(Hey guys! So before we get into this chapter~I just wanted to tell you guys the playlist name for this wattpad is "Neville and I Music to Accompany". This chapter's song issss.....Rachel Platten's Fight Song! Tune in :} and thanks for all the lovely DMs and support <3)
Like I said, none of it could be all that important could it? I mean, everything was going pretty standardly, Sorting, Hat song, then "words of wisdom" from Dumbledore himself.
Speaking of Dumbledore, he was still talking about some sort of banned items and spell policies. Boring much?
I was hoping we would get to eat soon, when Dumbledore said, "Dig in!". He raised his arms in a gentle, yet commanding gesture. May I tell you I had never heard words so perfect as those. I was very hungry due to the long train ride after all!
Food started springing up onto the tables. turkey, chicken, any appetizing things I could think of! I watched my fellow Gryffindors serve themselves when I decided that piling up my plate wouldn't be a problem. I knew, as long as I did what others did, that I would fit in here, at Hogwarts.
"So, you happy with accommodations so far?", I heard a voice ask me from behind my shoulder. I turned and my whole body gave a start! There was a pearly white, semi translucent figure speaking to me! I had heard of ghosts before, but never had I seen one in the flesh. This one had an air of importance around it, so I addressed it accordingly,
"Ah, yes I am enjoying this so far." , I said with a flourish of my hands to match his aristocratic gestures. He nodded and glided off with a straightening of his ruffled-neck.
"So you've met Nearly Headless Nick?", someone said. For the love of Merlin, when were people going to stop speaking to me randomly? I turned, my jaw set impatiently, and saw a gangly-looking redheaded youth. A Weasley,for sure, but which one was the question?
He began to tell me things about the ghost I had just met, let me tell you with all honesty that I droned him out, I was not going to listen to any going-ons as I tried to get some bites of food in. As the Weasley-person continued lecturing me about the history of that Nick-guy, I took a chance to look around my table.
It still felt so surreal, after dreaming of this place, this beautiful place, to finally be here. And amongst such amazing people as well. I knew, ever since I lived with my mother and father, that Hogwarts was a possibility. But I never really processed that it would one day be a reality.
I scanned everyone's face, there was Neville, the Weasley-person, Harry Potter, and his little Weasley-person comrade! Oh, and let me not forget Lavender and her little friend....some Patil, (can't remember which one).
I didn't care if it would take work to fit in here, I was going to fight. If it was difficult for Y/N Brown to do ANYTHING, SHE WAS GOING TO FIGHT. This may be the beginning of a dream, but I am going to show everyone what I can accomplish. Hogwarts better watch out, Y/N Brown is here, ready to show what she can do!
