Hello and before you start this chapter i would like you to know that these little paragraphs are how i am going to be setting up the rest of my chapters so i hope that you like the new design!
Ron and I walked downstairs with Mrs. Weasley to go eat breakfast. "So, mum what is on the menu today?" Ron said sarcastically. "Dagon eggs, flying pig bacon and grits" She answered.
Me and Ron found our seats at the long mahogany table and sat down next to each other. "Okay, everyone time to say grace" Mrs. Weasley said as everyone bowed their heads, except me.
I had never heard of "grace" before. "Come on Cora dear, bow your head down to pray." she ordered but I didn't. "Umm…what is grace?" I asked. There was gasps from everyone, I felt so stupid. "Oh…well…umm…. It is where you talk to our lord God, and thank him for everything he has done for us." She answered. "Oh yes, isn't he the one who created the Earth, and made Adam and Eve." I wondered.
There was a sigh of relief from everyone. "My father went to something called church and I did, too for a while and learned a little bit about God but, after my mum told him about her being a wizard and all he stopped taking us. He said it was because witches were evil and couldn't go to church to worship." I told them.
Mr. and Mrs. Weasley looked dumbfounded. I don't think that they agreed with what my father said. "Well, now that you are living with us you will be going to church. How does that sound?" she asked me.
"That sounds wonderful! Thank you!" I said rushing over to give Mrs. Weasley a great big hug.
One week has passed and I had gone to my first day of church with the Weasleys and it was actually quite interesting.
But, when we got back to the house the mail had come.
"Yes! My son has been accepted into Hogwarts!" Mrs. Weasley screamed picking up Ron and twirling him around. "Mom! You're embarrassing me!" Whispered Ron
"Oh sorry dear" Mrs. Weasley sat Ron back down but, still had her arms around him. Ron looked at me and made the "She's psycho" gesture with his arm, and I smiled in reply. Ron had started to feel like a real brother to me and a real friend.
"Well, well, well. Looks like somebody else was also accepted into Hogwarts." Fred or George said. (I can't tell which one is which).
"Who?" Mrs. Weasley asked. "Oh no one, we probably just need to go throw it out." One of the twins said with a devilish smirk upon his lips. "Oh come on Fred who is it? Is it the neighbors?" The twin was now unmasked to me as Fred.
"Oh fine then!" He gave in. George ran over to Fred and peaked at the letter. "It's no other than the one…..and only…. Cora Dupree!" George announced in a cheesy talk-show host accent. "Hey! I was going to say that!" Fred elbowed George.
I felt as I if I was going to faint. Me? A wizard? My mother was right about me, I'm a wizard!
"Congratulations Cora!" Ron shouted. All at once every one of the Weasleys had come over to pat me on the back. Me, still stunned was just standing there as still as a statue, finally had the guts to speak "Cool." Was all I could say.
