First Days and New Friends

Rose woke up thinking about Scorpius. She didn't know what it was about him, whether it was, his looks, with that slick blond hair and blue-gray eyes, or his personality or his unknowing defiance of everything his parents want, but she liked him. He was sweet and amazing. After a moment of laying there thinking about her new friend, she got up and got ready for her first day of classes at Hogwarts. She was so excited! She loved learning, especially about anything magical and was so ready for this, her parents say that she got that from her mom. She had to agree with them because of what she had heard of her parents time here.

Just then her thoughts were interrupted by another girl in her dorm asking her something. It was Yana talking to her. Saying, "Hey, do you have anyone to sit with during breakfast."

"Ya, I'm sitting with my cousin and our friend. Why?" she asked.

"Could I sit with you guys, then?" Yana asked.

"Sure," she answered and together Yana and Rose left the dorm and headed down to the great hall, to see that Scorpius and Albus were already eating.

"Good morning," Rose said as they walked in and sat down.

"Mornin'" Al said through a mouth full of food. After he swallowed he asked "Do you know what your schedule is like?"

As she answered, "No," Rose glanced over at Scorpius who seemed down and like he hadn't gotten any sleep. "Have you sent a letter to your parents yet Scorp?" she asked also noticing that he wasn't touching his oatmeal. "You really should eat something," she added as she took a bite of her own breakfast.

"No, I haven't and I will eat in a moment," He answered a little sharply. Just as he finished the owls flew in with the morning mail. Three owls dropped something above them. One for Al, one for Rose, and one for Scorpius, Yana didn't get anything. Rose noted that she hadn't got anything and asked her, "Why didn't you get anything?"

"Oh, that's because my parents wanted me to write to them first," Yana answered and went back to eating. Rose could tell there was something else but she wasn't about to push it. The other two were reading their letters. Al was smiling and Scorpius looked stricken. "What did they say?" Rose asked him.

"They said that they are very excited to learn the results of my sorting, if I could write them to tell them about it and my first day, and they love me," he answered her.

"Well that's not that bad," Rose said and turned to her unopened letter in front of her. She didn't know why but for some reason she was scared to open it. But, she did and this is what it said;

Dear Rosie,

What house did you get? How about Albus? Did you guys meet any new friends? If so who? I forgot to tell you this on the platform but I think it would be good if you and Al stuck together if that's possible. We know that you'll do wonderful no matter what. We all love you and Hugo already says he misses you.

Love,

Your mom (and dad and Hugo)

She liked their short letter. Rose decided that she would write to them tonight if she didn't have too much homework. Maybe, she thought, she might tell her mom about her crush. Just then Professor Longbottom came and handed them their class schedule. They all had the same schedule of course and saw at the same time their first class of the day was History of Magic. As Rose, Al, and Scorp groaned softly Yana said, "That class sounds fun," and as the other three stared at her astonished she added, "I'm a muggle born. What's so bad about that class?" As Professor Longbottom watched, the four of them got up and as they headed to their first ever class at Hogwarts Rose explained why History of Magic was not the best, or even close to it, class to Yana. He thought there is four students that will make it through, but only with help from the others. Then he left to get ready for his first class of the day.
