Smile - James Potter

Chapter 1

"Malia hurry up, or we are going to leave you here" Isaac yelled up to his daughter.

He was currently trying to hustle his three kids out of the house so they didn't miss the Hogwarts Express, but that didn't look like it was going to happen any time soon.

At last, Malia came hopping down the stairs, like usual, but this time she was sporting bright red hair. The two boys standing beside Isaac covered their mouths trying their best not to laugh.

Without a second of hesitation Isaac yelled "Oliver, get down here this second"

His step son's laugh could be heard throughout the house as he came running down the stairs pushing past Malia, almost nocking her down.

"What did you do to your sister's hair" he sighed.

"It's just a little hair dye. I was doing her a favor, that blonde hair was doing nothing for her." Oliver spoke with a smirk on his face. Jared and Derek, Malia's older brothers, both shot him a glare.

Not one of the three siblings liked their step brother. He was constantly pranking all of them, especially Malia. She would never give him the reaction he wanted after he pranked her; she just shrugged it off with a smile.

Before Isaac could scold Oliver, Malia spoke up "it's okay, Dad, I like it. All my friends are going to freak when they see it!"

This irritated Oliver to no end as he stomped up the stairs back to his room. Little did he know, this made Malia's smile grow bigger.

She didn't really like the hair color she just didn't want to give him the satisfaction of a reaction. She knew this was driving him crazy.

She giggled while picking up her suitcase and skipping ahead of the rest of her family to the car.

"You, my sister, are way to happy for your own good" Malia's older brother, Derek, chuckled as he threw an arm over Malia's shoulder.

"How can you not be happy when we get to see our friends today" she happily exclaimed.

"When you have to wake up to Oliver" Malia's twin, Jared, grumbled from the other side of Derek.

"Just be glad that I didn't make him join us on our two hour drive to kings cross" Isaac said as they all reached the car.

"Bless you" all three of them spoke in unison, earning a weird look from their father.

Then all at once the sibling darted to the passenger seat car yelling "shotgun" only to have Derek get there first, letting out a shout of victory.

"Maybe I should have sent you all to different schools. You are all starting to act like the same person," Isaac laughed.

"It's a shame Fiona couldn't come with us to Kings Cross" Malia exclaimed, as everyone agreed.

It was hard to believe someone so evil and spiteful as Oliver could have come out of someone so loving and kind as Fiona. All the kids adored her.

"So, you ready to start you're last year at Hogwarts, Derek" Isaac questioned his eldest.

"Honestly, no. I'm going to miss Hogwarts so much" Derek sighed, "almost as much as I'm going to miss scaring off all of Malia's boyfriends" he chuckled as he and Jared high fived each other.

"You guys are the worst" Malia huffed.
