*Charlotte's POV*
I set my muggle alarm clock for 5:30 on the day I was due to go to Hogwarts. I was already packed and ready to go but I needed to double check or I would forget something. I smashed the snooze button and the load blaring rang through my eyes. I flipped back the covers and rolled out of bed, quite literally. My dad came running in to see if I was okay because apparently, 'I had made a load thud' I just laughed it off and sent him away so I could show and change.
As the warm spray of water trickled down my back, I though about Hogwarts. Were the teachers going to like me? What would lessons be like? Most of all, I was thinking about being an outcast. I felt a tear slide down my face so I washed the rest of my hair and jumped out of the shower.
When I got back to my room, I changed into a skinner pair of jeans and a comfortable top and hoodie. I applied a small amount of make up and curled my hair; I had to make a good impression, okay? I didnt want to spend the next seven years alone.
"Charlotte! Its time to go! You don't want to be late!" My dad brang me back to reality as I tried to memorize every inch of my room. From the simple double bed with black and red sheets, to the walls - covered in organised posters of various people, to my memory wall - with a giant picture of my mother, father and me, I wanted to remember it all.
I grabbed my heavy trunk and dragged it down the stairs out to the car. Our car wasn't anything special, it was just a light blue Ford with silver trimmings, but it held plenty of space and drove amazingly. As I sat in the front seat next to my dad, I saw that he looked like he was ready to cry. "Please don't cry Dad." I mumbled hoping he wouldn't hear, but he did and turned to look at me.
"I don't want to cry Char, but look at you! All grown up and off to school! I'm not going to see you as much and I'm going to be all alone at home!" A stray tear escaped his eyes as he sniffed and tried to ignore it.
"Dad! You'll see me at holidays and I'll wrote to you every week! I'll miss you to but I need to do this, if not for me, for mum." I replied as strongly as I could. Thoughts of my mothers smiles made me smile.
"She would be so proud of the girl you've become, Charlotte. She really would've." And with that comment, we stopped talking. I looked out the window, watching the streets of London fly past as we headed towards King Cross Station. I knew I had to be there before 10 o'clock but I had no idea where the platform was. That would be fun.
We pulled up outside and I saw the hundreds of people there, all wanting to find their platform and say goodbye to loved ones. Me and my dad grabbed a trolley and placed my luggage on top in an organised fashion.My kitten on top. I still haven't named her yet. My dad passed me a letter. I looked at him, confused, and he sniffed and said, "I can't come in with you any further, but in that letter are your mothers exact instructions on how to get there and what to do. I love you monkey, and I'll see you at Christmas." Tears were falling feely down his face and he pulled me into a hug. He hadn't called me 'monkey' since mum died because that's what she would call me. I cried with him until he pulled away and held me at arms length, "Go and make me proud sweetie." And with that, I walked into the station and looked for the platform 9 and 3/4.
