My alarm clock rang 6am as it did every morning. Yawning, I opened the curtains to my four poster and got out of bed. Sleepily, everyone else did too.
The dormitory seemed empty that morning. Instead of the usual 7 girls per dorm, there were only 5, due to Laurie and Tash's absence.
Each dormitory was divided into 7 girls a year, same with 7 boys for the boys' dormitories. In each house there were two dormitories per year.
In our dormitory, most of the girls were nice. We had some mischievous twins, called Susan and Titty. They were great to hang out with, and they never got tired of taking the mickey out of teachers. Then, there were two absolutely dreadful girls. I say dreadful because they were make up wearing, hair tossing, skirt rolling up girls. Their names were Sybil and Monica.
"Morning Annie," Titty called from her bed, smiling her cheeky smile. "Did you do your Transfiguration essay?"
"Yep, I'm all ready for the test this morning."
Titty's eyes widened in horror. "You're not serious are you?"
"Dead serious." I said, playing with her. "Nah, don't worry, I'm just joking with you."
Grabbing my 'Wicked the Musical' towel, I went to the showers.
After a quick, but relaxing, shower, I got into my uniform.
I dried and brushed my hair, then ruffled it up so that it rested on my head in its usual manner.
Making sure my tie was straight, I looked at my appearance in the mirror.
"Perfect, ready for the day ahead."
I grabbed my books from my shelf by my bed, packed my new box of quills, and took out a fresh pot of blue ink and packed it all into my bag.
I checked my bag to make sure that I had my notebook with sheafs of parchment from lessons and essays that I had done.
Everything was there.
I slung the bag on my shoulder and walked down to breakfast.
Susan was already down there, packing her plate full with pancakes. On her left was her bag, saving a space for Titty, and on her right was Scott McCraig.
I blushed and went to the far end of the table, hoping to find someone else to sit with.
By good luck, Nike and her friends were there.
"Hi Annie!" Peggy called to me. "Come and sit with us!"
"Yeah, come on, Annie," Mel said as she piled her plate high with eggs and bacon.
I dumped my bag on the floor and sat down between Mel and Peggy.
I put a bit of food on my plate, but not much. I couldn't eat, because I was worried about what would happen after the duelling.
Playing with my food a bit, I decided that I wasn't hungry.
"I'm going to go now. I'll see you guys later." I said as I was about to get up.
At that exact moment, Albus, my owl dropped me a note.
I recognised the writing on the note straight away. My face drained of all colour.
Miss Bolt, could you please come to my office after lessons today. I would like to have a word with you.
Without another word, I sped from the hall and ran to my dorm.
I had about an hour until lessons started, so I had a bit of time to spare.
Remaining calm as possible, I started to put all of my uniform back into my trunk and then started taking down my pictures and posters. I knew what was coming already.
I could hear Proffessor McGonagall telling me that I was expelled and that the train would be taking me back home that night.
I could just see Luella and her clones' faces when they were told that I was leaving.
I could almost smell the smoke from the steam engine's mighty funnel, as I would be walking up the steps into a carriage.
A tear slipped down my cheeks, but I rubbed it off with the back of my hand.
I couldn't bear to leave Hogwarts, and it was all my fault that I would be expelled.
Fishing under my bed, I found the Nimbus 2000.
Quickly checking over my shoulder to make sure that no one was watching, I shrank the broom and put it into the side pocket of my trunk.
Once my trunk was packed, I grabbed my school bag and went down to lessons.
