21A Kiley 1 09 Fic.
Disowner: Do I seem like I'm as good as a writer as J.K. Rowling? I don't think so.
I was standing besides the Hogwarts Express looking for my friends and family. I've been away for the summer at a Quidditch Camp. It was an absolute great time but I was gone for the WHOLE summer and missed my family. Especially my best friend, Victoire. I haven't seen her in so long, it was killing me!
It's my last year here at Hogwarts and I'm sad that in a little less than 10 minutes I'll be boarding the train for the last time to go to Hogwarts.
"TED! Dude, how have you been?! How was camp? Love the red hair!" Sam said hurriedly when he ran over to me.
Sam was my best guy-friend and he was quite a ladies' man. He had dirty blond hair and bright blue-green eyes. All the girls LOVED him and the all the guys were pretty good mates with him too, because he was fair and funny.
"Hey Sam, I've been great, the camp was awesome! I'll have to tell you all about it when we get on the train!" I said
"Sure, sure. That's great! I'll talk to you on the train; Miss Brianna Hedgings is looking really fine this year! I'm gonna go hook up with her. Catch you later!"
I laughed at my friends antics. It was so him to find a girl before we even stepped on the train.
I spot my god-father and his family over near a pillar so I walk over to them,
"Oh Teddy! You've grown so much!" My Aunt Ginny said, ruffling my hair. I grinned at her,
"Thanks. I hope you liked the letters and gifts I sent you!" I sent them letters and a couple of awesome findings that I discovered at camp.
"Oh yes, very much so. The kids absolutely loved them!" Aunt Ginny exclaimed
I felt a little tug on my jeans and looked down to a bright face belonging to my little god-sister, Lily.
"Hey Teddy! I loved the bracelet you bought me! Thank you!"
"Sure Lils, anytime!" I said down to her cute little face. She had red hair much like a combination of her two grandmothers and her own mother. But she had her mother's chocolate brown eyes that a bit of green speckles that dotted the brown. When she grew up she would be quite a stunner.
I hear some hushed arguing behind me and see Albus and James, my god-brothers, fighting over something. Probably the perfect way to pull the perfect prank.
"Hey guys what's up?" I asked,
They immediately stopped their banter, and turned towards me like they totally just realized I was standing there.
"Hey Ted, how was camp?" James asked
"Great. It was a lot of fun." I said to him. He's a second year now and created enough mischief for the whole school.
"Teddy, do you know where Fred is?" Albus asked. He was going to Hogwarts next year and when those two were together plus their cousin Fred who was a first year with their other cousin, Louis. Total Choas.
When those four are put together in one castle filled with secrets and magic, there is absolutely nothing good that could come out of that situation.
"No I don't Albus, sorry."
Fred was Uncle George and Aunt Angelina's son and Roxanne was their daughter but Roxanne was only going to Hogwarts a year or so after Albus. And Louis is Uncle Bill and Aunt Fleur's youngest. He is Fred's age and he, Freddy, James, and Albus were all a bunch of pranksters. Always getting into things that weren't at all meant to get into. Last year James caught me snogging Elizabeth Caratter. That was a great story for Christmas dinner. Yep, it was just brilliant.
"So Teddy you look like you got a good tan from camp," Harry said
"Yea it was really hot playing Quidditch out there, but once you started zooming around than you got a little air and it felt brilliant."
"I bet it did. Nice hair by the way." Harry said chuckling
My hair was bright red for Gryffindor and my eyes were a light golden color. What could I say? I'm a Gryffindor.
I grinned at him and noticed Hugo, another cousin, of course, came over and sat with Albus and James going over their 'plan' again. He was about two years younger than Albus. He was actually about Lily's age. And they've became quite the best friends over the years. And of course Rose was there too. Rose and Albus were best friends and the same age. They did EVERYTHING together. They reminded me of the adventures me and Vic used to have.
Rose and Hugo were Aunt Hermione and Uncle Ron's kids. As the adults turned to talk to each other and the younger kids all huddled together, I turned around looking for anymore of the family. It was getting close to boarding the train and I was dreading it. I love Hogwarts because that's truly my home but if I could just stay here in this moment, I would be so happy.
Finally I see Louis come running up with Freddy and sit down with Hugo, Albus, and James.
Merlin, save Professor McGonagall in a few years when all of them will be at Hogwarts TOGETHER, I thought, shaking my head.
