Fews weeks after his visit to Diagon Alley Beau stayed at home; his house is nicer than most family's he knew due to his father's position at the Ministry. But it could get boring and he couldn fly around on a broomstick and play Quidditch with his sisters like he used to when he lived in North America four years ago.

He spent most of his time annoying his sisters either posing in their mirrors while they did their own thing or pretending to box them claiming he could take them. He didn't have that many friends mostly due to being homeschooled by his mother and the neighborhood no-maj kids he found really dull.

For the rest of the month he mostly spent his time reading up on his books for Hogwarts. Carmilla helped a few times as did Hannah whenever he had questions. Behind his sarcasm and stubbornness Beau was quite bright which was why he was certain he would be in Ravenclaw.

He watched television and played with his owl ASTRO who entered him alot too and just like his owner ASTRO would annoy his sisters and their cats, Cosmos and Nebula. The most exciting part was his eleventh birthday on August tenth. His whole family celebrated even some he hadn't seen in quite some time.

His favorite part of the day was when he got his presents. He got socks and toys but his favorite gift was a signed snitch from his favorite team the Montrose Magpies. He carried it everywhere and even held it when he slept.

The morning of September first finally happened. Beau woke up early then he normally would, getting dressed and let ASTRO fly outside and stretch his wings before the sun came up.

Once at Kings Cross Station the family got out of the car owned by his father and gathered their carts. Beau contained his excitement as they walked through the station to platform nine and ten stopping in the middle.

He paused for a few moments until he felt a hand on his shoulder. "Together" Henry told him. Together they began to run towards the barrier phasing through the wall when they reached it.

The red of the Hogwarts Express shined when Beau looked at it. He saw it plenty of times when his sisters went to Hogwarts but today it felt like he was seeing it for the first time.

They walked to the back passing different students, some of them saying hello to Carmilla and Hannah although Carmilla didn't look too happy rolling her eyes when they passed a family of redheads whose twin boys mentioned blowing up a toilet seat.

They eventually packed their luggage then turned to the parents saying goodbye. "Behave Beau I really don't want a letter saying you were trying to box every student claiming you could take them" Emma told him.

He hugged his mom then went to his father. "You'll do excellent," Henry told him as they hugged. "I'll see you three at Christmas."

"I know I will," Beau added. "Plus it's Hogwarts, what the worst that could happen".

Eventually the Hogwarts Express began to move and Beau and his sisters waved goodbye from the compartment widow. When their parents were no longer in view they sat back and had a moment of silence.

"Finally peace," Hannah said with a laugh. "And someone looks excited" she added turning to Beau and began to tickle him.

Beau pushed her hands away "How long is this train ride?" He asked as Hannah kept trying to tickle him.

"About eight to nine hours," Carmilla told him.

"What! I have to spend eight hours with you two."

"Or nine" Hannah added.

Beau sighed dramatically causing both his sisters to laugh.

A few hours into the journey Beau went to the bathroom running through the hallway. Once he was done he decided to stretch his legs running through the hallway again turning back when he spotted a figure with jet black hair.
