WERE TIMESKIPPING YALL! 

Timeskip to Last Day of 1st Year

Gamilla PoV

I fold my last set of school robes and put them into my trunk.  "I can't believe today's our last day of school!" Peggy exclaims, pulling on knee high yellow socks. I look in the mirror and study my outfit. A knee length black dress that has a turtle neck and black high tops. 

"Wow Gamilla. You look like.... a Slytherin," says Eponine, tying her green wrap around skirt. "The minister of Magic is picking me up. I'm visiting my father." "oh..." 

We all walk downstairs, pulling our packed trunks with us. We walk down to Hogsmeade station, taking the boats for the last time. 

"I'm going to miss you two," Eponine says sadly. I smile. "Here's my address! You can write me letters! We can write each other letters!" I hand them each a sticky note with my aunt's address. "Who's address is this, Gamilla?" asks Peggy. "I thought your family..." she trails off looking away. "My aunt's. She's a squib." 

We reach the shore and we all climb out of the boat. Hagrid guides us to the train and we find a compartment. 

A few hours into the train ride, the trolly comes by. "Anything off the trolly, dears?" Peggy buys twenty pumpkin pasties, Eponine buys a box of Bertie Botts, and I buy five chocolate frogs. After she moves on I hear a familiar voice from the compartment across. "Lydia! What are you doing?" I remember the girl who I partnered with in the first week of Transfiguration. The girl who help me after Draco teased me. The first girl to buy our Halloween prank... Erika, her name was. I knew her from somewhere! I'm sure I do!

"Gamilla? You okay?" 

I push away the flood of memories of her, Erika, and smile at my friends. "Yep! Just thinking about our year!" "Oh, okay!" I wait a little until asking them, "Hey, do you guys know Erika? She's a Slytherin. I feel like I've met her before." They both shake their heads. "Oh well! I'll think of it eventually." 

As the ride goes on, I start to forget the sense of remembering Erika.

TIME SKIP!

Peggy, Eponine, and I get off the trail, our heavy trunks in trolleys. Two girls run over to us. "Peggy! Mum's waiting! Are these your friends?" Peggy nods. "Yep! Angelica, Eliza, these are Eponine and Gamilla!" I wave shyly and walk away saying, "Bye Peggy! Bye Eponine!"

I walk through the barrier and find Mr. Fudge waiting for me with a few Aurors.

 "Ready to go, Miss Stepien?"
