Chapter One: Summer

"Miss Reid and Miss Walters, here are your time tables." the nice office lady said, handing the girl next to me a timetable, doing the same for me. "Of course, you're both in G&T, so these time tables would be useless."

"Why?" I asked curiously.

"Your guide should answer that. Ah, here he is. Mr. Watson." the lady said as the door opened behind us. Both Gabi and I turned around in time to see an ash blonde boy step into thee office, wearing the school uniform. As a habit, I quickly deduced what I could about him- like how he was right handed, had a alcoholic sibling, and a military father he was worried about. Then I realized that it really was none of my business and I stopped.

"Um, hi. My name is John Watson, and I'm your tour guide." the boy said.

Okay, si it's his first time being a tour guide. Must be a newer student then.

Shut up, brain.

Old habits die hard. Really, really hard. 
I mentally sighed. John blabbed on about the rules and school uniform. I pretty much paid attention to one detail.

"What do you mean, mandatory high heels?!" I protested.

Meanwhile, Gabi protested a different matter- "We have to wear skirts?!"

We both looked at each other.

"Whats wrong with skirts?" I asked, insulted a little.

"Why don't you like high heels?" she said at the same time, looking offended.

"You can't walk in them!" we both answered in unison, miffed. There was an awkward Silence, which was broken only by the faint gun shot in the distance.

"What was that?" I asked.

"Oh, the hunters." the office lady said casually. "They won't get too close to the school grounds."

John cleared his throat. Both Gabi's and mine attention went back to him. He shrugged apologetically.

"Girls have to wear high heels and skirts." John said. "It's just one on the rules."

I sighed, but accepted it.

"Class will be starting soon, John." the office lady reminded gently. John's eyes widened.

"Right. You two should probably visit Miss Malkin, so she can get you your uniform." John said. "Then I'll show you to your dorm."

I nodded, taking the handle of my suitcase.

"Leave it, dear. I'll just have Mr. Filch take it to your rooms." the office lady said. I nodded again. I had a feeling that I would be nodding a lot today. Gabi and I followed John to what looked like a gift shop filled with clothes.

Once Miss Malkin showed up, I again deduced what I could from her, like her happy 7 year marriage. I shook my head slightly to clear my thoughts.

 Miss Malkin took some measurements while John looked for new shoes. Then she handed us some clothed, and then handed me some wedges. I let out a small sigh of relief. Not high heels. I then went to go get changed.

A few minutes later, I walked out wearing the black skirt, the white shirt, the black blazer and the red and yellow tie, wobbling slightly on the black wedges. My balance is usually pretty good, but put me in high heels or wedges, then se how long it'll take to put me in the hospital.

I quickly righted myself when Gabi strutted in wearing stilletos so high they gave me vertigo.

"How do you walk in those things?!" I gasped as she pretended she was a model. She gave me a playfull smirk.
