After we arrived, Daphne and I jumped out of the carriages and came to a stop in front of a huge castle and I smiled with joy. It was beautiful!
On the way here Daphne had explained to me about the different houses and how I would probably be sorted first by the sorting hat. She explained each house to me and how she was in Slytherin, and I hoped I would be placed with her as I could see us being really good friends. She had also explained how Harry Potter was here, to my dismay. He had caused way too much drama in my life and I didn't even know the guy. Certainly not a fan.
"Amaris Villin!" A croaky yet squeaky voice shouted, and I looked up from my conversation with Daphne to find a tall woman staring into the crowd of other students that had formed around us.
"Yes..?" I said nervously whilst looking up at her.
"Ah there you are. Come, you will be sorted first before the first years, I am Professor McGonagall" she said whilst ushering me inside and I waved behind me to Daphne before I lost sight of her.
I gasped slightly as the Professor lead me towards a huge hall that was lit entirely with floating candles, and four very large tables were spread across the room whilst another table at the end was covered with impatient looking teachers.
She gestured for me to stand and wait in front of the four tables as all of the other students began to pour in and I started to feel incredibly nervous. I don't think i'd ever stood alone in front of such a huge crowd with all eyes on me, it was kind of awkward.
As most of the students had taken their seats, a man who I know to be called Dumbledore cleared his throat in front of me.
"Now today before we begin the sorting ceremony, I would like to introduce a very special student who is joining us to begin her fifth year here!" he exclaimed.
Huh? He best not be talking about me.
"Amaris Villin!" He shouted and I made a face of disapproval before stepping up in front of all of the students.
"Welcome, Miss Villin! We don't usually get new students after first year. Please, take a seat on that stool over there. Professor McGonagall will bring the sorting hat" He finished as I nodded to him and thanked him. God could he have brought any more attention onto me.
Soon after, the lady Professor came towards me and placed a hat on my head, when all of a sudden it began to scream, and all of the students covered their ears as did I.
"SLYTHERIN! YES SHE WILL BE IN SLYTHERIN! NOW GET ME OFF HER HEAD!" The hat yelled. What on earth is going on, I thought.
Before I knew it the hat had been removed from my head in a hurry and the table I knew to be Slytherin all stood up and cheered. I blushed slightly whilst walking over to them, my heels clicking on the floor as I walked.
I spotted Daphne near the end of the long table and I skipped over to her as she waved me over. "What the hell just happened!" She yelled as I sat down next to her.
"What do you mean?" I questioned her, genuinely confused.
"The hat, silly! It literally just screamed whilst on your head!" she yelled in disbelief and I shrugged.
"I haven't a clue, I just assumed it was supposed to do that" I admitted and shrugged it off.
"No, it isn't" another voice said. I looked up and noticed the group from earlier sitting around us and I groaned in annoyance.
"Oh yeah! Maris- can I call you Maris? I like that" She waffled on as I nodded and giggled slightly. "Yes, my family call me Maris" I assured her as she continued.
