eight girls (Hogwarts life) ( short stories )

Ellie Kate Back , second year

2nd year

Ellen and I out in the freezing rain waiting for the bus . Which is now 15 minutes late , just great. The ice water is slowly seeping its way through my drenched coat and my shoes are hosting a pool party for my toes. And I am pretty sure all my things in my bag and suitcase are having a nice surprise wash as well. finally the bus pulls up with the lights on and fogged up windows by all the people on the bus.
on the bus there are no spare seats so we had to say stood up with all our bags and suitcase all dripping wet.
when we got to the plat form the rain has eased up. This year Tiffany didn't take the bus because of the weather and that it was late so her mum drove her. Ellen went to find her friends once I found Tiffany. we sat in a compartment by ourselves again.
time went fast as we kept talking and catching up after the summer holiday.
soon the train comes to a stop. my second year at Hogwarts begins. all the first years pile off heading towards the boats me and Tiffany take a walk to Hogwarts with our backpacks and suitcases in hand.
once all first years are sorted and the feast has been eaten our house gets called third to go to the common room.
going down the corridors me and Tiffany notice quite a lot of first years following us ,all of them being in our house.
Tiffany turns around and says "shouldn't the house prefect be showing you around ?" then turns to look at me for my input.
but before I can make one a boy said " we lost her , a teacher needed her."
me and Tiffany stared at each other than looked around for someone in an older year in our house but non are in sight.
"well you can follow us if you want?" I spoke out .
and so me and Tiffany gave the first years a tour of the common room where it is, how to get in and where their rooms are . we also gave them a small tour of Hogwarts and where the main classrooms are.
soon the time went and it was lights out. on the way back we bumped into some older Gryffindor boys , my eyes would not let one of the boys leave from my line of sight. I am just frozen in place , staring gormusly at this boy.
" sorry we just need to be through there." I spoke as Tiffany linked her arm in mine. we stood waiting for a response and for them to move to clear the path. they wrapped up their conversation laughed and parted , so me and Tiffany had to go one by one through the little path way they have created , boys at either side of us. ( very intimidating if you ask me , but that's probably their goal .)
once out of the boy made wall path , me and Tiffany hurry to the common room as we hear more laughter from be hind us , off the boys. in the dorm room I collapsed on my bed and Tiffany huffed off with her towel to get washed and ready for bed.
lying on my bed a small contempt smile spread across my lips and I felt at peace , feeling that something will go right this year and that it will be better than last year , and letting out a heavy sigh I stretched my body and rolled over to my right side hugging Albert close and closed my eyes.
soon it was time for Christmas , I helped with the decorations before packing to go home. me , Ellen and Tiffany waited together for the bus after we got off the train . while waiting a lot of commotion was going on , Ellen is in the toilet and Tiffany went to go get a drink so I was stood with all the bags and suitcases as to the left of me something is going down . I get on my tip toes to get a better look to whats going on but no luck. I huffed and returned my attention to look out for the bus and for Ellen and Tiffany . when something in the corner of my eye catches my attention , a furry blue like creature with I think a duck like beak , is leaving a trail of glitter on the floor of the , old and run down, bus station. curiosity got the better of me and I looked around but it seems no one else has seen the creature yet and non looked that they are interested to steel the bags , but still I kept them in eyes view as I slowly walked towards the mysterious creature. once close it saw me and backed up in the corner then it pounced on me I panicked and a shriek left my lips. I reached to pick it off me , its fur being the softest thing I have ever felt . I soon raised it was clinging onto my silver love heart Dimond necklace that my mum got me. I got it to let go and walked back to the bags just as both Ellen and Tiffany was walking back , I quickly and gently put the creature in my backpack , zipping the zip closed leaving a little head space at the top so it could breath . through the gap I looked at it staring at me and I put my finger up to my lips signalling to be quiet. I have no idea if it understands me but it just curled up and closed its eyes and I let out a little sigh. just as Ellen and Tiffany reached me and got sorted the bus arrived.
at home I went straight to my room and looked in my bag to see it still sleeping I picked it out the bag and placed it on the bed making it stir and open its eyes slowly .
"well I don't know what you are but you seem not that dangerous , but defiantly magical"
"I will have to do some research." I whispered to it as I stroked it.
the creature nuzzled into my hand , yawned and stretched its small body. loving the attention and special treatment and affection I am giving it , very pampered.
once the Christmas holidays where over, I had my bags and suitcase in hand as Tizzy (what I named to mysterious creature ) looking up at me from my bed with big pleading eyes. I sigh walk over to Tizzy and giver Tizzy a nice stroke ."goodbye see you soon , yeah? remember be good and stay okay?" I point at Tizzy and all Tizzy does is round around on my bed , I smile and pick up my bags and get back to Hogwarts.
when back and unpacking my bag Tizzy's beak popped out , making me scream and jump back.
so my second year was better then the first as I have made a new friend Tizzy but because nifflers aren't an option for a pet at Hogwarts I have to keep Tizzy a secret. also I read 'fantastic beasts and where to fined them ' from the library to find out what Tizzy is.
