Grandchildren
Chapter 2- Making Friends
I awoke to the rays of light dancing upon my eyelids. I turned over to look at the clock.
7:00am.
I guess I should get up because breakfast is in half an hour. I rose from the bed and looked around. To my right was Lily and to my left was Narcissa.
I got dressed in my slytherin robes. It was 5 past 7 when the rest woke up. I went to the bathroom with lily and we fixed our hair. Lily has soft, silky dark red hair with brown eyes. She put her hair into a pony tail and waited for me.
I figured that I should at least go and wake up Malfoy, Zambini and Crabbe. So I crept into their dorm and saw them snoring, sheets scrambled everywhere. I walked over to Draco and started to shake him awake.
"wake up, wake up Draco." I whispered, they were the only ones in their dorm.
I moved over to Crabbe. "wake up, wake up Crabbe. CRABBE!" I said and shook him violently. He didn't budge.
"zzzzz"
I didn't bother with Zambini so I just left.
I went with lily to breakfast in the hall. Most of the students were there.
After that we went to our first class: Transfigurations with McGonagall and Gryffindor's.
Great I'll be with my most hated 2nd cousin Ronald but I'll be with Seamus, Neville and Luna. I had become friends with Seamus, Neville and Luna before Hogwarts because we are family friends.
It was ¼ through the lesson and I was sitting up the front with a Gryffindor named Meredith Andre. Then a noise happened behind us a slam of the door. I turned around and it was Malfoy, Crabbe and Zambini, everyone in the classroom except for the boys knew that McGonagall was sitting on the desk as her Animagus: a cat.
"where's Professor McGonagall?" asked Crabbe. Then at that second Professor McGonagall changed into herself again.
" Bloody Hell!" Exclaimed Ron, he was sitting behind me. He clearly wasn't paying attention and was too engrossed at staring blankly at his sheet of parchment.
"well thank you for that examination Mr Weasley. And…?" McGonagall turned to the boys.
"we got lost" Malfoy said.
"well I suppose you won't get lost to find your seats then?" McGonagall turned to the front of the classroom and sat at her desk.
Draco and Blaise sat at the desk next to me and Crabbe sat next to Parkinson. Draco leant over to me and whispered:
"why didn't you come and wake us up?" he asked me.
"I tried I screamed at all 3 of you especially Crabbe but you didn't budge" I whispered back to him.
An hour later transfigurations finished. We then had Charms with Professor Flitwick and the Gryffindor's.
"welcome class. My name is Professor Flitwick and welcome to Charms" professor Flitwick explained. We were in a room were the chairs were in stands and also on the sides. I had to sit next Ronald Weasley and Draco Malfoy.
"now try this wrist movement: swish and flick" professor said while demonstrating swish and flick. We practise for 15 minutes until he silenced the class and began to speak again.
"now with you wrist movement we have just been practising. Now have you got your feathers?" he asked. I lifted up my feather to show him. "good and pronounceWingardium Leviosa" he said and we started to practice. I noticed Seamus Finnigan above and thought that this couldn't be good considering he and his grandfather do have the same name and also have a knack for accidently making things go BOOM!
"Wingardium Leviosa, wingardium leviosar" Ron said and start to flick his wand viscously.
"stop, stop, stop. You're going to take someone's eyes and besides your saying it wrong it leviosa not leviosar" I said to him.
"fine you don't if your so clever. Go on" he said clearly angry that a girl corrected him but im not just any girl im his 2nd cousin.
"wingardium leviosa" I said and pointed my wand at the feather and it started to levitate the whole class seemed to notice especially Professor Flitwick.
"well done Miss Potter" he exclaimed.
There was an awkward silence for everyone at aw then Seamus started to do the spell again.
" Wingard leviosa Wingard-" BOOM!
His feather blew up and I turned around and the feather landed on my head. Draco noticed and plucked it out of my hair. Parkinson, Crabbe, Parker and Munoz started to laugh at Seamus while Ron, Neville, Luna, Draco and I just stared at him.
"I think we're going to need another feather over here Professor" I said to Flitwick.
When the class finished I walked behind Ron, Seamus, Neville, Meredith and Luna.
"she is a nightmare honestly. No wonder why she doesn't have any friends. its leviosa not leviosar" Ron said impersonating me.
I walked past them and especially pushed past Ron. I stopped in front of him and said.
"well I could say the same to you. Do you think I like being your cousin and having to listen to your voice for the rest of our school years…no I don't you're pathetic" I said and stormed off as I walked off I hear Draco walk up to Ron and say:
"for your information Hermione does have friends and they are in her House too so she won't be alone" he said and followed me.
He caught up with me with Zambini, Crabbe and Lily following.
"thanks you didn't need to do that I mean I would have been fine with being alone" I said to them.
"well that's what friends are for" Malfoy said.
I went with the others to the Great Hall at lunch decided to write to my parents and grandparents.
Dear Mum and Dad,
I got into Slytherin!
I have made friends with Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zambini, Gregory Crabbe and Lily Evans. Lily kind of has Great-grandma hair when I saw a picture of her and Great-Grandfather James. She is a muggleborn Well I have had Transfigurations with Gryffindor's and McGonagall, then I just had Charms with Gryffindor's and Flitwick.
With love from your daughter,
'Mione Potter
I put the letter in an envelope and started to write to Grandpa Harry and Grandma Ginny:
Dear Grandpa Harry and Grandma Ginny,
I got into slytherin and instantly made friends with Scorpius' son Draco also Blaise Zambini, Gregory Crabbe and Lily Evans who is a muggleborn we all got into Slytherin. She looks somewhat like Great-Grandmother Lily Evans. Creepy I know.
We just had Charms and I was the only one who did the levitating spell correctly and I had to correct Ronald which also was bragging about me also Seamus Blew up a feather and it landed on my head, well please write me back.
With love from
'Mione Potter.
I finished writing them and left with Lily to go to the owlery and sent them off to 12 Grimmauld Place which is where Grandpa and Grandma have lived since 2005 and then to my house which is a couple of kilometre's down from the Burrow where the weasley's live.
