Everybody clapped as Phylis Whitehead was finally sorted into Slytherin. Oliver who was on my right had his head in his hands as he tapped the table lightly with the end of his fingers. Jazlyn sat on my left picking at her finger nails and humming to Jingle Bells. I flicked Jazlyn in the side of her head and held my hand over Olivers to shut them up. Seconds later the food appeared and we all quickly scooped food onto our plates.
I was still in awe of the powerful wizard that stood at the front of the hall. Albus Dumbledore was the most talented wizard of all time. Every few seconds I would look up at him losing track of the entire conversation.
"Would you look at your food and not at me love?" I looked slightly to the left from where I was looking at Dumbledore and saw Oliver raising his eyebrows at me.
"Sorry "Love" but I'm to busy looking at him to look at you" I said gesturing towards Dumbledore.
"I'm not sure whether to be insulted that you are perving on Dumbledore and not me" Oliver said smirking.
"I'm not perving on Dumbledore you imbecile, he is just a great wizard" I said shoving him with my shoulder.
"Imbecile? So you're not perving on me?" Oliver said wiping away a fake tear.
"Sorry to disappoint you" I said snatching the roll off Jazlyns plate while she faced the other way.
"So, Taylor or Chris a boyfriend from home?" He said looking back at his plate.
"No way they are both friendzoned so bad" I said winking at Taylor across the table.
Taylor Knowles had been my best friend since diapers and his girlfriend Abigail Smith was one of my closest friends as well. Abigail was on Taylors left and Elizabeth Last was on Abigails left. We had all been good friends since we were little and all of us were 15 except for Elizabeth who was just 16.
"Good" Oliver replied winking at me quickly.
We walked to the library where Professor McGonagal was waiting for us to let us know where we were sleeping.
"We have decided to have all of the Australians sleeping in rooms together, if you are a Hogwarts student you may choose to sleep here or in your dorm" Professor McGonagal said.
I felt myself let out a sigh of relief. I couldn't spend a whole year with Marietta and her friends.
"Don't look so relieved we still have to handle her" someone whispered in my ear. I spun around to see Marietta clinging to Oliver as if her life depended on it.
I started laughing until Professor McGonagal glared at me and I turned it into a cough. We followed the teachers to the end of the corridor where a huge portrait of a wizard stood.
"Password?" He asked.
"Dumbledore" Professor McGonagal said.
The door opened and we followed into the room.
"Boys on the left, girls on the right"
Chris and I watched with laughter as Marietta said goodbye to Oliver before we both turned towards our own dorms.
I jumped onto a bed and looked around.
On the bed on my left was Jazlyn, curly black hair, brown eyes, very tall and skinny. On my right was Abigail, wavy blonde hair, blue eyes, skinny, long legs, athletic and basically who every guy dreamed about. On Jazlyns left was Elizabeth, curly blonde hair, brown eyes, short and skinny. On Elizabeths left was Angelina, wavy dark brown hair, dark skin, brown eyes, athletic, skinny and tall. On Angelinas left was Alicia Spinnet. Elizabeth was with her. She had dark brown hair, tanned skin and brown eyes. On Alicias left was Cho Chang. Abigail was with her. Cho was Mariettas best friend so I wasnt the only one with an eleven year old. Cho had brown hair and brown eyes. Then next was Marietta, red hair, brown eyes, tall and skinny. I'm just chocolate brown hair, light blue eyes, short, skinny and athletic.
Marietta and Cho were sitting in the corner giggling about merlin knows what. Elizabeth was reading once again another book. Angelina and Alicia were reading through a quidditch magazine. Jazlyn, Abigail and I were sitting on my bed writing letters to our family.
"Could you girls either tell us what is funny or be a bit quieter?" Elizabeth said.
"Nothing is funny we were just talking about Oliver Wood, don't you think Marietta would be perfect for him" Cho said.
Everyone besides Abigail and Marietta held their laughter in but everyone's shoulders were soon shaking and our pillows were being stuffed into our mouths to stop any laughter from comiing out. That was how Chris, Taylor, Oliver and Percy Weasley found us.
With me sitting on the ground with my head in my pillow. Abigail who couldn't hide it any longer silently laughing to herself in the corner. Jazlyn, Alicia and Angelina were rolling on the ground crying. Elizabeth had her head in her book whilst Marietta and Cho looked on confused.
"What's so funny?" Chris said as he slid on the floor next to me.
"I'll tell you later" I said finally controlling myself.
"You look so familiar and it is driving me crazy" Oliver said sitting across from me.
"Ever been to Australia?" I said jokingly.
"Yeah last year with the school" he said. That was when I realized that this wasn't the first time meeting Oliver Wood.
