Our Dream - A Hogwarts Story - DISCONTINUED

3rd Year - Chapter 34

When all of us got onto the train we all split off as usual to have one last catch up with our friends before the Christmas holiday. As usual I sat with Bekki and Ginny. Ginny had actually invited that little Ravenclaw girl Luna to sit with us. She was an odd character but I suppose that’s what made me like her more. She talked about all these different things and they were all really interesting, it turns out she lives over the hill next to the burrow with her father. She seemed very appreciative for the company and we assured her she just needs to ask if she wants to sit, or just sit and join into the conversation.

Hermione, Ron and Harry sat together as usual but Hermione did come in and see us before we arrived at king cross station. She can’t actually come over to mine anymore because her parents are taking her to visit some family and she won’t be back until after Christmas so it’s only Bekki coming over on Boxing Day.
The twins sat with their older friends and at one point we seen them run past our compartment and then a couple seconds later some older Slytherin’s ran past covered in pink powder. Doesn’t take a genius to figure out they had to do one last prank before they left for a couple weeks. The four of us girls watched the scene and burst out laughing.

Both my brothers sat together with Cedric since he wasn’t coming over till Boxing Day either. I said goodbye to him at Hogwarts because I knew he was closer with my brothers and I thought it wold be nice to give them that time rather than have me tagging along.

When we got to the stations we all gathered round in a big group saying our last goodbyes before Mrs Weasley came and found us. Because we were a big group there wasn’t enough space in a car so we decided to floo into the house. When we got there the house was empty of decorations as always. We always did it as a family and it was one of the funniest things during the holidays. It usually ended up with a mismatch tree and tinsel round all the banisters and anywhere you looked but it always had a cosy feeling to it.

We all walked into the kitchen to see my dad and Mr Weasley standing talking over a cup of tea. After we all greeted each other it was time to discuss the sleeping arrangements.

“Right Davina take it away” my father said dramatically gesturing his hands to me. I laughed at him as well as everyone else. My dad was a special kind but it was great, he always made everything more fun.

“Okay so sleeping arrangements. Mitchel, Alec and Connor will sleep Mitchel’s room and Cedric will join you when he gets here. Weasley boys and my main man Hazza” I said shooting the boy a wink he just shook his head and laughed with the others “they will be in Connor’s room. Me and Ginny will be in mine and Bekki will join when she gets here too. Mr and Mrs Weasley will be in Alec’s room and dad will be in his obviously.” I took a deep breath and smiled at them all “have I forgotten anyone?”

There was a chorus of “no’s” before I got my trunk and turned around “follow me” I said and showed them all to their rooms so they could get settled in. I brought Ginny to my room and started to unpack my trunk. I walked around putting my things away but noticed Ginny was just staring around my room.
“Is everything okay youngin?” I asked her putting my things down and walking over to her.

She looked over to me and had a big smile on her face “your room is so cool” was all she said before she walked around and looked at all the different things.

I suppose I was fortunate to have a big room to myself. I had gotten a king bed when we moved back home. My dad thought it would be better rather than sizing up every now and then. On it I had my cosy, fluffy duvet set and scattered around the head rest was my wide range of throw pillows. Thrown on my bed was blankets that I never put away before I left for at summer.

My room had a theme to it, I decided to keep it neutral with black, white and grey but it still had a girls touch. I had lights going around my headrest and wrapped round them were some vines. My room was upstairs and looked onto a forest and I wanted to incorporate that into my room so I had a fair few plants here and there. In one corner was my bookshelf with my large supply of books and a few ornaments that I’m sure Hermione would love. If she was here I don’t think she would leave the little corner I set up with more pillows and throws.
In another corner, which was my favourite by far. I had my record player set up with its speakers. I had gotten just after we came back from America. It was set up in the living room of our old home but it was only me that used it so my dad said I could keep it in my room. I had a vast collection of records in the shelves below it ranging from AC/DC to queen to a few ABBA records. They were all my dad’s and his friends but I didn’t mind because they grew to be my favourite. One of my favourite things was the wall above my record player, my dad had set it up for me. It’s got a copy of all the records I have on the wall.
When I got home for Christmas in 1st year and seen he had done it I loved it but it was missing something so I added band posters, Quidditch team posters and photos up on it.
