[ON HOLD] My Love at Hogwarts (Harry Potter x Reader)

Chapter 1: Welcome to Hogwarts

It was Y/n's first year at Hogwarts. "Mum? I'm worried." Y/n looked up at her mother, they were standing on platform 9 ¾. Her leg was shaking and she was biting her lip. Her mother looks down at her with a smile.

"Y/n. You. Are. Amazing. I don't want you to ever think otherwise, and if those people can't see that, they're idiots." She smiles down at her daughter. Her daughter looks gratefully at her mother. She embraces her mother into a long hug. After a minute, Y/n pulls away. "Now go show Hogwarts what an amazing witch you are." Y/n takes a breath and confidently steps onto the Hogwarts Express. She waves to her mother, her mom grins proudly at her as she disappears into the train. Y/n sees students walking through the hall as well as, sitting and laughing in compartments with their friends.

She didn't know anyone on the train, didn't know where to sit either, every seat she passed looked full.

She continues down and stops outside a compartment with two young boys. She slides the door of the compartment open and the two boys look up at her. "Hey, um... can I sit here?" 

Harry had just settled into a conversation with the freckled boy across from him when she slid open the door.

"Yeah." The redhead nods at her smiling. She takes the seat right across from the one who had greeted her.

"Thank you. Hello?" Y/n looks straight at the boy next to her. He seemed to have been staring at her. The boy flushed, quickly snapping out his trance.

"Huh? Oh, um... h-hi." He snaps out of whatever trance he was in.

She laughed at the boy's stuttering, "What are your names?"

"Ronald Weasley. Call me Ron."

"Maybe," she laughed again, then turned to the other, "and you?" 

"I'm Harry. Harry Potter." Her lips parted slightly and gave me a strange look.

"Harry Potter, really?" The boy nodded. "Interesting." She didn't quite act like everybody else when they found out about Harry Potter, but she reacted... somehow.

"And you? What's your name?" Harry asked her.

"Y/n Hawthorne." The three soon-to-be-first-years struck up a conversation as the train rolled out of the station and a trolley full of sweets came by the compartment.

"Anything off the trolley, dears?"

Ron holds up a sandwich, "No, thanks, I'm all set."

"No, thank you." Y/n answers politely.

"I'll take a few." Harry said pulling out a bag of gold. "You two want anything?"

"...I like chocolate frogs..." Ron muttered in awe.

"Three of each, please. Plus some extra frogs."

Placing the candy down on the seat, Harry caught a glimpse of Y/n's face. "Have you gone mad, Potter?" 

"Just take the chocolate."

The three kids sat peacefully on the Hogwarts Express, enjoying the candy when Harry picked up a colorful box. "Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans?" He asked questioningly.

"They mean every flavour!" Y/n says matter-of-factly. "There's chocolate and peppermint, and there's also spinach, liver, and tripe."

"George swore he got a bogey-flavoured one once!" A disgusted look came over Harry, quickly taking the bean he was chewing out of his mouth.

Harry went next to pick up a blue and gold package. "These aren't real chocolate frogs, are they?"

"It's just a spell. Besides, it's the cards you want. Each pack's got a famous witch or wizard. I got about 500 myself." Ron eyes the package. I open the package, and a chocolate frog jumps onto the window and climbs up. "Watch it!" The frog reaches the open gap in the window and jumps out. "Oh, that's rotten luck. They've only got one good jump in them to begin with."