Wait, if Louis was here than that meant Victoire was here too. I became giddy as the thought seeing my best friend again ran through my head. I looked around and saw Dominique, who's the middle child of Fleur and Bill, run to her friends laughing copiously. I keep looking around for my best friend, but I can't see her.
"TEDDY! TEDDY!" I hear and I turn around just in time to see Victoire running at me. I grin at her and she smiles right back and I close the short distance between us easily. I open my arms and she runs right into them. She jumps right on me. Her arms are tightened around my neck and her body pressed close. I grin and hold her tightly and then pick her up a little a swing her around.
Merlin, how much I missed her. We've never went more than 3 days without talking. Our letters were the same but to actually see her and hear her voice were the best.
She laughed her wonderful laugh and finally we loosened our holds on each other. She stepped back and said,
"Let me see you . . . ." I grinned at her and turned around for effect. She laughed but I could see her eyes roaming over me curiously. "Wow, you've grown." She said finally.
I laughed, "Okay now your turn, let me see you!" I said. She grinned and held her arms out and spun for me.
Holy Merlin.
She was no longer a little girl, nor an awkward 14 year old. She was a gorgeous woman. Her long blond hair with a light red tint was in light curls, her almost non-existent freckles that marked her as a Weasley were elegantly placed across her nose and dotted on a small part of her cheeks, her jeans were really nice fitting and she was wearing a shirt that showed a bit of her belly and she had curves in all the right places. She looked beautiful. She really grew up. And this weird feeling of warmth started to grow in my stomach. I had no idea what that was.
I made my jaw drop for effect and she walked right over to me grinning and took her hand and gently put my jaw back up to its normal height on my face. I grinned at her.
"Well, well Miss Weasley you sure have done nothing but grow up. You certainly did not get younger."
"Oh shut up you." She said but I saw the blush on her cheeks.
The whistle blows a 5 minute warning and we turn around to face our family who we had no idea, but they were staring at us peculiarly watching the whole time. Okay . . . . weird.
Aunt Fleur had her hand halfway to her mouth, Bill was giving me a slight glare, Aunt Ginny was smiling, Harry was making his laugh into a cough, Uncle Ron looked like he was about to have a heart attack and Aunt Hermione just looked thoughtful. Of course Uncle George was enjoying this and having a laughing fit while his wife swatted him on the arm and told him to shush. But she was grinning too. And Uncle Percy and Aunt Audrey were completely oblivious to it all.
My jaw dropped and I sputtered,
"What?! Wh- What?!" I shook my head forcefully, "NO, No .." I said to all of them. Bill sighed in relief, Aunt Fleur put her fists on her hips, Uncle Ron looked like he was going to faint, and the rest of them were all grinning. Of course James and Albus and the rest of the small cousins were just staring at us having no idea what was going on. But then again I saw James's eyes flutter between me and Victoire.
"No James. No." I said to the second year. James just grinned and the grin he sent me was not a nice one. It was more like, your-in-for-one-hell-of-a-year.
Brilliant.
I turn around to see Victoire's reaction to this but she had no idea what was going on. Or maybe she did but pretended she didn't. I should of done that too. Except I still don't if she really DID know what was going on or not.
Life is so much more complicated at this moment. Soon I heard Victoire's name being shouted from her friends near the train so she said goodbye to all the family and James and Freddy and Louis and Dominique did that too. Soon it was my turn.
I went over to all my Aunts and kissed them on the cheek, and Aunt Ginny whispered in my ear,
"Don't let her get away from you, sweets." I went red in the face and I'm pretty sure my hair just went neon red. She laughed and patted my cheek. "Trust me," she said.
I shook all the guys' hands and Harry laughed at me with closed eyes. Uncle Bill was unsure of taking my hand.
"Look after my baby, and please, don't do anything stupid." He said to me.
I went red again and nodded. I put my hand on my neck and rubbed it.
"Okay yea I'll write to you guys." And after I finished hugging all the other cousins I saw Victoire waiting for me at the entrance to the train. I went over to her and we grinned, this was going to be a good year but confusing I think. Right before we board we both look back and wave and grin to our family. They all wave back and I hold my arm out saying 'ladies first' and she goes up the stairs than I.
"I'm gonna go sit with my friends, alright? We have to talk later though! I wanna hear all about your summer!" She looked at me and then said, "I missed you a lot. I'm glad your back." Then she gave me a tight hug and kissed my forehead, making me slightly light headed and my forehead tingled. I felt her silky hair brush on to my neck while she was hugging me and I nearly shivered.
