Harry was woken by Mrs Weasley shaking him gently.
He woke up groggily, near Ron, who was mumbling on his bed about having to go to the train so early in the morning.
"But the train leaves at 11. That's not early. That's late." Ginny said to Hermione as Harry and Ron came downstairs for breakfast.
"Yeah, but we still have to get up early, don't we?" added Ron.
Ginny, who had bags under her eyes put up her hands surrendering.
"Ok, ok, you win; I'm too tired to listen to this."
Soon, after making sure everything was in their trunks, and Harry now carrying the Legend trunk as well as his normal trunk, they headed to the fireplace.
"Now everyone." began Mrs Weasley, "this year they have installed a Floo connection to King's Cross, so we will go through there."
With that, she gestured for Ron to go, and in an instant he was gone. One by one they followed, and soon they were standing in front of the gleaming scarlet train, the platform itself buzzing with excitement and the chatter of friends who had not seen each other for weeks.
They carried their trunks onto the train, going to their usual compartment at the back. Harry seemed to notice a lot more girls were looking at him, whispering and smiling. People also greeted him. Some girls came and accidentally on purpose felt his bicep. Or commented on his physique.
"Becoming a bit like your dad mate." Ron said. "Sirius said he was a babe magnet. Popular, Quidditch Player, practical joke player and apparently made all the girls swoon."
Harry blushed and said, "Well, maybe, apart from the practical jokes. They made up their own stuff, pretty cool apparently."
With that, Harry and Hermione had to go change into their robes for their prefect meeting. Harry proudly placed his Prefect and Quidditch Captain badges onto his robes and met Hermione to walk down to the Prefect compartments.
Now, even more girls stared.
Hermione laughed. "I think they may be taking even more notice now you're a prefect and the Quidditch Captain. You're gonna have to beat them off with a ten foot pole. Or in my case, a twig."
Harry laughed.
They silently made their way down to the compartments, Ginny already down there with Luna Lovegood, who had made a fifth year Ravenclaw Prefect. The meeting started, and this included the Head Boy and Head Girl nervously giving out rotas. Harry and Hermione, who noticed they shared duties together, were told about their dorms in Gryffindor tower. They would share a living area, and they were above the main dorms.
"That's cool Hermione. Now you can help me more with homework!" Harry laughed as Hermione threw him a dirty look.
Soon, they made their way back to their compartment with Ron who didn't look too pleased that they shared dorms together.
"You're only wishing you and Hermione had separate dorms to yourselves." Harry joked and laughed harder as Ron blushed.
They soon made their way off the train, and after Harry and Hermione directed the people from the train, they went and got into a now Thestral pulled carriage.
None of the others apart from Luna could see them while Ron, Hermione and Ginny could not them, they were lucky, Harry thought. They sometimes wished they could see them, but seeing the look on Harry's face made them retract it almost immediately. It was only those who had witnessed death and accepted it, could see them. That was why Harry felt angry when Ron and Hermione complained about not being able to see them.
Dodging past Peeve's water balloons, they made there way with the chattering crowd into the Great Hall, were they took there seats at the Gryffindor table.
They sat down, saying goodbye to Luna, who walked over to the Ravenclaw table, and Ron immediately started complaining about hunger, and why did the first years HAVE to get sorted.
In the end, it was only after Harry punched him, Hermione kicked him under the table and Ginny shovelled a cauldron cake into his mouth, with Neville holding Ron's arms, he was finally quiet.
The doors burst open and in walked Professor McGonagall, followed by many extremely nervous looking first years.
After McGonagall started, Harry fell into a daze.
It was if he was asleep, but he felt awake. He was suddenly in a different place.
Sorry this is so short, but the writer's block is starting to clear, and I thought it would be good to have a cliff hanger.
