In the Rain

Hogwarts Express

Madison's point of view 

"I'm not even a student!?" I whisper-shouted. 

"No one will notice. Some of the students aren't even coming here this year because their parents don't want them too," he said.  

"Why? Is it dangerous?" I was very concerned because he was either lying to get me in or this was actually a very dangerous place. 

"No! It's one of the safest places in the wizarding world," he said reassuringly.

"Okay! But I'm trusting you! You are a random guy I ran into and asked about my life and you want to take me into this "other world"?!" I told him because none of this really made much sense. 

"Fine, you don't have to go.... I just thought that it would be nice the help a beautiful young lady," Harry said kindly and you could tell he wasn't just trying to dodge the bullet that I kept throwing at him. I thought about how I had nothing else to do. I had no money. My Nonna had told me tales about this. I thought it was real and now it's my chance to see, and I'm turning it down? 

"Okay! Lead me to the train!" I said load and clear. 

"Well it's right here. Now put your luggage there, but take a book or a newspaper to read so you don't get bored," he said. So I grabbed  "Brick Lane" out of my bag and followed Harry on to the train. 

"This was legitimate. This was legitimate," I kept thinking to myself. Harry had lead my into almost a small room with seats on both sides of the walls. Harry sat on the right side so I sat next to him. 

"So we have to think of a plan to get you in. Let's see, so Dumbledoor has sadly passed away, so most of the teachers don't remember most of the students. Oh my gosh! We got to get you a robe!"

"Get who a robe?" a girl asked Harry in the doorway. 

"Oh Herimone! And Ron! I almost forgot!" Harry kind of shouted. 

I was guessing Herimone was the girl and Ron was the guy. Ron had ginger red hair and Herimone had beautiful brown hair. Me, I had blonde highlights in my hair because I was kinda going through a phase in middle school. 

"Oh guys this is Madison. She's my cousin's sister's mom's son's friend. It sounds like a lot, but it's not. And we aren't related," 

"Okay that was a lengthy explanation, but hi, Madison," Ron said. 

"Yes, nice to meet you!" Herimone said. "Now, so many people aren't back at Hogwarts. I mean look at the empty train! I can't believe it! It should be safer this year!" she said. 

"Why?" I say into Harry's ear. 

"Voldemort is gone..." he said. He gave me little kisses in my ear. Enough to where it was notable but not to the other two. But he quickly pulled away to see a girl in the hallway with a shade darker ginger hair from Ron's. She gave Harry a weird look and walked away with a boy with brown hair. He looked super slightly overweight, but not heavyset at all. Harry had a odd look apon his face. 

"Is everything okay, Harry?" Herimone said looking up from her book. She was reading the same book as I had brought. 

"Yes! Never better!"

Harry's point of view 

It was Ginny. I liked her a lot, but it was just weird with Ron being her brother and her being a year younger than me. She walked away with Neville. They would make a cute couple though. The timing was just odd. I was giving Madison kisses on the ear and she just walked by with Neville. I don't know. I had to tell Madison about all the craziness that had started ever since I started school. I got out a black notepad and wrote down the sum of it. We needed to make a whole back story that's we could tell people if they asked. 

I wrote: "We need to create a back story so if they ask we both know." 

She wrote:"Okay, I'm down the that, what do you want to say?"

I wrote: " How about you're from America and Dumbledoor asked this you say here for the last year because before you were being homeschooled."

She wrote: " Okay! I just don't know a thing about magic..."

I wrote: " Yeah I forgot about that..."

She wrote: "You could teach me?"

I wrote: "Yeah that's cool, but what about a wand?"

She wrote: "Could I use someone's? Or do I have to get one?"

I wrote: "I'm sure they have 1 wand at Hogwarts."

She wrote: "Okay where do I go when we get there?"

I wrote: "Just follow me! You trust me right?"

Before she could write anything Herimone and Ron told me that they were going to go change into their robes. Finally we were alone, then the lady came around saying, "Anything off the trolley?"

"Let's get some chocolate frogs!" I tell her. 

"Sure!" she said. 

I payed the lady and got the frogs. When I look back at the notepad she had written, "Yes!" with a heart as the fit under the exclamation mark. 

"Here," I said, feeding her the frog. 

"Thanks," she said. "You've got something on your check, lemme get it..."

She leaned in for a kiss. Her lips connected with mine perfectly. She had sweet soft lips, like baby's skin. I didn't want to stop. She was so good and smart and sweet and pretty. After a while she leaned out. I said, "Let's go get you a robe!"

"Okay! But where?" she said. 

"Everyone's going to change. We can see if there are any in the lost and found or if someone left one there. If not we can ask some of the professors . And everything else should be up in your room. Speaking of that I need to send McGonagall a message about you. I tell her the truth and ask if we can use the cover. I'll ask Herimone to help you and I'll stay here writing the letter." 

"Okay. I'm cool with that! Oh, here she is."

"Hey Herimone! Can you please take Madison around the train to find a robe. McGonagall will be sent a owl saying how she's staying at Hogwarts this year and how she needs a robe and materials." I told Herimone. 

"Okay, Harry. She you in a couple. Hi, Madison!" Herimone said. 

"Okay, bye Harry! Hello Herimone!" Madison said.
