Twins: A Different Life Year 1

Chapter 76

James happily took his daughter in to Diagon alley and it came as no surprise that the public went mad as soon as they stepped out. Rose was beaming at them all and had her face tilted so that they could clearly see the lightning bolt scare she had on her cheek. They made their way slowly through the Alley and entered Madam Malkins where the shop was shut up for Rose,

"Why do we have to do this again?" Rose sighed as she jumped up on to the stool.

"Because that fool Black forced us, we have to go to the hearing tomorrow and we have to make a good impression." James told her.

"I hate them all, they're ruining my summer."

"I know Rosie, but I'll make it up to you. I'll buy you the new Nimbus when it comes out." James said and Rose grinned.

"You're the best daddy ever." She said and James laughed. The first layer of her robes was a deep red and then they were layered up in with different shades of gold as per the Potter colors, it was finished with the Potter crest and Rose grinned,

"These are nice, I like them."

"That's good, these are your Heiress robes."

"Have you got to get your robes?" She asked her dad as the robes were removed to be stitched in to place.

"Yes, but luckily my size and style are already noted. I only need the colors done." James told her and took the stool Rose had just stood down from. James had the opposite of Rose, he had gold under layer followed by reds on top.

"Can I have those delivered by tomorrow morning?" James asked Madam Malkin who nodded.

"Of course, Lord Potter." She answered.

"Right, let's go Rosie. We can shop now, but I have to be back to see Professor Dumbledore." He reminded her and she nodded. James let her lead him through the alley buying anything that caught her eye and a few extra things in secret because her birthday was at the end of the month.

"Daddy, would it be ok if I went over to the Burrow when we go home?" Rose asked him as they walked past the apothecary with identical looks of disgust on their faces.

"I'll have to come over to make sure it's ok with Molly first."

"That's fine, Ron says that Mrs. Weasley said it was ok I could go over whenever." Rose waved him off with a grin.

"Still, just to be sure."

"You just want to see if she's cooked anything." Rose said and James laughed.

"You've caught me."

They made their way to the Quidditch store where Rose bough the new Harpies poster.

"I think Ron is going to invite Hermione to stay at his for the summer, that way we can all stay together." Rose said in excitement.

"That will be fun for you."

"And Ginny is coming to Hogwarts this year, so we can tell her all about it."

"Ready to go then?"

"Ok."

They went back to the cauldron and floo'd back to the manor after getting through the crowds of people. Rose threw her things down to be put away by the elves and ran all the way up to her room to change in to her summer clothes. Her room was decorated in pink, red and gold – her favorite colors. She darted back down the stairs and to the nearest fireplace. James smiled at her eagerness and followed behind.

"The Burrow." She shouted and disappeared in the green flames. She stumbled out of the grate in the kitchen of the Burrow where Mrs. Weasley was busy pottering around making lunch.
