Chapter 1

Lauren's Pov

As I got on to the big red train that said Hogwarts Express I couldn't help but to think about all that has happened this summer from receiving a letter that said that I was magical,to visiting a magical place called Diagon Alley and receiving my wand and frankly I just can't believe it. I spot an empty compartment and walk in and close the door behind me as I pull out one of my favorite books.

I am snapped out of concentration when I hear a knock on the compartment door. I open it to see a kid with brown hair. Before I can say anything to him though he says, "Hi my name's Zack and I was wondering if I can sit with you?" "Sure" I replied. I stepped aside and let him bring his stuff in and and I closed the door once again.

We kept chatting about what we hoped to see when we notice a giant castle that looks like something out of a fairy tale. As we step out I hear a deep voice bellow out, "First years over 'er". I look over and see a giant with a shaggy beard leading every other kid that's around my age to the edge of a lake where these boats were.

After the boat ride we are taken inside the castle and lined up and went through our sorting. "Cross,Lauren". I heard my name called and walked up to a stool where there was a hat that was placed on my head as I sat started muttering saying, "I see you have a brilliant mind,but you are also very cunning,and desire friends,". After a few more seconds it finally shouted out, "SLYTHERIN". I removed the hat and walked over to the table where I guess the other Slytherins were as if the banner with a snake on it wasn't a dead give away.

I zoned out during the rest of the sorting until someone taps my shoulder. I look and see a boy with platinum blond hair he says, Hi I'm Draco Malfoy what's your name," "Lauren Cross". Before we can say anything else though a man which assume is the headmaster stands up and says a few things I can't bear to remember except for don't go to the third floor corridor unless you want to die and at the end of his speech he said "Nitwit" "Blubber" "Oddment" "Tweak". As if that was a signal or something food appeared on the table and we dung in.

After the feast we were shown how to get to our common room and the password in order to get I laid down in and was about to fall asleep my last thought was 'I think I'm gonna have a good time here'.
