A Day At Hogwarts
The next Monday was my first at school. And it was a blur! Classes, and stonewalls, and stairs, and people. Whoa it got confusing, by the end of the day I was just glad to get to dinner. I had skipped lunch to conference with teachers about homework and getting caught up with everything. It meant a lot of hard work and a couple nights in the library but it should only take a week and a half.
By the time dinner rolled around I was starving, and defiantly ready for some meat, and macaroni and cheese, and bread. But they didn't have that in England. No, they steak, and kidneys, weird stuff that I could hardly recognize, let alone eat, but eat I did, I knew that I would need the energy to stay up late, maybe that Harry guy knew where the kitchen was, I could talk with them about getting some Texas food on the table and maybe a snack later on tonight.
As I looked down the table I spotted him sitting with a pretty, but bushy haired girl and a redheaded boy with a lot of freckles. The girl I recognized as Hermione Granger and the redhead, people had told me was Ronald Wesley, he preferred to being called Ron though. And of course Harry Simmons, but wait, that blond boy had just called him Potter. Hmmm, puzzling, oh well I guess I'll figure that out later.
I got up from the table and started walking to the Great Hall, to go up to the Gryffindor common room, to do my never ending pile of homework, when the hot blond that called Harry, Potter instead of Simmons was right in front of her.
" So you're the new girl, your kinda cute, wanna shag?"
Now even though people tell me i am quite attractive, with deep blue eyes, and thick dark brown hair and if I do say so myself a pretty hot bod, I still do not have people coming up to me and asking those types of questions! People in polite society just don't do that, or say that or whatever.
" No, actually I don't want to shag, however with your sexy body and pretty hot face I'm sure you can find someone to shag, I guess it just won't be me! Oh and by the way if you ever ask me or any other girl to shag without getting to know them first I'll cut of your balls, because if your earlier comment means anything, at the rate your going it's gonna turn green and fall of, because of some disease."
I was kinda tired, and when I get tired I get annoyed. And angry. And I tend to shout, a lot.
"Sorry. Well if I have to get to know you first, what's your name?"
Well he was hot, but I was tired and had a lot of homework to do. So all I did was huff and walk away. And if his face was any indication, girls do not normally walk away from him.
When I finally got to my house, I was exhausted, but I forced myself to go and get my homework and work up in my room, because who really wants to sit and watch other people talk and have fun when you can't. So I avoided the common room. But just as I had gotten done with my essay on love potions for Professor Snape, a bushy head stuck its way through the door and invited itself into my room.
" Hi" I said, a little surprised to see Hermione in my room.
" Hi, I'm Hermione Granger, and you are? I know your in most of my advanced classes, but I haven't been able to catch your name, so I decided to pop in here on my way to the common room to say hi and introduce my self, and invite you downstairs with me to meet my two friends, Harry and Ron." This was all said very fast and said almost without anybreath.
" My name is Teresa Isabelle Alexander. You can call me Teresa or T or whatever other nickname you can think of, and of course I'd love to come to the common room with you, let me just grab my bag, I have to catch up on Potions tonight, which apparently means 5 essays for Professor Snape, due tomorrow. I'll be down in a couple minutes."
" Cool" came the reply and just as suddenly as she was there, she disappeared.
I gathered my stuff and went down to the common room, found the table in which she was sitting, with the two other boys, Harry and Ron.
" Hi!"
" Ron, Harry, this is Teresa Isabelle Alexander. Teresa, this is Ron Wesley and Harry Potter"
" Harry Potter? I thought your name was Harry Simmons."
" Who told you his name was Harry Simmons." For the first time, Ron had talked.
" He did"
" He did?" came the reply.
" Yes, I did", finally Harry, decided to put his two cents in." I didn't want her asking questions or staring at me so I gave a fake last name, get over it already. Its not like it was a crime or anything."
" Well, whatever, lets just get back to work. Ron you need to finish your essay, Teresa you can sit right there by Harry." Hermione said in a no nonsense tone.
I got all of my essays done in the time it took them, the boys, to finish only one essay. They sure worked slowly. Who would have thought? Boys not wanting to do school work, what a shoacker there.
" Have Hermione look over it, she the smartest witch in all of England!" said Ron
" Okay, can you read all these, or do you need to finish your homework? If you'll do that I'll try to get a jump-start on my Astrology homework. I'm completely ahead of schedule, but my school in the States already went over all this stuff, so I knew exactly what to write on all of my essays. They were really easy."
" What school did you go to?" asked Hermione
" Actually I went to a Muggle school, but then I had a private tutor in the witch arts. What a wonderful teacher he was, but my parents wanted me to learn at a real wizarding school, so I choose this one, it I was going to have to leave my friends, I at least wanted to be learning at the best wizarding school in Britain."
" Well these all are really good, actually better than my essays." The girl sounded surprised.
" Well like I said I had a really great tutor."
"Well I'm going to get ready for bed, I'll see you guys later."
As I was walked up the stairs to my room, I decided to get a jump start on my Astrology homework, it was only two star charts, once I got that done, I went to bed, wondering what sort of impression I had made on the trio. O well, if it was bad, i sure as hell couldn't change it now.
