Chapter 36

Last Time:

Alex kisses his neck gently before pulling away.

"I love you" Alex kisses Harry once more.

"I love you too" Harry kisses Alex back. They both pull away smiling, "let's go to bed" the two of them walks up to their tower where the girl's dorm and the guy's dorm of their year are across from each other, "are you staying here like last year or are you going on the train?"

"I'm going to King's Cross. I'm going to see my cousins in Mystic Falls. Their mom and dad's funeral are tomorrow and dad is going too" Alex explains.

"Who are your cousins?"

"Elena and Jeremy Gilbert"

Now:

As Alex and Dumbledore arrive to Mystic Falls, Alex is dragging her suitcase behind her as they walk down the road. Dumbledore ended up making them disappear from the back to the airport in Virginia to Mystic Falls, which is South Virginia.

They arrive to the town and Alex's mouth drops open.

"Wow, this town is beautiful" Alex says to Dumbledore.

"I know" Dumbledore smiles.

"When was the last time you saw Aunt Jenna?" Dumbledore looks at Alex and smiles.

"Well since Miranda and Jenna are sisters, and they are your mother's sisters, the last time I saw them, was at your mother's funeral" Alex nods.

"When was the last time you spoke to them?"

"That's the thing. We all stayed in contact with each other" Dumbledore grabs Alex's hand and they turn a corner.

"Why have I never heard of them?"

"I was trying to dodge things. I don't want you to get into danger"

"Why are you taking them to me now?"

"Some things are going to happen at school Ally. I don't want you to be involved. I will stay in contact with you this year. You will go to mortal school with Jeremy and Elena"

"How old are they?"

"Elena is 17 turning 18 in March next year, and Jeremy is 16 turning 17 in 3 weeks" Alex nods, since she is 15 turning 16 on December 31st, she will be the youngest in the house, "here we are" Alex looks up to see the house has 4 cars in front of the house. The house looks very modern but old at the same time.

Dumbledore smiles at Alex and leads her to the front door. Dumbledore knocks on the door, and remembers that McGonagall casted a spell to make the muggles see a young normal age Dumbledore, not the disguise that the wizards see.

The door opens and they see a young girl with straight brown hair and brown eyes looking at them.

"Hi?" the girl greets.

"Hello. My name is Albus Dumbledore and this..." Dumbledore steps to the left to let the girl see Alex, "is my daughter Alex Dumbledore" the girl forces a smile.

"My name is Elena Gilbert. So who are you looking for?" Elena asks.

"Jenna please" Elena nods.

"Come in" Dumbledore and Alex steps in as Elena disappear into a room and walks out with Jenna.

"Hey Albus" Jenna smiles and gives Dumbledore a hug, "hey Alex. I haven't seen you since your mother showed me you as a baby with Miranda" Jenna gives Alex a hug.

"I'm sorry about Aunt Miranda, Aunt Jenna" Alex whispers to her.

"It's ok sweetie. Do you mind sharing Elena's room until we get the spare room cleared up?" Alex shrugs her shoulders.

"After going to Hogwarts you get used to it" Alex teases. Jenna chuckles and nods.

"Would you like me to use magic to get it done?" Dumbledore whispers to Jenna so Elena doesn't hear.

"Yes please. And Alex, you could just use your Wiztech wand to decorate it" Alex nods, "but you will share with Elena for a week"

"Ok" Alex smiles. Jenna smiles along with Dumbledore.

"May I use your washroom?" Dumbledore asks and winks at Jenna.

"Sure, up the stairs and 3rd door on the right. The spare room in the 4th on the right" Dumbledore nods and walks up the stairs. Alex looks at Elena to see tears in her eyes.

"Elena?" Alex whispers as Jenna goes back in the room that she just was. Elena looks up at Alex, "it's ok to cry. Crying helps once in a while" Alex tells her gently. Elena nods she takes a step to Alex. Elena already knew that her cousin is staying with them, since Jenna told her 5 hours before. It is 2pm in the afternoon of June 17th.

"May I have a hug?" Elena whimpers. Alex weakly smiles and nods.

"Of course" Elena and Alex hugs and Alex feels Elena's tears on her shoulder. As Elena cries, Alex rubs her back and doesn't stop. Even as Dumbledore comes down and takes her suitcase up to Elena's room, Alex and Elena stays in their spot.

10 minutes later, three people, a girl with blonde hair and brown eyes, another girl with brown hair and brown eyes, but her hair is wavy, and a guy with sandy blonde hair and blue eyes, are standing in front of the two cousins. Just then a guy with brown hair and brown eyes come thumping down the stairs.

"Who are you?" the guy asks Alex.

"Alex Dumbledore. Who are you?" Alex asks.

