Chapter 4: The Party

 Ok so I'm getting there and I'm almost to point where Barry begins his first year but Im sorry its been taking so long to get to the point.

Chapter 4: The Party

When Barry and the Walter's arrived home there was a small party, outside in the Walter's garden, waiting for Barry. It consisted of Tonks, who Barry was pleased to see, Romulus-who was one of the best friends that Barry's parents had. Romulus had a pale face with premature lines, and light brown hair.

Aside from Tonks and Romulus there was Romulus' sister Amy, who was Tonks best friend. She and Tonks resembled each other a lot. They both were the same age, had the same profession and shared Tonks Anamorphousis ability. At the moment Amy had a roundish shape face and dark short hair that spiked up at the end.

Then there was Bill and Jeremy. Bill was tall, like his dad and had long red hair that he wore in a pony tail. Jeremy on the other hand was short and stocky, and had muscled arms. There was also a few other people here at the little party, which Barry all knew, except for a couple who were off to the side. All he could see was the back sides of them.

As he stepped outside everyone chanted, “Happy Birthday Barry,” in unison. It was when the couple off to the side turned around he knew who they were. In a blink of an eye Barry was in their arms and hugging them.

“I knew you guys would be here,” Barry told his parents. His Mum was a pretty woman with thick, dark red curls that fell to her shoulders, and the muddy brown eyes that she shared with her son. Barry's father on the other hand was a tall thin man, hazel eyes, and untidy black hair that stuck up in the back.

As soon as Barry let go Mrs. Walter hugged his Mum. “Lilly it's been ages since you've been over, and you to Jack.” she said as she released Barry's Mum and hugged his Dad.

“Being an Auror is a busy and full time job,” Lily said with a laugh. “We try to take time off but it never seems to works out. But all that matter's is that Barry has a good birthday party.”

 ~*~

The party, to Barry, seemed to go on forever. After Barry had the little interaction with his parents, everyone else started coming up to him and wishing him Happy Birthday. The part that got Barry really excited was when he got to show everyone his brand new wand. It was an eleven inch wand with a hair from a werewolf.

Other than that the party went like and other party. About halfway through it the Minister of Magic showed up with his family. Barry was well acquainted with them, but was still surprised to see them at his party.

After only a few seconds of being there, the Minister of Magic and Barry's parents had gone inside. Barry had noticed this as well as Alec and Ginny. “I wonder why they went inside,” he said to them.

“Must be important,” Alex murmured.

It took one look between Barry and Alex for them to make up their mind. They both nodded in agreement and started to sneak to the house. They had made it to back door when Barry stopped and looked over his shoulder. He nearly jumped into Alec after realizing Ginny was behind him.

“You scared me,” Barry tried to whisper but it came out as if he was just having an actual conversation with her.

“Shh,” Alex shushed him. Once it got quiet you could hear the voices from inside.

“I told you he's still out there,” You could hear Barry's Dad's voice.

Before Barry, Alec and Ginny could her anything else someone tapped Barry on the should which made all three of them jump.

“Its time for the cake,” Bill said. “Let me go and get your parents.” he said as he walked inside the house.

Before he came back outside Barry Alec and Ginny were already with everyone else near the cake. A minute Barry's parents, the Minister of Magic and Bill all came outside and everyone sung “Happy Birthday” to Barry.

Then after the cake Barry got to open all of his presents. He had saved Tonks present for the last one mostly because it was the biggest. He first tore off the wrapping paper and then took off the lid to the box. He looked in the box and loved what he saw.

After he was done opening his presents everyone slowly started to leave and things calmed down. But for the moment things were exactly how Barry liked them.
