Scarlett

When I walked into the dining hall my expectations had reached skies. That's what happens when you have read Harry Potter 7 times. I was slightly disappointed because were no ghosts roaming around but other than that, it was breathtaking. Papers were flying all around being passed by students who could control air. Students were sitting all in groups on different tables. There were rows of food, properly labelled. Ranging from salads to sweets. 

"Wow," I said aloud. 

"Yes, that's what people say, when they see our dining hall for the first time. Sometimes I wish I would get the opportunity to feel how you guys feel," he said already starting to walk towards the food.

    WillaimI went before she could think and reply to my statement when I said that I wanted to help her. Wow, I don't know why I have so much inclination to help her. I had first thought that it was because she has been through so much and no one, but now I think it's her and her alone not any situation. I am attracted to her. I can't really blame me, she is actually very beautiful and strong. It's good that it's not only me who felt that, I thought remembering the way she blushed when she told me thanks about carrying her. She is sarcastic and it's quite interesting being around her.I shook my head smiling sheepishly to myself.I am worried about her though, she is taking this situation in a much different way. Most people usually cry their heart out but her, she is keeping it all inside, it will all explode one day. She is clearly acting, nobody could be that fine when their parents have just died, and not only die, murdere

    ScarlettHushed voices steered me awake. I tried to open my eyes but couldn't, it was as if they were stuck. After a lot of effort, I managed to open my eyes a little bit. There was so much light, oh god. It was as if the light was penetrating through my head and colliding with my skull. My body felt numb and there were tubes attached to my hand. That's when I remembered I was in a hospital and my parents were dead. Oh god! my parents were murdered and I couldn't save them.&nbs

    ScarlettI opened my eyes and the first thing I noticed was that I was not in my own bed. I got up with a jerk, looking around I saw that the room was much bigger and furnished than mine.

Tears started flowing down my cheeks but I quickly wiped them. I had to be strong, my parents wouldn't want me to be this weak.

William stole glances at me but not in a seductive way but rather in a way like he wanted to read my mind."So, what was your favourite subject in mundane studies?" he asked breaking the abnormal silence."I actually loved studies but if you ask me one, I would say...Maths.""Well, that's unfortunate. With your ability to sense death and your interest in maths, you would most probably have to attend the "Time of death class"." he said smirking."Seriously?" I asked him, he was joking for sure. I stared at him."Don't look at me like that. I am not joking.""Well then great, I am so excited about the class, why don't we start it now," I said sarcastically.He laughed, hi

    ScarlettShe was tiny but utterly stunning. I froze for a second not being able to say anything."Umm...Sorry, I am looking for William."At my statement, she looks beyond happy. A big smile spreads on her face, lighting up her entire face."Hi, I am Isabelle. Williams best friend. You must be Scarlett that, Willaim here was talking about." she says and before I can reply, she gives me a big hug.At the same time, William comes from the room. He is also wearing blue jeans and the same shirt as me. The blue complements his eyes and to say the least, he looks good. "Hi Scarlett, I see you have met my best friend Issi," he says grinning."Yeah," I say awkwardly answering both questions but smiling.When Isabelle releases with from the hug, William stares at me for a second like he is captivated with my appearance.

    Scarlett"So, this is your room."We stopped in front of a white door which had a wooden tag that said "Room 18". There were rooms all along the corridor. Here I could hear some voices and students were coming out of their rooms and smiling at William and staring at me."Umm..why is everybody staring at me?" I asked him softly."Don't worry its nothing personal. It's just that we have only 180 students here and we rarely get any new students.""OK," I said hesitantly."Here all the students have the same room here. We don't have divided dorms for boys and girls so, my room is next to yours. Also, your uniform would by on your bed. Normally I would have given you some time to rest but we have to get to breakfast. So get ready and dressed and I will meet you here in 30 minutes. OK?""Yes"He went to his room and I opened my new room.I opened the door to my room. It made absolutely no noise.