"Okay, I missed you lots too, Vic." I said and I hugged her back, loving the feeling of her against me. She smiled,
"Tell Sam I said hi!"
"I will."
"Good, see you later." And she waved at me and walked to her compartment. I watched her all the way. Her hair was so pretty and she herself was amazing. I love how witty, and smart, and clever, and how kind she is. Plus we tell each other everything. She is my best friend and hopefully will always be.
I walk down to my compartment and open it, ready to sit down and tell Sam all about the camp.
Of course, I walked into Sam snogging the living daylight's out of that Brianna girl he was going to get earlier. Ick. I really hate walking in on my best mate snogging. It's really repulsing.
"Sorry!" I said and Sam still with his eyes closed, kissing the girl, made a shooing motion with his hand. I quickly walked out and found myself just walking around the train. It was extremely boring.
So I decided to see what James and Freddy and Louis were up to. I walked down the compartments until I found them.
What I found was sweet. Freddy and Louise had their heads together devising no doubt ANOTHER prank mission but James and this girl with red hair and blue-green eyes sat next to each other laughing and . . . . . . . Holding HANDS! Oh this was to good! I watched as Freddy and Louis looked up at me with questioning looks but I put my finger to my lips telling them to be quiet. I saw James stare adoringly at her and she smiled sweetly at him. I slowly shut the door making sure I didn't make a sound. They're only 12. WOW. If he can get a girl than why can't I? I chuckled to myself. I really didn't care. I guess I was looking for someone to love not like anymore.
I just had to show Victoire this! So I ran down to her compartment. I decided against knocking and just pulled it open and jumped in.
"Hello Ladies!" I cheerfully said to Elle and Tracey and Vic. Who when I walked in were all laughing crazily. They were all grinning at me.
"Hello Ted how's it going?" Tracey asked me
"Good I was away all summer and missed Victoire over here, by the way do you mind if I borrow her for a short time?" I hurriedly grabbed her elbow and still both of us grinning, I gently pulled her up so she was standing and pulled her out of the compartment with me, "Thanks girls! Knew you wouldn't mind!" I said even though they gave no answer.
"Ungrateful git, Lupin!" Tracey shouted at me jokingly
"Bring her back soon!" Elle hollered.
"Sure thing!" I said over my shoulder. When we pretty far away and it was just us in the train's hallway I stopped and started laughing.
"What's so funny, Teddy?" Victoire asked me with her fists on her hips looking quite like Aunt Fleur. I chuckled.
"I have something to show you. I think you'll be really surprised. But you have to be really quiet."
"What is it?" she whispered,
"It has something to do with James and a surprise."
Her eyebrows rose and she crossed her arms.
"If anything gets on my hair I promise I will hex both you and James into oblivion!" Victoire threatened.
I chuckled at her face earning myself a rather well aimed punch that I merely dodged in time.
"Now shush, I have to show this to you."
I lead her to James's compartment. I opened the door slowly and quietly. You have no idea how oblivious people can be when your only door in a small room is opened. I beckon to her with my hand and she steps forward so that we are next to each other hiding slightly on either side of the doorway just in case James or his companion look up.
Victoire gasps slightly putting her hand to her mouth. James holding the red heads hand leans over and kisses her cheek quite bashfully. It was rather adorable. I looked over and saw Vic have a smile on her face watching them. Lou and Freddy see us and are about to interrupt James and his girl so we hurriedly shut the door super silent and run back to her compartment.
"That was so sweet!" Victoire exclaimed as we walked back down the hallway
"I know. Last time I saw them he didn't even look like he had enough guts to hug her. Just hold her hand."
"Well you know, holding hands isn't so bad." And with that she gently grabs my hand and intertwines our fingers. As we walked she slightly swung our hands and my hand started to tingle. I looked at her and she gave me a smile. She flicked her head making her long hair fall over shoulder. And then it slid back down her backside and I got a good look of her front from my angle. I have one thing to say.
She was definitely not a girl anymore.

A/N: At first I was like, I'm so not putting this UP but then I decided I would. And I have a New idea for this story. I decided to make it a story with random one shots and maybe a continuous of two shots at times. Tell me if you like this idea. I think I do and tell me if you want even me to put up another chapter. Thanks a bunch!
