XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Chapter 5- First Night

Later that night, Hermione was lying in her comfy bed in her new home; The Gryffindor Tower. She relayed the days events over and over again in her head, smiling like crazy as she thought of the prospect of this new school.

She had met the headmaster, who was a very old and kind man, and even though Hermione was greatly in awe of him, she thought he was a little bit crazy. The headmaster had spoken to her about the school and its expectations and then he placed a worn out, old wizards' hat on her head, telling her she was to be "sorted".

The hat began to speak to her and it had been a little bit startling at first.

*~*FlashBack*~*

"Ah yes! Very clever, but very loyal and loving, You are a very hard one to place my dear! You would do very well in Ravenclaw, very well indeed. You are smart enough, quick witted and clever! But there is a lot of bravery and loyalty and you would be very calm under pressure! Very hard to decide, well lets make it: GRYFFINDOR!" the hat yelled out the last word.

*~*End FlashBack*~*

Hermione remember she had then been taken by Professor Mcgonagall, who was the head of Gryffindor house as well as deputy headmistress to the Gryffindor tower where she was now resting.

She had been told the password and taken into a very comfortable looking common room, with comfy over-stuffed couches and a large fireplace on one side. She had been led up to her room where she noticed all her things were already there and her bed was made up for her. There were 4 others beds in the dormitory, presumably for four other girls.

She had settled in and taken out a book to read until she was tired. All of her food was brought to her by house elves during the day. After a large dinner she curled up in her big bed and finished reading 'Hogwarts: A history" for the 2nd time.

**************************************************************************** ***

Hermione slept exceptionally well that night, considering her nerves. But when she woke up and realized where she was, the butterflies in her stomach were nothing short of a plague. She wasn't sure that she was ready for what this day would bring!
