BLYANA
It was my birthday and the day I had to pack my trunk, and leave my mom's house for good. Of course my mom forgot. Since my grandma had to go back home, she didn't celebrate it either. So I was just It was my birthday and the day I had to pack my trunk, and leave my mom's house for good. Of course my mom forgot. Since my grandma had to go back home, she didn't celebrate it either. So I was just on the couch waiting for a couple of hours to pass, already for the magical adventure today.
As I waited, I imagined the celebration of my birthday going perfectly, a party with all my friends at a pool. Decorations everywhere, baby blue and pink everywhere. A towering cake bigger than the pool, horses to ride in eleven acres.
Slowly the hours passed and I finally got to the hidden wall for me to run right through. There happened to be a line of people, I believe it was the Weasley family, and some other boy with extremely black hair. I still had a little bit of patience to wait.
I finally got onto the train with a bit of hustle in my walk, and to my surprise I found a place for me to sit.
"Is there room in here for me?" a small girl said as she placed her exceedingly packed luggage on the ground.
"Sure thing. Do you want some help with your luggage?" I said to the blond girl.
"Yes please." I helped her put her large luggage upon the racks above us.
"I'm Blyana but, you can call me Bly. What is your name?" No answer. I asked again. No answer. It was silent for a while. Was she def or something, I was saying this out loud, right?
Later a boy walked in and asked if he could join us. We said yes. It turned out that it was the same boy that helped me recover from my fall at Diagon Alley. Oh, the first day is always so so so… embarrassing.
"So, I never caught your name, princess clumsy." he gave me a ridiculous bow.
"Ha, I uh, my name?…" I rubbed my wrist, "my name is Blyana, bu-ut I guess you can call me Bly." I blushed lightly.
"And you are?" He gestured to the small blonde girl.
"Joselein." She didn't speak the rest of the way to Hogwarts.
"So, you excited for your first year at Hogwarts?" He asked the both of us, but Joselein didn't answer.
"I mean I guess, all I can do is imagine what it'll be like. Eating in the magical cultural hall and meeting all the ghosts in the castle, and getting new animal friends!" my face was now cherry red.
"Uh… yeah me too." I could see he was slightly blushing whenever he put his hand on his neck.
"Uh, you never told me your name." I said playing with my gold heart necklace, my grandma bought me from diagon alley for my sixth birthday.
"Oh, sorry, I guess I'm a little nervous for the first day of school. I'm Lucas. Nice necklace by the way." His face was reddened because of embarrassment.
"My grandma got it for me and Diagon Alley. Did you go to Diagon Alley and get your wand?" I asked Lucas. Lucas had curly blonde hair that totally went with his eyes.
"Actually, my dad is a wand maker, he made me the perfect wand, you wanna see?" He stood up to get into his luggage.
"I'll get mine while your at it." I said as I climbed onto the seat to reach my luggage.
As we sat down the train came to a stop.
"Well that's too bad we'll have to show each other later. Bye Bly." He gave me an adorable smile and zoomed out the door with his bags.
"Bye," I said almost fainting as he left.
"See you later lover girl." She gave me an unpleasant look and left.
"Ok." I said to myself gathering my things.
I walked alone after leaving my things in the compartment, with the others. Suddenly I saw toad hop in front of me. Unaware of who's it was I picked up the slimy creature. It immediately used its extremely strong back legs and jumped out of my hands and went towards the crowd of first years. I followed it into the crowd and lost it.
A light bobbed over the heads of the students, and the man attached to the light was shouting, "Fir's years, fir's years over here!" I quickly skipped along to where the man was standing, along with every other first year, but I did notice I was the only one skipping. "Come on, follow me. Anymore fir's years? Mind your step now, fir's years, follow me!"
As I got closer to the man with the light I realized that he was three times as big as any man. It was slightly intimidating, but he must be nice if he was leading the first years to the castle, right?
The giant man lead us down a narrow path in the dark. It was spooky without any light, and it made it difficult to not trip, especially for me. It was quiet as we made our way to wherever we were going, and it made it all the more eerie in the cold night.
"You'll get yer fir's sight of Hogwarts in a sec," called the giant man, "Just 'round this bend here." My imagination exploded, we were almost to the Hogwarts of many years of amazing discoveries and more to discover throughout our years of Hogwarts.
Suddenly, the narrow path opened up to reveal a big, black lake, and perched on a mountain on the other side of the mass of water was a huge castle with glittering windows and tall towers. I gasped at the beauty of the scene; Hogwarts was magnificent.
"No more than four to a boat," the big man shouted to all of us. I looked down from the castle to see small boats floating in the water. They weren't attached to any dock to keep them from floating away, so they must be magic! That was so cool!
I tried to carefully get into the boat at the very end, but I ended up tripping and landing face first inside. I stood up quickly and looked around to make sure no one was watching, and Joselein happened to be staring at me. The boats started to move forward towards the great castle as the big man looked like he was talking. No one else got onto the boat I was in. I guess I was the odd one out. The boats started to move all at the same time, my energy was going high, and we all know what that means. I stood up in the boat, the large man told me to sit down, but did I listen? No. The boat flipped, I was submerged into the freezing cold lake water. The coldness of the water didn't affect me due to my extremely high energy level. A red bumpy creature lifted me out of the water and the warm air pricked my now freezing skin.
I got dropped onto the shore, the boats were already across and the students were getting off the boats. I stand up sopping wet and the big man comes and walks up to me.
"Ya alright Miss?" The big man started to take off his extremely large fur jacket.
"Yeah, thanks to Bob." I patted the creature.
"Uh… you talking about that?" The big man pointed to the squid.
"Yes." The crowd of first years started to laugh
"Here ya can have ma jacket." The heavy jacket dropped onto my flimsy body.
"Thank you." I said in a muffled voice.
"Oi, you there! Is this your toad?" The big man suddenly asked as he picked up a green toad.
"Trevor!" A boy shouted as he ran to grab the toad from the giant man. Wait who's Trevor?
Anyways, the big man lead us down a hallway in the rock. Finally, we made it to a clearing of wet grass in the shadow of Hogwarts. We then made our way up stone steps that lead to the great front doors of the castle.
"Everyone here?" The man asked, "You there, still got your toad?" The man raised a huge fist and knocked thrice on the oak doors.
