Dear Diary, Aug/2nd/1991
I got my Hogwarts letter a few
days ago!! Of course I already
knew I was going to go to Hogwarts
but just getting the letter made it
feel even more real. I am going to
Hogwarts!!! I have dreamed about
the day I would go to Hogwarts for
As long as I can remember.
Nymphadora just graduated at the
start of summer. I'm kind of scared
to do this without her. She is going
to train to be an auror. I want to be
An auror someday too. We are going
Diagon Alley today to get my things!
I can't wait to-

"Y/N COME DOWN FOR BREAKFAST" shouted
Y/n's mother Andromeda.

I'll finish this later Y/n thought to herself as she threw her diary onto her bedside table and jumped up off her bed.

She ran down the stairs skipping a step at the bottom as she swung herself into the kitchen.
Y/n's kitchen was a lovely open space connected to the dining room. There was large windows all around the kitchen letting in the warm August sunlight. Her mother was busy preparing for the trip to diagonal alley. She was pacing around the kitchen looking for the list with all of the things Y/n would need for her first year at Hogwarts.

"For Merlins sake Y/n where did you leave your list?"

"Uhh I dunno" Y/n muffled through her mouthful of porridge.

"Y/n Tonks what did I tell you about talking with food in your mouth,"

'You asked me the bloody question' thought
Y/n being careful not to say that one out loud.

"This is ridiculous, Accio list" said Y/n's mother impatiently.

The lid of the bin swung open and a crumpled piece of paper flew towards andromeda as she caught it and glared at Y/n.

"Oh" said Y/n innocently as she looked up at her mother's glare.

"You need to get your act together Y/n, I shall hope you won't be this disorganised in Hogwarts as I'm sure your professors won't be very happy with you otherwise".

Y/n and her mother travelled to Diagon Alley using floo powder. Y/n travelled with floo powder often so it was nothing new.

Despite how early they arrived, Diagon Alley was swarmed with witches and wizards of all ages shopping and getting back to school supplies.

It wasn't Y/n's first time in Diagon Alley so she was quite familiar with her surroundings.

Y/n had nearly got everything on her list there was just one more thing...

"Oh Mum please can I get an owl" Y/n whined.

"No don't be silly you can just use the school ones
Y/n".

"Well then can I at-least get a cat, they are cheaper".

"Oh Y/n I don't know"...

"Pleeeeaaaaasseeeeee" Y/n begged looking at her Mum with puppy eyes.

"Ok, fine you can get a cat".

As Y/n and her mother approached where Y/n would be getting her cat, something caught
Y/n's eye. Or perhaps someone. Above the crowd Y/n spotted a very large man, his face nearly hidden behind a long, shaggy mane of hair. He was carrying a white snowy owl.

Y/n watched carefully as he approached Olivander's and waved in through the window. A young boy came out of the shop and looked at the large man in awe.

Y/n couldn't hear what the boy was saying but he seemed to be thanking the large man.

"Mum who's that man?" asked Y/n as she signalled over to olivander's shop.

"Oh my, that's Hagrid. Remember Nymphadora telling you about the Hogwarts gamekeeper, Well that's him".

"And who's that boy with him?" asked Y/n still staring over at the pair,

They had gotten closer and Y/n could make out the boys features, He had messy raven coloured hair and these piercing green eyes. He was wearing large trousers being held up with a belt and a baggy t-shirt that was only half tucked into his trousers.

"Hm I'm not sure" replied Y/n's Mum.

'Wow' thought Y/n. She looked up and her mother was staring at her with confusion. 'Oh no did I say that out loud' she thought again looking away from her mother. She didn't know and she didn't want to ask so she just kept walking with her head down.

Y/n was travelling home with lighter pockets but she had a lovely furry friend with her.

Y/n had named her 'Poppy'. She had deep navy eyes and light grey fur with dark grey markings. She was still not a fully grown cat but Y/n didn't mind.

Y/n arrived back home with her mother late that day. The sun was setting and Y/n's Father Ted and sister Nymphadora had arrived home from work at the ministry.

"Wotcher, How did the trip to Diagon Alley go?" asked Nymphadora as she hopped on one foot into the kitchen trying to take off her boots.

"Very successful" Y/n replied signalling to poppy who was sitting on the marble counter.

"Oh my Merlin shes gorgeous" said Y/n's sister as she stroked poppy's head.

"Y/N TONKS GET POPPY OFF THE COUNTER NOW" shouted andromeda as she came in through the back door aimlessly flicking her wand at the pots and pans in the sink causing them to fly back into their cupboards.

Y/n heard the door open again and in came her father Ted Tonks.

"Hello love" said andromeda glancing at her husband walking in through the door.

"Hello girls, how was the trip to Diagon All- is that a cat?" Said Y/n's shocked father.

"I didn't want to her to get an animal, at least not for her first year but she wouldn't stop nagging and I just thought..." Y/n's Mum droned on.

Y/n's dad wasn't paying attention to his wife, instead he was staring at poppy in awe.

"Well isn't she just beautiful" said Ted staring at Poppy.

"Calm down dad your wife is still in the room" Y/n said cheekily which made Nymphadora fake a cough to muffle her laughter.
