THE SUN shone through the curtains of the red and blue room, as leon's head were on his arms that were rested on the desk that were surrounded by multiple drawings.

He snored lightly, the pencil that was in his hands just hours before was now left stranded on the floor next to his golden retriever puppy, pluto, who was laying next to leon's feet, fast asleep on his back.

pluto rolled to the side, his head perking up, hearing the door open and he saw leon's sister, who entered the room quietly with a noisemaker in her hand, giggling quietly.

Leon turned his head causing his sister, lorelai, to pause and wait for a moment to see if he was waking up, after a minute she walked back to the door ready for an escape before blowing the noisemaker making him shoot up from his seat in the chair and fall back.

"Oh!" He yelled out then let out a pained groan, rolling out of the chair, "Happy Birthday, lee!" Lorelai laughed out loud and ran out of the room, The boy took his time to stand up before he chased her down the stairs, pluto stood up as he stretched then slowly followed behind of them.

"No running!" Matthias exclaimed as he saw his oldest chase his daughter around the dining table, leon paused, pretending to stop chasing her and walked over to his dad before catching his sister off guard and putting her in a gentle headlock and moving closer to the couch, getting ready to slam her on the couch.

"Leon." The boy looked up at his dad with a frown and lets go of his sister who hit him in the chest making him laugh, "Happy birthday, kid." Matthias kissed his head before he went back to making breakfast. Leon smiled brightly at his father as he sat down at the counter.

"Did it come?" He asked excitedly, a wide grin on his face as he looked at his father, The man put on a sad face and shook his head, "No, i'm sorry kid, maybe tomorrow?" Lorelai giggled quietly, clearly knowing something he doesn't know, leon's face dropped.

Matthias chuckled and nodded to lorelai, "Would you like to do the honor, lo?" Leon looked to his sister who slid a letter that had the hogwarts stamp on it. His eyes widened and the smile on his face instantly returned.

"Dude, no way! It came!" He grabbed the letter quickly and began to open it, as soon as it opened he quickly skimmed through the words. By the time he was finished, the boy was bouncing in his seat with excitement, "When can we go?!" He looked up at his father who chuckled and shook his head.

"We still have months before the school year starts." He told, raising his brows at his eldest, leon groaned dramatically and threw his head back. "Why couldn't i have a late birthday?" He sighed and looked at his dad.

"All right, go get your wand. We'll go get you something." Matthias said, ushering leon to the shop, it was two weeks before school started and the boy couldn't wait so he convinced his dad to finally get his school supplies.

Leon watched as his father and sister walk down the busy alley, he looked around before walking over to where the brooms were, he looked at the brooms in awe as the kids next to him talk loudly.

His father always talked about his love for quidditch, he was the second best quidditch player at hogwarts, his best friend being the first. Matthias never talked about his past friends to which leon never understood but never really pushed.

He turned going to walk to ollivanders only to bump into a dark haired girl, paint staining her clothes, "Oh, sorry." Leon apologized, he was slightly taller than the girl so he kind of had to look down. "You're fine. I'm lilah." She held out her hand for him to shake.

"Leon." He smiled at the girl and shook her hand before dropping his hand back to his sides. It was silent for a moment, besides the busy alley before leon cleared his throat, "You paint?" he questioned, "What makes you think that." Lilah tilted her head, narrowing her eyes at him.

"Your..your shirt." He pointed slowly, the girl looked down at her shirt and made a noise, "Oh, well, yeah i do. Do you?" Leon shook his head, "I draw, but i'm not all that good." It was silent again as they both stared at each other awkwardly, trying to analyze each other and read each other's minds.

"So.." Leon trailed off, "Did you get your wand?" Lilah nodded, smiling as she pulled it out, leon examined the wand closely in awe. "It looks so cool." Lilah smiled widely, happy someone liked her wand. "It's dragon heartstring."

Leon was wondering if making friends was just as awkward and silent as this, the two kids tilted their heads in sync. Lilah narrowed her eyes again, "Is this what making friends is like?" The boy in front of her shrugged, just as confused.

"I don't know. You should know, you look like you have thousands of friends."

"But i don't. The only friend i have is my cat that i didn't even get yet. My parents barely let me go anywhere, i bet they don't even know that i snuck away." Leon's eyes widened and his mouth opened slightly, "You snuck away?! what are you crazy?" The girl shrugged, nodding to his question. "A bit. But can you blame me? I feel like i have the strictest parents ever."

Leon slightly nodded in understanding as they started to walk, "Hey, maybe you could—" Lilah shook her head, "No." The boy furrowed his brows, she didn't even let him finish what he was going to say. "You didn't—" She shook her head again. "No." Leon made a face, watching other kids run back to their parents.

"Okay." He paused, "You're weird." Lilah stopped in front of a shop, making him look up at the sign, "Here we are." Leon looked back at her with his head tilted, she then walked away without a word. "She's weird." He muttered then walked into the wand shop.

