A/N: I know it's a short chapter, but I started writing this about a year ago, before I knew much about writing fanfictions. The second chapter's about the same, but they will get longer as I go. R&R!
Chapter 1
Finally There
I'm so happy; I'm finally going to Hogwarts! Ever since Mom and Dad first told me about it, I couldn't wait to go there. It sounds like it's an amazing place! I can't wait to see what makes it such an exciting place! I also hope I get into Gryffindor! I think that since all of my family has been in Gryffindor, I have a greater chance of being placed in there as well. You have to be brave to get be in Gryffindor and I am. I'm going to let the sorting hat know that I don't want to be in Slytherin. I heard that they are kind of mean to everyone and I don't want to be known for being in a house where everyone will assume I'm mean. Plus, I don't want to give my family a bad name.
The only thing I don't like about going to Hogwarts is leaving Mom and Dad. I will miss them so much. I mean, I may have had to stay with Nana and Granddaddy for a few weeks before, but I've never had to stay anywhere for almost a whole year. At least James and Albus will be there as well. I just hope they don't get overprotective of me. I remember Mom telling me about how Uncle Ron was always overprotective of her when they were both at Hogwarts. I mean I don't mind if they're a little protective of me once in a while, though, I would never tell them that, but they both know that I am very independent.
Another thing that I worry about is being labeled because of my dad. Just because I'm Harry Potter's daughter doesn't mean I'm like or ever want to be exactly like him. I'm also Ginny Weasley's daughter, but I don't want to be exactly her either. I want to have my own identity. I would, however, like to be a little more like my Grandmother Lily was. Unfortunately, I'm a little more like my dad and Grandfather James were. I tend to get in trouble a little more easily. I will, however, try to control that tendency while at school.
I hope I like my professors. James and Albus said that some of the professors are mean, but I know they're only saying that to try and scare me. I don't know why they told me that though. Do they think I'm dumb or something? They both know that I'm smarter than either of them will ever be! Boy, are boys dumb! I can't wait to see Neville, I mean Professor Longbottom, again. He is one of the nicest people I know. I just wonder how he became a professor.
Well, Mom and Dad are ready to go. I hope I do well in my classes. I also hope to have an adventure! Maybe I'll make some really good friends who will want to go on an adventure with me! Maybe there's even a deep secret that only people who lived a long time ago knew about.
