Y/N arrived at Kings Cross in the early morning. He held his suitcase in the right hand and his Walkman in his left hand. While turning his head his tired eyes caught a glimpse of the person he was looking for. He took his headphones off his head and hung them around his neck. His aunt Mary rushed to him and hugged him tightly. "How are you? Did u have a comfortable trip?" she asked while pressing a kiss on his forehead. Mary was a pretty woman in her late thirties. She has brown shoulder length hair and is half a head taller than Y/N. He grinned and nodded "Yes it was alright I am just very tired. I couldn't really sleep these seats in the plan aren't that comfy." "Sure I know that. Ok then let's go home so you can take a nap" she said while taking his suitcase. They walked out of Kings Cross, around a narrow, dark corner. She held her hand out and smiled at Y/N. At the moment he took her hand they apparated to Mary's home.

In the next second, they stood in a large bright living room. "Argh, I will never like this" Y/N said displeased. Mary chuckled and replied "Yea indeed it feels pretty strange but you will get used to it". "So if you are that tired feel free to go upstairs and sleep for a while." Y/N gave her a tired smile and nodded. Before he went upstairs he stopped on the stairs and turned around "Thank you for picking me up and letting me stay here with you over the holidays." "No problem dear you know that you are my favourite nephew" she said and winked her eye. Y/N started laughing "I know but this could be because I am your only nephew". "So I am not allowed to have a favourite nephew than? But now go to your room and rest a little bit."

After a few hours Y/N woke up. He went downstairs to get something to eat his stomach was already growling at him. Y/N went to the kitchen to get some toast when an owl flew through the open kitchen window and dropped a letter on his head. As quickly as she showed up, she disappeared through the window again. Y/N took the letter and started reading.

After reading the letter Y/n had a smile of relief on his lips. "It is settled. I am going to Hogwarts" he thought. He went back to his search for food when a note on the fridge caught his eye. On this stood -Went to get some groceries. It won't be long feel free to take from the fridge whatever you like-. Right next to the note was a picture pinned on a door in which you could see three happy laughing faces. One of a Man with black hair and a thick curly beard, he held a woman with blond hair on his left. She looked very happy and had freckles and dimples on her face. Between them stood a boy with short, curly, thick black hair and a big grin on his face. His deep brown eyes looked up to him.

They stood in front of a roller coaster. A tear rolled down his cheek when he looked at it. Y/N remembered that day it was his 10th Birthday and it was for sure one of the happiest days in his life so far. At that moment he could hear small pop. Mary has to be back from shopping, he tried to put on a happy face and brushed the tear away and turned around. She looked at him with a sad smile "I miss them too, but they wouldn't want you to be sad all the time" Mary said while hugging him. "I know it's just.... it is hard. New country, new school, new people I think it would be easier if they were here... anyways look what came" he said at handed her the letter. She read it and looked up to him. "Okay, we should go today to Diagon Alley. It will be fun I think you will love it there" she noted to put him on other thoughts. Y/N left to his room to change. In his room was a mirror in which he looked at himself. He still looked like the young boy on the photo. But now older. His hair still black and curly became a bit longer. A few strands fell down in front of his face. He had a sharp nose and high cheekbones.

He changed in a comfortable hoodie and shorts for Diagon Alley and observed himself for a few moments, rating his appearance. He nodded to himself and left his room to walk back down to his aunt.

Mary held her arm out and grinned at him. "Really, do we have to do this again? Can't we just walk there?" Y/N asked hopefully. She started laughing at him "come on its not that bad as you think it is, but no we can't. But I guess you can walk if you want to be there tomorrow" with that said Y/N sighed and took her hand.
