Chapter 1
A New Beginning

As the Hogwarts Express train started moving, a young girl of sixteen years was having a hard time trying to find a seat.

'I can't believe I'm going on with this far-fetched plan,' she thought to herself. Her grandfather recommended to her that she would look more normal if she went on the Express train. It had been a hard fifteen minutes before Jamie found an empty compartment since nobody would give her an empty seat next to them on the train. As she was opening the door to the compartment, she thought she heard someone yelling,

"Hey that's Harry Potter's compartment that is." However, she just ignored the comment and sat down by the window seat. She sat there thinking about her new life for four minutes when all of the sudden she heard two people arguing and someone opening the door to the compartment.

"Leave him alone Hermione, he's fine."

"I was just asking him Ronald, and anyways- oh, hello," the girl said seeing Jamie for the first time. The girl had a pretty face with bushy brown hair.

"Who are you and what are you doing in our compartment," came a voice behind the girl. The boy was very tall and had flaming red hair.

"Ronald! Sorry, he's always rude to other people and doesn't think about the consideration for others," the girl said, with the boy glaring at her. "His name is Ron Wesley, and I'm Hermione Granger," the girl said holding out her hand for Jamie to shake.

"Um, yeah, I better go," Jamie, said standing up and ignoring Hermione's outstretched hand. Hermione gave her a confused look and said,

"No, wait you don't have to leave.'

"Look, sorry about using your compartment, put I have to go," Jamie said heading towards the door, while Ron and Hermione started arguing again.

"Good job Ron! See how you manage to scare everyone away."

"Yeah, sure just blame everything on me," he retorted back, as Jamie started opening the door and not looking where she was going slammed into someone with untidy jet black hair and glasses.

"Ow," Jamie said as the boy fell on top of her.

"Sorry," the boy said while rubbing his forehead where they hit.

"No, no, it's my fault, I need to go," Jamie said not looking at the boy. As the boy started to get up he said, "I'm Harry-"

"Well, well, well. If it isn't Potter trying to get a new member into his fan club," came a sneering voice that cut off Harry.

"Shove off Malfoy," both Harry and Ron said.

"I wasn't talking to you weasel, as seeing you probably couldn't even afford joining the club," Malfoy said as Ron's ears turned bright red.
"Shut up," he shouted back.

"And may I ask who you are," Malfoy asked Jaime as she stood up.
"Leave her alone Malfoy," Harry said.

"I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy, and you can call me Draco," Malfoy said ignoring Harry, and reaching for Jamie's hand. Harry pushed her behind him, and she staggered behind Ron and Hermione.

"Leave Malfoy," Harry said, and Malfoy sneered at him and left.

"Sorry about that," Harry started to say to Jaime, but stopped when he realized that she was not there anymore.

"Huh, that's funny," Ron, said to them while scratching his head.

"Yeah," Harry said wondering, "funny."

"Have you seen her before Harry?" Hermione asked.

"No," Harry said, "she must be new."

"But she was wearing a Gryffindor tie."

"Maybe she was already sorted," said Ron. "Anyways, Harry want to play a round of Exploding Saps?" While playing with Ron, Harry's mind lingered on the girl, but when they finally reached Hogwarts, he forgot all about her.
