A/N: so... my first story is on Temp. hold while I regain my desire to write it... oops. Anywho... this is my new story which is a crossover between Twilight and Harry Potter... if you're going to talk shit to me about crossing the two then turn around and dont read :)
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight or Harry Potter :( sad day... nor do I own any characters you recognize... (I dont even really own Desirae (cause she's a weasley) Alissa (cause she's a Zabini) or the Finnigan twins)
Summary: Desirae Weasley is the fourth oldest of Bill and Rayne Weasley (I am fully aware that Bill marries Fleur.. I do like her, but not in this story) when she and her best friends get chosen for an exchange program and go to Forks Washington to attend muggle school she meets Emmett Cullen and pretty much falls in love on the spot. But, life wont be easy for Emmett and Des... they'll face accusations by one of Desirae's closest friends, protective fathers, hideous wedding dresses and much more. EmxOC ExB AxJ RxOC BLACKWATER
The alarm clock gave a shrill screeching noise as it went off on the morning of August 15th. I smacked my hand over it and lay on my back, arm thrown over my face. I sat up slowly and grimaced. It was 9:30 and it was summer. Unfortunately for me, our Hogwarts letters come today—that means getting up at an ungodly hour and going to Diagon Alley.
I stumbled towards the bathroom that I shared with my two younger sisters, Faelynne and Georgia, and turned the shower on. I took a quick shower and downed a glamour potion that would dry my hair fast. As my hair dried I did my makeup—black eye liner, mascara, and a light dusting of cocoa colored eye shadow—and put on deodorant. I slipped on my dressing gown and went back to my room.
I slid into a pair of zebra panties and a matching bra before opening my closet to find some clothes. After a quick browse I decided on an orange tank top, a skirt—which had orange flowers on it—a pair of green heels, and a black belt. I pulled the skirt up to my navel and put on the belt, then I fingered my hair to see if it was dry enough. I brushed it quickly, and then, looking in the mirror decided that it was good enough.
As I entered the hall I was met by the noises of my family. I'm the 4th born out of 6. I have two older sisters and an older brother along with the two younger ones. Elli is the oldest at 27, then it's David at 26, Sidnie is 24, I am 16, and the twins are 14. I don't really understand why my parents waited 6 years after Sid to have me, but as far as I'm concerned—Hagrid brought me to my parents on a motorcycle (my parents are virgins!).
'Oi! Des!' I hear David yell. Elli, David, and Sid are all home on holiday—Elli works in Africa trying to find a cure for lycanthropy, David is a curse breaker like our dad, and Sid is a model. With the three of them being home, our house is a lot louder than it is when it's just Faelynne, Georgia, and I.
'What do you want, David?' I asked him, leaning against his door.
'Nothing, little sister. Mum just wanted me to tell you that your Hogwarts letter has arrived.' He mumbled, not looking up from his book.
'Alrighty. Thanks, brother.' I grumbled, rolling my eyes. I slid down the banister in a very not lady-like manner and landed on the floor in the living room. With a groan I picked myself off the floor and stumbled into the kitchen. I grabbed an apple and bit into it as I sat at the table. A few minutes later Fay and Georgia walked in, wearing identical (but different colored) shirts and denim skirts. Rolling my eyes at them I finished my apple and threw it in the trash.
'Faelynne, Georgia, please eat so we can get going.' Mum said, entering the kitchen. She handed me my Hogwarts letter and I started to open in. 'You know, dear, that letter is much heavier than Elli, David, and Sid's 7th year letters were.'
I nodded wordlessly and ripped open the letter. I pulled out the first page and began to read.
To Miss Desirae Weasley,
Desirae, as you know on your final day of term last June you finished your advanced placement N.E.. Below are your results.
Oh yeah, I forgot to tell Mum and Dad that I was given the chance to take them early. I read on, hoping to find good news.
Defense against the dark arts: O
Transfiguration: O
Herbology: E
Potions: O
Care of Magical Creatures: O
Ancient Runes: E
Arithmancy: O
Charms: O
Astronomy: E
Muggle Studies: O
I could feel the grin spreading across my face as I read my results. I looked back at the letter and saw that there was another page.
Desirae, seeing as you passed all of your N.E. with flying colors, you have been chosen, along with 5 other students to participate in a Year Abroad program. This program will be different than other programs. The 6 students chosen were all chosen from Professor Lund's Muggle Studies class. If your parents approve of it, you'll spend the year living in Muggle America, going to a muggle school, and learning muggle customs. However, there will be rules, which are listed on the permission form. We sincerely hope that you will attend this fabulous opportunity, Miss Weasley.
Signed,
Minerva McGonagall, Headmistress
Neville Longbottom, deputy Headmaster.
I gaped at the paper, feeling slightly excited and slightly nervous.
