Laverene
opened her eyes to the golden sunlight that filled her bedroom in
London. An ajar window above her bed shook slightly against the
morning breeze. Laverene groaned and flipped over to her other side,
brown frizzy curls in her face. She pushed her hair away from her
face as she sat up. She dangled her feet off the side of the bed,
yawning.
Laverene sat, gazing at the muggle clock on her wall. It
was 9:00 o'clock. Laverene pushed herself off her bed and walked over
to the bathroom. The cold wooden floor creaked under Laverene's feet.
It was September first, and Laverene had to get ready so she could
catch the Hogwarts Express.
Laverene was living alone, paying her
rent with the money she recieved from her job. She worked at the
Leaky Cauldron. It was an easy job, all she had to do was wait tables
and clean up after customers. The only hard part was that she had to
exchange her wizardry money for muggle money each payday. She made
the walk down Diagon Alley so much that Laverene got attached to the
ice cream polar next to Olivanders.
Every week she would order a
double chocolate frog shake after exchanging her money. It had been a
fun summer, especially now that she got the Auror's job. Laverene was
to await Owent to call on her. He said she would probably get an
assignment during Christmas.
Laverene got dressed in a long black
coat that looked much like a cloak. Under it she wore a white, creamy
shirt. She completed the look with her black boots. Laverene tide her
hair up in a ponytail and made her way to the kitchen.
As
Laverene boiled the water for her tea, she spotted the Daily Prophet.
Laverene read the day's news and sipped her hot tea with honey.
Looking up at the date, Laverene became depressed. She glanced at her
trunk that layed next to the door. "This is the last year I
attend Hogwarts," thought Laverene was she washed her cup and
kettle.
Laverene sighed as she made her way out of the apartment.
Her invisible trunk floated neatly infront of her. Laverene directed
it through the crowd as she walked to Kings Cross. It was a busy day
for muggles. They were everywhere that morning. Laverene spotted some
jogging, others eating in cafes, and some even arguing between each
other about who got the last cookie.
Laverene stepped inside
Kingscross and bolted to platform 9 and 3/4. She was late and the
train would be leaving without her if she didn't hurry up. Her trunk
accidently hit a women in the head as Laverene flew by.
"Sorry!"
Laverene called out to the lady who was looking around for what hit
her.
Laverene jumped through the wall, pulling her wand out of her
sleeve. She directed her trunk to the train. She stopped and pulled
her trunk onto the train, sighing in relief.
