"Attention everyone," Then everyone turned to see Dumbledore "Thank you, as you know we have a new student from America!"
Everyone listened, he continued, "Well, she was born and raised here but her family moved to America because her father has an important duty. Everyone, this is Erica Carson, and I want everyone to give her a warm welcome!" Everyone clapped as hard as they could. Especially Sirius, he clapped so hard, that everyone complained about their eardrums getting damaged. "She went to Bellextay, a witchcraft and wizardry school in Northern America, she will be sorted now."
She sat down on the Sorting Stool, and then Professor McGonagall put the Sorting Hat on Erica's head. I heard the Sorting Hat say," Difficult, you are from a pure blood family, you are pretty smart... Hmm. oh, you've got the bravest mind here, so better be..... GRYFFINDOR!" the hat shouted
Everyone cheered and partly groaned. I guess she was pretty popular for the boys!
She came down to join us, we ate breakfast and joined went to our classes.
Erica is going to share the Gryffindor dormitory, and she is now used to the uniform.
I heard Sirius saying, "You're cute, can I go out with you?"
And Erica replying, "Sure,"
But I don't think she know that he's an evil, mischief, prankster!
October; at the Great Hall
"OMG, it's already Hogsmeade weekend," Amber squealed with delight, jumped few times, and then made a long list of what she's going to do and buy.
We all squealed, and the boys rolled their eyes. I don't know why Erica does this, but she likes Sirius, and Sirius likes Erica. Oh, I know Sirius; he dumped every girl in his 3rd year.
I don't want him to dump Erica... It will make her feel that she really hate this school, Hogwarts.
Everyone was eating; James and I were talking about the Halloween feast. We became close friends. I never thought of that me and Potter going out.
"Lily, can you go out with me?" James asked with his puppy dog eyes
"Aw... Sure!" I awed, and touched his cheeks, played with his hair... Everyone gasped
"Did I hear Lily Evans right?" Sirius asked, shockingly
"Why?" Erica asked, questioningly
"Because, Lily hated him for being alive!" Sami said, she also was shocked
"I said, sure, so get over it!" I said, madly
"Okay..." They muttered
I never felt this way before, whenever I see James, I feel like to smile, and be with him...
"Hey, Sami, can I talk to you, privately?" I asked
"Okay,"
We went out of the Great Hall, and then we went in a dark corner.
"I think I like James, he is mature...and besides, he can be a little annoying but, cute!"
She laughed, "Okay, everyone likes James..."
Then she realized what I just said
"That's great news; I'm going to tell them!" She said
"No, Sam, I'm going to tell James and then when we go to Hogsmeade together they are going to be shocked," I paused then said "then you can tell them"
"Okay," She said
"Oh, yeah, you still have your bikini right? I'm going to invite all of our girls to my dorm to have a Jacuzzi party, but I have to invite 2 at a time," She giggled "I'm going to invite you and James
"Awesome, I'm going to tell that!"
"Fine" I replied
So we finished the dinner. James and I went to the lion statue, and then said, "Gummy Eels" the new password.
"James, can I tell you something?" James looked at me with his cute eyes
"What?" he asked
"Lean closer to me... And then I'll tell you" I said, he leaned closer to me. I can feel his breath, "I think I like you too" I whispered
"OMG, I like you too!" He said
"You told me in the beginning of my life, Potter..."
"So, are you going to be my girlfriend?"
"Sure," I said, dreamily. I smooched on his cheek, and then he smooch me back
"And, one more thing, bring your swimming trunk, Sami's bringing hers too," he grinned then tried to kiss me, but I moved away "meet me after, bye!" I waved
3 minutes later, James came in, and then 3 minutes after that Sami came in, with her cloak on.
"Okay, then... to the bathtub," We all went to the bathroom. We took off our cloaks, so we can see our swimming suits; Sami had a red bikini, I got a green one, and James got the same swimming trunk he wore for the summer.
"Hey, it's not the same one that I saw during the summer?" James said
"Oh, I have 18..." I muttered
I turned the water, the bubbles, and the steams. I was between Sami and James. We all sighed as a relaxation.
I leaned against James's shoulders, he sighed again, but this time, a sad one.
"What's wrong?" I asked
"Moony, next week's full moon," He said "Good thing it's not on the feast,"
"Oh, right," I said "hey, did anyone told Erica about us and Remus?"
"Uh... No..." Sami replied.
"Okay, it's our last year anyways..." I said, still leaning to James
We stayed in the tub for like an hour.
"Samantha, when are you going to get a man?" James asked
She sighed "I don't know, someday someone will come to me,"
I stopped leaning. I straightened myself and saw what time it was; 12:36...
"Oh Merlin, it is 12:36, Sam, I think you should go before you get caught..." I said, as I got out of the tub
They got out too.
We dried ourselves and Sami wore her cloak, I said to her "Try to be cautious, Sam, I'll see you tomorrow,"
I changed into my pajamas, and then went to sleep.
