AN: Hey I'm trying hard to post more!! Thank you to Secrets Within and blonde-with-her-moments for reviewing.
Last time: With a smile in Ginny and Draco's direction, she left their compartment and headed towards the front of the train as the train started to come to a stop.
Looking around them, even though it was well past midnight, they could see mountains surrounding the exquisite castle before them. Students from Sehr Gut were standing on the many steps leading up to the large mahogany double doors. None of the students had house or dormitory patches on their robes like many of the Hogwarts students still did. A young-looking woman dressed in hot pink robes started down the steps toward them. As she did so, the students began separating into different groups-about nine or ten total.
"Ah... Welcome to Sehr Gut School of Magic. I will keep you from a well-deserved rest no longer than necessary. I have been informed you already know which dormitory you will become a part of, so I will just say here, like in Hogwarts, your dormitory is your family. Dormitory one is here," she said pointing to the first group, "Please come stand with them-make friends. I promise they don't bite!" she said laughing at her own joke, "Group two is here," she said pointing to the next group of students, "I believe you can figure out which dormitory you belong to."
"Hi, I'm Ginny and these are my friends, Harry and Hermione, my brother, Ron, and my boyfriend, Draco." She said when they reached the dormitory four group, "We're in your dormitory!" she added brightly.
"Well, I'm Aurora. Is this everybody? I don't want to leave anybody behind." said the girl closest to Ginny.
"Er... I think it is." Harry said looking over the crowd behind them.
"Yes, it is." Draco said also looking over the crowd.
"Ok. Good. Well come on. Dormitory four this way please!" Aurora called over them.
The castle was bigger than Hogwarts with more staircases and ghosts than the Hogwarts students could imagine. Dormitory 4 went in a series of turns and passageways to arrive at a cherry-wood door with the words 'Dormitory 4: Welcome' written on a golden plaque.
"This is our dormitory. Here there is no need to remember a 'group' password. You just need to touch the lock and say your personal password. Just touch the lock and say what you want. The door will open long enough for one-and only one- person to go through the door. I'll wait for all of you to go through before I make my way in." Aurora said.
Hermione went first, "Angel."
"Also, incase someone else was thinking of using that password, you can use the same password as someone else just don't forget to touch the lock." Aurora said quickly.
After Harry (Quidditch), Ron (Pigwidgeon), Ginny (Kisses), and Draco (Penguin) said their passwords and went inside, they met a few other Dormitory-mates and waited for Aurora to tell them anything else they need to know. After everyone went in, Aurora came through the door.
"I expect you have met some of your other dormitory-mates. As you may have noticed we are all wearing green robes. That is because every dormitory has their own robe color. You will find your new robes in your rooms. They should replace your black ones- though you can wear them on holidays and weekends. Girls your rooms are labeled in the passageway to the far left. Boys, same to you, but your rooms are in the second passage way to the left. Have a good night!"
Hermione decided to go to bed and walked through her passage, only to find about forty different doors-each with little plaques on the doors. She walked about halfway down the hallway when she found her name on a door.
Hermione Granger and Ginivra Weasley
Room 18
She walked in and found two king-sized beds-one with a pastel blue bed and a purple wall behind it. The other had a hot pink bed and a pastel pink wall behind it. Not knowing which bed was hers, she went towards the pink bed-it looked like her own bed at home- and saw another plaque on the headboard:
Hermione Granger
Ginny stayed in the common room to talk to the guys a little longer before going to bed. About two hours of nonstop Quidditch talk, she decided to go to bed. Walking into the room she saw Hermione sitting on the pink bed and then saw a bed that looked like the one she had at home.
"How did they do this?" Ginny asked in awe.
"Do what? Oh, you mean how did they know what our rooms at home looked like? I don't know."
"Is everything in here ok?" Aurora asked as she stuck her head in the door.
"Um, yes. Aurora-"Hermione started.
"Please, call me Aura. That's what everyone else does."
