It's summer break and I'm waiting for a reply from Norman. We were talking about maybe hanging out this summer along with Emma and Ray, and Draco if he wanted too. In the letters that I received before now, Norman talked about a surprise of some sort, but he wouldn't spill. Otus finally returns with a letter from Norman. When I open it two tickets fall out. Strange...these don't look like the ones I usually get and why would we need tickets if we can just floo? I decide to go down to my father to ask what they are.

     "Father, do you know what these tickets are?" He looks up at me from his book and looks at the tickets I present in front of him.

     "They're used for muggle transportation...wait, how did you get those?"

     "Norman sent them to me, he said that they were for me and Draco and to meet him in Diagon Alley." My father sighs,

     "Alright, I'll let you go. Just be back before dinner time and be careful." I smile and hug my father.

     "Thank you! You are the best!" He chuckles and hugs me back.

Time skip

     I'm in Diagon Alley with Draco and we are waiting for the others outside of Ollivander's. Draco and I were currently discussing what the tickets were for.

     "Do you think they sent these by accident??"

     "N/n, this is Norman we're talking about, why would he send these without a reason??"

     "You're right. Ugh, I just wish they would hurry up! I'm tired of waiting." As I say that I feel two kids bump into me.

     "Ow- oh, hey Y/n!" Lannion says and then hugs me. The other kid is Thoma and he hugs me too.

      "We're going to Hogwarts this year! That means we can see you! Are you proud of us? We got letters!" Lannion starts rambling. Thoma nods excitedly along with his words. I look up and see Ray running to try to catch up to them.

     "Don't tell me you two ran off again?" I whisper to them. They quickly hide behind me and run into the store. Ray stops in front of me and Draco.

     "Have you seen where they went?" Ray asks us while catching his breath. I'm about to reply before Draco interrupts me.

     "Nope, never seen them." Ray looks at him suspiciously. I just look back and forth between them in confusion as to why Draco lied. Thoma and Lannion soon walk out of the store with their wands. They realize that Ray is out here with us and Ray stands up straighter and crosses his arms. They giggle sheepishly before hiding behind me.

     "N/n! Help us!" They yell. I pat their heads and they cling onto me. Ray glares at them and I just laugh.

     "What did they do this time Ray?" I chuckle. He keeps glaring at them while talking to me.

     "These two morons ran off because they wanted to get to the store before us." I swear I can see him pouting a little at this. I giggle.

     "Did they also steal your pouch of Galleons? I say, pointing to the almost empty pouch in Thoma's hands. Ray's jaw falls agape and he nods.

     "I didn't know they did that, but yes, they did." Thoma and Lannion gulp as they see Ray's glare intensify.

     "Come on Ray, let them off hook this time. I'll get you more galleons." I say to him while placing my hand on his arm. Ray sighs.

     "Fine. But only this time." I smile in gratitude and the two onion-haired kids behind me sigh in relief. I hear them mutter thanks under their breaths and I smile at them. They smile back at me and I feel someone staring at me. Norman and the others soon come over.
