Y/N
Today's my first day at Hogwarts. For the past few years I've been going to Beauxbatons, but after some change in the family, Dad figured it'd be for the best to move to the same school as my brother; Theo, that is. I'm in year 4 this year, so definitely late for a school switch. I'm 14, 15 later this year, same as Theo. I'm not super sure how I'm feeling. I mean I had some great friends at Beaxbatons, but I get where Dad's coming from, wanting Theo and I to live closer, and it's not like Theo can just waltz on over to an all girls school and say he's joining.
Theo and I are about to board the train to Hogwarts, I'm standing inbetween Dad and Grandma, filling the awkwardly spaced gap they've left between eachother, he's trying to encourage me to talk to someone, or at least join Theo with his friends. I've told him I'll join them on the train, and I'm just letting him catch up without me first. He seem to believe it. I mean, I probably won't even be that good of friends with them all at school anyways. Grandma doesn't think I'll be a Slytherin like Theo. I think she's right. I mean I have my cunning and mean witted moments, but I've been told on multiple accounts that 'She'd never hurt a fly', and I'm not so sure that's a Slytherin sounding trait.
The sound of the train horn pulls me from my thoughts; I look up to see Theo awkward walk-running back to Dad and I. He gives him a hug and I follow suit.
'Remember look after Y/N', Dad chuckles to Theo trying not to make feel bad about myself, but I can see the stern look he's giving my brother, meaning he really does mean what he says.
'Aww, give me one last hug the both of you!', Grandma's eyes are stung with tears she's holding back. I grimace at Theo and nod my head to get him over here before she starts bawling. 'I'm going to miss my twinnies so much! Aren't you David?' Grandma is from Mum's side, and still tries to include Dad in conversations while we're around, but I think it'd be less awkward if she just didn't say anything. Dad just hummed in response, showing the discomfort he's obviously knee deep in.
Theo nods to the train, looking ridiculously like I had seconds ago when I had nodded to Grandma. As we wave and start walking toward the train I can't help but think how even though we look nothing alike, we still show so many similarities. I mean, he has brown hair and green-blue eyes, I'm a natural blonde with deep brown eyes, we seriously couldn't look any different despite how many times our Grandma says we look the same.
He leads me to a carriage down the back, it's already filled with some of his friends, so I'm guessing it's the one they've claimed every year. I take a few deep breaths, preparing myself for the awkward hellos and introductions I'm about to go through.
THEO
As I wave goodbye to Grandma and Dad it's obvious Y/N's already in her head. She tends to overthink these things despite how confident she can seem. Y/N and I are really close, even though we've gone to different schools for the last four years. She's quieter than me, much more kind hearted, I'd really be surprised if she's in Slytherin, if I had to place bets I'd put my money on Hufflepuff, though if being a bitch when pissed off played any factors in house sorting, she'd be in Slytherin without a doubt. Luckily, our Dad won't care what house she's in, although he's a Death Eater, or researcher of Muggle activities if you're anyone who'd not into Death Eater shit, he's still not the kind of person to care about that.
I take a quick glance back at Y/N while walking down the train to my normal carriage. She looks nervous, picking at her fingers and chewing on her cheek. I already told my friends that she'd be moving here, so hopefully they won't be so standoff-ish when meeting her.
'Okay, ready?', I say trying not to sound too nervous for her either.
'Yeah, why wouldn't I be?', and there's the start of the social mask she can put on so easily.
