Chapter 3: Slytherin Dorms
"The dorms are upstairs," Terence said after a few minutes. "The stairs to the left lead to the boy's dorms and the stairs to the right lead to the girl/s. There are bathrooms off each dorm. There are seven rooms for each of the seven years of Hogwarts. You'll be in room one with the other first year girls and your stuff is already in there. For the guys, the bed is chosen for us, but it might be different with the girls. Uh... That's all I can think of right now."
"What about new uniforms," I giggled.
"Oh! Right! Uniforms," he said loudly. "Your new uniforms are upstairs in your dorm. You get a robe, tie, scarf, shoes, sweater, shirt and pants. Being a girl, you probably get a skirt because the other girls have skirts. If you want anything else, you'll have to buy it in Hogsmeade or Diagon Alley."
"When do classes start," I asked.
"Tomorrow," He smiled. "Most teachers aren't too strict day one on first years as long as they're only a couple minutes late, but be careful because some are. Snape's pretty cool, but other professors don't like us Slytherins too much."
"Well they haven't met me," I smiled, knowing my adult charming skills. "I've made an adult who hated me, love me in five minutes. No one is going to be hating me any time soon."
With that, I walked up the stairs and to the first year girl's dormitory. Walking inside, I was shocked. There were five old fashion four post beds with green sheets that looked to be made of silk, a large black window showing the Black Lake, table lamps on the right side of every bed, a chandelier in the middle of the room, green and black trunks at the end of every bed, new uniforms laid on all the beds, and Slytherin Crest rugs on the right side of the beds. It was amazing.
Walking up to the first bed on the left, I saw a note that said "the clothes will shrink once you put them on." I smiled and looked to see if there was a name on the bed. Opening the trunk, I saw it was empty and realized I really did get to choose which bed I got to sleep in.
"Welcome to the Slytherin Common room," I heard someone down stairs saying.
"Hi," a girl said walking into the room. "The other first years are just getting the tour from the Prefects, Grenna Farley to be exact, though you already got your tour from Mr. Terence Higgs."
"Kinda," I smiled. "He was really nice and offered to bring me back here so I could put Milly down."
"Milly," She asked.
"My mouse," I said holding up the cage.
"Is that the mouse that caused that other first year girl to scream," She laughed. "That thing couldn't hurt a fly! It's so tiny!"
"I know," I smiled.
"I'm Ella Willkins, second year," She smiled. "If you ever want or need someone to talk to, just come to room two and get me. Everyone in Slytherin is rude to anyone in the years under them, but first years need someone to help them sometimes."
"Thanks," I said. "I'm going to get ready for bed so I can get breakfast and not be late to my first class tomorrow."
"Good idea," She smiled. "Goodnight Hermione."
"Goodnight Ella," I said as she closed the door.
Finally, I was alone again so I could hear Grenna telling the other first years about Slytherin. As I listened, I opened the trunk in front of my bed and started putting my things in it. On the bottom on the trunk, I put the pins, bottle caps, ribbons, fake flower, thread and needle, wool, and beads I brought to personalize my look while still showing house pride. I would have to remember to make something quick in the morning otherwise I would just be another face in the crowd.
"Now go to your rooms, unpack your things, and go to sleep," Grenna said before I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. "Goodnight."
I took my uniform off the bed and brought them with me to the bathroom so I could size them before getting my pajamas on. To my surprise, my uniform took less than a second to shrink after I put it all on. I took it all off and put on my pajamas, a light gray tank top and a pair of purple and black plaid shorts. Walking into the bedroom, I saw Pansy sitting on my bed.
"What do you think you're doing," I asked walking over to her. "This is my bed."
"No, it's mine," She said. "I sleep on the bed across from the door."
"Get off MY bed," I yelled.
"It's not YOUR bed," She yelled.
"Look at the night stand," I said.
She looked over, jumped up, and ran into the bathroom screaming. I tried hard not to laugh, but I did. I told her to get off my bed.
Suddenly, as I was laughing, I stopped. Pansy would get someone to kill Milly. I tried to clear my head and remember the protection charms Ms. Bell taught me. I wasn't going to just let Milly DIE because Pansy was being a witch, and not the magical kind!
"That wasn't cool," a girl, I think named Tracy Davis, said.
"I told her to get off my bed," I said rolling me eyes. "I would have done the same thing to any one of you if you were on my bed. I don't like people on my bed or touching my stuff. I've had enough of that at Bell's!"
"I understand," another girl, Daphne Greengrass, said. "I have a little sister, she'll be coming here in two years, and she does not understand privacy and that my stuff isn't hers! That's why I was so excited to get my letter, get away from her for a while. Don't get me wrong, I love her, but I need my space!"
"Since none of the rest of us have chosen a bed, do you mind if I take the one next to you," She asked.
"Go ahead," I smiled. "I don't mind at all."
At that moment, Pansy came out of the bathroom. I looked at her and it looked like she had been crying because she had black lines running down her face. I almost felt bad for her, but that feeling disappeared as quickly as it had come.
"I want the bed closest to the bathroom," Pansy said sitting on the second bed on the right. "It takes a long time to look this good!"
I rolled my eyes and looked back at Daphne to see her doing the same thing. We both started laughing. As we calmed down, we started unpacking her stuff and putting it in her trunk.
"Thanks," She said when her stuff was moved. "I'm going to go size me robes."
I nodded. As she grabbed her robes, I went over to Milly and started to do the protective enchantments. The only thing the enchantments would do was make it so magic wouldn't effect her and you had to remove the enchantments to pick her up.
"Goodnight," Daphne said as she came out of the bathroom. "We all need our beauty sleep, some of us more than others."
I tried not to laugh as I got under my covers and turned my light off. If tomorrow was like today, I wouldn't mind staying here for the rest of my life!
