Disclaimer I dont own Harry Potter
2nd chapter today!
Albus was starting to get pissed off. School about a week ago and Ginny was making him and James do their summer homework now just in case they decided to go on vacation. James and Al were sitting in front of the T.V. doing math homework. James kept staring at him, then his notebook and back to his own notebook. 'Don't give it to him, don't give it him' Al told himself. James looked at his notebook, confused. 'Damn' He sighed "James would like me to help your homework?" he asked
James shrugged "Well, if you insist" He snatched Al's notebook out of his hand and began copying his answers.
When Al was eight, he had a hard time staying still. He was disruptive and had a hard time paying attention in class. After Ginny realized that parents were starting to talk about him, she decided that to take him to a mind healer. During his session, the healer made him take an IQ test. It turned out that he his IQ was 140. The healer asked his school to allow him to skip a grade as well as gave him a prescription for Ritalin for his ADHD. Because he was ahead of the other first years at Hogwarts in general academic subjects, the teachers decided that he would take 2nd year's math, meaning that he got to be in the same class as his brother. James would always copy his homework and text him during tests to ask him for answers. Al wanted to point out that James wasn't learning anything by making him do the work, but he held his tongue.
"James, if you don't take your feet of my coffee table, I will chop them off and make you walk to your Uncle Charlie's" Ginny said as she entered the living room/kitchen. James removed his feet at once. He then put them back up when he heard her enter the kitchen.
"Good Morning" said Harry as he entered the room. He ruffled Al's and James's hair and made his way to the kitchen to give Ginny a kiss.
"Have a good day" she said.
"I'll be back tomorrow morning"
"Tomorrow morning? But Lily's birthday party is this afternoon!" James and Al turned around and climbed up to look over the couch.
"You told me it was next Friday. You wrote it on my calendar!"
"That was before I found out the caterers I wanted were booked for Friday"
"But we have to raids tonight and the Head has to be there. Can't you just use another caterer? Besides, her birthday isn't even till next Tuesday!"
"Harry, they're the only people that have the mint truffles that she likes. She'll be upset if she doesn't get them! "Al wanted to point out that Lily hated truffles, and that it was Ginny who would upset if she didn't get them, but he held his tongue.
"I think she be more upset if she ended up sleeping in a cardboard box!" Harry started walking towards the door.
"I've already set out invitations. The party's today and that's final! And if you don't come then, don't even bother coming home tomorrow!" She screamed. Harry slammed the front door. Al and James looked at each other. Ginny turned to stare at them. "Well?" They both dropped back into their seats and started doing their homework.
In case you were wondering, Lily's party that night was perfect. There were elegant decorations and enough truffles to make Lily throw up. The most elite witches and wizards all gathered to celebrate her turning ten. Lily looked adorable in a pale blue dress picked out by Ginny and Ginny wore a fake smile as she greeted her guests. And yes, Harry did show up. He stopped by to give Lily a small locket that he had picked out a long time ago. He gave her kiss and talked to a couple of people before returning work about five minutes later. Al would also like to point out that Ginny didn't seem too thrilled to have him there.
I know there isn't actually alot of Albus, but I thought it would be a good intro to the Potter family. Please note as you read there first few chapters that pretty much everything in foreshadowing *hint,hint*. Also yes Al takes muggle Ritalin and had muggle ADHD. There will be muggle pills in this story because you can't party or get high with potions (not that I know trust me...I just read a lot lol) Scorpius bit coming up next :)
