That morning I woke up, to more whispering. I left the headmaster's office with Professor McGonagall. Dumbledore said she was the Head of Gryffindor. She led me to a portrait of a fat lady. The lady asked "Password?" McGonagall said "Gumdrop." Which I assume was the password. She showed me the common room, and where I was to sleep. I found my bed, and laid there staring at the ceiling. I sat up in my new bed, and saw a girl on the bed next to mine. She had one ear bud in her right ear. She was staring at me intently. The girl had bluish black hair, and piercing blue eyes. We stared at each other for a minute. Then the girl said, "Finally I thought you were never going to wake up. Now who are you and what are you doing in our dorm? Cause I think I would remember seeing you lived here, for the last six years." I was taken back at her forcefulness.
"Um, I came here last night. I live here now. I'm starting school here."I said slowly. The girl smiled.
"Well, why didn't you say so? I'm Riley Hendon, and you are?" Riley said. I gave a small smile back.
"I'm Charlie Grace, nice to meet you." I replied.
"Well, Charlie the girls already went down stairs. Being the friend I am I should introduce you, let's go." She said and got up from her bed. She was wearing a Black Veil Brides t-shirt with dark blue jeans. On her feet she wore red converse. She looked so normal compared to my silk dress.
"Um, Riley I can't go out in this." I said gesturing to my dress. She scanned me up and down.
"No I don't think you could, but you do look great in it." Riley said.
"Thank you. Um, I don't have any clothes. Dumbledore is going to send them with the things I need for classes." I said. Riley looked horrified by the idea.
"Well, you could wear something of mine. Just until you get your own. Let's see." She replied. She went through the trunk at the foot of her bed. She pick through a lot of band t-shirts, till she found what she was looking for.
"Hah! Found it." She yelled loudly. She passed over a dark green shirt, dark blue jeans and black flats. They were normal compared to the rest of her clothes.
"Thanks Riley." I said with gratitude and went into the bathroom. Once I got the clothes on, I looked in the mirror. A girl with chocolate brown hair, and bright golden brown eyes stared back. Riley came in and hand me a hairbrush. She shook her head at me and waved her wand and she applied make up on me. It was just simple.
"You don't need much of it, you already look pretty." She said. She grabbed my arm and pulled me toward the door. We went down the steps I went up earlier that night, down to the common room. Riley still had a grip on my arm. It was starting to hurt. She pulled me toward a group of girls.
"Guys I'd like you to meet Charlie. She's are new roommate." Riley said to the group. They stared at me for a moment. Then a girl with vibrant red hair stepped forward and held out her hand
"I'm Lily Evans, nice to meet you." Lily had the most glorious green eyes, I have ever seen. I felt has if they could see my soul.
"Nice to meet you too, Lily. I'm Charlie Grace." I said and shook her hand. Then a girl with dirty blond hair and hazel like blue eyes.
"I'm Skyler. I was wondering who was the girl in the empty bed across from me was." Skyler said nicely. The last girl came forward.
"I'm Alice." She said simply. I think I like that introduction better. I nodded trying to remember all the names. I know there was only a few but hey I can't remember anything, who says I won't remember their names tomorrow. 'I'm so negative. 'I thought to myself. We all went downs stairs for breakfast. We sat down and got to know each other. I now that Skyler has a twin brother that doesn't look anything like her. I know that Riley likes music. Alice has a boyfriend named Frank Longbottom. Weird name if you ask me and that Lily says she hates James Potter, when it seems she really likes him. Oh and that James Potter is Skyler's twin brother. After that we were talking like we've now each other forever. We were half way through breakfast when four boys stumbled into the Great Hall, laughing their heads off. And three of those boys were the ones who found me last night. This is going to be fun.
