Chapter One

The Move

~Y/N POV~

I was the best in my family, my parents loved me, but my siblings didn't. My mother passed away a couple of years ago so he remarried and I got step brothers they hated my success. I made potions some of the best professionals had easily. I made my own potions as well. My mom was proud of my success, she let me get most things I wanted, which isn't a lot since I provide my family with so much income since I was 10. My siblings hated me for the attention I got, they would abuse me but it just uses my powers to heal myself. I had two older brothers and a sister. My eldest brother, Gene, was the only one on my side. He would try to stop whenever he saw but he was gone a lot. One day my dad sat me down at the table and talked to me.

"We're moving, you're going to go to Hogwarts."

"Isn't that in the UK?"

"Yes, your stepmom and I are splitting up. I offered to take you and your sister." (The sister was adopted by your dad and stepmom.)

"Ok, dad, when do we leave?"

"Were getting your supplies tomorrow, their supplies are way different than Americas. You will be leaving Monday while your sister and I pack up here. Don't worry, she won't touch your things." he says. my sister always tried to either steal my things or rip them apart. One day my dad and I were coming home and I went to my room and I saw my sister rip my favorite sweater and broke my necklace with my diamond charm.

"Thank you, father." I hug him and go to my room. I write an owl to all my friends telling them what's going on. I send them to their local owl post. I look in the mirror and realize that I'm the only person with blonde hair. /THIS WILL BE IMPORTANT LATER ON/

*Next Morning*

I wake up and get ready to go to Diagon Alley.

"Y/N are you ready?"

"Yeah, coming down."

*Time skip brought to you by a lazy author.*

We make it to Diagon Alley and my dad gives me money for my wand and treats for my owl. I go into Oliver's and see 3 redhead boys (Pretend this is when Ron gets a new wand) two boys look older than me and one about my age.

"Who are you, I don't think I've seen you here before," one of the boys say.

"George don't scare her, I'm pretty sure she's the American transfer student." the second boy said.

"I'm Fred, this is George and my little brother Ron. I believe he's in your class." Fred says.

"Say doesn't her dad work for the ministry now?" George asks.

"Yeah he does, our dad works there as well I'm sorry for what your stepmom has done," Fred says.

"Thank you but I don't want to talk about it, "I say keeping tears back in my eyes. I put my head down and I soon feel arms wrapped around me.

"I'm sorry for bringing it up," Fred says.

"It's okay," I hug back.

"Why don't we help you get your supplies," George says.

"I just need to get my wand and my owl treats and food"

"Let's get going! Wanna tag along Ron?"

"No thanks, you two go ahead." the boy says. I get my wand and we head to the animal store.

"So is it true?" George asks

" If whats true?"

"Your potion making, we heard my dad talk to dumbledor about moving you into advanced potion instead of the yearly potions."

"Yeah, I started selling them when I was 10 but made them when I was 5 my..." I stop talking. My mom was the one who taught me everything I knew about potions. 

~Fred's POV~

I look over to Y/N and she spaced out. tears start coming out of her eyes.

"Let's take her to go sit somewhere," I say and pick her up bridal style. We go to a bench and we sit Y/N on there.

"It should've been me." I hear her whisper.

"What is she talking about?"

"I don't quite know." was all I could say. I pull Y/N close and rub her back. I know I just met her but for some reason, I want to protect her and make her happy."

"Boys what are- What did you do!" I hear my dad yell. George goes over to dad and tells him what happened and I hear y/n

"What happened?" she asks

"We were talking and you spaced out." her smile falls.

"I-I'm sorry." her voice breaks a little.

"It's okay y/n, how about we go get the rest of your supplies and go find your dad?"

"That sounds good." we get up and head to the animal store.

*Time Skip*

~Y/N POV~

My dad calls me back to him to leave and I say goodbye to Fred.
