Ashley's P.O.V.

I stepped out onto the platform and sighed. I was excited, of course. Who wouldn't be? I was going to spend the next seven years of my life at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! But it meant that a significant part of my life was over. The part with my friends. I would miss them more than anything else, including my parents. Vicki, Melissa, Mara, and Morgan had become like sisters to me over the summer. Sadly, we had known the next year would bring us apart. The secondary school in our area was, shall I say, a bit wacko. Okay, it was really wacko. I think they might have set a world record for most drug related problems. Each of our parents had decided that we would go to private schools. Sadly, they wanted to send us to separate schools. Plus, they were all boarding schools, so there was no chance of us seeing each other except for Christmas and Summer Holidays. I raised my hand to brush away the tears that had formed in my eyes. 'Great, I'm already homesick, and the train hasn't even left yet. This is going to be a long year,' I thought to myself. With any luck nobody had seen me crying. I heard a small mew from a cage on my trolley. "Sorry, Jassy, I can't let you out here. Maybe you can come out on the train," I told Jasper, my cat, as I walked towards the train. Suddenly, somebody grabbed my shoulder and clamped a hand over my mouth. I froze.

Yea it's short but I only want one P.O.V. per chapter. Please review and tell me if it sucked or not. But I already know it's short and I will try to avoid that in future chapters, so please do not comment on the length.

See ya!
