The Next day I woke up early. I was so excited. My First day of classes! Cilla and Nyx were already awake talking about their families.
"--And two brothers" Nyx was saying, "they are all at another school in America. I was supposed to go to that school, but I was accepted here and since my parents came here they wanted me to come too. What about you?"
"I come from Ireland. I don't have any siblings, oh good morning Lily. Did you sleep well?"
"Yes thank you. Is Lizzy still asleep?"
"Yes, we're going to wait for her until we go down to the great hall. You want to stay with us?"
"No thanks, I think I'll go find Sam. See you later."
"Bye," they said together.
I quickly pulled on my favorite robes, grabbed my books and ran down the dormitory stairs. Sam was already in the common room showing Lawrence how to play wizard chess. He didn't seem to get that he had to have authority over the pieces, because they kept moving place other than were Lawrence wanted them. I went up to them.
"Hey guys! Did you sleep well?"
"Not now Lil." Sam was staring at the board with his head in his hands. He moved a piece. "Checkmate! Ok now what did you say?"
"Did you sleep well?"
"Well yes as soon as he stopped snoring. Me and Nat had to hit him with pillows." Lawrence looked embarrassed. "Your hopeless at this game Lawrence. Almost as bad as Lily. Well maybe not THAT bad." I punched him in the shoulder. "I have already beaten him FIVE times and we have only been up for 15 minutes!"
"How about we go down to breakfast? I'm sure my incredibly nice, caring, and thoughtful brother will show us down." I raised my voice at the end because Sirius was walking by.
"Ok I'm in a good mood, but you better pay attention, I might not feel so generous tomorrow"
At break fast I wolfed down eggs, bacon, and home fries, I could definitely get used to this kind of food.
"You know Lily, Don't get used to this food, it's usually cereal. Its just that today is the first day of classes." Remus informed me. Darn I thought. I bet Sam two Knuts that I could get to the DADA classroom before him.
"You're on!" We jumped up from the table and walked to the doors. Since neither of knew our way we were allowed to ask one person, but only one. So we took opposite corridors, and I flagged down the first person who looked like he knew were he was going.
"The DADA classroom? Of course I know were it is. Go straight down this corridor, and then take the second left. You should end up in front of a staircase. Go up the staircase, take a right then follow the suits of armor." I thanked him and left.
These instructions didn't sound to difficult to follow only he forgot to mention a few things. First there was the trick stair which was halfway up the staircase. I had heard my parents talk about these, but it was only my first day, I didn't know where they were. I was caught for about five minutes. Finally a girl with blonde hair came by and pulled me out. The other thing that the boy who gave me directions forgot to mention was about the suits of armor. I figured he meant follow them to the end of the hallway or something. They led me around the whole first second and third floors! I could have sworn I had passed the same painting a few times. Finally I found a classroom with the words Defense against the Dark Arts painted across the closed door.
I peered through the window. The classroom seemed deserted so I opened the door and walked in. Sam hadn't gotten there yet. Two Knuts for me, I thought. I took a seat in the front row and waited for Sam. He arrived a few minutes later.
"I…ran…into…peeves…annoying…thing" He gasped out. "I…had…to…run… to get…away."
I laughed and made him pay up. As more people arrived the conversation turned to who the new DADA teacher would be.
"I heard it was someone really qualified," said A hufflepuff girl with a bossy voice.
"Well I head that it was a ghost"
"I heard that that it would be a hag"
"You guy are all wrong. Susie told me that she heard Bob telling Jason that Professor Wintorna had said that it was Dumbledore."
The claims kept getting more and more outrageous, until the door know clicked and everyone ran to find a seat. The door opened and everyone held their breath but…
It was only Lawrence. Everyone let out their breath together. "Hi guys, I got lost, sorry I'm late. Is the new professor here?"
"No," said a hufflepuff. Lawrence sat down in a seat next to me. A quiet chatter filled the room again. The minutes ticked by.
"He's late." Sam said looking at his watch.
"How do you know it's a he?"
"Well I don't but whatever Lily. It doesn't matter. She's late. Happy?"
The doorknob clicked again and everyone stared at the door. In walked Professor Wintorna.
"You're the new DADA teacher," Cilla said with an emphasis on your.
"No I'm not. I'm here to tell you that the new professor is here but this will not be his room. He will meet you in a different room which I am to show you."
"See Lily," Sam whispered, "It is a he." We followed Wintorna down corridors, up staircases, through doors and tapestries. Finally she stopped in front of a room with the words Defense Agains painted on it.
"They haven't finished painting the name on the door yet." Wintorna explained. "Now in. He'll be here shortly."
We all walked in whispering to each other. The classroom was mush nicer inside that the other one. The desks were in rows in front of a desk, which had a blackboard behind it. The sun shone through the windows making the room extremely bright. No sooner than we had all taken seats did the doorknob click once again. In walked…
A/N: The suspense!!! OK, it's not even that exciting. Your probably picturing some extremely great person that no one was expecting to walk in, it's not that great. I like who the teacher is but I don't know if you will. Please Review!!!!!
