Roses Sing

Chapter one

Aryanna sat alone in her new common room. She had just been sorted into Gryffindor. She had just transferred to Hogwarts from Salem in the US. Her father's business had spread to the UK and because he was the boss he had to move with it. She loved her father very much, but she never got to see him. Dumbledor had heard of her predicament and had sent a letter to her family asking her to attend his school. She would be entering into the 5th year and she was afraid she didn't know anything. Yesterday when she arrived she had been led to the school by a half giant named Hagrid who she became fast friends with, and when she got to the school she was led to Dumbledor's office. It was a wonderful room and she was awestruck. Dumbledor was a wise old man whom she adored. He placed the sorting hat on her head and so it sat for quite a while. She was beginning to be afraid it wouldn't sort her when it suddenly screamed, "Gryffindor!" She smiled and was led by Dumbledor himself to her new common room and given the password. After she got settled she went around to all of her new teachers and got all the latest homework. She worked all day yesterday on her work alone in the common room because everyone else had class. Today was Friday and she would be going to her first day of classes. She had heard the Defense against the Dark Arts teacher was awful and that the potions master was mean. Time to see if all of this was true.

Aryanna got up from the squashy arm chair in the corner and went back into her dormitory. She looked at herself in the mirror. She had waist length, silvery blonde hair that curled gently at the bottom. Her eyes were a dark chocolate brown. She was on the short side, only coming up to about 4 foot 11 inches and only weighing about 90 pounds. Her new uniform was crisp and clean. She went to her bed and grabbed her bag and then headed back into the common room. She checked the time, it was only 6:30. She sighed and went back to her chair in the corner. She dropped her bag and pulled out a book at random. Fantastical Beasts and Where to find them. She opened to a page on Trolls and started to read. She hummed a little and tapped her wand against her leg. She didn't notice a boy come down the stairs from the Dormitories.

Matt stopped short. Who was that? He had never seen her before today. He decided to introduce himself. He cleared his throat and the girl looked up. "Hi, I'm Matt, are you new here?" The girl nodded and her curls bounced. He wanted to say more but he heard footsteps on the stairs and his friend Will came bounding down. "Ready to go? I'm starving!" Will grabbed the collar of Matt's shirt and dragged him towards the portrait hole, the girl staring at them the whole time. Once outside Will let go of Matt's shirt. Matt straightened it out and then smacked Will in the back of the head. "Ouch, what was that for?" Will rubbed his head. "That girl was totally hot and I didn't even get her name!" Will laughed and threw his arm around matt's neck. "Well, you'll see her at breakfast won't you?" Matt rolled his eyes and nodded. "Let's go then, I'm starving." The two boys continued to the great hall. They took their usual seats and started grabbing at whatever food was there. A few minutes later their friends Harry, Ron, and Hermione joined them at the table and the Hall started to fill. "Well what do we have today?" Matt said to Harry who took out his schedule and checked. "Double potions and then Defense against the Dark arts." They all groaned at the thought of having to deal with both of the worst teachers at Hogwarts. Matt looked over and saw the girl from before come into the hall. Will looked over and saw him staring. "Well, call her over then!" Matt jumped and then nodded. He stood and crossed the hall to the lost looking girl.

Aryanna grabbed her bag and decided to go get some breakfast. She entered the great hall and wondered where to sit, she didn't really know anyone yet. She saw the boy, Matt, stand from where he was sitting. He crossed to her and asked, "Hey, do you wanna sit with us?" He gestured to the four others he was sitting with. There was a black haired boy with brilliant green eyes who smiled and waved, a red head who's mouth was full of food, a brunette who also smiled but couldn't wave because her hands were full of books, and the boy who pulled Matt out of the room earlier. He had dark brown hair and black eyes. Aryanna said, "Sure" and Matt grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the table. She laughed and let herself be led into a seat. She sat between Matt and his friend across from the black haired boy, the ginger, and the girl. Matt pushed her bag under the table and started to introduce everyone. "This is Harry," he said pointing to the black haired boy, "and this is Ron," pointing to the red head who was still eating, "And this is Hermione." He pointed to the girl who had finally put all her books away and had poured herself a large glass of pumpkin juice. Matt smiled and then remembered, "Oh and this is Will," he said pointing to the boy who had pulled him out of the common room. "Thanks for noticing." Will said, sounding annoyed. Aryanna giggled and then said, "My name's Aryanna Rose, I just transferred from Salem Academy." She smiled at them and then pulled the bacon towards her. "So, what's on the agenda for today?" She asked. Harry passed the schedule to her and she saw double potions and DADA first. "This should be fun." She said.

Well what do you think?
