 Hogwarts Here We (F*cking) Come Part 3

The train makes it to the castle quickly. I was very giddy. All of us were. Then we had to rush to change in to our robes. I pull on my Slytherin robes quickly over top of my clothes. I put on my Slytherin baseball cap, which Kierst had made for me, it’s silver and green. It says Slytherin’s best on it and has a big green arrow pointing downwards at my head. I love it and wear all the time if I can. I brush my hair quickly and look at my friends. We all ask the same question.

“Do I look okay?” I laugh we all insure one another that we look great. I finally unboard (A.N. Is this a word? Oh well I don't care it is one now) the train. We run over to the cart and I grab my huge trunk. I’m glad my clothes, spell books, broom, robes and flue and oboe cases fit inside that trunk.  I’m surprise the silver latches on my trunk haven’t broken yet. Every year I stuff as much crap as I can in there. I grab Aria’s cage. She makes a loud hoot and I stare at her.

“I thought you liked Hogwarts more than you like Aunt’s Deena’s place,” I tell her. Aria is a snowy owl with multiple black and brown feathers she’s a very pretty, young owl. I struggle grabbing my guitar case.  It’s so heavy along with my trunk. I finally swing the case around my shoulder. I’m glad I didn’t get my electric guitar. I play bass too, but I’m not as attached to that as I am to my Rosie. Yeah I think of Rosie as a person even though I know she’s just a guitar. I’m so attached to her because she was the only thing that didn’t burn in the fire. She belonged to my father. I had reached for her during the fire. I actually think I placed a protection charm on her by accident. I didn’t know about magic then. But apparently I have a great aunt who was an excellent witch. She was at Hogwarts too. She had been a Gryffindor so had her brother. Shocking I was a Slytherin. I pick up Aria’s cage in one hand and lug my trunk behind me. Professor McGonagall leads us to the great hall. I set my bags on another cart and we entered together. I link arms with Luna and Kierst.  We walk with the first years to watch the sorting. We figured why not.  We watched as the kids put the large sorting hat on their heads and giggle with excitement.  All the kids get sorted and it’s all happy and stuff. We finally get down to the great hall and sit down for the feast. I sit in between Ron and Luna. We fill our plates and goblets.  Luna, Kiersten and I sit at the Gryffindor table. We decide we should sit there because Fred, Hermione, Ron, Harry, George, and Ginny were all Gryffindors and they beat us in numbers.  The feast was long and we did a lot of catching up with Seamus Finnigan and Dean Thomas. I finally retire to the girls' Gryffindor dorm room. Through almost all my years at Hogwarts, I slept in the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor dorms. It was against the rules but Kiersten and I didn’t care about breaking them. Actually I broke the rules a lot. I also served a lot of detention. Even though I’m a Slytherin, Professor Snape doesn’t love me. I change into my pajamas and sigh loudly. There were four small beds. I wondered why Ginny and Hermione’s room mates were. In case they came back I shared a bed with Ginny. Kierst slept on the floor, and Hermione and Luna shared Hermione’s bed. I was exhausted.

“Can you believe that in a few short hours we will have started fifth year? Well fourth year for Ginny and I,” Luna said excitedly excitedly.

 “Nope, I can’t believe it,” Kiersten replies. I roll my eyes at her and yawn loudly.

“Oh I can’t wait!” Ginny gushes.

“Me either. Goodnight girls,” Hermione says as she gets under the covers. I get under the covers with Ginny. My head hits the pillow and I’m sure I instantly fell asleep.