"Ah, i was wondering when i'd see you Mr. Astor." The man peaked his head around a bunch of boxes, leon smiled politely at ollivander who began to search through boxes before taking one out.

He took a wand out of the box and handed it to leon, The boy waved the wand only for a glass in a corner to break, "Apparently not." Leon placed the wand down with wide eyes, "I'm sorry." He said, looking at the broken glass and ollivander waved him off. "Don't worry about it."

He pulled another box and paused for a moment before walking back over to leon and pulled out the wand, leon took the wand, "11 inch, rowan wood and.. phoenix feather." The boy stared at him curiously before waving the wand.

Leon's mouth wide open a bit as he glowed under it, blowing his hair up and several of the paper work in the background, Ollivander looked surprised, "Now, you share a wand core with a named boy harry potter, he-who-must-not-be-named." Leon looked up at him, furrowing his brows. "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named?"

He never heard of that name, maybe his father mentioned him once but he couldn't remember that much, "Why mustn't he be named?" He questioned, his head tilted as he looked at ollivander, "It is said that saying his name gives him power. He did great things—terrible, but great." Leon made a face before he reached into his pocket and paid for his wand.

"Good day, sir." He waved and walked out of the shop, ollivander watching him go with knowing eyes. Leon looked around, stepping back before some long haired platinum londe bumped into him. His eyes lit up once he saw lilah in the distance, he went to walk over to her but paused once he heard his father calling his name.

"Where the hell have you been, kid? We went to ollivander's but you weren't there the first time. You had me worried." Matthias sighed in relief, spotting his son unharmed and good. "Sorry, i got distracted and went to look at the brooms..can i have one?" He looked up at his dad with pleading eyes.

"Maybe next year, you still have to learn." Matthias placed his hand on his son's head as lorelai came from behind him holding a small orange kitten with white on its face and stomach, "Dude, no way!" He reached forward and gently took the cat from his sister's hands.

"I named her fable!" leon narrowed his eyes at his sister, "It's not your cat!" He turned to his father, "It's not her cat, right?" Matthias chuckled and nodded to his son, "No it's not her cat. But fable is a great name for this cutie." He gently rubbed the kitten's head.

Leon gave them both a look before walking off silently whispering to the kitten, lorelai immediately followed behind of him, walking next to him and reaching up to pet the cat, matthias sighed and glanced to his right, spotting a man with long hair staring at him, holding a snake cane in his hands.

The two stared at each other, The other man staring at matthias with a small smirk, Matthias turned and caught up with his children. He recognized the man, He recognized that smirk from anywhere.

"Dad, stop worrying, i'll be fine." Matthias sighed and stepped back, fixing leon's wrinkled shirt, "I know, i know. I'll just miss my son." Leon rolled his eyes at his father. "You're acting like i'm going out to war." The man gave him a look before he smiled and pulled leon in for a hug.

"All right, all right." Leon gently pulled away from his father, "Don't give dad any more grey hairs, okay?" He turned to his sister who nodded, "Take care of fable!" Lorelai pointed. "Only if you take care of pluto for me." The girl nodded and held out her pinky, leon locked pinkies with his sister as the train whistled, signaling it's about to depart.

Other kids rush onto the train as leon waved bye to his sister and father before getting on, he looked around for five minutes before he found an empty compartment. He sat down and looked out the window, watching as everyone began to leave.

The door slid open and lilah came in, holding a book in her hands as she sat in front of leon, "I see you like to read." Leon said, trying to see what the book was called, "I see you like spider-man." She nodded to his shirt and shoes that had spider-man drawn on it.

Leon glanced down at his shoes then back up at her with a shrug, "What are you reading?" He asked, looking out at the passing trees and grass fields, the girl went to answer but they both turned, hearing the door slide open and in came a boy with baggy clothing.

"Hello, mind if i sit?" Leon and Lilah both shrugged and gestured for him to sit down, "I'm harry. Harry Potter." lilah's eyes lit up as she looked at him, "The Harry Potter?" Leon's gaze drifted between the two of them confusedly. "You know him?"

"You're not educated?" Lilah tilted her head at leon who narrowed his eyes at her then turned to harry, "I'm Leon Vasilios. That's lilah, she's a bit weird so i'd suggest you avoid her." The girl kicked leon's foot who yelped in pain.

Harry smiled at the two, they all turned, the door sliding open again and in came a redheaded boy, "Do you mind? Everywhere else is full." he asked, "Oh, not at all." Harry shook his head and gestured to the seat, the boy sat down next to lilah. "I'm ron, by the way. Ron weasley." He introduced himself.

"I'm Leon, that's Lilah." Leon smiled, pointing at the girl, "I'm harry. Harry potter." Ron's stared at him wide-eyed with his mouth agape. "So it's true! I mean, do you really have the.. the.." He motioned to his forehead and harry looked at him in confusion.

