobe. You look down at your precious little baby (A/N: that what you think of her.), and a small smile forms on your face as you lift your hand to pet her. After about five minutes of petting her you stop and take Lily's letter out of the little container that has a leather strap to go across Rouge's chest. You unroll the parchment and started to read it:
Hey Ray-Ray,
My summer break has been great so far, and I asked my parents if you could stay for the rest of the summer and they said that it was ok that you could stay and also that they would owl Headmaster Dippet to see if you could stay for the last two years of school at Hogwarts. I think it would be wonderful if you could and then you could meet all of my friends. So come as soon as possible. We already have a room for you…Oh, gtg. Well see you when you get here
Love lots,
Lily
"Oh thank you so much!" you whisper, for fear if you speak too loud your father would hear.
You look at Rouge and say "Rouge, I want you to go ahead to Lily's and stay there. I'll be there as soon as I can."
Without waiting for a response watch her fly off at an alarming rate so that when you blinked, she was gone. Then all of a sudden you hear the front door open and slam shut, you get up and look out the attic window to see both your dad and his girlfriend are leaving, going into the car and you watch them drive down the street and the turn the corner. You then quickly move the heavy box from the attic trap door and go to your room and pack everything you want: Clothes, books, your sketch books (full, blank, and half blank), all your art supplies, bathroom stuff, fruit bat things for rouge, and anything else you need into your two trunks. Then you run downstairs to the fire place where the floo powder is, you put down both of you trunks in the fire place and make sure that there is enough room for you. You grab a hand full of floo powder and say Lily's address while throwing the powder down into the fire pit. You feel the green flames lick up your legs and in a puff; you are in the Evans' living room.
"Hello, who's there?" you hear Lily's Mother say.
"It's me Mrs. Evans, Raven." You say back. As you walk out onto the cream colored carpet, you hear Lily running down the stairs and into the living room yelling your name while hugging you tightly. But as she hugs you, you wince but make no noise or facial expression so that she doesn't notice anything wrong.
