Best Friends

First Day!

*Next morning*

I wake up and get dressed into my uniform. I walk down to the great hall for breakfast. I sit at the Gryffindor table and wait for Harry and Ron.

They didn't show up to breakfast, so I make my way to Transfiguration so I wouldn't be late. I am assigned to sit next to Hermione.

I shared a dormitory with her and realized that she wasn't as rude as she seemed on the train. She was just lonely and liked reading. I open my Transfiguration book and start reading the page that Professor McGonagall assigned for today.

Professor McGonagall transforms into a cat and sits on her desk. A couple minutes later, the doors to the classroom burst open. I turn my head and see Ron and Harry running in.

"We made it! Can you imagine the look on old McGonagall's face if we were late?" Ron says.

Professor McGonagall then jumps off the desk and turns back into her human self.

"That was bloody brilliant" Ron says.

"Thank you Mr Weasley. Perhaps I should transfigure you and Mr Potter into a pocket watch. That way one of you might be on time" McGonagall says.

"We got lost" Harry says.

"Perhaps a map then? I trust you don't need one to find your seats" McGonagall says.

They both sit down at their desk and I go back to reading the book.

*Potions*

In potions, we didn't have assigned seats, so I sat next to Harry. A couple minutes later, the door bursts open and Professor Snape walks in very dramatically.

"I don't expect you to appreciate the art that is potions. But I can teach you how to bewitch the mind, brew fame and glory" Snape says.

Harry starts writing what Snape says on a piece of parchment.

"Or maybe some of you have come here and have the nerves to not pay attention" Snape says.

He was glaring at Harry, so I tap Harry's shoulder. Harry looks up.

"Mr Potter, our new celebrity" Snape says.

Professor Snape then asks Harry questions that he didn't know the answer to. Hermione's hand shot up on every question.

Harry is not having great luck today.

*Flying Lessons*

Our first flying lesson was outside. The class was separated into the lines standing across from each other. Broomsticks were laying on the ground in front of us all.

"Good afternoon students" Madam Hooch says.

"Good afternoon Madam Hooch" everyone says.

"Welcome to your first flying lesson! Now step up to the left side of your broom" Madam Hooch says.

Everyone steps up to the left of the broomstick that was laying in front of them.

"Now, hover your right hand over your broom and say 'up!'" Madam Hooch says.

I hold my hand out over my broomstick and say "up!"

Everyone else was doing this as well. Harry's broomstick flies into his hand before anyone else's does.

After a few tries, my broomstick flies up to my hand. After everyone was holding their brooms, Madam Hooch says "now I want you all to mount into your brooms."