"Jeremy Gilbert. Elena's little brother" Jeremy answers. Alex nods as Elena pulls away and wipes her eyes.

"Thank you" Elena mouths and smiles weakly.

"It's not a problem Elena. I will always be here if you need me" Elena nods as Alex smiles at her. Elena turns to Jeremy.

"Jeremy, Alex here is our cousin. Her mom was mom's and Aunt Jenna's sister. Her mom died just a few months before Alex turned 1. Her dad is here too, talking to Aunt Jenna in the kitchen" Elena tells Jeremy. Jeremy nods.

"Nice to meet you Alex. Sorry for being rude a moment ago" Jeremy smiles weakly. Alex smiles weakly back.

"It's ok Jeremy. We all get a rocky start, but things work out for the best" Alex answers.

"Hello Alex! Welcome to Mystic Falls. Why do you have that funny accent?" Blondie asks. Alex already can tell she will be like Malfoy back at Hogwarts.

"I'm from London, England. And thanks" Alex looks at the ground, "who are you?" Alex looks back up and sees the brunette girl looking at her funny.

"Caroline Forbes. This girl here in Bonnie Bennett and the guy is Matt Donovan" Caroline answers. Alex nods and looks at her cousins.

"I should go see dad before he leaves to go back home" Alex slips by the group and goes into the kitchen where Jenna and Dumbledore are talking. As soon as Alex walked in, they stopped.

"I see you met Caroline, Bonnie and Matt" Jenna smiles.

"Ya, but Caroline is like Malfoy back at Hogwarts" Alex groans and hugs Dumbledore. Jenna and Dumbledore chuckles.

"Ya, your dad were telling me all about your adventures with your boyfriend and best friends" Alex rolls her eyes.

"They were not my fault! Well, maybe about the pink toad! Now the trap door was not my full fault. The chamber of secrets... maybe, but the stupid snake was petrifying all muggle borns. Third year was Sirus Black, fourth year was the Triwizard Tournament and fifth year was the pink toad and the idiot trying to get the prophecy" Dumbledore rolls his eyes and shakes his head.

"Translation, not all of the adventure was my fault. My two best friends, boyfriend and I all work together to get our adventures"

"Exactly" Alex smiles. Jenna smiles and shakes her head.

"You are too entertaining for your own good Alex"

~A&H~

Over the rest of summer, Alex, Elena, Jeremy and Jenna all stayed home or went on little road trips to get to know each other.

Before Dumbledore left, Jenna made sure that neither Alex nor Dumbledore would tell Elena and Jeremy that they are wizards.

It is now the day before school starts and Jenna already signed Alex up to go to school with Elena and Jeremy.

Alex, Jeremy, Elena and Jenna are currently sitting in the living room.

"Ok Elena. Since you are 17 and Alex is 15, I was able to get into all your classes. You both have History, English, Drama and Math. Jeremy, you have English, Math, History and Art" Alex bites her lip, "Alex, you will still be doing your other school work from your old school" Alex nods, "since your dad is headmaster, he gave you your school work"

"Ok" Alex nods. She knows that just the cover up story. Her teachers will be coming to get her for her classes. Like for McGonagall, she will come and take her to her class but will use a time turner. But other than her classes, she will be in Mystic Falls. But they even changed the basement to be her classroom when she does magic homework.

The next morning, Alex rubs her eyes as Elena gets changed.

"Morning Alex" Elena smiles as she brushes her hair.

"Morning" Alex sits up and yawns as she stretches, "what time is it?"

"8. School starts at 9" Alex nods and climbs out of Elena's bed that they are sharing for the week. Alex walks to her suitcase and pulls out jeans, a red t-shirt and a red and black sweater, leaving them on the bed. She slips into the bathroom that is joined up with Jeremy's room and locks both doors.

Once out of the shower, Alex wraps a towel around her and waves her wand, making her hair look damp with it's really dry. Alex always keeps her wand with her, no matter what. She unlocks the doors and just then Jeremy opens it.

"Morning" Jeremy smiles and looks at Alex's brown eyes.

"Morning and you are different then other guys. They normally check the girl out when they are only in a towel" Alex points out. Over the summer, Alex was able to get rid of her English accent and get an American one.

"One, you are my cousin. Two, you are cute in a family way. And three, you are now my little sister that I'm going to protect" Alex smiles and nods.

"That's Jer. You and Elena are my older brother and sister too" Jeremy pulls Alex into a hug and lets her go to her's and Elena's room to get changed. Jeremy quickly jumps into the shower and couldn't get rid to the smile. Even though he and Elena are going through a VERY hard time, since both their mom and dad died, it brought them a miracle in their lives... Alex Dumbledore.

And that's the chapter. What do you think? Please review.
