My Day in Diagon Alley

I woke up at around 9:00 and got dressed really fast. I ran down stairs really fast and ate my breakfast like if I haven't eaten in weeks. As soon as I finished we left to Diagon Alley. When we got there my father said "Here's some money. It's exact for the cost of all your supplies. You'll be on your own. Your mother and I have to take care of some… business." Then they left.

When they left Draco asked me "Did you bring your own money for extra stuff like I did?" I said "Yeah. There's this cool thing I wanna get. I might come in handy if something doesn't work." Draco goes "Oh yeah. What would that be?" I go "None of your business Draco." He goes "You like someone from school don't you? You can't lie to me sis." I go "Yeah. I like someone." Then Draco was like "Who? I promise I won't tell. I don't find it fair that I've had tons of girlfriends and dad won't let you have a boyfriend because he wants you to be a slave and clean the house instead of Dobby." I go "I like Jason Scott." He goes "Not bad. He's perfect for you." I go "Thanks." He goes "Don't mention it. When it would come down to stuff like this I've got your back." Then this girl passes by us and Draco goes "Well heeelllllooo beautiful." Then he looks at me and says "I'm gonna go use the Draco magic if you know what I mean." I go to Draco "Go get her tiger." Draco goes "Oh I will. Meet me back here no later than 4:00 ok." I go "I Will. Later." "Later." Draco can sometimes be as nasty as Voldemort but he can be a pretty good brother.

Everything was going like a normal day until I went to buy my books. I went in the book store and saw Jason. I almost screamed of excitement when I saw him. I decided to act normal. I walked into the store and started getting the books I needed that were the closest to him. He saw me and said "Hey Allyson. What are you doing in Diagon Alley?" I replied in the calmest way that I could think of "I'm buying my supplies for Hogwarts. I got accepted." Jason goes "No way! Me too!" I go "Cool." He goes "Yeah." I chuckled a little. Then I thought "I should tell him that I like him now instead of on the Hogwarts Express." Then using all my courage I said "Listen Jason there's something I have to tell you. Something important." Jason goes "What?" I go "Jason I – ""Jason let's go" Then Jason says "I'm sorry. That's my mom. I've gotta go. Bye." Then I said sadly "Bye." I felt sad but I also felt kind of brave. I almost told Jason that I like him. This might be a piece of cake on the Hogwarts Express next week.

When I went to buy my wand at Olivanders Draco was there getting his wand too. I asked Draco "So how'd it go with your girl?" He replied "The usual except this time I got digits." I go "Nice." He goes "Yeah. I was getting my books and I saw you with Jason. Did you tell him that you liked him?" I replied "I almost did." Draco goes "What happened? You chickened out?" I go "No. I was about to tell him but he had to go. His mom called him." Draco replied "Oh. Sorry sis." You could tell that he really meant it. I replied "It's ok. I'll just tell him on the Hogwarts Express." He goes "That's probably the best thing you can do."

The first wand they gave Draco was perfect for him. Now I was a different story. I went through exactly 20 wands. I'm not lying. I tore apart the whole shop. I was amazed that after a while Olivander didn't kick me out. If I was him I would have thrown the kid out of the shop by the 11TH wand. Olivander told me that some witches and wizards have to go through 100 wands before they get the right one. I was about to give up at the 20TH wand. I told Olivander "If this wand doesn't work I'll leave your shop and go to Hogwarts without a wand. When they ask me why I don't have a wand I'll tell them that there wasn't a wand for me and that I have to learn hand magic." Olivander replied "Nonsense child. There's always a wand for a witch or wizard. It just takes time for some people." I go "Ok." I grabbed the wand from Olivander and there was like a whoosh of air and a light on me. Like what happened to Harry Potter when he got his first wand. Olivander said "See. There's always a wand. Even though you almost tore my shop apart and went through 20 wands you got one. That's what matters. I don't care if my shop looks like a mess. You found a wand that suits you the best."

After I bought my wand I went to get my pet with Draco. At first it was pretty hard to choose which owl I wanted. Draco got an eagle owl. I looked and looked until I saw the most beautiful owl ever. It was a red owl. It wasn't really red but it had brown feathers that made it look red. I decided that this was the owl for me. Draco liked my owl too but he said that it's better for me because of the colors.

