Today was the day. The day I would finally see that damn wizard on a daily basis. We used to sit by the sycamore tree in my back garden he'd do incredible things and i'd sit there and watch as he'd make daisies bloom in the palm of his hand and whilst he was amazed at what he could do I was looking at his energetic smile and fair skin with his hair folded to one side with his swiped fringe falling over his right eye. But then it happened. I was just lying around then i felt it tapping on the back of my head, I turn around and what do I see? A teapot! A floating teapot! Tapping me on the back of my head. I was ecstatic. I had magical powers I could go to this school Kay was always talking about. Hogwarts did he say it was called. My parents were so confused and to be honest so was I. I could suddenly do these things but I had no control over what they were the only thing I could control was what I did it to. For example I concentrated and made my budgie cage float but then when I tried to do it to my suit case it turned green. I mean come on how do I control this!? The following afternoon i was sitting underneath the same sycamore tree talking away to Kay, it was a beautiful day, we were simply talking about my following birthday (which was tomorrow) and what we were going to do for it it was very special after all as Kay had said that as it was my eleventh birthday that I would receive a letter from Hogwarts explaining everything I needed for school, although Kay had already told me most of what was required, a wand, a set of cloaks and hats for all seasons, a cauldron and sets of magical books but that was only the half of it. "Do you wanna come over to mine?" I suddenly heard Kay say breaking my train of thought, "Excuse me?" I asked, "I said do you wanna come over to mine" Kay stated with a big grin spreading from the corners of his mouth and eventual going from ear to ear. I really did want to see all his parents wizardy stuff. "Sure but only if you want me to." I said as I came to a very quick conclusion. Kay laughed and managed to giggle through the word "I was the one that asked you you twat". I gave him a firm punch on the arm and laughed at my own stupidity, right as I did I felt myself shoved to the ground. Kay had shoved me and for a spilt second I thought shit had I upset him please don't. Then he did it. The bastard started tickling me "No" i managed to wheeze out through fits of giggles and tears. "Alright, alright I'll stop but don't try that with me now" he had said with the smuggest grin on his face. "Let's go he said" He then covered us with this odd blanket but i didn't feel like anything I'd ever felt in my life. it seemed to flow in my hands and to my shock I couldn't see our reflections in the windows we passed. An invisible blanket that's so cool I thought. We went into his house and discussed my birthday plans it was going to be a nice picnic with food provided by Miss Morgause, Kay's mum, in my back garden. After getting everything arranged me and him went home and he dropped me off at my house. I then went upstairs and lied on my bed and just thought about random stuff but no matter what I thought about it always seemed to end up at Kay dropping me off home. Fuck i'm gay i heard myself say aloud and giggled at my own god damn cliche. I got up and played cluedo with my family until 8 it was nice my dad had lost every game and my mum had won just as many times as I had even though I swear she had cheated, but afterwards I went upstairs had a nice shower and slowly drifted off.
I yawned and heard my back click like a packet of spaghetti being broken but damn did it feel nice. Then it hit me. I'm eleven. No that wasn't it. I looked around my room and saw it a letter sitting on the side of my bed side table. I rushed over to it and read it aloud "Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Headmaster: Professor Hudley
Dear Ansel Moonfoot ,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment. Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31.
Yours sincerely,
Deputy Headmistress"
Oh. My. God. I went racing down the stairs with the letter in my hand only to find Kay and his parents sitting in our living room chatting. I had just burst in on them and i was wearing nothing but my star wars lounge pants. But heyyo there's nothing I could do know because they were all staring at me so I went for it "Kay the letter it just arrived I'm in" he ran up to me and hugged me. I repeat he hugged me, when i'm half naked and hugged me. "Anyways" I said trying to get rid of the thought "we need to get all this stuff don't we, but from where. I mean I don't see Al's pet shop selling an owl" then I saw it again his smug face twisted into a humongous grin "You and I are gonna go to Diagon Alley".
