A/N : Hey guys! I know it's the battle of the Seven Potters but seeing as I created Derek, that makes it 8. And Elena is the main character in this book, making it 9.

I take in a deep breath as I approach Privet Drive.

I haven't seen any of my friends or Ron since summer holiday began. I went on vacation to Paris with Draco for the holiday.

We ate so many different foods, we met so many people.

We turned 17 this summer, which I was particularly excited about. I can finally do magic outside of school.

I step up to the Dursley's house and see Harry's uncle and cousin loading up their car.

His cousin, Dudley, jumps at the sight of me. He is clearly startled, seeing that it seems as if I just appeared out of nowhere.

"Freaks." Harry's uncle mutters.

"Evil muggles." I mumble back, glaring at the man.

"Who are you then?" Dudley asks, causing me to roll my eyes.

"You know who I am, Dudley. We've met more than twice." I scoff.

"Oh yeah. Little Lenie, all grown up. Say, I don't reckon you'll-." Dudley begins

"In your dreams, Dursley." I seethe.

He sucks in his breath as they pack the rest of their stuff in the car and get in.

I smirk as they pull off. Harry is standing next to me and he chuckles.

I turn to him and a small smile grows on his face as our eyes meet.

Without saying a word, I throw my arms around him. Harry's arms hug me tightly as he buries his face into my hair.

"I've missed you, Lenie. How was your summer?" Harry mumbles.

"It was fine, Harry. It's time to worry about you now." I say, grabbing his hand as we walk into the house.

I walk through the threshold as Harry follows behind.

"So this is home for you huh?" I ask as I look back at him.

He shakes his head at me.

"Hogwarts is." Harry states.

He leads me over to this little cupboard below the stairs.

"But this is where it all began." he reveals, pointing to the cupboard.

I give him a small smile. This seems like such a dick thing to do, but I always forget Harry has been through a lot.

I'm about to say something again when I hear a knock at the front door.

Everyone else must've arrived.

"All right, Harry? Yeh look fit." Hagrid declares as Harry opens the door.

Next comes Moody, who clearly is already ready to go.

"Yeah, he's ruddy gorgeous. What do you say we get undercover before someone murders him?" Moody exclaims as he enters the house.

Next comes Kingsley, who apparently isn't supposed to be there.

"I thought you were looking after the Prime Minister, Kingsley!" Harry exclaims, turning his attention to Kingsley.

"You're more important." Kingsley replies.

As soon as everyone else begins to flood into the house, Ron is here. He's looking around the living room for me.

I walk past everyone else and I head straight towards Ron. His gaze meets mine as I pause and his eyes soften.

"Hi, Lenie." he says softly.
