My name is Gianna Blackwood, fifteen-years-old. I have two parents who love me and a golden retriever called Milo. I've been attending Hogwarts for four years now and my house is Ravenclaw. My best friends are Cho and Athena.
I was sitting on the train to Hogwarts, I had been looking out for this moment the whole week. I'll definitely miss home, but Hogwarts was also a kind of home. All the homework and tests weren't that exciting but I couldn't wait to use magic and fly again.

"My dad told me something and you guys have to hear it!" Cho Chang begon.

"Spill!" Athena Snow said over excited.

"Don't get too excited yet. What he said was that there's this new boy coming to Hogwarts." Cho continued.

"How is that not exciting?"

I chuckled at that response, Athena was alway too busy with boys. I wouldn't be surprised if she'd put any boy before me. It was a bit concerning at this point, seeing that people only got hurt in the process.

"Well...it's his son." Cho said with a trace of fear and disgust in her voice.

Voldemort's son?

"The son of who shall not be named?" Athena asked in shock. "Nevermind then." She was clearly disappointed.

"Why is he suddenly coming now?" I asked curious.

"I don't know."

"What if he's here to help his father?" Athena asked, her eyes widened in fear.

"I don't th..." I wanted to start but got cut off.

"What if he kills us?!" Cho added.

"But we still have so much to do!"

Athena and Cho began rambling about all the stuff that they would miss. After hearing hundreds of things, I eventually became sick of it so I went to go to the 'toilet'.
I went through multiple coupes. Saying 'sorry' or 'excuse me' now and then when I needed space or interrupted a conversation. I walked into a new coupe when I accidentally bumped into someone.

"Sorry." I apologized.

I looked at the person who I had bumped into, it was a boy who I had never seen before. The boy had dark curly hair and a scar going from his cheek through his eyebrow. He had brown puppy eyes that lacked emotion, in fact his whole face missed emotion. I wanted to say something but without any more words the boy walked away before I could. It wasn't weird or something, but I at least expected a apology or a 'thank you'. I don't know how I couldn't recognise the boy at all. Of course I don't know everyone but you'd thought that I would recognise someone as gorgeous as him. Maybe it's just a boy who got a glow-up over the summer.
After a few more coupes I eventually found one with younger kids. They only took up one side of the coupe. This was perfect because they wouldn't annoy me and I could have my 'own' space. I grabbed my headphones and started listening to music. I was grateful for being a muggle at that moment. I will forever thank the person who invented the walkman. With the music shutting out the other sounds, I had a little 'main character' moment. I looked out of the window and started thinking.
How would this year go with quidditch, would we actually win something this time? And how about the classes? I'd probably pass them, right? The new boy! Voldemort's son. What would he do? How will he be as a person? I don't think he could be as bad as his father to be honest. Or could he? I'm really curious, but also open minded. Everyone should get a chance right?
