 The day has come for us to go to Hogwarts. Mrs. Weasly takes us to the train station. A young boy, who looks the same age as Ron and I, comes over to us and asks what to do. The twins run at the wall between platforms 9 and 10. To get to platform 9 ¾. "(Y/N), you're next." Mrs. Weasly says. "Ok." I say. I run into the wall and when I get to platform 9 ¾ I fall over my stuff. "You alright, love?" George says helping me up. "Y-yeah." I say blushing. Everyone else comes through and Mrs. Weasly sees us off on the train. Ron and I look for somewhere to sit but almost everywhere is full. We find a compartment and ask to sit there. It was the boy from the platform. "You're Harry Potter?!" Ron says to the bespectacled boy. We talk for a little while till the train stops at Hogwarts. We all get off the train and first years have to go one way while the others go another. We stand in the great hall for the sorting ceremony. "(L/N), (Y/N)." Professor McGonagall says and I go up. I sit on the chair as she puts the Sorting Hat on my head. "HMMM, smart young lady, very brave also. Kind heart, and cunning." The Hat says in my ear. "Got to be... GRYFFINDOR!!!" The Hat shouts. The Gryffindor table shouts in joy as I walk over to it. Fred and George move so I can sit in between them, I sit between them getting strange looks from Percy. The twins both put an arm around my shoulders, making me turn red again. We can now eat and, man, the food is good. Don't get me wrong, my dad is a good cook, but this food is delicious. The twins laugh as I stuff my face with the amazing meal. "What, I forgot lunch." I say with a laugh. The twins are dying laughing now. "(Y/N), I think the 3 of us will be good friends." George says. We all finish eating and now we have to go to Gryffindor common room so we can go to bed. I marvel at the sheer size of the castle as we walk. We got to the house common room and the girls went one way while the boys went another. We all change into pajamas and go to bed, we start classes tomorrow.

We all walk to breakfast, and like last night the twins moved so I can sit in between them. I feel my blush creep onto my face and I try and hide it. "Aw (Y/N), love, don't hide that beautiful face of yours." George says cupping my cheek in his large hand. This makes my face turn a deep shade of scarlet. I secretly like him the best out of the twins. "Yeah, (Y/N), don't hide." Fred says from behind me. I quickly go back to eating my breakfast, trying to get away from the twins. I walk with Ron to charms class, our first class, and he notuses the blush on my face. "What's with you?" Ron asks. "Nothing!" I say quickly. "It's Fred and George, isn't it?" He asks. "Y-yes. But please don't tell anyone!" I say. "Bloody hell!!! You like my older brothers?!?!" Ron says a little too loud. "Yes but you have got to keep it quiet." I say covering his mouth. We get to class and I sit next to him and a girl named Hermione. Ron is having trouble with the spell, I get it almost instantly, and Hermione is correcting Ron. "It's Whingardiom LeviOsa not leviosA." She says to Ron. "It's ok Ron, just practis." I say as we leave class. We go to potions class next, apparently Professor Snape was my mums brother, and I sit in the front of the room. As I am reading in my study book Professor Snape comes over to me. "So you're my sister, Sarra's, daughter?" He says in his creepy, monotone, voice. "Y-yes sir." I say looking up at my uncle. "Well, do not expect special treatment in this class." He says. "Oh, no sir, I would never." I say quickly. "Good. Now get back to work." He says walking away. I get back to my work till it is time to go to lunch. I sit in between the twins again. "So, what was that with Proffesor Snape?" Harry asks me. "Oh, he was my mums older brother." I say making Fred and George spit their drinks. "What?!?!" George says coughing. "Yeah. What?!" Fred says coughing also. "Yeah, he is my uncle, although, I never really met him until now." I say. "Well, we'll have to watch our backs." George says, putting his arm around me. My face once again turned red and I felt so weird. 'Does he feel it too? Is he just teasing me? Does he know I like him?' I think turning a deeper red. "You know, George, I think she likes you." Fred says to his twin. I'm redder than their hair now, and stammering like a stupid idiot. "I'd have to agree with Fred. What do you think Ron?" George laughs. "I think so." Ron winks. I give him a silent thanks for keeping my secret. We are told that we have to go to our next class and I am so relieved. I rush to my next class and go from class to class until dinner. At dinner I sit in between the boys again and try not to spill my guts. We go back to Gryffindor common room and I rush to the girls dormitory. I pull out a piece of paper and a quill. I start to spill my feelings onto the paper.

