The sun seems as if it's following me as I walked down the street with a hood on, trying not to seem suspicious.

That being said, it was my fault for not running after Harry just after he decided to make Aunt Marge a human sized freaky balloon and running away into the moon light. I sighed as I walked around the corner almost tripping over the oversized shoes.

Twelve times, that's how many times I tried to steal Aunt Petunia's old shoes, not that she keeps anything old, except me. Aunt Petunia's a nightmare really, especially to Harry but he did escape her and that's not my case.

Ever since that giant Hagrid broke into our hut-hideout, Harry's life changed for the better. It was known that he was a Wizard and me..... just normal as the Dursleys wanted.

That was it, I was stuck forever in the Muggle World as a "squid" or something while Harry went on to live as wizard.

When Harry returned after his first year, I came to know everything about the Wizarding World and it was epic.

I found myself dreaming of leaving the Dursleys behind so I could go to the school of magic. More than once I considered asking Harry to take me with him and last year I would've done so if he didn't escape on a flying car.

You heard me right, a freaking flying car! I wonder if there are dragons or unicorns in the other side, like the other world, I mean the Wizarding World.

Seriously, I'm still stunned by magic, a little creeped out but stunned. Like seriously? Lift your wand up, and say few nasty words and boom, magic!

Getting to the point there was an official warning that any more magic performed and Harry would be expelled.

Here I am, on my way to King's Cross Station, to bid him goodbye like the previous year and the one before.

I mean even if I don't get to see Hogwarts and other magical stuff, I  get to see those Witchy Wizards wearing those cloaks and hats and holding pointy wands.

With that being my motivation I reached my destination.

I don't know why but I always imagine a bunch of kids standing infront of the, said barrier, trying to get through it. I dropped my hood down turning around to only bump into a man.

I almost fainted, curtsey to Aunt Petunia's feeding skills. The blond girl who was with the man steadied me from falling.

"Hogwarts?" She asked smiling brightly.

"Not exactly." I said shrugging, trying not to look like the weird mess I am.

"I get it. And here I thought I was the only one with humor. Hogwarts Express right?"

I laughed nervously. Frankly I have never been engaged in conversations with strangers and a witch in particular? Oh hell no.

"I'm sorry do I know you? I've never seen you before."

"Uh Guess I'm not that popular." I let out a nervous laugh again.

"Mm Hmm." The blonde girl mused. "What's your name?"

"Uh My name.... My name is umm Julia Roberts." I said without catching her eyes. (Seriously? Me? Julia Roberts?)

"Well Julia Roberts, I'm Alexandra Gray." She said sticking out a hand.

I took it nervously wondering how she bought my Julia Roberts story.

"We're shaking for too long." Alexandra said chuckling.

"Yeah right." I coughed and decided to walk away from her before she could ask anymore questions.

But there it was. Another one.

"What's your house?" She asked goggling at me through her blue eyes which surprisingly didn't pop out.

"I don't know the exact address but I live in Surrey. Now leav-" But before I could complete my sentence the blondie started cracking up.

"I didn't ask about the house you live in. I was talking about your Hogwarts House."

"My House?" I was caught off gaurd at this question. How would I know my Hogwarts House if I never had the chance to get to the bloody school!?

According to what Harry told me, the school had four houses and Harry was sorted into some red lion house. What was the other one? Pufflehuff?

"Hey Are you there?" Alexandra waved infront of me, causing me to get startled.

"Yeah I'm a Pufflehuff." I said with a smile trying not to sound like an idiot.

"Aren' you too funny for a Pufflehuff?" She giggled.

Wait, so there's a house with a name Pufflehuff? I wondered distantly before Alexandra interrupted my thoughts again.

"Good Lord! Look it's almost 11! We might miss the train if you keep chattering here." The man said looking at his wrist watch.

Alexandra caught me off gaurd again when she grabbed my hand.

"Where's your trunk?" She questioned looking at my empty hands.

"My trunk? Uh My parents must have taken it inside." I said pointing to the barrier.

"Great. Let's go then."

"What? Where?" I asked panicking. She didn't want me to get through that wall, did she?

"Not the time Julia." Alexandra said shaking her head grinning. She started to run towards the barrier with her hand in mine.

"Oh no!" I muttered to myself as we got close to the wall. "Goodbye Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia, Dudley and Harry! I'm about to die."

I shut my eyes, preparing myself for death. There are a million ways to die but I never imagined that I would die by running into a brick wall.

But it never happened. I never hit the wall.
