Backstory
Living in a home where your only friends are plants and a house-elf isn't exactly ideal. I never had a real friend outside our home, nobody lived nearby anyway. Our house was perched on top of a hill in Wimbourne, completely isolated from the village below us. I never really got to explore the village that much, I wasn't allowed to. My daily activities consisted of spending time at our front yard talking idly to the flowers, occasionally spotting a garden gnome or two sneaking inside. Every two hours, Holly, our house-elf, would approach me holding a tray of freshly baked pastries. I have recently found an interest in muggle books that my father would bring me after a day in the Ministry, however I've already finished reading all of them... there really isn't much to do when you can only explore so much.That was until I received my Hogwarts letter. I was sitting by the fountain when a screech owl flying above me suddenly dropped a letter on my lap. As I read my acceptance letter, a smile spread across my face as I ran inside to my parents.
We went to Diagon Alley, purchased my own wand, my own robes, and a kneazle that I named North. I even visited Gambol and Japes and bought a pack of Sugar Quills!
As I boarded the train the next day, I knew that this year, it would be different. I would get to meet new friends and learn about magic!
