Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Hogwarts, or any of the real characters; J.K. Rowling owns them. I wish I did, but sadly I don't! And I typed up the Hogwarts letter word-for-word (replacing it with Evelyn's name) from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
Chapter One: Accepted
"Evelyn," George's joyful voice called. I kept still under my pillow, tears climbing down the curves of my cheeks. George, Fred, Percy, and Ron had all received their letters to Hogwarts a week ago and I was still empty-handed. I was a Pureblood, how could my letter not be here yet? A bloody Pureblood! Well at least that's what I was told... I groaned turning onto my side as George sat on my bed with a worried face. "Are you okay, Ev?"
"No George, I am not okay! We're all going to go to Diagon Alley today and I'm going to be the only one not buying stuff for Hogwarts!" I said wiping away my tears.
"No, you forgot Ginny. She doesn't start until next year," he said smiling and handed me a letter. "Mase came with it this morning."
I smiled; it was my letter to Hogwarts. "Are you serious? At the last possible moment! It's almost the twenty-first!" I looked at the front that said:
Miss Black-Diggory
The Top Room at the Burrow,
Ottery St. Catchpole
Devon, England
"I wonder way it says 'Black-Diggory'?" I wondered aloud to George.
George glanced at the letter and shrugged. "Maybe they misspelled your middle name; Blake... and then they thought it was another last name?"
"I guess," I said. Shrugging, I opened the letter in the back where the red wax Hogwarts seal was located. Two pages were folded neatly inside. I took them out and read them; sparks of excitement went through me with every word I read.
