He came, he sat, he watched. No one paid attention to the greasy haired boy wearing long robes in the summer. He was the odd one, and he knew that. Kids from the Muggle neighborhoods would whisper behind his back. He heard them as they walked behind him, but he didn't care. As long as he saw her every day, he was happy. He came at the same time every day watching, wanting to speak to her, but never getting the chance. He knew she was full of magic because she showed signs about it.
"There's always tomorrow," he said to himself. He knew he would never talk to her. She was beautiful, and always hung around her sister. Her sister, however, did not have magic. Instead, she had a bad attitude. He knew the unspoken promises the little redhead girl with green eyes would have when she turned eleven. She was getting close now to the age. She knew something was different about her, knew she didn't fit in well, but didn't know why.
"I'll talk to you tomorrow, Lily," he promised himself. He knew her name, of course he did. He often heard her sister speak her name after doing magical things with out realizing it. Tomorrow, he would introduce himself. Tomorrow, he would finally meet a friend, Tomorrow, would be the best day of his life. If only he had the guts to talk to her.
