Chapter 1: The Presents
Henna breathed out and back in. She stroked her dark black hair and looked in the mirror at her deep purple eyes. She had on a purple shirt with spaghetti straps, some bands on her arms, a blue denim mini skirt, and some purple uggs. She examined her flawless face and pale skin. She was thin and perfect. She the faintest sign of freckles and had what her mum called, "A peach like complexion." It meant she had perfect skin that sparkled and never got a problem such as a zit. She was wearing her purple velvet chocker that had a silver pendent that had a smaller locket under it. Inside was her family. Her mom, her dad, her, and her baby sister.
Henna looked nothing like her mum. Her mum had pale skin like her and flawless skin too. That was about it except for their similar hourglass figure. Her mum had crimped bleach-blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. Her little sister, Isabella, was a complete carbon copy of her mother, but at age 2.
Henna looked a lot her father but a lady and beautiful. Her father had the same black hair and pale skin. He had a fit body but was perfect like her mum. They got along perfectly and her mum had a long history.
"Ewww-Ohhhh!" Isabelle said as she crawled by the door. Henna laughed and found her best friend walking inside her big room.
"What's up?" She asked leaning against the wall.
"Just getting ready for school." Henna replied quietly walking over to Rose.
"Right. Hey, Lily and mum and Mrs. Ginny are down-stairs talking. Well, Lily is talking to mum. C'mon there all saying good-bye. Albus and James are down there talking with dad, Mr. Harry and your dad about Quidditch. Oh! Hugo got accepted to Durmstrang too. So, yeah." Rose told Henna. Lily was her other best friend. They had been best friends since they were born. Literally…They're 3 days apart each. Rose being the oldest, Lily being the second, and Henna the youngest.
"'Course." Henna said as they stomped down the stairs and onto the second level. The guys we're already down-stairs and loading the bags in the cars.
Lily whipped around and then ran and hugged Henna. Henna hugged her back tightly. "It's great to see you again!" Lily said.
"How was you're present?" Henna asked clasping her hands.
"Wicked! I loved it!" Lily replied grinning.
"And you?" Henna asked facing Rose.
"Of course! It was brilliant!" Rose replied.
Henna had given them both matching diaries that would talk back to you through ink. It had necklaces that opened them through charm. Henna pulled her purple charm. It was shaped like a broom. Lily pulled out her pink one and Rose pulled out her red one.
"Ready?" Henna's mother asked clutching a new edition of Quibbler.
"Of course luv." Henna's dad answered leading everyone out to the cars. Henna hopped inside her dad's car and buckled her seat-belt as her mother strapped Isabella into her baby car seat. Henna looked out the window.
'Hello!' Was written on the window with fog. Henna lowered the window and saw James standing there.
"Hey James." She said.
James had brown hair that was nicely cut and perfect. He had blue eyes that were deep and had hints of brown. His skin was pale and was a perfect fit shape. He used to have glasses but not anymore. He had a perfect face that was impossible to figure out.
"Hey. I really hope you get in Gryffindor." He said as his mother pulled him into his car. Henna waved bye to him.
Henna heard the rumble of her friend's parent's car and Lily's drove first, then Rose's, then her own. She watched as dust arose around the car as they pulled away from the Lovegood Manor.
She sighed and heard her baby sister giggling as Albus did peek-a-boo from the car ahead of them.
Henna pulled out her diary and put her key to it. They diary glowed then flipped open.
Dear Diary,
As my first entry I'll tell you about me and where I'm going. I'm an 11 year old girl. My name is Henna Violet Lovegood. My mom's last name is Lovegood but we kept her last name instead of my dad's. My dad's last name is Krum. Anyway, not that I care, but I'm a Pure-Blood. Well, mom says it's not that it's something not to be proud of, but it's not bad to be Muggle Born or A pure-blood. I have no idea but that means but if it's good, then alright. My favorite color is Violet. It's a little ironic, with it being my middle name and all, but I think that's why I like it… Anyway, we've just left my house, Lovegood Manor, and we're coming to The Train Station. I'm going to Hogwarts! Mummy said that when Isabella gets old enough, she's going to The Bobaton's School for Ladies. It's a wizard school just for girls. I was offered to go there, but I wanted to go to Hogwarts with Rose, Lily, and James. Albus and Hugo are going too! Daddy was thrilled about us going to those schools. Daddy went to Durmstrang. It's a school just for boys. Mum said that she's expecting a baby boy Dad was really exited and has a room ready and everything! Oh well, he said that Igor will be thrilled. Igor Kokroff if the Headmaster at Durmstrang. My godparents are Mrs. Ginny and Mr. Harry. My sisters are Mr. Bill and Mrs. Fleur. My brother's will probably be Mr. Ron and Mrs. Hermione. Oh well, we're here! Next entry will be at Hogwarts! I'm so exited!
