Chapter 33: A Home

December 20, King's Cross Station

Harry was one of the first students to leave the train and was promptly assaulted by something small that latched onto his leg.

"Harry!" The little girl called him with joy.

He looked down at the image of his little sister and could not help but smile. Harry got down on one knee and hugged her.

"Hello, Holly. How have you been?"

"It was boring!" She pouted.

"Dad is always working and mom never takes me anywhere!. Only Lyra gets to go to her friend's house, is not fair!"

"I see..." He did not expect this little girl to have so many complaints.

He then saw his mother running towards them.

"Holly!, what did I tell you about running off like that?!"

"But mom!, I haven't seen brother in so long..." Holly answered.

"Well talk about this later..." Lily's eyes moved to Harry and her expression brightened.

She quickly went to give him a warm hug.

"Welcome back, dear. How was your time at Hogwarts? I want to hear every detail...oh, but you must be tired after the long trip on the train, let's get you home first."

'Home, huh?' He was still getting used to this new life and the sensation of actually having a home, something he never had the chance to experience for long.

"Okay, you two. Hold on tight to me and don't let go." Both Harry and Holly did as told and Lily lifted her wand in the air.

A moment later, the trio disappeared from the busy station.

When Harry opened his eyes, he found himself at the entrance of the Potter Manor.

"Welcome!." The family house elf, Mipsy greeted them.

"Let me help you with that bag, Master Harry." The elf used her magic to levitate his small briefcase and carried it inside.

"I'm home." Said Harry, mostly to himself.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

He smiled.

"You'll have to wait until Christmas for that."

"Noo!, I want it now!" Holly exclaimed.

"Okay, maybe it was a mistake to mention that...lesson learned." Harry considered.

"Where did you get a gift from?" Lily asked with suspicion since first-year students are not allowed to leave the grounds.

"You'll have to wait too." He said.

A bit later, James Potter got home from work and welcomed Harry back.

"I heard of what happened during the quidditch game before Halloween...what a shame," James spoke.

"They haven't been able to play again without a seeker and had to forfeit the next game after that." Explained Harry

" I don't think they have a chance to win the Quidditch cup at this point. " James lamented.

"I don't know why you care so much about school quidditch to be honest..." Lily commented.

"But is our house! I will always care for Gryffindor and its quidditch team, as a former player... can't help it." James gave Harry a look.

"They should have chosen Harry to be the seeker."

"James!, he is still a first year. Quidditch can be dangerous, look what happened to poor Neville..." Lily pointed out.

"Oh well...there is always next year. Oh, Harry." James called his name.

"Yes?"

"There is something we need to talk about. Come to my studio after dinner."

"Sure." Harry wondered what it was about, he was sure it wasn't about his grades, he had made sure to keep them above average.

'It must be about that...'
