Royalty at Hogwarts

Hogwarts

Ever since we met, Xavier and I have been inseparable. We've met up with each other in the meadow to just talk. We have caught up about our entire lives and what each of our parents said in the letters. We have become really close. We also have been sneaking away to go to Diagon Ally, to get the rest of our stuff for school. Which we've been keeping in the meadow.

Dumbledore showed up on Monday like he said he would and told Francine that a long lost aunt has shown up to adopt me, which wasn't true. So here we are, at the leaky cauldron with all of my stuff in a trunk. Xavier was brought here, a day before me. I follow Dumbledore back through the common area and then through a set of double doors and into a back hallway with doors lining the walls, it honestly looked like it went on forever, I look up at the lights and they are just floating globes of white light. We stop at room 309, "Xavier's room is right across the hall. And if you need anything just say Tom and he will show up to help in anyway he can. I have informed him of your situation, that you are an underaged witch who needs a place to stay."

"Thank you." I tell him. He smiles and heads back down the hallway. I close the door and look around. The bed is huge and comfy looking. Asha perches herself happily on top of one of the posts of the four poster bed. The bathroom is big and has a nice bathtub.

I fill the bath with hot water and bubbles start to bubble up and smell like vanilla and mint, it brings me back to when I was a baby, my mother and I were walking around outside in the snow with a huge leopard, I feel safe even though there is a predator next to me. We stop walking when we reach a small pond, my father walks up from behind us smiling with hot chocolate. Next to him stands a bear. We sit next to the lake on a blanket father conjures up and relax. The two Predators are off playing in the snow, I snuggle into mother's arms and breathe in mint and vanilla, I break out of the memory, wipe away the tears and get into the bath. I think about the memory as I wash my body and hair and then dry off. I get out of the bathroom fully dressed in an extra large hoodie and no pants. I lay down on the bed and close my eyes, my mind still wandering.

I wake up to light knocking on my door and the warm morning sun in my face. I quickly change into more appropriate clothing, I might have went shopping and bought a new outfit for myself. It wasn't anything fancy just a cute white sweater and a pair of jeans that fit me perfectly, I slip on some combat boots and slip my wand in the left boot.

I open the door and Xavier was standing there with a red sweatshirt and dark jeans, and white nike shoes. I smile and he asks "Do you want to get breakfast before we head to the Hogwarts Express?"

"Yeah let me just get some things." I turn around and grab my purse that has my coins in it and I pat my shoulder so Asha swoops down and lands onto it as a creamy white owl with bright greens eyes.

"Have you gotten a pet yet?" I ask as we walk down the hallway excited to get food.

"No I was planning on going to Diagon Alley at 8:00 so we have plenty of time to find platform 9 3/4. Which I don't actually think is a thing but that's just my thoughts. I guess we'll see." He stares at one of the occupants of a room, who is covered in green slime.

"You know this world is completely different than the world we come from. So much to learn." I say, watching as one of the paintings move on the wall in his painting, in astonishment, before it looks at me and asks why I am staring at him. My eyes widen and I look away quickly.

Xavier just laughs at my reaction and  responds with. "I know I can't wait to learn everything." I hit him in the arm playfully, for laughing at me, he just laughs some more.

"It seems like everyone knows everyone." I note as we reach the double doors that lead through to the leaky cauldron and push them open. I was not expecting it to be packed full with people. There were witches and wizards of all types. We head over to the counter and order our pancakes to go. They are out in a minute and float in front of us above the counter in small boxes before we grab them and leave to the back. Xavier presses the middle block and the wall folds in on itself opening up the archway to Diagon Alley.
