San woke up and rubbed his eyes in the darkness of his bed, his bed curtains blocking out all light.

He could hear movement from the other side and knew that his roommates were up and getting ready for the day. It was the first weekend of the semester and already most of them were swamped with homework for one class or another.

Sitting up, San turned and opened one of the curtains. His eyes squinting in the light of morning coming from their window.

"Good morning San." Hongjoong said as he sat fully dressed on his own bed and picked up the watch that was sitting on his bedside table and started to put it on.

"Morning."

"I'm going to study with Seonghwa in the library, you're more than welcome to join us."

"Is it past breakfast already?" San asked as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes.

Hongjoong smiled, "Yeah, you were sleeping like a rock. I didn't want to wake you."

San hurriedly jumped out of bed, went to his trunk and started to rifle through it, looking for clothes that would be good against the cold. He could hardly forget that he had quidditch tryouts tonight. "Dang it, yeah I'll come. I was out practicing for tryouts last night and I didn't get back until late." He found a black turtleneck sweater and dark tattered jeans.

"Oh, I almost forgot those were today. You've been trying to get out almost every night since we got here to practice."

"Yeah, I never like to do things halfway. If I'm going to try out, I'm going to make sure I make the team." He was grabbing his book bag from the end of the bed as he spoke, pulling it over his shoulder and he followed Hongjoong out of the room and down the hall. They made their way, twisting through still foreign halls to the library.

"I don't know how you make sense of it all," said San as they found Seonghwa and sat down across from him. "I feel like every time I turn a corner I'm in a new hallway that I've never seen before."

Seonghwa spoke from behind his book. "Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it."

"Isn't there a map or something that I could use?"

Hongjoong looked seriously over his shoulder at San, "Rumor has it that when Harry Potter was at school, he had a magical map that not only had the layout of the entire school but it could also tell where everyone was at any time."

"What happened to it?" San asked.

"No idea, he probably still has it. His son, James, is in his first year. Maybe he has it."

Seonghwa rolled his eyes. "Hongjoong you know that's just a rumor. Don't go talking about it like it's real."

"Well you never know," Hongjoong shrugged and pulled his inkwell and quill out of his book bag along with several pieces of parchment. "I need to write this essay for Professor Longbottom. He'll kill me if I turn it in late."

Professor Longbottom was the head of Gryffindor house and Professor of Herbology. He was a tall gangly man with dark hair and freckles all over his face.

San had walked into the first class and immediately spotted Mingi and Yunho sitting on one of the benches. He hurried over to them and sat down. "Boy am I glad to see you guys, I just came from Potions with Ravenclaw and there was no one I knew. Not that I'm opposed to making friends."

"We totally get it. First day can be hard. What else do you have today?" Mingi asked looking over at San's schedule.
