The Girl I Don't Know

Start from the beginning
                                    

"I'll miss you too, sis," he said. "Hey" he whispered looking around. "I couldn't get you something for your birthday, so here you go" he showed her a few gold coins.

"I can't take this, Bill. You paid for all of my stuff too, it's okay" she said.

"I have only two sisters, let me spoil them, will you?" He said with a grin. "And, not to brag, but being a Curse Breaker naturally means I'm a money man, and I've got more than enough for myself, it's not like a have another family, so..." Bill said, keeping the money in her hand, and folding it.

"Thanks, Bill," Emma said hugging him

"It's fine, now go," he said with a grin.

"Where's Charlie?" Molly asked, looking around before realizing he had already gone. "Oh, I had to give him this book."

"What is it, mum?" Emma asked

"It's his birthday present since he'll be at school at that time. It's a book on dragons" she replied.

"I'll give it to him" she offered. Molly smiled and handed her the book.

"Thanks, dear," she said and hugged her. "Now, you three, behave," she said to the triplets.

"Don't you think, that's too much to ask from them, mum?" Bill said smiling Molly shook her head, just as the whistle blew.

"Okay, now go. Get on the train' she said, ushering them onto the red Hogwarts Express. The kids climbed aboard, and leaned out of the window, waving aggressively.

Molly and Bill waved back with smiles on their faces, and the former blew them kisses.

"Take care!" Molly called, and the triplets nodded. Soon, the train was out of the station, and neither of them was visible.

Percy bid them a quick goodbye and left to find his friends

"C'mon let's find a compartment," Fred said.

They walked through the length of the train until finally reached an empty compartment, and they entered it.

Emma sat down across from the boys and produced a book from her bag. She loved reading muggle books, and the one she was reading was Twilight New Moon.

She had started reading the Twilight saga, just a few months back when Bill had suggested it to her. She had liked the first book, and deeming it a good time pass, had decided to finish reading the whole series.

"Oh, not that silly book about bloodsuckers again" George groaned. Emma glared up at him.

"Shut it. George" she snapped, averting her gaze back to the book again. "You boys will either leave the compartment or be quiet so I can read my book"

"Or what?" George challenged her, with a smirk. Emma looked up, with a raised eyebrow

"You seriously wanna go there, Georgie?" She asked. "Remember the last time when you asked me that same question?" She asked with a sweet smile. George's confidence faltered, as Fred watched them with a grin.

"I do" Fred piped up. "Wouldn't want a repeat of that now, would we?"

George immediately shut his mouth as the humiliating memory came rushing back to his mouth when Emma had poured a bottle of itching powder into the bucket full of water he was supposed to take bath in... And well the results weren't pretty.

"Good boy," she said getting back to reading her book.

"Hey, Ems?" Fred said.

"Hmm?"

"What's that book about anyways?" He asked

"It's about a Vampire, Edward Cullen, who lives in a small town Forks in Washington with his foster family. And then a human girl comes into town, Isabella Swan. They fall in lo and it's about their adventures together" she explained. "I don't know much as I'm just on the second book"

          

Fred nodded.

Just then they heard a knock on their compartment door. Looking up they saw a shy-looking girl with long brown hair. She was a little shorter than them but looked about their age.

Emma nodded at the girl, to come in. She entered

"Hey, um, sorry to disturb you, but all the other compartments are full, and well." She said sheepishly.

Emma smiled kindly at the girl, and so did Fred and George

"It's okay, you can sit with us" Emma offered and her brothers nodded. The girl's face lit up with gratitude and she smiled. That was the first time Emma properly looked at her, as she had been looking downwards and her face was curtained by her long hair. She realized that the girl was quite pretty, but at the same time shy.

"Thanks," she said and sat down next to Emma

"I'm Katie Bell," she said.

"I'm Emma Weasley" Emma introduced herself. "And these are my brothers."

"I'm Fred," Fred said

"I'm George," George said. Katie politely smiled at them

"Isn't your dad, Arthur Weasley?" She asked, Fred, nodded.

"Yeah, he works in the Ministry of Magic, in the Misuse of Muggle Artefacts office," George said. "You know him?"

"Yeah, my dad's his colleague, Mathew or Matt Bell. He talks highly of Mr. Weasley" Katie replied.

"Your dad's Matt Bell?" Fred asked, with raised eyebrows. "We know that guy, great mon"

Emma grinned. She shut her book and put it inside her bag.

"Hey, you read the Twilight books too?" Katie asked.

"Yeah, I'm on the second one" Emma replied

"I've read them all," she said with a smile. "I love them"

"You're into muggle books?" Emma asked

"Sure, I'm half-blood. My mum's a muggle and a librarian, so I've read quite a few books from her library" Katie replied.

"That's so cool," Emma said. "You can read any book anytime!

Katie grinned. "I didn't know Purebloods read muggle books"

"Many of them don't, the conservative ones like the Malfoy family," Emma said.

"Yes, I've heard about that family. Lucius Malfoy, right?" Katie asked.

"Yep" Emma replied.

"Our families don't get along," Fred said.

"Get along?" George scoffed. "More like, our families can't even stand each other."

"I can get you some books from mum's library if you want?" Katie offered to look at Emma,

"You will?" She asked, surprised.

"Sure, why not," Katie said.

"Thanks, I'd love that," Emma said, when the compartment door slid open, revealing a dark-skinned guy, about their age, with dreadlocks.

"Hey guys, I'm sorry for crashing your little party, but all the other compartments are full,” he said.

The others smiled.

"You're welcome, man," Fred said. The guy grinned and entered the compartment, shutting the door behind him.

"Hello ladies," he said winking at them. "I'm Jordan, Lee Jordan," he said stretching out his hand towards George, who took it.
