Carrie's POV-
I stepped onto the red train that was billowing puffs of smoke. Off to Hogwarts. I transferred from my old school because of my parents new jobs at the ministry of Magic. Over the summer i have had meetings with the headmaster to try and make sure i settled in when i got there.
I had been sorted into my house, Ravenclaw by a weird old dirty looking hat. My uniform was to be blue and silver and to be honest i quite liked it. I edged past a group of hurried Gryfindor 1st years and looked into the crowded carriages. I noticed an open door towards the end of the train and made my way over to it. Inside I saw two boys having a heated discussion one with blonde hair snapped his head over to me quickly as if he was guilty of something. "sorry" i blabbed out quickly and slid the door completely closed. We stared at eachother through the glass for a moment until i realized what i was doing. I shook my head and turned around looking for an empty cabin.
In the end i gave up and slid into one that was occupied with just two girls. "Can i sit here? All the other cabins are taken." i half ask already sitting down. "Yes of course" replied the girl i was sitting opposite to. She nodded her head bouncing her blonde hair up and down. I noticed that she and the girl next to her were wearing the same blue and white uniform as i was. "Are you new here?" the other, mousy brown haired girl asked. "We don't normally get new students in so late as the 5th year." she continued to talk not even waiting for my answer. "I'm Luna Lovegood." the blonde one smiled, her blue/grey eyes looking into my own. "I'm Megan Cambell" said the other. " Carrie Houston" i smiled.
