Since there were only a few days left until the start of the school year, Y/N used the time to read his new books, listen to music or play Wizard Chess with Mary. But most of the time he was alone because her off days were used up and she had to go back to her works Mary worked at the Department of Magical Law Enforcment in the Improper Use of Magic office. Beside that she had a seat in the Wizengamot which Y/N considered a stroke of luck for him.
On the morning of the 1st September Y/N woke up very early caused of his excitement. He went for the shower and changed quickly. He packed his trunk on the day before so he had enough time to take a relaxed breakfast. "Seems like someone is exited", Mary stated. Y/N nodded heavily because his mouth was so packed up with toast that he couldn't speak.
After an hour of waiting and chatting it was time to get to Kings Cross. "I will drop you off, but I have to get to work immediately so I will say goodbye to you here", she pulled him close and gave him a big hug "Please don't cause any trouble this year, I don't want to pick you up. If you need someone to talk to you can owl me any time!" "Alright Mary I'll try my best", Y/N grinned. She gave him a small clap on the shoulders. Y/N felt the familiar feeling to get sucked down in a pipe. They appeared in front off a big red locomotive. Thick white steam came out of her smokestack. His jaw dropped and he looked at his view with a dreamy smile. "So see you in the Holidays Y/N", Mary gave him a kiss on his forehead and left. He stayed for a few second on the spot and observed the platform closely. Mary dropped him off half an hour for departure that's why there weren't many people on the platform.
Y/N entered the train and took seat in the first empty compartment he could find. He put his trunk in the luggage compartment, took seat next to the window and put on his headphones and his hood. "These seats are way more comfortable than the ones on the plane", he thought and took Gadding with Gouls out of his bag.
Time passed and after about 25 minutes the compartment door slid open again and there stood a round face, slightly chubby boy with a toad in his hands. "Can we sit down, every other Compartment is already full." "We? Is he talking about this toad?", Y/N thought but nodded with a smile. He looked back down on his book. Shortly after he could see a skirt over the edge of his book. "Didn't he just wore a Jeans before?" Y/N looked up and saw the brown haired girl, he saw in Flourish and Blotts before. "AH ok that makes sense", he mumbled. "What makes sense?", she asked confused with a raised eyebrow. "No... nothing, I -I was just talking about the book", Y/N stuttered. She seemed pleased with his response and sat across from him. Y/N went back to reading. Shortly after, the train began rolling out of the station. "I wonder where Harry and Ron are, have u seen them Neville?" "N no I haven't" "They always get in trouble", she said and began reading Travel with Trolls.
After about an hour Y/N took off his hood, placed his book next to him and looked out the window. "I have seen you in Flourish and Blotts", the girls stated. "I saw you too. My name is Y/N L/N nice to meet you", he responded and held out his hand. "My name is Hermione, Hermione Granger and this is Neville Longbottem", she said pointing in Nevilles direction. Neville gave him a nervous wink. "What are you listening to?" "Oh just some No-maj musicians" "No-maj?" "Yes... you know normal people." When he said - normal - he marked it with his finger with a quotation mark and rolled his eyes. "Ahh you mean muggles", he seemed confused. "I guess, you know I lived in America before, we called them no-maj, but actually I like the phrase muggles more, it has a better flow", he stated with a hand on his chin. "Are you a muggleborn?" He raised his eyebrow and responded annoyed "Really, I didn't expected you to be one of those people, but no I'm not I am actually a Pureblood", he stated with crossed arms. She flushed and started mumbling something. That was when Neville spoke up "Don't worry Y/N, Hermione is a muggleborn herself." "Oh ok than I am sorry for being rude." "No its ok, I am glad that you think so about muggleborns, good to know that there are some purebloods that think like this!". Neville seemed offended "Hey, have you forget about ME or RON?". Hermione flushed even more and mumbled something that sounded like -maybe-.
After a while Hermione began talking again "I have never seen you in Hogwarts, are you a first year?" "Kind of. I visited Ilvermorny before so technically yes and no, this will be my second year." "We are second years too", Neville said exited. "Do you know in which house you want?" "I don't really care I think I would be fine with every house." "As long as it isn't Slytherin", Neville stated and all three began laughing. "Have you been expelled or why are you coming to Hogwarts now?", she thought aloud with one hand on her chin and raised eyebrows. "To be honest I don't really wanna talk about it!", he determined definitely but kindly and gave her a sad smile. She looked at him and could see the pain in his eyes. However, she knew that she shouldn't ask about it any time soon. "You were reading Gadding with Gouls, do you like it?" "Hmm surprisingly yes!" "Suprisingly?" she exclaimed offended. "You know when I saw Lockhart that day in the bookshop I thought -what a lifted donkey-, but I used the last few days to read the schoolbooks and I am pretty impressed by his achievements. Gadding whit Gouls especially. So smart how he..." "tricked him with the tea strainer", Hermine continued and gave Y/N a nervous grin. He looked at her perplexedly for a moment and began laughing.
The rest of the journey the three of them talked with each other und started becoming friends. The train arrived in the evening. Immediately a great rush broke out, everyone wanted to get out of the train and onto the platform.
When Y/N left the train he could here a deep voice calling "Firs' years over here". "Ok guys I think I should go then, see you later", Y/N rushed off while winking at Hermione and Neville. He followed the source of the voice until he came to a ridiculous tall man. He had a bushy black beard and long shaggy black hair. "Everyone there? Okay lets go!" And the crowd, lead by the giant, walked off. They reached a small pier "No more'n four in one Boat". Y/N took seat next to a small boy with mousegrey hair he had a camera with him and seemed extraordinary exited. The Boats took off. Y/N was freezing. 'On the open water it is even colder than on the platform', he thought while he started trembling. After a while they passed a front of trees and then he saw Hogwarts for the first time.
It was breathtaking. The boy next to Y/N started clicking even faster than the wizard in the bookshop. "I wonder what happens if he spots Lockhart or Harry", he thought grinning.
After a few minutes the boats reached the bottom of steep stairs. The giant led them up. On the entrance of the castle waited a witch for them. She wore a dark green rob and a green hat. She looked very strict and began talking to the students. Y/N wasn't listening, he was still stunned by the castle. He was observing every centimeter of it. In that moment someone tipped in his back. "Hey move!", he turned around and spotted the small red-haired girl he saw in the book store before. He didn't noticed that the crowd of people started walking again this time led by the witch in green.
They entered the Great Hall and walked down the passageway between some long tables. At the end he spotted an even bigger table which stood a little higher. In the middle sat an old man with a long white beard and half-moon glasses on a large golden throne. His blue eyes looked at the newcomers.
When they got to the front, the woman who had led them went up to the stage and put an old, rancid hat on a tripod stool. At first nothing happened, after a time the hat's brim opened and the hat started to sing. When he finished the whole hall began clapping and cheering for him. The witch in Green stood up again and everyone went silent.
"This year we don't just have to sort the first graders in their house but also a school changer coming into the second year. When I call you please come forward and take a seat"
Every time she called out a name, a student went forward and sat on the stool. Then the hat was put on him after a while the hat yelled the name of the house he was sorted in. Some became Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws. So far there hasn't been a Gryffindor neither a Slytherin.
"Creevey, Collin!"
The small boy with the Camera went up and took place. Then the hat yelled "Gryffindor" and the table to Y/Ns right began clapping and cheering. So it went on until finally:
"L/N, Y/N!"
