Thursday dawns cloudy and gloomy with rain splattering the windows. Bella dresses in khaki pants with a green polo with a silver snake on it. She pulls on black dress shoes. She pulls her hair back into a high ponytail and grabs her bags.

Sky is sitting on a chair reading a book when she walks out. "Morning, Sky," she says as she walks over to the girl.

Sky looks up at her and puts her book away. "Morning, Bella." She stands up and grabs her bag. They walk out of the dormitory. "Morning, boys." Sky and Bella say when they see Thomas and Norville leaning against the wall.

The two push off the wall and walk over to them. "Morning, ladies. Shall we go get breakfast now?" Norville asks, offering his arm to Sky.

She takes it with a laugh. "Yes, we will." Thomas offers his arm to Bella, but she declines to take it. He shrugs and walks behind her as they follow Norville and Sky down to the boards for breakfast.

After getting their food they decide to sit on the grand staircase to eat, hoping their other friends will be able to see them there. They are proven correct when Charlotte, Sarah, and Blaise join them a few minutes later. They talk until the bell rings then they stand and put the trays with the trash cans and head for class.

In potions, Sky and Thomas put a silencing charm around themselves as they read through their books making notes on pieces of notebook paper and bounce ideas off of each other as Snape talks to the rest of the class about Amortentia.

The bell rings and Bella breaks the silencing spell around the twins. They clean up their things, placing the pieces of notebook paper into binders that they then hit a ruin on the side of to change the color of, and follow her out of the classroom. 

"Okay, I keep seeing people with those binders but do they just change colors or subjects to?" Bella asks.

"Subjects too. Each color represents a different subject." Sky says.

"You can also get a matching folder and book cover. The limit is currently four subjects per, and that is perfect for each semester," Thomas adds. "They're sold in Pax alley, in the School Supplies Store."

"Cool, I'll ask Mr. Aaron if he'll take me on Saturday." Bella says as they split up for their classes.

Beginner's Healing flies by again as they ask the visiting pediatric nurse questions about certain pediatric spells. Then comes lunch with Sarah and her hundred questions.

"So, continuing from yesterday, where did you two transfer from?" Sarah asks indicating to Bella Blaise after everyone has settled at one of the cafeteria tables with their food as it was still raining outside.

"We both transferred from Hogwarts," Bella says. "Blaise was a Slytherin while I was a Gryffindor."

“How exactly did that come to be and work? Considering we’ve met people who say that the Hogwarts house rivalries are so intense that those two are practically trying to kill each other daily.” Charlotte asks.

“Um, well, we kinda just met in the library one day when trying to get away from our so called friends. Me because Draco is just way to full of himself.”

“And me because Ron was being his annoying self and Hermoine was going on about how she was smarter than Ron and I combine. We ran into each other and just started talking after that friendship grew into romantic relationship. Hermoine apolagized and we made up, she was just in one of her moods that day, and I had decided to avoid her, until she relaxed again. She even covered for me when I went to meet Blaise. We kept it a secret from everyone else at Hogwarts.” Bella says.

“Well, that must have been hard.” Sarah says. “Now, what do you two like most about Ilvermorny so far?”

Bella looks at her. “Did Catherine put you up to this, since we haven’t stopped by the council room yet?”

Sarah and Charlotte blush. “Yeah.”

The others laugh but continue to answer the questions. “I like the option of flooing or apparating to school rather than just staying in the dorms, as it gives for more family interaction through out the school year rather than just letters and gifts.” Blaise says.

“I like the fact that you can also temporarily stay in the dorms if you need to, but can then go back to flooing to and from school.” Bella says. “I also like what I’ve heard about the astrology class, that it does not take place at midnight but in a magical observatory instead.”

“Now, you can ask us questions,” Charlotte says. “Or we can all just ask each other questions now.”
