A letter had come from Albus Dumbledore the week before saying :

Rose,

My dear friend Hagrid will come on the 31st of August to take you to get your things for school. You will stay at the Leaky Cauldron for the night. He will take you to Kings Cross the next day. Remember your promise. 

Albus Dumbledore

had waited a whole month for this day. A whole entire, long month. I was so excited for the day, that i had woken up at 6 in the morning. I got up from my bed, and got ready. I made my bed and sat on it. I had no idea when Hagrid was gonna come, so i decided to lay down..

I was awoken by a loud pounding on my door, I quickly shouted " One minute!" before i went into the bathroom, to fix my hair. I went to the door to open it and there was a huge man standing there, with a big bushy beard. I only came up to his elbows.

" Ello' there! My name is Rubeus Hagrid, games keeper at Hogwarts" Hagrid said happily.

"Hi,  I'm Rose Evans" I squeaked, i was kinda scared, even though the man had very kind eyes (you could always tell if people were nice or not by their eyes.)

That's when  I finally noticed him, there was a boy standing behind Hagrid, he was the same height as me, and looked as surprised as I was. 

" O' I almost forgo' This is Harry Potter, Rose, and  Harry this is Rose Evans." Hagrid said, stepping aside, so Harry could see Rose.

"Hi its nice to meet you." I said smiiing.

"You too, er have we met?" Harry asked

"Oh erm, no of course not,  lets go, shall we?" I had to change the subject quickly, i just met Harry, but i felt a bond between us that he must be feeling too.

" O' righ', lets go" Hagrid said.

We used the muggle underground to get to London, apparently muggles were people who couldn't do magic. Hagrid took us to a slightly dirty pub called the Leaky Cauldron and from there we went into a small dingy bathroom.

Hagrid tapped the bricks for the entrance to Diagon alley a couple times, and then we saw it.Diagon Alley.  It was absolutely beautiful. There were shops everyone, filled with all these interesting things. People hustled and bustles up and down the street chatting animatedly to their nieghbors and small children ran about looking at the small caverns. Grinning happily I thought,  I wanted to go everywhere.

After, Harry gotten the money from his - ours - account, we went to get our books from a shop called Flourish & Blotts. There were so many books, of all different sizes and shapes. I was amazed and i'm pretty sure Harry was too. 

We then went to a Potions shop, to get all our supplies. On our way there, we stopped at a shop filled with kids looking a broomstick. i wonder why, it was just a regular broomstick. I asked Hagrid, and he explained about Quidditch, and we. were captivated by the magical sport.

We were almost done with all our shopping expect expect for getting our robes and wands.  We went to Madame Malkin's Robes For All Occasions. As Harry and I waited a pale boy boy with very blond white hair came up to us. 

"Hello, I'm Draco, Draco Malfoy. "  He said.

 I'm Harry Potter" Harry said. 

I saw Draco's eyes go up to check to see if there was a scar on his forehead, he was surprised.  Draco turned to me and said curtly, "You are?"

"Rose Evans" I said

He looked at us and asked  "Are you two related then?"

"No of course not, we only came together because of Hagrid" I said pointing to Hagrid, who was standing outside the shop. (He was too big to get in) I was getting pretty good at lying, if i say so myself.

"Oh that oaf." Draco said coldly.

"Hagrids not a oaf!" Harry said, i could tell he didn't like Draco very much. Oh well there goes our chances for being friends.

"Draco!, Draco!, lets go." Said a woman's voice, probably his  mother. Draco left, as he did Harry turned to me and said " I don't like him."

"Oh, i figured." i said, giggling. He looked so serious.

When we got out of the store with our new robes, we went to Ollivanders, he was one of the best wand makers according to Hagrid. Hagrid told us he had to do something, and left us to get our wands by ourselves.

As we walked in, I told Harry he could go first. Olivander gave him atleast 5 wands to try, all that broke something when they were swished.

Suddenly Olilivander said "I wonder, i wonder.."

He went to the back of the store and got a long wand, he told Harry that it was 11 inches long, made of holly, with a a feather of a Phoenix as its core. Harry waved the wand, and I immediately knew that was the wand for him.

"Curious, curious." Olivander said

"Sorry, sir, but whats curious?" Harry asked.

"That wand has a brother Harry, and that brother was the one to give you that scar." Ollivander said pointing at his scar.

Harry was surprised, but he didn't say anything, he paid for the wand, and waited for me.

"Well, well, and who are you?" Ollivander asked.

"I'm Rose Evans. " I said

"Hm, alright." He said and i had strange feeling that he know who I was. 

He made me try at least thirty wands before, he went to the back and got a very, very pretty wand. It was very dark but the handle was gold. When i put it in my hand, it felt right, I knew this was my wand. Olivander looked scared though.

"What?" I asked.

"That wand, is very special, nine inches, holly, with a piece of unicorn tail. That wand was destined to be a wand for  a very  powerful witch. It all depends on the witch, if she will use the wand for good.. or for evil." Ollivander explained.

I was shocked, of course i would use the wand for good, and that's what i told him.

I paid for the wand, and we left, both us of quiet. When we got outside, we saw Hagrid, holding a white snowy owl, and a jet black owl. 

"Hagrid what are these for?" Harry asked.

"Their your birthday presents, o'course!" Hargid said.

Harry and I beamed as we reached over to take our owls (I took the black one) and I couldn't be more happier.
