*September 1st*

I wake up at the burrow and get my trunk. I grab Rocky's cage as well, and take them both downstairs and outside to the car.

I go back inside and see everyone coming downstairs with their trunks and pets. After a very rushed breakfast, Molly and Arthur drives us all to Kings Cross Station.

When we get there, we were running a bit late. We had 5 minutes to get on the train before it left. Fred and George run through the barrier, then Percy, then Ginny, then Arthur and Molly, then me.

Harry and Ron were supposed to be right behind us, but when I checked, they weren't there. I get on the train as fast as possible and look for an empty compartment.

I find the compartment that Ginny was sitting in and sat down across from her.

"Thank Merlin we made it on time" I say.

"I know right. I was worried we'd get here by the time the train had left" Ginny says.

"Same. So are you excited about Hogwarts?" I ask.

"Yeah. Just a little worried about making friends" Ginny says.

"You're a very nice person, anyone would be lucky to have you as their friend" I  say truthfully.

"Thanks. You're a great friend too, no wonder you've got a big friend group" Ginny says.

"Actually, before Hogwarts, I didn't get along with many people because I was different than other muggles. I now know the reason why Harry was the only one who wanted to be my friend, he was different too" I say.

"Were the muggles mean to you?" Ginny asks.

"A lot of them were, yes. They treated me differently because they considered me a freak" I say.

"Why'd they think you were a freak?" Ginny asks.

"Whenever I got really mad about something, weird things happened. So I don't blame other kids, especially muggles, to be afraid of me" I say.

"You have an older brother right?" Ginny asks.

"Yes I do" I say.

"Why hasn't he been coming to Hogwarts then?" Ginny asks.

"Well, he's not my actual brother. I was adopted by my family" I say.

"Oh. Do you think your biological parents were wizards too, then?" Ginny asks.

"All I know about my biological parents is that my mother died in labor and my father wanted to keep me, but was arrested. For all I know, they could've been" I say.

I look out the window, now thinking about who my parents could've been. My thoughts got interrupted, because I saw the Weasley's flying car out the window.

"Ginny, by any chance, do you see your fathers flying car too?" I ask, making sure I hadn't gone mad.

She looks out the window and says "yeah I see it too."

The car door then opens and Harry almost falls out. "Harry!" Me and Ginny both say.

Please let him be ok. Please let him be ok.

Ron grabs Harry's hand and pulls him back into the car.




*Hours later*

The train comes to a stop, and me and Ginny leave our compartment.

"Ginny go over to Hagrid, all the first years have to" I say.

"Alright, see you inside" Ginny says.

"See you" I say, waving to her.

I start walking over to the carts and sit in an empty one. Hermione comes over and sits in the same cart.

"Where's Harry and Ron?" We ask in unison.

"I thought they were with you" I say, thinking they caught up with her after landing the car.

"No, I haven't seen them. I figured they'd be with you" Hermione says.

The carts start moving towards the castle. Me and Hermione walk to the great hall and sit at the Gryffindor table.

Where are Ron and Harry?

After a few minutes, the first years are brought into the great hall as well. The sorting starts. I looked at the staff table and realized that Snape was missing.

That's odd.

I wasn't  paying attention until Ginny's name was called. She walks up and sits on the wooden stool.

The sorting hat gets placed on her head and it says "Another Weasley?! This better be the last one! Let's see... GRYFFINDOR!"

I clap along loudly with the other Gryffindor students, as Ginny walks over and sits at the table.

The feast begins and food shows up on the plates in front of us. I eat quickly, just wanting to get to my dormitory and go to bed.

I finish eating and walk to the portrait of the fat lady. "Password?" The fat lady asks.

"Pigsnout" I say.

The portrait swings open and I walk into the common room, I saw Harry and Ron sitting on one of the couches.

"There you two are! Where were you?" I ask.

"The barrier closed on us for some reason" Ron says.

"And we got detention for coming to school in a flying car" Harry says.

"Sounds like a rough night. You missed the sorting, but Ginny's in Gryffindor" I say.

"Not very surprising" Ron says.

"Anyways, are either of you trying out for quidditch this year?" Harry asks.

"No" Ron says.

"I might. I'm not sure if I want to or not" I say.

"What position would you try out for?" Harry asks.

"Chaser" I say.

"You should try out. You'd be good at it" Harry says.

"Alright, I'll try out for the quidditch team" I say.

Hermione comes into the common room and asks "Where were you two?"

"They couldn't get through the barrier and got detention" I say.

"Oh. Well, it's getting late. We should get to our dormitory y/n" Hermione says.

"Alright I'm coming. Goodnight Harry and Ron" I say, walking up the spiral stairs.

"Goodnight" they both say. Me and Hermione find our dormitory and unpack our stuff.

I go to bed after unpacking.
