Novel Bin Chapter 30: Ronald Weasley
Chapter 30: Ronald Weasley
When September 1 came around Nick and Harry were driven up to the train station by miss smith and dropped off , though not before Nick left her his gift. "So where is platform nine and three quarters?" Harry asked in confusion after not seeing any sign listed as such. Nick shrugged "maybe it's magically hidden between platforms nine and ten?" he said calmly and Harry nodded in agreement. "How are we supposed to find it then?" he asked worriedly. Nick smiled "do you see anyone else that stands out by platform nine or ten?" he asked giving Harry a hand.-
The bespectacled boy looked carefully and quickly noticed that there was indeed a few people who stood out and much to his amazement he even watched as a family of three walked through what appeared to be a solid wall. He looked at Nick to see if he noticed this as well and Nick nodded "I'd guess that's where we need to go." he said seriously. Nick would be lying if he said he wasn't nervous when he ran into the wall with the luggage cart. Nothing odd happened and he smoothly found himself on platform nine and three quarters with Harry and the other students.-
He had made sure that Harry covered his scar before they left the orphanage and for good reason too as the platform was crawling with reporters hoping to catch the boy who lived as he boarded the train. Nick had of course mentioned this to Harry before they left much to the boys horror as he suddenly found out that he was basically considered wizarding Jesus. None of the reports seemed to notice it when Harry slipped past them with Nick thanks to him hiding behind Hedwig's cage as they boarded the train.-
As a result unlike in the book there was still plenty of rooms empty in the train that they could set up in. Nick chose a room at the back of the train that was seriously out of the way to see if the events of the story would still happen despite his intervention. Low and behold one nervous redhead with freckles peaked his head in the doorway just before before the train set off. Nick noticed that the boy in question immediately locked onto Harry's forehead , or more specifically his scar before he asked if he could sit in with them.-
Nick acted like he didn't care so Harry agreed and let Hedwig out of her cage so he could store it overhead to make room. The bird calmly settled on the seat next to Nick once she got a nod from him and stared at Ron. The red headed boy held out his hand to Nick after noticing he seemed to have the most authority in the room. "I'm Ron Weasley." he introduced himself casually. Nick shook the boys hand firmly but not hard "Nicholas Iron and you already know my friend next to you." he said with a knowing smirk.- Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.𝘤𝑜𝓂 for the best novel reading experience
Harry looked confused for a moment before he realized that his identity had already been seen through by Ron and sighed. "erm , yeah that's Harry potter isn't it?" Ron asked sheepishly for confirmation. "I am yes and no i don't remember anything about that night." Harry said basically cutting off any awkward questions immediately. Nick had told him that should he be exposed that saying that would save him a lot of time. It was true too as Ron looked like a goldfish for a moment opening and closing his mouth trying to think of something to say but he had nothing.-
"Chill mate , just treat him like anyone else and you'll be fine." Nick said helpfully letting Ron sigh in relief. "I thought you'd be I don't know awesome looking , I guess?" Ron says honestly to Harry who looked confused. "Why?" he asked curiously. "Propaganda mostly" Nick said calmly and Ron thought about it for a minute but nodded in agreement. "Yeah they made all sorts of stories about how you were raised by dragons and went on loads of adventures and stuff like that , thought most of it was malarkey but didn't know really , no one does." Ron said honestly.-
Harry groaned "You never said it was this bad Nick!" he complained loudly making Ron look confused. Nick noticed this and chuckled before explaining how he had warned Harry about his fame but he didn't believe him all the way. "How did you know , weren't you raised by muggles? After all there is no pureblood family called Iron?" Ron asked confused. "Flourish and blots has an entire section filled with stories about Harry here , I saw it when we went to get our school supplies." Nick said honestly without actually answering the question , merely stating facts that sound like an answer.