"The what?" Harry asked, "The scar." He leaned forward and whispered, "Oh." Harry lifted his bangs and revealed a lighting bolt shaped scar, "Wicked!" Ron grinned.

"Dude, that's sick." Leon said, his mouth hanging open slightly as he and lilah looked at the scar in awe. He never saw a scar like that before.

A lady appeared in front of their compartment, pushing a trolley, she slid the door open and looked at them "Anything off trolley, dears?" She asked, looking at the kids. "No, thanks. I'm all set." Ron held up a smushed sandwich.

"We'll take the lot." Leon, lilah and ron looked at the money in his hands, mouth open in awe, "Woah." A few moments later, The three boys sat eating candy while lilah read her book. "Bertie bott's every flavor beans?" Harry questioned, as he looked down at the package, looking at the back and the front.

A blonde girl opened the compartment door with a frown, "Can i sit here?" She asked, looking at the free space next to lilah and leon after harry and ron moved the candy to one spot. They all nodded, and she sat down close to the compartment doors, she then looked at all the candy in front of her with raised brows.

"I'm Celeste." Lilah smiled at her and introduced the boys one by one before she started to make small talk with celeste.

"They mean every flavor." Ron continued, chewing on a piece of candy, "There's chocolate and peppermint and there's also.. spinach, liver and tripe." He listed off, taking another bite of his candy, Harry and Leon grimaced at the last two flavors.

"George sweared he got a he got a bogey-flavoured one once!" Harry froze before he quickly took the bean he was chewing out of his mouth making leon laugh. The boy picked up a blue and gold package. "These aren't real frogs, are they?" He asked, looking at the package.

"It's just a spell. Besides, it's the cards you want. Each pack's got a famous witch or wizard. I got about 500 meself." Harry opens the package, a chocolate frog jumps onto the window and climbs up the window, stopping at the top, "Watch it!" Ron exclaimed. The girls paused their conversation and looked at the frog in shock.

The frog reaches the open gap in the window and jumps out. "Oh, that's rotten luck. They've only got one good jump in them to begin with." Ron shook his head, before he picked up another piece of candy. Harry looked at the card seeing Dumbledore. "I've got Dumbledore!"

"I got about six of him." Lilah narrowed her eyes at the redhead, "Only six? I've got thirty." ron glared at her, still chewing, "What you've been collecting since you were a baby?" He asked, shaking his head at her. The girl rolled her eyes and glanced back down at her book.

Harry looks at the card again, but Dumbledore has vanished, "Hey, he's gone!" Leon leaned over to see that he was in fact gone, "Well, you can't expect him to hang around all day, can you?" Ron questioned and his rat squeaks. "This is Scabbers, by the way. Pathetic, isn't he?"

"Just a little bit." They all agreed, "Fred gave me a spell as to turn him yellow. Want to see?" The boys grinned, sitting up excitedly. "Yeah!" Ron cleared his throat, he raised his his wand.

The door sliding open again. A bushy haired girl and a boy wearing their hogwarts robes looked inside. "Has anyone seen a toad?" She asked, sighing as she looked at them. "A boy named neville's lost one." Ron looked at her, making a face. "No." The girl looked at his wand. "Oh, are you doing magic? Let's see, then."

Ron looked taken aback as he looked at his friends, he cleared his throat before pointing his wand at his rat. Celeste laughed quietly, knowing this won't work or won't end well. "Sunhine, daisies, butter mellow. Turn the stupid fat rat yellow." He waved his wand, but nothing happened. Ron looked to the others with a shrug making them shrug.

"Are you sure that's a real spell? Well, it's not very good, is it?" Hermione said, leon stared at her in awe, his eyes lighting up. "Of course, i've only tried a few simple ones myself.. but they're all worked for me. for example:" Hermione walks in and sits across from Harry. She points her wand at his glasses and Harry tenses. "Oculus Reparo."

The tape on the noseband vanishes, repairing his glasses as if they were good as new. Harry takes them off, amazed. "Holy moly." Leon said in awe, leaning forward to see harry's glasses, Lilah and celeste share a look, shaking their heads at him.

"That's better, Isn't it? Holy cricket, you're harry potter! I'm Hermione Granger." She turned to her friend who were still standing, "Nicholas Graham." He gave them a thin smile. "Leon, lilah and celeste." The blonde pointed to the two then at herself.

"And.. you are?" She glanced at ron with unpleasant eyes, "Ron weasley." He said, his mouth full of food making the girls look at him in disbelief and disgust. Hermione made a face, "Pleasure. You four better change into your robes. I expect we'll be arriving soon." She gets up, walking out of the compartment with nicholas, then comes back and looks at Ron.

"You've got dirt on your nose, by the way. Did you know? Just there." She points to the dirt mark on Ron's nose, The scratches his nose, embarrassed. Leon shook his head at his friend with a sigh

"Why are you talking with your mouth full, idiot?" Lilah nudged ron's leg, "Don't do it ever again." The two girls glared at him making him shrink down and gulp loudly.