As I was paying for my owl I saw Jason again. My brother saw Jason too. He told me "I'll finish paying for the owl. You can go talk to Jason." Without hesitation I went to where Jason was and said "Hey Jason!" Then he replied "Hey Allyson! Are you like stalking me? This is like the second time we meet." I replied "No silly. Why would I wanna stalk you? You're not really stalker worthy. There are better people to stalk than you." He replies "Oh yeah? Like who?" I go "I was trying to make a point." He laughs and says "Hey Allyson can you help me pick out an owl?" I said "Sure. Why not?" We looked around for 2 minutes until Jason and I saw a male owl that had some peacock feathers. Jason said "I love this one. Don't you?" I replied "Yeah and it's not the only male I love." Then Jason replies "I thought that you didn't like your dad or your brother?" I go "Well yeah but…" then I looked into his eyes and I realized I don't just like Jason. I love him. Then Jason said "But what? You love me?" I said "Maybe." He replies "Oh. Well I need to tell you something. Allyson I-""ALLYSON LETS GO! MOM AND DAD ARE OUTSIDE!" my annoying brother called out. "Apparently I got to go. Just tell me on the Hogwarts Express tomorrow. I have to tell you something tomorrow too. Bye." "Bye." Jason replied.

By the tone of his voice I could tell that he was sad. This feels like deshavu. Wait a minute. Of course this has happened before. When I was at the book shop with Jason. The only difference this time is that I'm the one who got called and ran off. If I'm right then Jason was gonna tell me that he likes me! I'm not gonna get my hopes up too high because I don't that for sure.

I went to my brother and told him "Dude! I was in the middle of something!" He replied "I know. I saw that you two weren't getting anywhere until you said that the owl wasn't the only male thing you loved. Right when Jason said something I saw mom and dad outside. I didn't want dad seeing you with Jason so I called you over." I go "Oh. Thanks if dad would have seen me I don't know what kinda story I'd talk him into." He replies "Yeah. Here take your owl. What are you gonna call it anyways?" I replied "Ruby." Draco goes "Cool. I'm gonna call mine Caramel cause his eyes look like caramel." I go "Cool." He goes "Yeah."

I went outside with Draco and saw my parents. Then my mom said "Allyson, sweetie I have I surprise for you. I was like "What, what, what, WHAT!" Then out of nowhere Bellatrix Lestrange came out and said "I'M HERE! SURPRISE!" I was thrilled to see Aunt Bellatrix Draco not so much. I was like "AUNT BELLA! OH MY GOSH! I'M SO GLAD TO SEE YOU!" I ran up and hugged her. Then my dad said "Come on. We'll do the family reunion thing at home. Let's go we have a long way back home." Then Aunt Bella said "I'll get us there in a jiffy. Remember were wizards. We have magic might as well use it before you lose it." and then she flashed us back to Malfoy manor.

Even though Aunt Bellatrix is a death eater (and you know that I'm TOTALLY against death eaters) she's AWESOME! Even though she's 47 years old she acts like she's 16. She's crazy and fun and the only person in my family that I've told about Jason. When I told her that she was like "Honey I'm so happy that you love someone as great as him. I'm also happy that you have good taste." I laughed when she said that. She's really cool. I LOVE my Aunt Bella.

Before me and Draco could leave the room my dad started yelling at Aunt Bella. My dad ALWAYS yells at Aunt Bella when she flashes us somewhere. He doesn't even care if it's in public. When my dad finished yelling at Bella she announced to all of us "I'm gonna spend the night here with all of you. I'm going to take you to platform 9 ¾ with your parents. I-" "Without flashing us there." my dad quickly added. "As I was saying." Aunt Bella said to my dad with a dirty look. "I wanna see my favorite niece and nephew start school where I graduated from." That comes to show you that death eaters have a heart…or at least some of them. Then Aunt Bella said "I want to talk to both of you but individually. Allyson goes first" Draco whispers in my ear "GOOD LUCK!" I chuckled a little bit cause sadly he WAS kinda right.

I followed Aunt Bella to the room where she was gonna stay in and she plopped herself on the bed and I sat next to her. She grabbed my hand and held it. She said "Allyson sweetie, I know that you really like this Jason boy. I've seen him and I agree with you. He's not that bad looking. He's good for you. It's just…your growing up so fast. I can remember the day you were born like it was yesterday. I held you in my arms tightly and I didn't want you to grow up but I knew you had to and here we are. You're going to Hogwarts and you love a boy." I started crying when she said that and she started crying to. "Look Allyson I never liked the way your father has treated you. I love you and I wish you good luck at Hogwarts." I thanked her and went to my room.

Then Aunt Bella talked to Draco and I saw him cry too. Aunt Bella is a death eater but she has a heart. At around 9:00 everyone went to bed. Tomorrow is the big day. Tomorrow will be the day that I go to Hogwarts. Tomorrow will be the day that I tell Jason that I love him.
