"Lillyyyyy do you know where my all-black converse are?" I asked as I pranced out of the shower while pulling on my fluffy white robe. "URG NOT NOW CECILIA ANDREWS." A mass of blankets yelled along with a string of profanities. "Awwww come on Lily I'm sure you're anxious to see your stalker one Mr. James Potter." Suddenly I ducked as a pillow soared over my head "Well fine but if you're not up in 5 minutes I'm getting the bucket of cold water." Lily then jumped up and ran into the shower. Ha! I thought to myself serves you right for last week. Anyways in case you're wondering who I am my name is Cecilia (Cece) Andrews and I moved here to Britain from Hawaii with my sister so I could attend my 6th and 7th year at Hogwarts! Lily and I have been friends since FOREVER hence the reason why she's staying at my house right now. After putting in my contact lenses (Cuz glasses SUCK) *** An- sorry if you wear glasses and you got offended… it was not my intention*** I hurried downstairs were my sister Sarah was sipping coffee and after saying a quick good morning to her (she's not a morning person) I started frying pancakes. "Hey Sarah how are we getting to the Station?" I asked. "Well first we're taking a portkey and then driving the rest of the way." Came her reply. Sarah's 19 and an adult and since my mom is absent and my dad passed away, Sarah is like my parent. Nodding my head, I began to mentally check off everything that I had packed. Like let's be real here, I'm honestly SUPER excited for Hogwarts. Not only because it's amazing but because earlier in the summer I was sorted into Gryffindor which means that I'll be in the same dorm with Lily. "Cece your pancakes are burning." Came my sister's voice which interrupted my thoughts. "WHAT NO NOT MY PANCAKES!" I exclaimed as I grabbed the somewhat crispy pancakes off the frying pan and tossed them on a plate. Sighing, I closely examined my pancakes and realized that they weren't really that bad- only slightly burnt. After making sure my pancakes were okay, I headed upstairs to see Lily getting changed and after setting down the plate, I opened up my closet and looked at the outfit I had left out- It was a simple navy blue sweater with one of those alien logo thingys and a pair of slightly ripped jeans
Then I threw on my low top black converse and stared at myself in the mirror (I'm not vain I promise) I'm about 5'2 and curvy, but thankfully not in a chubby way. I have long curly blonde hair and with my tan skin you're probably thinking that I look like a Californian beach babe, but my eyes ruin the picture. For some weird reason I got olive green eyes that are about the same shade as puke. I saw Lily studying herself in the bathroom mirror-she's about 5'5 and has long red hair with a bold temper to match. Although Lily and I are best friends, I'm pretty jealous of her because she's so naturally beautiful. Anyways after eating my pancakes and making sure my outfit looked FRESH I did my makeup which consisted of some foundation to cover up any blemishes and some mascara with lip gloss. "CECE, LILY YOU HAVE TEN MINUTES." Came my sister's voice from upstairs. "I still have to dry my hair." I said and Lily said "Same." So I walked into the bathroom while Lily went into my room and started blow drying my hair. Egh I can't wait until I can use magic again. Without it my hair basically looks like a lion's mane.
Then, Lily and I headed down the stairs with our luggage and my sister held out an old can and we all touched it and with a lurch and a stomach-tightening feeling, I was transported. Looking around, There was an AMAZING car on a hill and as both my sister and Lily appeared next to me, I screamed "I'M DRIVING." As Lily yelled "SHOTGUN." And my sister yelled "FUCK." Lily and I grinned at each other and ran towards the car. After maybe 15 minutes of me speeding and laughing manically, while Lily and my sister swore up a storm, We pulled up next to the entrance of King's Cross Station. Lily opened up the door and would've probably kissed the ground if she had not seen a kid with glasses hanging out with some other people.
