New Beginnings
Chapter 1
"Call me at any time." I told them solemnly, catching both of my friends eyes. "I mean it. Anything at all, and you can just leave. Okay? You don't have to be here." I promised. Neville nodded seriously.
"We know. Thank you both, we should probably get in there though." He said with a sigh, visibly bracing himself.
"Did you remember the Muggle Repelling charms Hermione altered? It'll definitely help with the crowds of them." Harry advised quietly from beside me. Neville nodded once more. Luna was looking out the window distractedly, looking at some of the students passing by, looking at the dark car curiously.
"Come along Neville." Luna sighed out, a small smile peeking at the corners of her mouth. "We still have to go to the registration." She opened the door slightly, letting a few small raindrops slither in. I motioned Neville to come closer and when he did gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"It's just Muggle High school, right?" He half-joked.
"Right." I affirmed. "Just do keep your mobile with you." Then he and Luna exited the car swiftly, out into the biting rain and howling wind. I shifted the car into gear with a sigh and turned out of the parking lot, onto the highway. Harry looked out of the misted window silently on my right.
"Alright. Here's fine." He mumbled quietly, I pulled over to the side of the road. He opened the door and got out, leaning down slightly to speak. "I shouldn't be back later than five."
"Okay. Have a good day." I offered. He nodded once brusquely.
"Oh, and Hermione?"
"Yes Harry?" I asked, slightly worried.
"Love you." A small smile graced his lips before he shut the door carefully. I let my breath out softly, feeling slightly calmer. He walked a little ways into the forest and Disapperated. I looked at the spot he had stood in seconds ago feeling increasingly lonelier. I glanced in the rear-view mirror and saw Teddy was still sleeping peacefully in his car seat.
"Here we go..." I murmured to myself before pulling out, back onto the road.
