The Commencement
Zoë's POV
Ohh god I start at a new school tomorrow. Will they like me? Or will I be a loser? I wonder if there are any hott guys there. Or are they just ugly and mean like Todd and his stupid girlfriend Sydney who is obsessed with making everyone's life miserable. She used to be my best friend, until I was 11. She got popular. She's a Squib. Who cares about her now? She's in America. In my old school, Varneighcess School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I better not think anymore. It's 11:23 and I have to wake up early..
The Next Morning
The next morning Zoë's mother knocked loudly at the door.
"Sunshine, wake up! It's time to get ready!"
Zoë rolled over and pulled the covers over her head and grunted. Argh.I gotta get up but I don't want to, she thought. She lay there for a minute then sat up rubbing her eyes. She opened her eyes and looked to see if her dad had taken her stuff to the car. He did. She moved to the edge of her bed and stood up. She yawned and stretched and headed for the door. Her pace was slow and wobbly, just before she got 2 feet from her door her dad opened the door and snapped a picture.
"DAD!" She yelled.
"What hunny? I just wanted a picture."
"Its 6:30 in the morning okay! I don't want to be up. If you get those pictures developed I'm burning that picture! I look like ick I don't even wanna think about it.."
"Aww I'm sorry hunny. Mommy is making pancakes. Hannah and Tyler are already up. I believe Hannah is just getting in the shower."
"Great, it's 6:30 in the morning and my family is scrabbling about like mice getting chased by hooting owls or something... Great." She mumbled.
"I'll be in the kitchen, get your clothes ready so you can hop in the shower when Han gets out."
She stood up straight and saluted her father. "Sir yes sir, I will be the one to take the fastest shower yet and I'll even clean the shower." She said with sarcasm.
"Alright little sergeant!" Her dad mocked back. "Like I said I'm heading to the kitchen." He quickly turned around and headed down the stairs.
This sucks. Zoë moved to her drawer and pulled out a pair of jeans and a yellow t-shirt. She would change into her robes on the train.
She put her clothes on her bed and went downstairs to eat breakfast. Hannah could take a while. She walked in the kitchen to find her mom, dad, and brother sitting at the table eating pancakes, eggs, and bacon. Her mother was standing over the stove with her wand.
"Morning, sweetie. Did you sleep well?"
"Yeah, until SOMEONE woke me up!" she joked.
"I know, I'm such a bad mother."
"You know I love ya, "she said with a smile.
"So, Zoë, I heard about the picture Dad took of you. I personally can't wait to see it," Tyler said.
"Shut up." She said sitting down with a plate of pancakes and bacon. She was just finishing when Hannah decided to waltz down from the bathroom.
"Good morning everyone," she said with a grin.
"Finally," Zoë said under her breath. "I'm going to go take a shower now. I just hope there is enough hot water for me after you, Hannah Banana."
"Don't call me that Zoë!"
"I'll call you whatever I want, hun. I am older and stronger than you."
"Girls, quit your bickering, I don't want to hear it this morning," their dad yelled.
"Fine," Zoë said while walking up the steps. She got her clothes off her bed and went into the bathroom. After she took a cold shower (thanks to Hannah), she dried her hair and brushed her teeth. She went back to her room where she found Hannah.
"Hello Hannah Banana. Guess what, there wasn't enough hot water. You wait dear sister, until you least expect it when I'll get you back," she said with an evil grin. She wouldn't do anything to hurt her sister, but she would definitely do something harmless to mess with her head a little.
"For the last time, Zoë, don't call me Hannah Banana! And it's your own fault for not having hot water. You're the one that didn't get up early. You know I take long. So just leave me alone!" Hannah said angrily. Hannah stormed from the room slamming the door behind her.
Zoë decided to just stay in her room to let Hannah cool off for a while. She knew not to get in her way when she was this mad. She needs to control her temper, she thought.
Later
A few hours later, they were on their way to King's Cross. Hannah kept muttering under her breath about Zoë while Zoë tried to learn briefly about muggle cameras from Tyler. Well actually, Tyler was just rambling on and on. Their parents were just talking about the weather. Old people, she thought.
They got to King's Cross just in time. Zoë watched her brother and sister say good bye to her parents and then it was her turn. "Bye Mom, Bye Dad. I love you! And I'll miss you. I'll send you an owl when I get there," she said while giving them both hugs. She stopped and turned around as soon as she got right in front of the barrier between platforms 9 and 10. She waved and walked right through the barrier.
