A/N: Thank you somuch for the follows and reviews. You guys made me really happy. There have been more updates so quickly because I'm on break right now so it will be harder to update once I start school again. I will do my best though. I am trying to update as much as possible this week because of that. You guys are great! I dont think I could ever thank you enough. I love you guys! - Piper
p.s.: I almost forgot to add the disclaimer. Sadly I don't ownthe characters created by the wonderful J.K. Rowling. I do however own my characters so I'd be much obliged if you would let them stay mine and ask if you are going to use them. Thanks peeps!
I woke up the next morning feeling happier than I had in a long time. I hadn't ever had people be so accepting of me. I had people here who, after two days, cared about me more than the people who have known me since I was born. I looked around the room only to find that I had woken up in the middle of the night again. It was around two in the morning and I was wide awake. Normally when this happened I would either read or do homework. I know that makes me sound like a total nerd, but the truth is that if you haven't figured that out by now then you aren't very observant.
I decided to walk down to the common room. I quietly dug through my stuff until I found what I was looking for, my journal and a quill. I decided that while I was up I might as well write down the good feelings so that I wouldn't ever forget them.
When I reached the common room I was pleasantly surprised to find a nice warm fire going. I walked over to a desk and set down my journal. I began to write about my day. I remembered all the hurt that it had started with, but ended with all of the happiness and joy of my new found family. I knew that it would take me a long while to be able to open up to my new best friends, but maybe someday I would be able to talk to them about my feelings. I looked at a clock a found it to be five o'clock. I knew that other people may start getting up soon so I decided to go back to my room. I was going to try to sleep for a couple more hours before classes started that day.
I woke up to Rose shaking me.
"Hey there sleepy head," she said smiling, "It's time for breakfast."
"Okay, but can I have five more minutes?" I said.
"No, I already gave you fifteen so up, now!" She said as she started pulling off my covers.
"Well fine then MOM," I said laughing. I got up and put on my robes.
"You can thank me later," She said walking to the door, "If you didn't get up then you wouldn't get breakfast, and then you would also be late for your first class. Not a good way to start your first day at Hogwarts."
"Well thanks again mom," I said. I was almost out the door when she stopped me, "What?"
"Books."
"Right. Well go on ahead I'll meet you in the Great Hall," I went to my chest and found my books. I grabbed my journal as well just in case. My journal always helped to clear my mind. When I turned around Rose was still there. "I told you to leave."
"Well seeing as I'm your mom I decided to wait for you." She said laughing.
"Well thank you. I'm hungry so let's go eat," I said.
We started walking and as we went down the stairs I knew that I had found a great friend. I had a new found family, and I knew that I had chosen my friends wisely.
