Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters. I do own, however, Mackenzie, Michaela, little Lily, little James, and any other different characters mentioned in the story. I do wish I owned Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliff, however he is his own person. But I do want to thank JKR for her brilliant mind in making the Harry Potter books and characters. I bow to her.

Prologue

"Knight to E5." Ron smirked at his win against Harry. "Told ya you'd never beat me, mate."

"Yeah. I know, Ron. I can try though. Hey, 'Mione."

"Hey, Harry. Hey, Ron."

"Hey, babe. Where have you been today?"

"In my dormitory, thinking. Ron, can I talk to you?"

"Sure." Ron followed Hermione out the portrait hold. They walked out to the lake and sat under their tree. Ron reached for Hermione's hand, but she pulled away. "What is it, love?"

"Ron, you are my best friend and the best boyfriend a girl could ask for. I don't really know how to say this. Ron, this isn't working out."

"Hermione, are you breaking up with me?"

"Yes, but I still want us to be friends."

"Me too, 'Mione. I've noticed for the longest time that you've been distant towards me. I have a confession. I overheard you and Ginny a couple of months ago. I know that you never loved me. I also know that you love Harry. I have another confession. I did love you at one point, but in the past month I realized I fell out of love with you."

"Wow, Ron. I-I don't know what to say. I am so sorry." Hermione gave Ron a hug. "Can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"What should I do about Harry?"

"Talk to him. Tell him how you feel."

"Ron, you are the best friend I have ever had. No hard feelings?"

"No hard feelings." Ron hugged Hermione. They turned and walked back to the school.

"I'll talk to Harry tomorrow first thing."

Later that night, Harry couldn't sleep. He sat on the windowsill looking out at the grounds. All he could think about was Hermione. If she wasn't his best friend or Ron's girlfriend-. He let that thought trial off. She WAS beautiful. 'No, Harry. This is Hermione. We've been friends since we were eleven. We've been through hell and back together.' Something caught Harry's eye. He looked up and saw a shooting star.

"I wish, for one day, I could be a normal kid."

Harry then went to bed. Little did he know that a fairie named Emerald close by heard what he said.

"Sleep tight, Harry Potter. Your wish will be granted."

"Harry! Get your butt out of bed." Lily Potter called to her oldest child. "Lazy bum. Reminds me of you when you were his age."

James Potter smiled at his wife. "Hey! I was an angel when I was seventeen."

"Sure you were. If you were an angel I will kiss Remus, Sirius, and Peter all on the lips. Where is he? Harold James Potter! Get down here now!"

Harry woke up in a room he didn't recognize. He looked around and saw it was his room, but it wasn't at the same time. A picture on the desk showed him with six other people. Five of the people he recognized. Two were his parents, Lily and James. The other three he immediately knew who they were. One was Remus Lupin. One was his godfather Sirius Black. The other was Wormtail, aka Peter Pettigrew. The other person was a young girl of about eleven. She looked identical to Lily. In the picture, Harry looked about fifteen. Harry realized that his wish came true. By the looks of the picture (meaning that they weren't moving), he was a Muggle. The young girl in the picture must be his little sister.

He heard someone call him from downstairs. Harry hurriedly got dressed and went downstairs. As he arrived in the kitchen, he saw for the first time, in his life, his mum and dad.

Lily turned as Harry walked into the kitchen. "About time. Were you planning on sleeping all day, Harry?"

"Mum!" Harry didn't realize he had said it aloud until Lily looked at him.

"What?"

"N-Nothing. I just can't believe you're actually here." Harry ran over and gave Lily a hug.

Lily looked at her son. "Are you okay, Harry? Are you feeling good?"

"Yeah, Mum. I'm fine. I just had a weird dream last night."

"Do me a favor, Harry. Go wake Mackenzie."

"Sure." Harry went upstairs to look for his little sister's room. When he found it, he found a girl who looked like a miniature Lily.

"M-Mackenzie?" The girl in the bed stirred but didn't wake. Harry called her louder. This time she woke up.

"What, Harry?"

"Mum said to get up."

"Oh, all right. All she does is complain anyway."

"I think she's wonderful. You should be nicer to her."

"You say the same thing, too. Are you all right, Harry?"

"Yes. I'm fine."

"Harry! Mackenzie! Breakfast is ready."

"Tell Mum I'll be down in a second. Mackenzie got up and got her clothes.

"Okay." Harry went back downstairs.

"What are we doing today, Mum?" Harry asked when Mackenzie joined them.

"Nothing, Harry. Why?"

"I think we should spend the whole day together."

"That sounds like a good idea. What do you think, James? Mackenzie?"

James agreed. Mackenzie did too, though reluctantly and with a look of pure disgust. The Potter's all ate and got ready to leave. Harry had to run up to his room real quick. When he got there, he found a little fairie flying around.
