LilY Potter(Harry Potter's daughter)

Sending Off My Brothers

Chapter 1-

I watched my two brothers,James and Albus,getting ready to board the train.So not fair,I thought.They get to learn all sorts of magic,and I'm still stuck at home.At least I still have Hugo.He's also the same age as me,and looks just as miserable watching his sister Rose boarding the train.

So I went up to him,and smiled."Don't worry Hugo.In two years,we'll be just as good as them!We'll show them!" I enthusiastically punched my fists in the air.My red hair flew around me,as I was momentarily incapacitated from my speech.Grumbling,I peeled my hair away only to see Hugo uncertainly looking at the train.

"No," he whispered,"It's not that.I just....what if I won't become a wizard?What if I'm not accepted,and don't get a letter?" He worriedly spoke,eyebrows hunched in genuine concern.I patted his back,and tried to speak,but Mum came up to us.

"Hello,my little darlings.What are you two doing?Lily,don't you want to say good-bye to your brothers,especially Albus?" She mildly put,but her eyes were warning me to stop being so grouchy.My eyes strayed over to my brother Albus,and I saw Dad intently talking to him.A slow,yet toothy smile spread onto Al's face as he listened to Dad,and I couldn't help but wonder what was so interesting to make nervous jittery Al to be so...relaxed now.

I huffed,and walked over to them when Mum gave me a nudge."Hey Al!" I yelled.Identical faces looked towards me as Al worriedly peered at me.Jeez,he really DID look like Dad.A lot.Green eyes,and messy rumpled jet black hair."Are you ok?" I asked,sincerely.

Al just visibly swallowed,and rasped,"Yeah...I-I'm good." He looked pale when the scarlet Hogwarts train suddenly chimed,a warning that it was soon to set off.To a great big castle,and full of wonderful magic.I had to turn around,back facing the wall,for me not to start whining and crying again,I was just so jealous.I mean,I'll get my turn...in TWO years!

Stamping my feet,I backed to the platform and joined Hugo,hands shoved in his pockets.His mum sent him occasional worried looks,until I finally said,"He's upset,Miss Hermione." Hugo shot me a glare.I shrugged.What?

His mum gave me a dear look,and wiped away a dark brown twisted lock of hair from Hugo's face."Oh,I understand,Hugo." I perked up,at the mention of HER past."I grew up in a Muggle family,and was very surprised when I got the letter from the headmaster.The headmaster then,Dumbledore,was very kind.He let me be a witch even though I had no trace of magic blood.Hugo,I'm sure Headmaster McGonagall will be just as nice too." She fondly smoothed her son's cheek.

Dad,who had been listening,piped in."Oh,yeah.Hey Ron?" He shouted,to Hugo's dad,who turned his red head to grin at Dad."Remember Hermione,and her bossiness?" Dad finished,a true rueful grin plastered on.He looked so much likes a school-boy again,I wasn't surprised to see twin on Hugo's Dad's face.

"Yeah,and I reckon Rose will get her Mum's genes." His dad pointed to Rose,who was intently talking with James,and looked like she was in an argument,and trying to make a point.She huffed,and proceeded to yelling even louder at James.

"No,that's not the proper way to do magic!Mum taught me how!" She howled.I saw the grown-ups all shoot Rose's mum a furtive look,and she just tossed her bushy ginger hair,and delicately smiled.

"I just thought it better to educate Rose about the wonderful Hogwarts,and teach her properly,so that in her years,she won't be clueless like when we were." She sent Dad and Hugo's dad a snooty look.They just bent their heads and guffawed.Dad had a gleam in his eyes like he never had with us,as if he was in another world with his best school pals.

I zoned out,and tapped my feet in a rhythmic pattern,and hummed a waltz I learned from Dad.The waltz from a Muggle movie called 'Sleeping Beauty'.Something about it part of Dinney....or something?Wait,it was Disney(whatever that is).
