I woke up the next morning grinning like and idiot. I looked to my left and didn't see Harry. Assuming he was eating breakfast I got dressed. Mrs. Weasley had out a turquoise dress for me that stopped at my knees. I put on some black ankle boots and started for breakfast. As I was walking down the stairs I heard Percy's voice so I decided to listen in.

"So who is this Jennifer Lawrence girl? Why is she sharing a room with Harry and why are taking her with us? Isn't she a stranger you told us to stay away from strangers." he questioned. I rolled my eyes I look exactly like Harry he could have guessed. Ron defended me and said,

"Details details, we're being nice. You got a problem you run away from home simple as that!" ok now I thought Ron was being too protective. Now Fred and George step in.

"She stamped our hands!" they said together.

"She used a marker!" Harry shouted. Good brother. I guess it's time for me to step in.

"You know, it's pretty rude to talk behind other people's backs."
I said. Everyone screamed.

"Psh, we weren't talking about you!" Ron stepped in.

"You are a terrible liar, Ronald!" Hermione stated.

"Well I want to go to Hogwarts so hurry up!" I demanded. They all went upstairs to get their things. Knowing Harry would get mine I skipped outside and took in the beauty of Diagon Alley. Suddenly I was run over by a boy.

"Ouch!" I complained.

"Jennifer!" Harry shouted. "Shove off Malfoy!" The boy got up.

"Wow! you can't be Potter's sister. You are way to pretty." he said. I gasped. How did he know?

"It's ok Jen, his dad works for the ministry he would know." Harry said glaring at the boy.

"Draco Malfoy, and what is your name?" he asked me.

"Jennifer."

"Nice to meet you Jennifer." said Draco. He lifted my hand to his lips and kissed it. Harry pulled me back to the ministry cars.

"Nice meeting you Draco!" I called over my shoulder.

"You don't want to mingle with a Malfoy!" Harry told me once we were on the car.

"Why not?" I asked

"Because he makes fun of Harry for his parents death, me for not having that much money, and Hermione for being muggle-born!" Ron stepped in.

"Well I'm sure that's all talk. He seems really nice and he's kind of cute." I protested. Harry rolled his eyes.

"Well wait untill you see what he's like on the train." Hermione said. My eyes widened.

"Train? As in big machine on tracks. Oh I've always hated trains! In muggle London they always go off track!"

"Don't worry it's run by magic." Hermione said trying to calm me.

"Yeah and if the person that is running the train by magic gets distracted...I WILL DIE!" I argued. They sighed. They knew they couldn't argue with me now as I am too stubborn.

"Well we've rode that train 4 times 2 times going there and 2 times back and we haven't crashed, stopped, or run off track." Hermione said.

"And we'll see about that." I said ever so stubbornly. After about fifteen minutes of filling me in on who is who at Hogwarts we were at Kings Kross station. And my nerves started to get bad. We entered the train station and walked until we were at platforms 9 and 10. But one thing, there was no train. PHEW!

"Umm........where's the train?" I asked Harry.

"Through there." he pointed to a BRICK WALL! My brother has issues!

"Harry are you ok are there some things we need to work out? If so, I am totally there for you just talk to me. I will listen." I said in a sweet voice.

"No Jennifer you have to go through." Ron said. Now I was shouting these two are MENTAL!

"ARE YOU TWO CRAZY! NO OFFENSE BUT YOU ARE PRETTY STUPID TO THINK I AM GOING TO WALK THROUGH A BRICK WALL! YOU TWO ARE-" I was cut off by Fred and George going through the wall. Then it hit me: I'm a witch.

"Sorry I forgot I was a witch and I'm going to a school of magic which may use magic to get students there." I apologized coming to my senses.

"It's okay I couldn't believe it my first time." Harry reassured me.

"Go through with me?" I asked him.

"Of course." I grasped his hand and earned looks of confusion from the Weasleys and one look of anger from Ginny. Interesting, but why are they looking at me like that well yeah they think I'm a stranger and all but seriously it's kind of rude. We walked through the barrier and then I saw the HOGWARTS EXPRESS
Suddenly my fear of trains relaxed, this train felt so safe and I loved it I walked forward with Harry ready to get on that train. Mr. Weasley appeared beside me and asked to speak to us.

" Listen there is a certain per-"

"Sirius Black," I began.

"He's after us." Harry finished. So cool!

"Look kids don't go looking for him."

"Why would we." we said at the same time AGAIN! I could've sworn we were twins!
