Just as Y/n was about to leave the shop stricken with surprise the door to the shop swung open, letting in a gust of wind. A boy with raven-black hair entered, a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"Hello Mr Olivanders" the boy said as he pushed the door open

"Ahhh Mr Harry Potter it only seems like yesterday your mother and father came to get their first wands" Mr Olivanders said

Y/n looked in shock at his forehead to see an exact matching scar shaped as a lightning bolt.

Swaps to 1st person

"Wow uhhhh hello" I said

I immediately felt embarrassed for blurting out 'Wow uhh hello' instead of introducing myself. He had a matching lightning bolt scar that he had noticed immediately and we burst out laughing.



'Sorry wrong start lemme try again,' I said, brushing the hair out of my eyes. 'Hello my name is Y/n Lupin-Black, how about you?'


He nodded and grinned. 'Hello Y/n Lupin-Black, my name is Harry James Potter.'


He stood there studying my face for a few seconds before asking, 'Are you starting in Hogwarts, too?'


'Hogwarts, what's that,' I replied stupidly. Harry's face lit up with amusement, but then a puzzled frown began to form.


'Oh where are you going to school?' he asked, with a slightly confused expression.


I glanced up from beneath my eyelashes, looking at Madame Maxeine for confirmation. My heart raced as she nodded and I turned back to Harry with more confidence.


'I'm going to the School Boubatton; it's a magical school in France. Do you know it?' I asked hesitantly.


'Oh, yeah I've heard of it,' he said. It's for younger students, isn't it?'


I nodded. 'Yup, I'm going to be ten when school starts. I'm going to be at the same stage magically skilled I mean".



Harry smiled. 'That's weird, so I'm eleven but your ten but we both start at the same time and you'll be the youngest there.

"Wow that's" weird he exclaimed 


I smiled at his enthusiasm and nodded.

 Harry then asked me if I'd heard about Hogwarts at all and proceeded to explain some of the details. 


I had known some of the basics before, but his enthusiasm and explanations made me realize just how grand and incredible the school was.


"So there's a half giant for the groundskeeper called hagrid and we start learning about levitation in the first week of school the great hall has an enchantment to make the ceiling look 

like the sky at the time your looking at it and there are centaurs in the forest" he exclaimed 
I listened attentively, mesmerized by his stories and the oddness of it all. 


When he was done, I was more curious about Hogwarts than ever.

'How can we keep in contact,' I asked eagerly.



He opened a small pouch from his pocket; from it he pulled out an envelope. 'It's owl post,' He said. My owl is hedwig a snowy owl he said.


"Oh mines a (your owl) y/o" I replied


"Ohh wow I love them their so majestic" Harry finished


It had seemed that we ignored the fact that we have matching scars but will we be able to ignore it for long?
