FUTURE

Chapter 17:Getting Ready and Crushes

A/N:Everyone,I am so sorry it took so long to update. It was my mom's birthday and then I was on vacation at Cedar Point.

It was two weeks after Alexandria had awakened in the hospital wing and she had finally been released. Since that time Harry Arthur and Alexandria had been secretly practicing spells so they could help with the war against Voldemort and the deatheaters. Their parents and Harry,of course did not know what the young teens where planning. If they had in fact,known they would've found a way to stop it.

Lexi was still recovering from what had been done to her and had to use crutches to walk. She still had faint bruises that went up and down her arms and face but they where healing nicely enough. Even with crutches Lexi still practiced spells. It didn't seem to effect her at all.

Alexandria siped at a strand of hair that had fell loose from the braid she had it in and asked breathlessly,"I wonder what mum,dad,and Harry think we are doing? You don't think that they know...d'you?" Her chocolate eyes gazed worriedly torwards a far wall.

"Naw.Of course not. They probably just think we've been busy with homework or friends or something." Harry Arthur said putting an arm across his sister's shoulders with a reassuring smile. "Now lets keep practicing." he walked away from her about eleven feet and pointed his wand at her face.

Lexi smirked at him,one eyebrow raised. She pointed her wand at him as well and shouted,Expelliarmus." Her brother was thrown into a wall roughly. With an "oof" he stood up,dusting off his pants. "I'm gonnaget you for that Alexandria." He growled.

Alexandria giggled and looked at her gold watch,gasping at the time. "Oh no! Harry it's time for class! We had better get going!" she said as she and her brother cast the glamour charm on themselves. Harry Arthur picked up his sister's things and led her to her Transfiguration class,watching as she sat down next to a boy with light brown hair. He raced outside to his Care of Magical Creatures class and took a seat on a large log next to a girl with wavy black hair and blue-green eyes. She turned to him and said,"Hello Chase. I'm Meghan Helingwaters. I heard about your sister,is she okay?"

Harry Arthur(Chase) was surprised at how genuine this girl sounded that he had to like this girl immediatly. He didn't say anything for a few moments until Meghan tilted her head and asked,"Erm,Chase?"

"Huh?Oh yeah. She is gonna be okay. Thanks for asking about her." He said turning red with embarrassment.

She smiled and laughed. "No problem. I've talked to Alexa before. She's a sweet kid." she told him. "Your lucky to have a sister like that. I am an only child and I am always so lonely."

Class started a few moments later but Harry Arthur(Chase) kept glancing at Meghan out of the corner of his eye as they worked.

After class,Alexandria watched as the boy beside her,who's name was Noah picked up her books and bag as well as his own things and led the girl out of her class. "So Alexa,Hogsmeade weekend is on Saturday. Would you like to go with me? A...as friends I mean?" Noah stuttered looking at Alexandria out of the corner of his hazel eyes.

Alexandria smiled brightly at him and said excitedly,"Of course!!!! I'd love to." Then she calmed herself. "I mean...sure. I'd like that.

"Great." Noah said with a shy smile as they both walked into their Defense Against The Dark Arts class.

It was only after this class began that Alexandria thoughtm of how hard it would be to leave this time now that she had a crush on someone. And she didn't even know what she would tell him when she had to leave.
