*Note-Me and my friend wrote this years ago when we both were into Harry Potter alot. This is what happened with our fandom. Also, I think we might have used some pharses or sections of the book in particular to go along with our original ideas. So enjoy what we have because I highly ever think that this shall be completed. We just don't have the time for it now. Sorry.*

"Yes, but what if I refuse to take out the trash, then what Uncle?"

"Well, then I guess we won't be going to Diagon Alley tomorrow."

"Uncle Dumbledore, that's not fair!"

"Rose, life is not fair, I am an old man, and I can't be taking the trash out."

"I know, you knew I was going to take it out all along, didn't you?"

"I have to admit, yes, I did know. But I will keep my promise about tom…" Right then an owl came.

"Is it from my parents!!??" asked Rose excitedly.

After pausing to read the letter, Professor Dumbledore replied, "No dear, just Hogwarts business. Now, as I was saying, I will take you to Diagon Alley tomorrow so you can buy your supplies. I need to go to the school tomorrow, so I can't stay with you, but I will give you money and your list so you can buy your supplies like a big girl. Don't buy any animals because animal buying is not in the budget this year, all right?"

"All right, Uncle. What are we going to do for my birthday this weekend?"

"I am not sure yet, but we will do something fun. Now, I do believe there is some trash that needs to be taken out."

"Darn, I was hoping you would forget."

"I might be old, but I am not stupid."

Dear Diary,

Uncle is taking me to Diagon Alley tomorrow. I can't wait!! I have waited for so long to go to Hogwarts and now it is finally going to happen. My birthday is this weekend, I think Uncle is going to surprise me with a cat, but I can't be sure. I am starting to get worried because I haven't gotten a letter from Mom and Dad yet. Maybe they are just really busy. I have heard rumors that You-Know-Who was on the move again and with them being Unspeakables and all, they must be super busy. Though… now that I think about it, I don't really know what they do. I am sure they won't forget.

I heard a rumor that The Harry Potter was going to be at Hogwarts. I hope I can be friends with him. I have only heard great things about his mother and father, so he must be just as nice.

The only thing that made me mad today was that Uncle told me I had to be "Rose Smith" so that the students wouldn't make fun of me for being related to Uncle. I can hold my own ground, but if that is the way he wants it, I can only respect his wishes.

Well until next time.

Love always,

Rose
