Eldest Potter

Chapter 10

Their dinner was quick and they paid. They then got out of the resteraunt quite late and headed home. She said goodnight to everyone before going upstairs to the attic, changing into her pj's and going straight to bed. It had been a rough first year.

The next morning, Rose woke up early the next morning. She got herself into some leggings, a crop top and some trainers before walking out of the house and going out for a run. During Hogwarts you had to be pretty healthy to get around to each class quick enough so she took up running to keep her in shape.
During the run she had some letters dropped onto her. She sat down on a close bench and opened them.

Dear Rose,
Like last year I will be collecting you 2 days before Hogwarts to go shopping. Same place we met before.
Since you haven't touched your bracelet for help, I'm guessing you are fine so I don't have to ask.
However, if you are the slightest bit injured I need to know so I may speak with the Dursleys.
Signed,
Severus Snape.

Dear Rose,
We are writing to you to invite you to the burrow for the last week of the holidays. Mother said it was fine and the twins are really excited for if you are acctuly coming.
Percy Weasley.

Realising she wanted to go to the Dursleys, she cleared the parchment's and wrote back to the two.

Dear Sev,
I've been invited to the Weasley's for the last week before the Holidays. Is it alright if you pick me up there instead of the Dursleys?
Signed,
Rose.

Dear Percy and the Weasleys.
I will accept you're offer to stay at your home for the week.
I will see you all soon.
Signed.
Rose.

Rose sighed, sending them off before standing up. Of course realising the time, she ran back home and walked inside the house. She realised that Petunia was asking Harry something.
"I'm back. Breakfast ready?" The twelve year old girl asked.
"Where were you?" Petunia asked.
"I went for a run." She smiled, walking in and sitting down.
Their food was plated out. She then decided to pick up the convocation of her staying at her friends for the last week.
"Aunt Petunia, I have been invited to my friend's home for the last week before school.  I was wondering if it'd be alright for me to go and stay there." She asked.
"Of course you may." Petunia nodded, smiling.
"You won't be taking us for our last day of school?" Harry asked.
"You promised to be at our leavers assembly." Dudley added.
"I'll be there. I promise you. I get back here an hour before your leaver's. I assure you I will be there in time. But even if I can't make it, I will pick you up from your last day at school." She told them.
"Okay." Harry and Dudley nodded.
"Remember boys, Rose is about to become a teenage girl, she must have more time for her self. For all we know, Rose may find herself a lover in the next year or so." Petunia told them.
"Rose? Get a boyfriend?" Dudley asked.
"Ewww!" Both of them complained.
"Jeeze boy's cant I get myself someone? Merlin I can't be stuck with you two all my life." She laughed.
"Merlin? What does that mean?" Harry asked.
"It means god. Ignore it." She smiled.

They all ate breakfast in the comfort of silence. She enjoyed it like that. She didn't have to deal with Dudley complaining about food and as for Harry, well she had nothing to say about that.

That night Severus sent her a letter saying he would just grab everything she needed and give it to her when he picked her up two day's before Hogwarts.
Either way by the end of it, the last week, she got ready to head to the Burrow.
