Chapter 3 – Rachael and Richard
Harry sat alone in the compartment. He decided to move over to the seat that Hermione was sitting in, so that he could look out the window. A minute later a tall, dark haired, brown-eyed boy along with a pretty, brown haired, blue-eyed girl, appeared in the doorway. Harry looked at them, he thought that they must have been about the same age as him, but he had never seen them before.
"Hi," the boy said, "I'm Richard."
"Hey, I'm Harry," said Harry
"Hi, I'm Rachael, and Richards' my twin brother. We were wondering if we could share this compartment with you as everywhere else is full up?"
"Yea sure," said Harry, staring at her, and he gestured a hand towards the empty seats.
"Thanks," said Rachael, and she sat down on the seat opposite Harry.
Richard took a seat beside Rachael.
"How come I have never seen you before?" Harry asked, not taking his eyes off Rachael.
"We transferred here from America. Our dad got a job at the Ministry of Magic and our mum originally comes from here so, we left our old school and our friends and we came here," explained Richard
"Ah right, well you will make loads of friends in no time at all. Mostly everyone at Hogwarts is friendly," Harry said, breaking his eye contact with Rachael as he turned to face Richard, "There are a few really horrible people but I'll tell you who they are later."
Harry returned his gaze to Rachael.
She caught him looking at her and she gave him a huge, sparkling smile
He smiled back at her. He would never have thought that one girls smile would brighten the rest of his day.
Hey
Sorry it took me so long to get this and the second chapter out but I'm just back from my holiday and the computer in the hotel didn't have Microsoft word so I couldn't write it.
It's my shortest chapter so far but I wanted to introduce Rachael and Richard into the story to see if they can help me make the story any better.
If anyone has any suggestions, to help make my writing better or anything, please let me know.
Lots of love
Sarah
