Hey humans, This is my first story on Wattpad so I apologise if it sucks but I really hope you like it. I'm not going to start with a schedule for updating but I may develop one if you like it.

*Charlotte's POV*
Today is the day. Today is my 11th birthday. Today is the day I have been waiting for my whole life. My only wish for today was to hear the soft 'thud' of the post against the bristly door mat, to look in amongst the bills and see a tea-stained colour envelope with black curvaceous handwriting addressed to me, and to see the red wax stamp with that logo embossed on it. If you have no idea what I'm on about, let me explain.
The letter I'm waiting for is from Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry. My mum was a witch and my dad is muggle born, making me a half-blood witch. It has been my dream to attend that school even since my mother told me about it as I fell to sleep. She used to tell me about how mischievous she and her friends were and the teachers to avoid, I can map out the whole school inside of my head. I do miss my mum whenever I think about Hogwarts. She sadly passed away last year when a spell went horrifically wrong. She was trying to create a spell to protect me and my father until I was able to legally use magic, but it backfired and caused her incurable internal bleeding. She died a few hours later in surgery. I didn't find out until a few hours later which really hurt.
"Char? Hey Char! Post!" My dads rough voice echoed through my ears but I didn't here what he said, I was too lost in my thoughts. "Charlotte! If you don't hurry up I will open every letter that is in the pile!" He shouted. At the thought of him opening my letter, I bolted down the stairs, tripping over my own feet and grabbed the pile of bleak white packages. I held by breath and turned away as I handed him the small pile. I could hear the rustling of the envelopes then when I felt all hope inside me be demolished, I heard his gasp of breath.
"Char. Turn around. Look at me." He whispered and I could sense the smile that was already on his face. I followed his request. He had a Cheshire Cat smile on his face and the letter of my dreams in his hand. I squealed in excitement as I slowly opened the letter.

I dropped the letter in pure shock and watched as my dad picked it up and looked at it, a million thoughts going through his mind. Today was the 30th August. How on earth was I supposed to reply by tomorrow?! Apparently, dad guessed what I was thinking and laughed. "Don't worry sweetheart, your mother had all of this work out perfectly. She has already accepted for you and all of your things are in the attic. Now, birthday girl! Let's go have fun!"
*Time skip to end of day cause I'm lazy, sorry*
I collapsed on my bed and looked over at the clock: 11:30pm. I decided to sleep because I had a busy next two days and needed all my energy.

Hi, again.
I apologise that this chapter sucks but Wattpad deleted all my original stuff so I had to rewrite it. The next chapters should be more interesting. Please comment ideas and thoughts
