It was seven o'clock when Ginny was finally going down the stairs to the common room as she smoothed her hair that had to decide to be frizzy.
The whole school was in excitement today as everyone began to pack and went down to breakfast.
It was the last day of school, most people were in a rush to get everything ready but some people were smart enough to pack the night before.
Ginny however, was not one of those smart few, she had her trunk half packed and her hair would not go how she wanted it to.
She ran down the breakfast, when she saw Harry, Ron and Hermione, she went to sit next to them.
"Morning Ginny, can you believe, Ron and Harry haven't even packed yet" Hermione said rolling her eyes.
Ginny smiled, that figured, Hermione was one of the people who packed early "well, it will be their drama when they have to rush even more, I have half of my trunk packed and am doing the rest after I eat" she said.
Harry sighed "it wasn't our fault, we had detention with Snape because our potion exploded" he said sheepishly.
Ginny broke out laughing "what did you expect when you added to much boom slang" she said.
Harry glared mockingly at her for a moment before continuing with his breakfast, Ginny laughed more before eating.
At nine o'clock, Ginny went back up to her dorm and continued packing, the train was going to leave at eleven.

Once she was ready, Ginny and Hermione took their trunks down to the common room and waited for Harry and Ron.
Taylor had already left for the train, her and Ginny had hugged good bye and promised each other that they would write.
Suddenly, voices could be heard from the stairs to the boy's dorm before Harry and Ron came into view.
They went down to the train and talked about what the summer was going to be like, Ginny was a bit sad about Harry and his relatives who she found out were horrible.
They stepped on to the train and found a compartment at the back of the train, after putting their trunks to the side, Ginny looked out the window as the train started to pick up speed.
After a few hours, the compartment door opened to reveal Pansy and Daphne, they scowled at everyone in the compartment but smiled when they saw Ginny.
"Ginny, can we talk to you out here" Pansy said huffing slightly at everyone, Ginny stood up and walked out with them.
"Everything ok?" she asked, "yes, we just wanted to say goodbye in case we didn't see you at the station" said Daphne.
"And we wanted to make sure you were with Draco the first week so we could send you letters" said Pansy.
Ginny smiled as she hugged her two friends "Yes I am for the first week and we need to make sure to stay in touch" she said.
"Of course, we better go back to our compartment though, bye Ginny" said Pansy as she hugged her friend again.
"Bye" said Ginny as her friends walked back to their compartment waving at her, smiling, she went back into her own compartment.
When the witch with the trolley went passed they all brought some food and began to talk about quidditch as Hermione read.
"No Chudley Cannons are the best" Ron said loyally, even though the Chudley Cannons hadn't won a match in years.
Ginny snorted "Pudlemore United are even better than them" she said rolling her eyes as they continued to argue.
Once the train had stopped, they collected their trunks and said good bye and went to their families.
Ginny went to her Uncle Lucius who looked livid "were they your friends Ginny?" he asked in a cruel voice which surprised her.
"Yes, they are in Gryffindor" she said as Draco came to them, he looked uncaring as they walked out of the station.
"We will talk about this when we get back" Lucius said as he grabbed both her and Draco by their arms and apporated.

At Malfoy Manor, Lucius took Ginny into his study and began asking her questions about her friends.
Eventually Ginny couldn't take it and her anger rose "you were a Death Eater weren't you, I am not telling you about them" she said, her voice raised slightly.
"Yes I was, you are old enough to know now, life isn't all happy and sweet, things happen and you will tell me" he shouted.
"No, I can't believe you would follow such a cruel, sick, twisted freak like Voldermort" Ginny shouted.
Lucius scowled "you little brat!" he said as he smacked her across her face which sent her to the ground.
Ginny clutched her sore and quickly reddening cheek as tears prickled at her eyes, she looked up at her Uncle and saw him raise his hand again.
She felt blood trickle into her mouth from a cut on her lip, she was dragged onto her feet and his grip tightened painfully on her arm.
He dragged her to her room and shoved her in and closed the door, Ginny wiped the blood from her lip and wanted her Mother and Father to come back so badly.
(A/N I know that this chapter is shorter than the rest but I wanted to finish the whole first year tonight, I didn't like writing the last part so hopefully it isn't too terible, the next chapter will be the start of her second year, thanks for reading).
