Ginger Love || James Sirius Potter ||

3. Hogwarts

[James' POV]

"James had the biggest embarrassment of the century," Fred said laughing.

"What happened?" Atlas asked curiously. He truly had taken after his father. The same looks, same personality and even same grades.

"Our Jamsie here is completely, utterly, extremely whipped," Fred said.

"What do you mean?" Lysander who was the Remus/Hermione of the group asked.

"I am in love," James said. Cheers erupted from his friends. Atlas patted his back repeatedly.

"But there's a problem," James said.

"What?" Lorcan asked.

"He introduced himself as Pames Jotter; stumbled over words and turned into a blushing tomato. Do you know what she thought - Pames, ha, I mean, James was socially awkward. I was dying from second hand embarrassment," with that James's friends started laughing.

"That was so embarrassing. What do I do ?" James buried his head in his hands.

"What your Grandpa did," Atlas said, eyes glinting mischievously.

James raised his head from his hands with a blissful smile before turning it into an arrogant smirk.

[Jasmine's POV]

Just after Al's brother left, a platinum blonde boy with a pointed face knocked the compartment door.

"Can I sit here? Everywhere else is full," he asked.

"Sure."

"Scorpious Malfoy. Pureblood," he said, offering her a smile and outstretched his hand to Jasmine. Jasmine shook his hand and said, "Jasmine Edwards. Muggleborn."

Albus and Rose were glaring at him as if daring him to insult her. But his smile didn't falter. He nodded his head and shook hands with Albus and Rose.

"Albus Potter."

"Rose Weasley."

Everyone apart from Jasmine were a little awkward at first but slowly everything was back to normal. Maybe Malfoy wasn't that bad after all.

"Jazzy take your robes we are going to change. You two must change into your robes too," Rose said dragging Jasmine with her.

On their way back to the compartment they met Dominique and Roxanne. Dominique had silvery skin a few freckles spread across her cheeks and nose. Her strawberry blonde hair was long reached upto her middle back. She had already changed into her black robes like all the first years . Unlike Dominique, Roxanne was warm skinned and had very pretty curly hair was a second year, Griffindor . She was wearing her Griffindor robes.

"Hi Rosie! " Dominique said.

"Hi Dom. Rox. Meet my new best friend, Jasmine. Call her Jazz, Jazzy, Izzy," Rosie said hugging Jasmine and giving out a little squeal.

"Hi Jaz. I am Dominique and this is Roxanne. We are Rosie's cousin you can call us Dom or Rox."

"Ro said a lot about you two."

"Do you want to join us in our compartments?" Roxanne asked.

"We would love to besides the boys will be talking about nonsensical things anyways," Rose said.

(In Dom's and Rox's compartment )

"What house do you want to be in Jaz?"

"Griffindor seems nice. Ravenclaw is not too bad either."

"I want to be a Griffindor just like Mum and Dad."

"You and me both Rosie. You and me," Dom said.

"Jaz. Why are you so quiet ? Are you always so quiet?" Rox asked.

"Oh no. I am just overwhelmed with all his magic. I can't believe that I am going to a magic school. I may be quiet for maybe a day but I start getting used to it I think I'll survive. When I am turned on, I am like a firecracker; short-tempered, fiery ,witty and sarcastic. That's what my parents tell me at least," Jaz said.

"This is the longest sentence I have heard you say 'til now."

Jasmine just smiled and rubbed her neck, blushing.

"We will arrive at Hogwarts in 15 minutes."