'Close your mouth, Love, it's unattractive.' I heard Dad say as he joined our Mum at the table.
'Here Mum, you might want to read this.' I told her, handing her the letter. Five minutes later she was making the same face as I was before. I saw Dad reading it over her shoulder and he gave me an impressed look.
'You got to take advanced placement N.E.?' Mum asked in disbelief. I nodded.
'So, can I do it?' I asked them. They looked at each other, then Mum cast a silencing charm so we wouldn't be able to hear them discuss it. While they were discussing it I read the rules.
Year Abroad rules:
All students in attendance must have parent's permission.
All students must be prepared to (almost) completely give up magic for the year.
All students will attend school.
All students will behave as you would at Hogwarts (And James, that does not mean snogging a girl in the Head's Office during detention).
All students must cooperate with each other, the staff of your school, and Professor Lund.
Professor Lund will be acting as your legal guardian—treat her with the respect you would give to your Grandmum.
All students must be equipped with the following:
Muggle clothing (more than 1 or 2 outfits gentlemen)
Muggle money (galleons can be transfigured for you the Goblins of Gringotts
Muggle school supplies (pens, notebooks, etc.)
Each student may bring, if they so desire, other personal items to decorate their living quarters
Their brains and an attitude to learn (we want you to take from this experience.
If you have permission, please have your parents sign below.
'Alright, love, we've decided that you can go, as long as you do a few things.' Dad started. I looked up at him. 'One- write us once a week, and send it home, via floo. Two- behave. Three- no joining any gangs. Four- we expect you to come home with your innocence intact. Five- no boys. Six- don't do any illegal stuff. Seven- bring something home for your old Granddad.' I squealed.
'You guys are serious. I can go!' I hugged them happily. 'But, I find one problem with your rules. What if I find a super sweet guy who treats me absolutely perfect. Then can I have a boy?' I asked. Dad thought for a moment.
'Alright, then. Only if Professor Lund approves of him.' Dad finally decided. 'Now, let's see this rules sheet.' I handed it over, and ten minutes later my permission form was flying back to Hogwarts.
Within the next hour we were ready to leave. We flooed to Diagon Alley where we met up with the Potters and the Granger-Weasleys.
'Hey Des. Hey, hey, Des.' James cooed. I glanced at him.
'Yes, Jamie?' I replied sweetly. James threw an arm over my shoulder.
'Guess who's going to muggle America this year?' He asked cheekily.
'How'd you know I was going?' I replied. He stared at me.
'You're going too?' It was an excited squeak. James and I have been best friends since birth, so we were naturally excited to live together for a year.
'Well yeah, someone has to go and make sure Lund doesn't AK herself.' I replied with a grin.
'Alright you two. Now that both of you are going, we need to decide who's taking you to muggle London to buy your stuff with you.' Mum said. Everyone looked at Uncle Harry and Aunt Hermione.
'We'll do it, then, if no one else will.' The two friends grumbled to the parents. James and I looked at each other and grinned.
Soon enough I was back in my room, packing my trunk to leave for America.
Two days later I received another letter from McGonagall. We'd be leaving on August 30th via train, then airplane. The final days before my departure were filled with happiness and sadness. They day before we left, Gran and Granddad had a party to celebrate James and I's smartness.
A/N: Yes, no, Des, you need to stop writing for ever? tell me what you think. Though I do think fire is pretty, flames hurt... cunstructive critisism is always appreciated.
Random piece of information that will probably not entertain you: So, on Monday I was on STUMBLEUPON- great website for when you're bored- and I came accross this post from Yahoo Answers... the question was along the lines of Jacob Black or Sirius Black?
the girl who asked the question had no idea at all what she was saying. ::
I've been a hardcore Twilight fan even before it was popular. So like, the other day I was reading Harry Potter and the character of Sirius Black turns into a werewolf. They totally ripped it off Twilight because Jacob and his gang were were wolves first. Also the dumb *** writer of Harry Potter didn't even think to change the last name of the character she ripped off Twilight. I mean both their names are Black and they are BOTH werewolves! Wow. The question is, why do people like Harry Potter more than Twilight? It's a cheap ripoff of Twilight.
Is this chick Fucking stupid? (pardon my language) 1. Harry Potter was written WAY before twilight... 2. though I do love twilight, HARRY POTTER IS MY LIFE 3. It pissed me off so much when I read this 4. WHY would someone rip off twilight. 5. Harry Potter is way more successful than twilight (Does twilight have it's own amusement park? NO) 6. THe other people giving her shit made my day better... 7. Sirius is an animagus which is much more badass than a shapeshifter...
as the great Stephen King said, "Harry Potter is all about confronting fears, finding inner strength and doing what is right in the face of adversity. Twilight is about how important it is to have a boyfriend." Hehe...
