Y/n

"Oh, can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take?"

"One of wizards most rudimentary skills is levitation," said professor Flitwick as he stood on a stash of books. "Or the ability to make objects fly! Do you all have your feathers?"

Some people nodded, while the most just lazily put their chin in the palm of their hand, it being the last lesson for most of them.

"Good! Now don't forget the nice wrist movement we've been practicing. The swish and flick. Everybody!"

"The swish and flick!" chorused through the classroom as they all copied the movement.

"Good and er- enunciate: Wingardium Leviosa! Off you go!"

All around the room people were saying Wingardium Leviosa as they tried to make the feather in front of them levitate.

Earlier on in the holiday, Elizabeth had told you about this spell, it wouldn't work if you didn't say the spell in the right way.

'Make the gar and the O nice and clear, than you'll be fine' she had said.

So that was exactly what you were going to do. You rolled up your sleeves, grabbed your wand and prepared yourself to cast the spell.

"Wingardium Leviosa," you spoke, making your wrist movement big and just like that your feather started floating.

Flitwick gasped. "Look here everyone! Ms. Y/l/n has done it! Ten points to Gryffindor!"

You smiled bringing the feather back down. Just the first day and you had already received points for you house.

"How did you do that?" Remus asked you softly, a proud look on his face.

"Just make your wrist movement big and make the gar and O very clear," you told him and he nodded, going back to trying for himself.

"Psst, Y/n!" a voice said from behind you and you turned around to see Lily sitting there with Severus. She didn't say anything else to you, she simply raised her thumbs with a grin and turned back to her feather while Severus had a soft smile on his face, looking into your eyes.

"Wingard Leviosa, Wingard Leviosa, Wingard—" a sudden boom made the whole classroom turn silent and turn towards a young girl. There were ashes on her face, her once neatly combed hair was now unruly and poofy and the eyebrows she once had were now almost completely gone.

The feather she was trying to levitate came flying down a few seconds later, completely burned.

"She might need a new feather, professor," James snorted making Peter do the same.

-

After the lesson, you had about seven hours before you had to go to Astronomy, this gave you enough time for you to talk with your sister.

"So, how was your first day?" she asked you, looking at you with a smile.

"It was good! I earned ten points for Gryffindor."

Elizabeth widened her eyes at you with a smile. "Well done!"

You grinned at her.

"And I heard you already made some friends, hm?"

"Yep! Three. Remus, Lily and Severus. You were right, I really had nothing to worry about."

"I'm always right," your sister said, flipping her shoulder length hair.

You snorted. "Sure you are."

"What?" Elizabeth grinned. "I am."

After you raised an eyebrow at her, her grin got even bigger.
