I know I'm late but that's ok. "Are you ready?" James says coming up to me and wrapping an arm around my shoulder. I look at him and smile nodding. I grab an apple from behind us on the kitchen counter. "I packed everything I could think of." I said smiling, looking down at my bags. "What about Pepper?" He says looking around. Pepper is my two year old pigmy puff. The school kindly made an exception for me to bring him since he was my only pet. "He's in the car." I say raising my head to look out the window. He nods, takes an apple as well and walks back up Into his room. I can't believe today is finally here. I'm attending Hogwarts. Like i said previously, yes, I'm aware that I'm late but that's ok. I'm sure I'll still make friends, keep my grades up and still have free time even though I've missed a few things.
The only part that I'm nervous about is the whole sorting situation. My parents are almost 100% sure that I'll be either Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw. James thinks I'll be either Slytherin or Gryffindor. To be honest, I hope I do get sorted into Gryffindor. James has amazing friends; Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. I've only met them a few times but they seem like nice people. Sure, they're cheeky but so am I. I hear my mom yelling for me at the front door. I walk out of the kitchen and see her , standing straight with a wide grin on her face. I can tell she's been looking forward to today, too. "Sweetheart, are you ready?" She asks me as she looks at me up and down. I nod, smiling only slightly. "JAMES CMON!" I yell putting my hands up to my mouth. "COMING!" He yells back as he runs downstairs with two suitcases of clothing and other things. "Let's Go" I say picking up my bags from the ground and walking outside. The warm breeze hits me as I take a step outside the door. I can see Pepper looking at me with her watery, small and fragile eyes. I open the trunk of the car, put in my bags after James and get in the backseat. Pepper spins as I sit down. It takes her a few seconds to get comfy on my shoulder but she finds a spot, she'll stay there for hours. Dad start the car engine as I lay back in my seat. Off to the train station we go.
Many minutes later, my brother gets out of the car and helps me out. We pop open the trunk. Pepper still on my shoulder, waking up with a jump because of the sound of James knocking his head on the trunk. I try to muffle up my laughter by pretending to wipe my nose on my burgundy sweater. He can always see right through me though as he hits my shoulder, laughing and rubbing his head in pain. "That HURT, shut it!" He says still laughing. He grabs his things and I grab mine. We start to head towards the entrance of the train station. When we get inside, I'm in awe about how big and fancy it looks. "Pretty, ain't it?" My father says bumping my side. I nod and take Pepper as i put her Inside my sweater so no one can see the magical creature. We go down a few steps and reach the wall that we must run through.
"Are you sure it works for everyone?" I say wincing at the thought of me crashing. My parents and twin brother encourage me. I take a deep breath and run straight. My eyes shut, I feel a weird sensation only for a second. I open my eyes slowly to Look around and see a "9 3/4" sign above my head. I smile and back out of the way to see James bursting through the wall with my parents following him. "You did it! See?" My mom says tilting her head. I smile and turn to the train. "It's leaving in a few minutes! You better hurry!" My mom says looking at her watch. She pushes us towards the train entrance. "My deer, you be careful out there. You'll have an amazing time! I promise" my dad says kissing my cheek. "Oh sweetie, I love you so much! Be careful. Good luck." My mom says trying not to shed a single tear. They make the same Speech to James as he hugs them and hops onto the train with me. The train start to move. James starts walking but then stops realisijg I haven't met anyone yet therefore I have no friends. "Libby, would you like to come sit with me and my friends?" He says handing out his hand. I smile ok relief and take his hand. He leads me through the crowd of panicking first years to a cart with three boys. A boy with small features but handsome at the same time that we call Peter, a dark haired boy with large eyes and a dark complexion that is famously known as mister Sirius Black and finally, a pretty boy with smart looks and a book in his hands that is named Remus.
