Miles Potter
Chapter: 2 The First Day of Classes
Miles woke up early that morning for he was anxious to start his fist day of classes. He peaked at his schedule. Transfiguration with the Hufflepuffs. Quidditch with the Slytherins he groaned. Charms with the Ravenclaws, and double Potions with the Slytherins again. What a schedule and only on the first day of classes. He quickly dressed in his robes and went down to the owlry to his parents.
Dear Mum and Dad,
I'm am doing fine. It's only the first day and were loaded with a busy schedule! I hope you and Spunky are doing swell.
Gotta run to breakfast,
Miles
He left the owlry quickly and went down to the Great Hall to meet Aimee and Joe. AS soon as everyone was there the house elves brought out the food. They hadn't done this for the first meal because they were on break still. They serves pancakes, and waffles. Bagels and cream cheese, and juice and milk. They had their fist lesson at 9:00 so they hurried though breakfast.
"I can't believe we have double potions with the Slytherins!" said Aimee as she studied her schedule.
"I know we'll have to put up with that rat Viper Malfoy." Said Joe.
"At least we have our first class with the Hufflepuffs that won't be that bad." Said Miles.
"Oh my gosh I forgot my parchment and quills!" said Aimee nervously.
"Oh let's all start crying," said Joe in a sing-song voice.
"Shut up Joe!" Said Aimee as she hurried out. "See you two at class." As soon as she left they realized they should be on their way to Transfiguration. They got up and clap their hands twice for the house elves to come and clear their plates and ran out of the room.

Later in Transfiguration they were all trying to make a pin turn into a pincushion. The closest Miles got was a piece of prickly cotton. Aimee's was worse. She was trying so hard but all she ever got was a thick squishy long thing. Professor Jenkins was constantly trying to get Jordan to aim his wand at the pin instead of the table. The class felt like it lasted forever to Miles and when they finally got out he was running to the next class. He loved Quidditch. He would always play with all the kids in the neighborhood. But this was different. He wanted to make the Quidditch team but he was nervous. They had to do this with the Slytherins. Viper would probably make fun of him but at least he had Aimee. She had the best comebacks.
AS they trudged out onto the Quidditch pitch hey saw that the Slytherins were already there making a big deal that they were late. Joe ran over a picked up a Racing Comet broomstick. They were the newest brooms of the year. Harry and Aimee had one too. They were blue with white and black stars all over it.
"What took you guys so long?" said a Slytherin girl named Melinda Connaly.
"We were held back by Professor Jenkins," said a fourth year named Alex Moore.
"Quiet everyone we have no time for this!" said the Quidditch captain. "My name is Pofferson Dessant. I will be teaching you all how to fly and the rules of the wizarding sport Quidditch."
"This could go on!" whispered Aimee to Miles.
"I know!" Miles whispered back.
"Potter, Krum? Are you talking."
"No," they both chorused.
"I hope not because your graded on participation."
Professor Dessant had to explain Quidditch to all the first years because he thought we didn't even know what it was. So we did that for 15 more minuets. Finally, they got they got to use their brooms. He wanted thew all to go up to the top of the tree's for the experienced ones and then circle down slowly. By the time the beginners had gone too they were all so bored they were actually looking forward to lunch.

"Thank god that was over!" said Aimee. "I practically died."
"Oh I know!" said I girl named Harp Wood. "I couldn't believe how long we had to wait!"
"I even knew all of the rules of Quidditch!" said Jordan.
"You guys we better eat fast because we have Charms with the Ravenclaws next," said Aimee.
"Yeah we better," said Joe. They both ate their lunch of fried chicken, rice, and gravy. For desert they had apple pie and drank mugs of butterbeer. They had to run all the way to Charms because they were late waiting for Aimee to finish her butterbeer. (Aimee is the slowest drinker you've ever seen!) They go to Charms just as the rest of the class started walking in.
Professor Gateway was a little fellow with rosy cheeks and was always jumping up and down with excitement. He would introduce himself and then go back to jumping merrily.
"Take out your books and let's going!" said Gateway happily. They all took out their books. Now I would…" Miles felt like he would die. Gateway was the kind of teacher that never kept your attention. He would start and get boring and then even more boring. They didn't even get to use their wands! Miles was so bored he was looking forward to Potions. But then when he thought about Malfoy he wasn't quite. They finally left Gateway's tiny classroom and headed for Potions.
Professor Starp was a nice fellow who was always looking for kids that were being proper to give them more house points. In the first 15 minuets Gryffindor had gotten 50 points! He told them to make a Sleeping Potion. They had to measure the ingredients into their cauldrons, and form there but it into a bottle. Miles had a great time in Potions for Malfoy didn't bother him at all, nor Aimee or Joe. They all poured the contents into the bottle that Starp had given them and placed it on their desks. Starp said they did such an excellent job that he would give each house 20 points.
When Potions ended they were all disappointed for They had all had fun.
"That was so fun!" said Miles as they were walking down the corridor to the Gryffindor House before dinner.
"I know," said Aimee. "Professor Starp is the best teacher so far!"
"I wish I could go right back to Potions!" exclaimed Joe.
"Me too," said Aimee as they climbed though the portrait hole and into the Gryffindor Common room.
"Umm… I'll see you guy's at dinner," said Aimee hurrying up the stairs to the girls dormitory. "I have to do something!"
"What?" said Joe and Miles together, but she had already disappeared up the stairs…