Forever,
Henna…
Henna wrote as she closed her journal and locked it. She stuffed into her bag and then hopped from the car. Her father was picking up Isabella as she giggled and he tickled her stomach. Henna un-loaded her luggage from the back of the car as her mother found her ticket. Henna smiled at her parents as she pushed the cart a bit. Her bat looked around and then hung himself upside down and wrapped up in his wings.
"Now, I love you!" Her mother said kissing her on the fore-head. "I want you to be alright at school. So, remember, keep you're wand with you… don't let kids pick on you and look out for Gnargels!" She said hugging Henna.
"I will." Henna laughed.
"Hey sweetie. I want you to write every week! I'll come to every game that you play in! Remember, we love you." Her father kissing her on her fore-head and hugging her.
"Don't worry, I will. But, what if I don't get picked for the team?" Henna asked.
"Don't worry… you will. Plus… mw and your mother got you this… and this…" Her father said as her mum handed him two packages which he handed to Henna.
Henna opened the small one first. She gasped. Tales of Beetle and the Bard.—with commentary from Albus Dumbledore. It was the Limited Edition!
"Open the next one!" Her mother ordered smiling and hugging her father.
Henna tucked her new book under her arm and opened up the big one. She gasped and grinned as she held the item. It was a Cherry Wood Broom with Willow Tree sticks and Golden Thread Ties.
She bounced up and hugged her parents.
"Thank you! Thank you so much!" She said.
"You deserved it." Her father said.
"Now, you go to Hogwarts and you get on that Quidditch Team!" Her mother said smiling wider.
"I will!" Henna answered.
A clock chimed on her mother's watch. "Three minutes 'till the train leaves. You better go sweetie. But we'll write to you and send you things. And… We always love you." Her mother said.
Henna nodded and hugged them harder and kissed Isabella on the cheek.
"Love you! Bye!" She said as she ran through the wall with her luggage. She sat her presents on the cart too and clutched her ticket as she stepped onto the train and looked around at the carts. She saw Teddy, James, and Albus, laughing in one. They all waved at her as she walked by and waved back. About 11 carts later she saw Lily, Rose, and another girl. Henna opened the door and sat her luggage on a shelf and sat down beside Lily.
"Hey guys." Henna said.
"Hey." Rose said.
"'Sup." Said Lily.
Lily had straight auburn hair and green eyes. She had pale skin and some freckles. She had an hourglass figure and a perfect face.
Rose had some-what curly brown hair and blue eyes. Her eyes shone gray. She had an hourglass figure too and had pale skin. She had some freckles.
The other girl had straight black hair, pale skin, no freckles, perfect skin, black eyes, and hourglass figure.
"Hello… I'm Chang." She said.
"Hi." I said.
"Chang had no where to sit. Her mom was friends with my parents, and yours, and yours." Rose said.
"Cool. Who's you're mom?" I asked.
"Cho." She said. Henna's mother had mentioned Cho a few times.
"Cool" Henna repeated. A whistle sounded and the train lurched fore-ward. Smoke billowed by the windows of the red and black old 30's train. The Hogwarts Express was its name.
Henna turned her head as they rushed toward the window and looked and waved at the many parent's. Henna spotted her own and shouted, "Bye!" To them and waved and heard Isabella giggling and waving her small little fist with a pacifier in it. Henna laughed and watched as the train pulled out from the station and into the bright light and she saw trees running by the windows in brown and green blurs. The noise died down and the train became fairly quite.
