Aileen

I open my eyes, just to quickly close them again, as the sunlight almost robbed me off my sight.

My head feels like it's been split in two, and I have no idea where I am..., I thought to myself, trying to reach the mind link I shared with Momo without success.

I slowly opened my eyes again, shielding them from the sun's' rays of death, and looked around confused.

''Hospital wing.'' I groaned annoyed.

I remember a girl with gold flecked hazel eyes, telling me to get changed into my robes because we were about to arrive at Hogwarts.

''Cordelia...Cordelia...'' I muttered.
She didn't tell me her surname...

By know half of Hogwarts must know who I am, that girl wouldn't shut up.

I remember glancing at her from the corner of my eye whilst she was mumbling some nonsense, she could be really cute if she learnt when to keep her mouth shut.

Let's just hope that I don't end up in the same house as little-miss-talk-a-lot. I remember having mumbled to Momo, who for some reason seemed really interested in her bracelet.

I went to the bathroom to get changed after that, and started to feel a stabbing sensation where my chain rested upon my chest.
The pain seemed to be growing stronger the closer we got to Hogwarts, then all of a sudden I felt as if someone had pierced my heart with a knife and everything went black.

I wonder how long I've been out for.
And what about the sorting?

''Lets just hope that nobody saw me faint.'' I sighed annoyed and sat up on the bed.

''Should I check if you're under any sort of spell, seeing as you have started talking to yourself Mr. Vauxhall?'' Said a female voice entering the Hospital Wing, carrying a tray with coloured flasks on it.

Well, I had been wondering where the nurse was...

''I've given you a potion since you were somewhat dehydrated, although that doesn't really explain why you fainted all of a sudden..." The nurse said whilst looking intently at me.

"The Headmaster has arranged a separate sorting for you, seeing as you have been unconscious for the sorting and half of today's classes, he did tell me to send you to his office as soon as you wake up- but I wouldn't want to send you away without figuring out what's wrong with you first... I already sent word to the Headmaster that you'll see him once the sleeping potion that I'm giving you now wears off, which should be sometime after dinner.''

I missed the sorting, yesterday's dinner, all of this mornings classes, and this woman is telling me that I won't be taking part in the afternoons classes as well?!
This just keeps getting better and better.

''My grades... Are my grades going to suffer from this?'' I muttered to myself, and downed the potion the nurse had just placed on the bedside table which sent me right back into dream land.

Cordelia

I downed my goblet of pumpkin juice with as much vigor as a depressed drunk.

Eager to escape the rabble of my table, I quickly swallowed my last mouthful of mince pie before moving myself out from the seats. I didn't enjoy luncheon-being in solitude was beneficial when one was in class, but in lunch and interval it was walking into the territory of lions without a herd to back you up.