"Ok. Aura, do you know how they knew what our rooms looked like?"
"Well, I think so. I think they send owls to our parents and ask them. But I've never had confirmation on that, every time I would ask, they just changed the subject; so I don't know for sure. Anything else?"
"Yea, is there a place I can get something to drink? I'm so thirsty?" Ginny asked.
"Yes," Aurora laughed, "Through the far right passageway you'll find make-shift kitchen."
"Thanks!" Ginny said jumping up and running out the door.
"Hermione?"
"Umm. Nothing I can think of. Are you down this corridor too?"
"Once again, yes. All girls are in this corridor. Do you two ever ask a question that I can answer no to?"
"Probably. Did you know Ginny and Draco used to be hated enemies?"
"Finally! No." Aurora said laughing, "I'm about four doors down. My name's on the door if you have any questions. G'night!"
"Good night."
About five minutes later Ginny walked in the door holding two Coca-Cola's in her hands.
"Do you have enough to last the night?" Hermione asked.
"Yes," Ginny said sarcastically, "Actually, I brought one for you."
"Aww. Thanks. That was so nice!" she replied just as sarcastically.
They stayed up until about midnight drinking coke and talking about anything and everything. Draco, Harry, and Ron laughing woke them.
"Wha-What are you doing in here?" Hermione asked as she became conscious of her surroundings, "Where are we?" she asked looking around her.
"We're in here to wake you two sleeping beauties up. And we are in Sehr Gut, remember?" Draco put on a falsely high voice, "'Studying magic in a foreign country. I love it!' Remember saying that?" he said smiling and walking over to a laughing Ginny.
"Heh-heh. Yea, now I remember." She said with sudden realization.
Kicking the guys out of their room, they quickly changed into their new LIME green robes.
"At least this is my color." Hermione sighed.
"Yea. Lucky you. My color is about ten shades off." Ginny said jokingly.
They left their room and went into the common room.
"Beautiful, as usual." Draco said as Ginny walked in the room.
"Please say you're talking to Hermione. I look horrible!" Ginny said with a grimace, "I would hate to have a boyfriend who lies."
"You always look beautiful to me." He said, smirking.
"After we have finished this lovely romance scene, can we go get some breakfast? I'm starved!" Ron said quickly.
"Ron, do you always have to think about your stomach?" Hermione asked.
"Yes-he does!" Ginny answered, giggling, as they walked out of the dormitory, following a few Sehr Gut students.
When they arrived in the dinning hall they noticed instead of a few long tables, like in Hogwarts, there were about a hundred smaller tables that could seat about six-to-ten people.
"Oh-My-Gosh!! This is just like in muggle cafeterias." Hermione squealed.
"What's a cafeteria?" Harry and Ron asked.
"A lunchroom, dining hall, a place where students eat in a muggle school." Draco said, surprising everyone around him, "What? I was tired of asking about everything Hermione said about the muggle world."
"Bitte! He is right. Hi, I'm Ariel," said a red haired girl who looked like she was a sixth or seventh year student, obviously a student from Sehr Gut, "I went to a few muggle schools before coming here. It adds a bit of home to those of us here from muggle families." She added thoughtfully. Hermione thought she looked familiar, like she was from some movie or something. Then it hit her-The Little Mermaid! Her name was Ariel and she had a green fin and red hair! It fit!
"Come on, I think we can fit a few more people at our table." Ariel said as she started walking away.
They walked all the way across the café to a very large table in the corner of the room with only about 3 people sitting around it.
"Hi guys!" Ariel said to the table, "Umm.. this is Will, Sara, and Bellatrix."
"Bellatrix!" the 5 said simultaneously.
"Yeah, I was named for my mom." She said quietly, "You should no that Draco."
Hermione turned her self to face Draco, her eyes showed she was ready to kill.
"How do you know each other?" she asked slowly.
A.N. Dun, Dun, Dun!!! I'm sorry it took soooo long for me to post but I'm back home now; so I should be able to post more than ever.
