Just a Little Confusing
An Interlude
Disclaimer: Same…
A/n: I thought to put up something like this as I was finishing up the second chapter. It is basically the thoughts of certain characters at that point during the story. I didn't label the 'thoughts' because I feel that I've made it obvious enough who are the 'thinkers'. Okiees…please review
ooo
'That was rather exhausting. I hope that not all days are like today. The Sorting made me self-conscious- all those people looking at me, waiting for the decision of a torn hat on my head. The girls would say I'm not used to the attention.
'Kaitlin and Felicia. They really are better at making friends than I am. Lily and the boys-the Marauders-are very nice though, especially Remus, he pulled me out of a crowd and back to our group when I nearly got lost. Carrie is quite a character; she's really nice but she's so…so…energetic! But I have to say I had more fun chatting with her for half an hour than with the Populars (as she refers to them) for three hours. She offered to be my 'guide' tomorrow and I was only too happy to accept.
'The girls are right though. I am not used to the attention. I guess that's what happens when you have 3 much older sisters and an even older brother. You end up being more like a sidekick: important and loved yet…shunted to one side. No one really pays attention to the sidekick.'

'Whew. Today was…was…really something. I wonder if everyday is like that here. The sorting was fun even though the entire student body had to see me with that daft looking hat on my head. That hat must really be daft it placed me in Ravenclaw-studying really isn't my thing.
'Ravenclaw. Terence Higgins is pretty cute. Nice golden hair…blue eyes…yep you got it-target set, locked. He is so different from that arsehole Billy, he may just get me back into the dating game enough to snag Sirius. Whoa…where the fuck did that come from?
'I do not like Sirius Black. Sure he's hot with his black hair and nice broad shoulders and-stop it Brown! Brown-see our kids would be sooo messed up they'd be Brown-Black. It doesn't matter that he's really funny and…don't go there Brown. He's just another Billy who will break your heart. Boys can't be trusted that way.'
ooo
'Today was really tiring. Fun but tiring. I got sorted into Gryffindor with Lily and the Marauders. The girls got into Ravenclaw; part of me wishes they were here but the other part is glad I'm separated. I am such a bad person sometimes.
'The girls with Lily and me in the dorm seem pretty nice. A little ditzy but nice. The boys are great; they are just sooo funny-I can't believe they pulled that stunt with the second floor main corridor.
'Classes start tomorrow. I kinda wish they didn't. Still I'm excited to start since they'll probably have a whole different curriculum and teaching style from Oromis.
'Friends and studies. These two mean so much to me. I miss my family but I think its time I had a break from them. Here-away from my family-I can be more relaxed; I don't always have to worry about their reaction or their approval or if I'm living up to their expectations. They can't define who I am here. Here…I'm just me.'
A/n: short but it said what it needed to say. Next chapter…they start classes.