My dearest, George. Te he, a little Hamilton reference. With a comma after dearest.

Since the first moment I laid eyes on you I have felt something different. I do not know how to express this, but I love you. I know this is not a very conventional way to express my love for you, my dear George, but I do not have the courage to tell you face to face. I do hope you return my feelings, but if you do not I understand.

Yours always, (Y/N) (L/N).

I fold up the sheet of paper and put it in my pocket. The other girls come into the dormitory for bed. I change into my pajamas and go to sleep.

We walk to the great hall for breakfast and I walk over to George. I fish the letter out of my pocket and hand it to him. "What's this?" He asks. "Just open it." I say blushing. He opens the letter and reads it silently. Then suddenly he engulfs me in a hug. "S-so you aren't mad or anything?" I stammer. "Absolutely not." He says smiling. "What's goin' on over here?" Fred says. "Oh...um. Nothing." I say. George hands him the letter, which is responded by Fred laughing his head off. We start to eat our breakfast and George lays his arm on my shoulder, per usual, and I, surprisingly, didn't turn red this time. "(Y/N), what is going on?" Harmione asks. "N-nothing!" I say. After a little while the post owls come and drop things to almost everyone. A letter drops onto my lap and it has my name on it. I pick up the letter and open it. It looks very important. It says:

Ms. (L/N),

We, at the Ministry Of Magic, regret to inform you that your father, Michal (L/N), has passed. His body was found on 2 September. It was reported to us by the muggle authorities. We are very sorry for your loss. Arrangements for your housing have been made, you will stay with your only living relative, Professor Severis Snape, until further notice. We again apologize for the inconvenience.

The Ministry Of Magic.

I feel hot tears rolling down my face as I look up from the letter. I look over to the Professors table and see Professor Snape looking at me with a hint of regret. "(Y/N), dear, what's wrong?" Fred and George ask. I show them the letter and the immediately hug me tightly. "Oh (Y/N), we're so sorry." They say. They let go because we have to get to class. I manage to get through charms without crying, but I think potions will be a different story. We get to the potions classroom and I quickly make my way to my seat. Draco Malfoy has to sit next to me and scoffs, he thinks he is better than everyone else becuase he is rich. "(L/N), I hope you won't make a mess, like Weasly did." He says in his mean little ferret voice. "Well, Draco, I think Ron is a good person and you should just go choke on a rock!" I say back. "My father will hear about this!" He says. "Well, at least you have a father still, because until two hours ago, I thought I still did!" I say almost shouting. "Well, at least I'm a pureblood. Unlike you! A stupid little half-blood!" He says loudly. "Is there an issue?" Proffessor Snape asks standing over us. "N-no sir. I was just explaining to Draco here that; just because I am not a pureblood, doesn't mean I am any less capable as him." I say. "Good, now pay atention." Snape says resuming his lesson. We are dismissed for lunch but Snape holds me back for a minute. "I got a letter, about your father, I'm deeply sorry." He says. "I did too, and I'm sorry for how I burst out at Draco during your lesson. But before you say anything, he started it." I say. "Good, not get to lunch." He says dissmissing me. I walk out of the room to see the twins waiting for me. "We thought you could use a friend or two to walk with." George says with a sad smile. These two can make anything into a joke. "Thank you boys." I say walking with them. As we walk Draco comes up to us. "Walking with your boyfriends, are we (L/N)? Or did they get suckered into a trap and you're gonna kill them when you get the chance?" Draco says cruelty. "No, we're just her friends, unless she wants to be more." George says with a wink. We continue to walk and Draco keeps messing with us so we flip him off at the same time, without planning it, and walk to the Gryffindor table. "What did you mean 'Unless I wanted to be more'?" I asked George. "Well, would you like to be my girlfriend?" He asks shyly. "I know it's an inappropriate time, with your father and all, but I care about you, I want to be with you. You're one of my best friends, and we have only known each other for a few months, but I would do anything for you." He says quickly. I quickly hug him tightly. "Of course I'll be your girlfriend." I say quietly. He hugs me back just as tight. "Well I'll be damned. That escalated quickly." Fred laughs. I just smile at the boys and chuckle. "What'd I miss?" Ron asks, staring at me with the twins. "Oh, nothing much." I say, Ron knows about what happened with my father and has been worried about me all day. We eat lunch and continue on with our classes. My mood has lightened a little and everything goes normal. We go back to the common room and head up to bed.
