5- Hogwarts Express

Once we walked onto the train, we started looking for a compartment to sit in. Because we were one of the last people to get on the train, there was hardly any spaces left. But luckily, we found one towards the back which was empty.

We sat down and she broke the silence.

"So I didn't catch your name."she asked,looking straight into my eyes,sitting opposite me.

"Oh ye, I'm y/n Callisto." I said shyly.

"Wait really, like... the y/n Callisto?!"Now she was on the edge of her seat.

"Yeah, I guess. I didn't even know I was a witch until yesterday."I gulped. I didn't really want to be talking about this right now, but I guess I've got to get used to it.

"Ye, your known as the 'secret witch'. I always wondered why your parents never told you until now. Oh, and my names Amia Broadmoor. Amia is the french name for dearly loved." She talks a lot. I guess this train ride is going to be interesting.

"I found that out yesterday. It's a very long story though so I'd rather not explain it." I commented with a laugh.

"That's fine, what does your name mean then?" She questioned.

"Actually, I'm not quite sure. I don't think it has a meaning."

"I'm sure it does. You'll find out one day." She said looking out the window.

I didn't even realise the train was moving until I looked at what Amia was admiring.

The view was beautiful; almost like a fairytale. The sky was blue and there was thousands of trees. There was different kind of birds flying everywhere . It really was amazing.

"The view is amazing" Amia said after a few minuets of silence. Can she read my mind or something?

"I know, it really is." I said, not taking my eyes off the view.

"I'm just going to put on my robes, I'll be right back." I said standing up and grabbing my clothes. I headed towards the compartment door.

"Ok, I'll go after you then." She said. After that I opened the sliding door and walked out, closing it behind me.

I started to walk down the train, towards the middle of it, because that's were the toilets were. I looked around and saw everyone in different compartments, laughing with there friends. It's gonna be hard to make friends this year as everyone already has their friend group. I will just have to look confident and stunning, and hopefully with my luck, someone will want to be friends with me.

I have Amia, but she only seemed like she wanted to be my friend once I told her my name. I didn't like that. I hope people don't use me, just because I'm 'popular'. I didn't even have a choice. I just got told I'm a witch, and now I'm heading to a school of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Once I got to the toilets, the girls room was locked, so I had to wait. I didn't have to long though because a girl, about the same hight as me, walked out. She has brown hair which was parted to the side, and she had a kind of pug-like face? I don't really know how to explain it. She wasn't the prettiest of all people.

When she came out, she was leaning on the door, which meant I couldn't go in.

"Um, excuse me, I need to go in there." I said confidently.

"Well I'm waiting for my friend to come out of there so you have to wait as well." She said pointing to the boys toilets.

"Bitch." I whispered under my breath, leaning against the wall with my eyes glued to the floor.

"What did you just say?" She said with a bitchy tone. Clearly she didn't like what I said and that was my intention.

"Oh nothing." I said smiling.

"You called me a bit-" She was cut off by a tall, brown-skin boy walking out of the toilets. He had his clothes he changed out of in his hands.

"C'mon" he said.

"Well this girl just decided to call me-."I cut her off.

"I just wanted to go to the toilet but she's being a bitch and not letting me in." I said looking at him.

"Pansy, just let her go." He said looking at her. She rolled her eyes but didn't budge. "Are you new? I haven't seen you around before." He asked me.

"Ye, can I change now please." I asked while I crossed my arms in front of my chest.

The boy grabbed Pansy by the arm and walked away. At least someone is nice to me. I rolled my eyes and opened the door to the toilets and went in.

"So I don't know the boys name but he seemed nice."I just explained everything that happened, to Amia, because she was wondering why I took so long.

The lady with the trolly of food stopped outside of our compartment.

"Do you girls want anything." She said kindly with a big smile.

"Can I have a chocolate frog please?" I asked and she handed me one. I payed with the galleons Hagrid gave me.

Amia bought what she wanted and then the lady walked away.

"Even the sweets and chocolate are magic." I said.

She nodded. "I forgot to tell you, I transferred from Beauxbatons."

"Why are you going to Hogwarts then?" I asked.

" My parents got a new job and my old school was too far away." She looked down at her lap.

"Oh, I'm sorry." She didn't look too happy about transferring.

"It's fine." She replied, smiling at me.

"What year are you going into?" She suddenly asked me. I think she wants to be in the same year as me so we can be friends.

"Three, you?"I replied.

"Nooo, I'm going into year four." She said frowning. I guess that's why she's so tall then. I just thought it was because of her dad.

"We can still be friends though. Like, you can help me with my homework, and help me study for tests. And in our free time we can meet." I was smiling to try and lighten the mood.

"I guess so, unless we are in rivalry houses. Then it wouldn't look too good would it.I wonder what house we will be sorted into" she said.

"Houses? What do you mean?" I asked furrowing my brows.

"Well there are four houses. When you arrive there, a sorting hat gets put on your head and it either shouts, Slytherin, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw. Then you are in that house. You earn points for your house and at the end of the year, the one with most points wins. I'm sure the headmaster will explain it a bit more when we get there." She explained.

"Oh, ok" I said. I don't really know house I want to be in, because I don't know what each house stands for. I guess I will find out in the next few hours.

I don't really know about this chapter. It's kind of a filler I guess. Hoped you like it though. <3
