Blue meets black
The walk to breakfast felt like a quick one. You were so lost in thought that you didn’t even know you arrived at the dinning hall. You walk in and see most of the students enjoying their breakfast.
You see Dumbledore waiting at the head table for you. You start to walk to the table. Your eye gets caught on blue ocean eyes as you make your way to the front.
Dumbledore helps you up the stairs and has you sit next to him.
Dumbledore
I thought we could enjoy some breakfast while we wait for the other students.
Elodie
Sounds like a great idea. I may help calm my nerves.
Dumbledore
Why so nervous you know you’re a Gryffindor?
Elodie
Yes professor but I have a feeling this year will be different from the last.
Elodie
I think you know Albus. I can feel a pull to him. It’s like no matter how big of a room I am in I can always find him.
You turn towards Albus and he has a glint of curiosity in his eyes.
Elodie
Don’t do anything silly Albus. I haven’t even talked to the boy yet.
Dumbledore
Indeed let’s fix that.
You watch as Albus walks to the front.
Dumbledore
Good morning students. As of this morning we have a new transfer student. Her name is Elodie Norne. Since she was late due to some personal issues we are going to hold a quick sorting ceremony.
Albus turns and holds out his hand to you
You rise from your seat and head over to where Albus is standing.
You take his hand and he helps you onto the seat.
Albus places the sorting hat on your head.
Sorting Hat
Hello Elodie. Let’s get you sorted shall we.
Sorting Hat
You have definitely gotten more clever. Since that the time. Your heart is still pure and your Brave for sure. So where to put you?
Elodie
I think you know Mr. Hat your just stalling
Sorting Hat
Right you are there Elodie
Sorting Hat
Better be Gryffindor!!
The table cheers and Albus takes the hat off your head.
He helps you off the stool and you walk over to your table.
You walk up to a particular set of eyes that are still staring at you.
Harry moves over and you sit next to him.
Hermione
Hello I am Hermione Granger
Ron
Hello you can call me Ron
You feel something move next to you on your thigh. You jump a little with a small shriek. The trio turn to you with a raised eyebrow. You look down to see a small toad. You pick him up and hold him close to your face and look him in the eye.
Elodie
Hello Trevor, sorry for almost sitting on you.
You sit up straight and look for Neville he was siting next to Seamus.
Elodie
Neville I think you lost something
You turn back to the trio
Elodie
So I was wondering if you could yep me find the dorms Hermione so I could change into my robes
Hermione
I would be happy to.
Harry
So are you the same person from yesterday. The one in a red robe.
You rub the back of your neck with a huff
Elodie
Is it okay if I ask you a question
Elodie
Is there a reason you kept staring at me?
A blush forms on both of your cheeks
Harry
I uhm no reason. Just thought you were interesting. The kind of person I would like to get to know a little about.
Elodie
Same, I like your scare by the way.
Harry
Thanks I like yours to it’s cool
Hermione and Ron turn towards each other and smirk
Hermione
You and Dumbledore seem close
Elodie
Yeah he basically raised me.
Elodie
I have been on my own for quite a bit though
Hermione
What do you mean?
Elodie
My parents died when I was a baby. So with no one to help you, you learn how to live on your own pretty quickly.
Harry
That must have been hard.
Harry placed a hand on your shoulder
Elodie
You get used to it.
Hermione
Well how about I show you to the dorms now? classes starts soon.
Elodie
That would be lovely
Elodie
Bye harry bye Ron thank you for letting me sit with you.
You follow Hermione towards the door
Hermione
So just out of curiosity why sit with us?
You freeze for a sec thinking if you should tell her.
Elodie
I uhm… It’s actually because of Harry. I- ever since yesterday when we made eye contact I have had this weird pull towards him.
Hermione
You like him don’t you. If you do you wouldn’t be the first.
Elodie
No I don’t think it’s like that I am feeling. I actually don’t know what it is but, something tells me it will all work out. I have a good feeling about you guys and that’s hard for me to understand since I have been on my own you so long.
Hermione
I understand. Anyways this is the dorms.
Hermione stands in front of a familiar Portrait of a fat lady.
The Portrait opens and you walk into the common room. The warm comfort you feel gives you a sense of familiarity.
Hermione
If you like you could stay in my dorm. We have an extra bed
Elodie
That would be nice.
Elodie
Oh wow, is that a painting of the sword.
Hermione
Yes the sword of Gryffindor
Elodie
I read about it in Hogwarts a history
Elodie
Of course I do. Any free moment of peace I have.
Hermione
We are going to become great friends.
Hermione
Let’s go we must get you changed.
Elodie
Oh your right don’t want to be late on our first day
You head up to the dorm room with your trunk already by the bed. You see the Gryffindor robes laid out on your bed.
Hermione
You look adorable.
Hermione
Now let’s head to class the first one we have is defense against the dark arts
