§ New Beginning § Abandoned

Alexis set down her cutlery as she finished her dinner. She still have some time before she has to get back to her dormitory. The first day of school at Hogwarts was pretty boring, mostly the Professors just introducing their classes and maybe learn something simple. Alexis didn’t anyone just yet. Yesterday after finishing their sorting ceremony and their welcome feast, she spent her time talking to her brothers. She didn’t get a chance to get to know anyone else, her spoiled attitude and her unintentionally, most of the time anyway, unfriendly expression didn’t help either.

The raven haired girl glided down the empty corridor, she blue eyes wandered around the big hallway with curiosity, not really know where she was going. She was excited to tell someone about being sorted into Ravenclaw, she was prouder than ever. She already shared her excitement with her brothers and her parents, but she wanted to talk to somebody else. She was in a good mood, someone should take advantage of that!

Like a light bulb lit up in her head, she realized her neighbor, Althea, was also starting this year. She didn’t totally not know anyone after all. With her eyes gleaming, she turned her back towards where she came from, wondering if her friend finished her meal yet?

Reducio
Sorry for the delay, I’ve been busy.

§ New Beginning § Abandoned
Althea poked at her food with her fork. She doesn't feel hungry tonight, and she felt strangely upset and uneasy. Her first day at Hogwarts went rather well. The professors were mostly friendly and the classes - she found she liked Potions the most - were quite interesting. Her fellow house members were as kind and out-going as she expected, though she has not spoken to any of them with the intent of befriending them.

Althea assumed her negative emotions came from the fact that she was sorted into the Hufflepuff House. Her father was a Ravenclaw, and she wanted to be one as well. But alas, the Sorting Hat saw a different potential in her. She had written a letter about te news already, but she decided to keep it and owl it to them on a later date. She knew there was nothing wrong with being in the yellow house, and she in fact enjoyed their cozy common room. Perhaps she could actually benefit from being in this house.

Deciding she was no longer hungry and ready to get out of the Great Hall, Althea got up and exited the room. She paced around the corridors and hallways of Hogwarts, wanting to pass time. As she continued her aimless walk, she spotted a familar raven-haired girl walking towards the direction of the great hall. Alexis Asterion, if she remembered correctly.

Despite her hesitation, she called out to her neighbour. "Hey Alexis."

Alexis’s turned her gaze towards the direction of the sound of her name. “Althea! I was just wondering where you were.” She stepped closer to the girl with her signature confident stride, carrying herself with grace.

She came to a stop in front of the girl, “We haven’t seen each other since when? When you depart for King’s Cross? How was the first day?” Alexis felt herself at ease in the presence of someone she already knew. The girl’s and Alexis’s relationship were close enough for her to be comfortable around Althea. Her family’s reputation, her brother’s popularity and her own demeanor made it difficult for her to meet new people. Especially if she was in a bad mood, which is more often than she would like to admit, she just didn’t like not getting what she wants and to make it worse, very few people would be able to cheer her up. People in her house are nice but she didn’t really connect with anyone yet.

“What house are you in anyway? I wasn’t really paying attention at the Sorting Ceremony.” She wondered which house she was in. Alexis was aware that the girl’s father was a Ravenclaw, but the girl wasn’t. Otherwise she would have noticed her at the welcome feast.

Alexis turned her head towards her direction as soon as she called out her neighbour's name, “Althea! I was just wondering where you were.” Althea nodded with a small smile as Alexis stepped closer to her with her signature confident stride. Althea has always wondered how Alexis could carry herself with such grace and confidence, and was rather impressed.

“We haven’t seen each other since when? When you depart for King’s Cross? How was the first day?” Alexis asked. Althea shrugged, honestly not knowing how to answer the three questions shot at her. She didn't really remember when she met Alexis last, but remember spotting the girl during the Sorting Ceremony. Alexis turned out a Ravenclaw if she was not wrong, which did not surprise Althea much. The girl was quite the clever one.

"Yeah, we saw each other at King's Cross. My first day was alright, how was yours?" Althea replied as she continue to keep up her smile, "You are a Ravenclaw, am I correct?" She was admittedly a bit jealous that her childhood friend got into the house of the quick-witted, but she was not one to be bitter over something and risk losing one of her comrades. She decided to feel happy for the girl instead.

“What house are you in anyway? I wasn’t really paying attention at the Sorting Ceremony," Alexis questioned again. Althea laughed nervously, answering, "Well, I wanted to be in Ravenclaw like you. Sadly, I ended up in Hufflepuff. But, I guess my house isn't that bad." It was true. In fact, Althea actually quite liked the Hufflepuff dormitories. She found out that the Cederic Diggory that her father told her of was a Hufflepuff, which was a nice and pleasant surprise. Her head of house seemed friendly too.

"How are things at your house? I heard your common room is nice and full of books," Althea asked, genuinely curious.
