// You are beautiful. //

Prologue

Nobody saw the stranger. The stranger with a face hidden by a midnight black cloak, a face that had been granted with sparklingly blue eyes.
The stranger that was carrying a wicker basket with a ruby red blanket inside.
The blanket was alongside a child.
Not just any child, but a beautiful child.
A child with a wisp of curly blonde hair that almost glittered on her soft white skin.
This child was special.
The stranger could feel it. The presence the child brought and still does was magical.
Sleeping peacefully, the child looked like an angel.
Treading softly, the stranger reached the top of a lane into an estate.
When the stranger reached the corner, they glanced at the sign, among a raspberry bush which read,

"Privet Drive"

The stranger relaxed. This was the place.
The stranger looked down at the sleeping child and smiled. She would grow up to be beautiful.
The stranger carried the basket and made their way down Privet Drive, stopping at number five.
The stranger walked up the flower strewn driveway and placed the child on the red brick step.
Reaching into their pocket, the stranger pulled out a thickly wadded envelope and placed in the basket with the text facing up reading,

"Mr and Mrs Longbottom, Number 5 Privet Drive."

The stranger straightened up and swallowed. They hoped they'd understand.

After all, they did know Cecelia.

After the stranger left with a loud crack,
the child stirred and opened two sleepy eyes.
One electric blue, the other a deep indigo.
The child waited on the doorstep, unaware of how she would be awoke the next morning with a small child poking her and a new family.

The child's name, you ask?
Her name was,

Ariana.
