Fourth Year (Thanks to Southeast Wildman for the Power of Love, Thank You)
Frank walked over, picked Neville up, and held him high in his arms, laughing heartily. "What's wrong, my little man! Don't always cry, okay? What do you want to eat this morning? But your mother has already made you Yorkshire Pudding. She got up very early to make it, so you have to eat a lot later, otherwise, your mother can be quite scary when she gets angry."
"I'll definitely eat it all! I love Yorkshire Pudding too! After I finish, I want to go to the zoo. Harry says it's amazing, and I've never been..."
"Our baby is the best! How about we go after we finish eating?" Alice looked at her husband and child, her eyes red.
"Oh, right, Mom, I've kept all the candy wrappers you gave me over the years! Grandma always told me to throw them away, but I kept them. Whenever I'm sad, I take them out and look at them, and it feels like Mom is right beside me. That makes me feel less sad. I always forget things, but I never forget Mom's candy wrappers! I've also made many friends at Hogwarts! Yousu Yu, Hermione, Harry, Ron... And many teachers at the house are very kind to me! Professor McGonagall is very gentle, Professor Snape is very strict... It's just that sometimes I'm a little clumsy, I always forget things, and I get into a lot of trouble, but my classmates are all very nice, they don't blame me... Actually, what I wanted to say was, Mom and Dad, don't worry, I'm doing very well at school, I'm very happy every day, it's just... I miss you a little..."
Because of the upcoming Christmas party, everyone needs to bring a dress or gown when they go to school this time. The girls have been getting together for the past few days, constantly having the designer take their measurements and discussing the details. Even Ginny has come to help design her new dress, although she still has to go back to school tonight.
Kurama kept pestering Su Yu for a pretty little dress, one that had to be filled with gold coins and make a clattering sound when she walked. Su Yu, having no other choice, made her a longevity lock out of gold and put it around her neck. These past few days, Kurama had been very happy, constantly shaking her head wherever she went, making the longevity lock clatter. She then proudly held her head high, even refusing to wear her Philosopher's Stone and storage necklace. Seeing her adorable appearance, Su Yu added the Philosopher's Stone and storage necklace to the longevity lock as well. Now Kurama was even more smug, no longer pestering for a little dress, but instead demanding a new set of big gold teeth. She said she was inspired by a movie she watched last night, and only after Su Yu spanked her did she quiet down.
A few days have passed in the blink of an eye, and today is the first day of school again. In fact, as early as last night, Butler Carson had put the luggage of the girls in a separate car. Moreover, considering the number of people, Butler Carson had also ordered a long-wheelbase Rolls-Royce in advance, specifically for picking up and dropping off the girls on their daily outings. As for Su Yu, oh, the young master, he was just there by chance.
"What a beautiful day!" Su Yu sipped his cola while watching the heavy rain outside the window. Kurama- Tailed Fox was sprawled out beside him, munching on cheesecake, occasionally glancing up to pull down the longevity lock around his neck, obscuring his food...
"Could you please stop shaking your longevity lock during such a beautiful time? It's ruining the atmosphere. I want to hear the rain."
"Splash, splash!"
"Su Yu, are you ready? We're about to leave!" Hermione shouted from the doorway.
"Okay, I'm coming!" After saying that, Su Yu ignored Kurama's objections, picked her up, and went out.
"Waaah... waaah... my cheesecake! My cheesecake! I haven't finished it yet!" Kurama Fox struggled with her four short legs, but Su Yu didn't care. It was her fault for ruining the atmosphere. However, before getting into the car, he still waved his hand, and the unfinished cheesecake flew over. He just didn't like to waste food.
When the group got off at King's Cross Station, the rain was even heavier than it had been that morning, pouring down in torrents.
Platform Nine and Three-Quarters was bustling with young wizards. Harry and Ron were sitting by the window, saying goodbye to Charlie, Bill, and Mrs. Weasley. Ginny was waiting for Su Yu and his friends in the Slytherin box the students had prepared for them. Hermione, carrying Crookshanks, rushed into the carriage first, excitedly chatting with Ginny about this year's lessons. Daphne was still wiping Kurama's mouth; she had just eaten cheesecake the whole way and had been uncooperative at the station, saying she would eat more on the train anyway, so why wipe her mouth? Wasn't that redundant? She hated wiping mouths...
Isolde went back to school early, after all, she still had her work to do, so Su Yu, with his arms around Ka-jie and Fa-jie, slowly walked towards the carriage.
"Our little man is going to Hogwarts today!" Alice exclaimed happily, hugging Neville.
"Go for it, son! Study hard at school, and most importantly, be brave, okay?" Frank bent down and patted Neville's head.
"I will! Mom and Dad!" Neville nodded vigorously.
"Those are Neville's parents?" Ron looked at the two people next to Neville in surprise.
"Yes, Su Yu said he was going to treat Neville's parents, and it seems they're doing quite well. This is the first time I've seen Neville with this expression," Harry said, adjusting his newly bought glasses.
"We are too, we look a bit like, uh... Brave Neville? That's really cool, isn't it?" George and Fred chimed in.
"It's so good to see Neville like this." Hermione sentimental person, almost cried in Su Yu's car; she was genuinely happy for her friend.
Su Yu was still the same as always, lying on Daphne's lap, listening to the rain outside, enjoying himself so much that he forgot all about home.
Kurama lay on the table, teasing Crookshanks below with her tail, yawning as she ate her fill and began to feel sleepy.
In the Slytherin carriage, everyone was discussing this year's Triwizard Tournament. Malfoy was talking animatedly, thankful he hadn't gone to Durmstrang. He said his mother was so good to him, and it was all his father's fault for almost sending him Durmstrang, saying they placed great importance on Dark Magic. "Hmph," he thought, "It's just Dark Magic, he learned it in his first year!" Pansy and Dumbass were clapping and applauding, while Malfoy grinned foolishly at Pansy.
Pansy recently noticed that Malfoy seems to be grinning at her more and more lately. Could he be under the influence of Amortentia? She'll have to ask Astoria about it sometime.
