A Change of Heart(Dramione)

Hogwarts

The train slows to a stop.

"Come on let's go!" I practically yell. I grab Margaret's hand. We walk down the train's halls that are crowded with students. We finally manage to get out of the Express and get onto solid ground. Boys and girls help us with our trunks as we get off of the train.

"Ok Margaret. This is were I leave you, but don't worry, I will see you around. Do you see that man?" I ask pointing to Hagrid. She nods firmly. I pull her over to Hagrid.

"Hello Hagrid. This is Margaret. She's a first year."

"Well 'ello 'ermoine and Margaret."

"See you Margaret. It's great to be back Hagrid! Well is suppose I have to go. Bye Hagrid." I give him a hug.

"Bye 'ermoine." I walk away and wave at Margaret. I hear Hagrid bellow to the first years as I find Harry, Ginny, and Ron. We get in the carriages that we are supposed to ride in to Hogwarts. The thestrails pull the carriages. They really are amazing. Only those who have seen death can see them.

"Harry! I can see the thestrials!" Ginny says.

"They're beautiful aren't they?" She smiles and pets one.

"Blimey Moine I can see them too!" I nod and let out a small giggle. Ron hops into our carriage and helps me in. Harry gets in and then helps Ginny in. We close the door and the carriage starts off immediately. I look out the window as we travel down the worn down dirt path leading to Hogwarts.

"Do you reckon it'll be different this year?" Ron asks sheepishly.

"Of course Ron! The only difference is that we will be in Ginny's grade. But that's okay because I think loads of kids our age are retaking their 7th year because the battle made us miss our final exams. I heard Neville and Luna are going to be here." He looks and me and nods slowly, still taking it all in.

The carriage slows to a stop. I open the door and hop out.

"C'mon guys!" I squeal. Ron laughs.

"Wait up Moine!" He yells still laughing. We walk to the door together as we hold hands. we rush inside and walk into the Great Hall. I gasp. The floating candles and the amazing ceiling enchantments never stop amazing me. Ron, Harry, Ginny, and I find empty seats at our crowded Gryffindor table. We make small talk until the first year bustle into the room lead by Hagrid. It was McGonagall's job to lead them in but now that shes headmistress, Hagrid does it.

"Okay now. When I call you name, you will sit on the stool and I will place the Sorting Hat onto your head. The hat will determine your house. Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Huflepuff, or Slytherin. Your house will be like your family. You will be kind and respect everybody in your house. If you fail to do so or if you break rules, points will be taken away and if you do good things, you will be rewarded points. These points will be used to determine the winner of the House Cup at the end of the year." McGonagall states. "Now let's continue. Smith, Marry." She sits on the stool and the hat ponders about the house.

"Huflepuff!" The sorting hat yells. One by one all of the first years are sorted. Ten of the 31 students come to Gryffindor, one of them being Margaret, 6 to Huflepuff, 8 to Ravenclaw, and 7 to Slytherin. The first years find their seats and the feast begins. I quickly rush back to the common room after its all over. I locate my trunk which is right next to my bed and I grab my little package out of my trunk. I sit down on the bed. Crookshanks purrs and rubs against me. I take a deal breath and open the package. The crisp brown paper crackles as I open it.
