As Andy stepped on to the Hogwarts express, he knew he would have an eventful year. Yet if it wasn't that eventful, well he would make it. Standing next to him was his best friend Ashley. "Well it's a nice train, I wonder what snacks they have." Andy murmured to Ashley as Professor McGonagall rushed past. They found an empty carriage with ease. Just as Andy's stomach finished rumbling an old lady appeared at the door with a trolley " Anything from the trolley" she asked in a screechy voice. "We'll buy all of it" Ashley declared.  "Shut up, idiot" Andy elbowed him out of the way "Umm we'll have 4 chocolate frogs and 2 Bertie botts all flavoured jelly beans please" As the old lady started picking them up she told him it would be "9 galleons and 7 knuts" Ashley winced at her voice and handed her the money as Andy collected the sweets.  As Andy was eating a earwax flavoured jelly bean a boy with long black hair rushed in. "Oi what do you think you're doing?" Ashley pounced on the boy. "I'm sorry, its just that everyone wants me out there."          "What do you mean they want you?" Andy asked cautiously "Well they want to hit me don't they? Just because I gave them a pair of binoculars which had black paint around the eye rims" Andy looked at Ashley and grinned "well we cant have them hitting you now can we? You can hang round with us if you want"  "really? Thanks the names Jinxx."  "Jinxx what?" Ashley inquired but he just shook his head "I'm Andy Biersack and this is Ashley Purdy" "Nice to meet you, but if I'm going to be in your 'gang' can my friend CC as well?" Jinxx asked politely. "Sure, the more the merrier!" Andy jokes. Jinxx walks out to get a boy who looks like him. "Hi I'm CC" his voice is deep and rich. "urgh im Andy and this is Ashley, so is CC your real name or nickname?" Andy tries to imitate CC's voice. "My real name is Christian Coma but no-one calls me that plus ive been enrolled as CC just as Jinxx has been enrolled as Jinxx." "cool, umm I think we better put our robes on now" Ashley inputs.

      When the group of boys step off the Hogwarts express they get asked if they are brothers. They laugh and say friends but next time agree to say brothers. As they step on to these magical boats which row themselves Andy fights the urge to push Ashley into the water, Although he will cause some events to happen this year he wants to make a good first impression.  As soon as they step foot on dry land they are whisked off to the Great Hall where a green crumpled hat is reciting a poem. As soon as it finishes Professor McGonagall starts calling peoples names out, after 17 people Andy's name is called out when the hat is placed on his head it shouts out "RAVENCLAW!" A big whoop is let out after 7 people CC is called out and is also placed in Ravenclaw. Ashley and Jinxx are getting nervous that they won't be placed in Ravenclaw. After what seems an age Ashley's name is called out and he's placed in Ravenclaw. The guy who was in front of him looked a lot like them he decided he would mention it to Andy. Jinxx was the last person to be called out and he was about to be placed in Slytherin but the hat heard him whispering "Not slytherin please anything but slytherin!" The hat heard him and decided "RAVENCLAW!"

   CC was eating and sitting next to a shy,small ginger girl just as he was about to say something to her Ashley was there wrapping his arm around her waist.

~*~*~*~ Andy's POV~*~*

    Ashley always chats the girls up. He is disgusting! I'm going to be the poor guy who helps her back up after Ash has pushed her away. CC looked as if he was about to say something to her. She seems pretty but i havent been able to see her face properly yet as there is a curtain of ginger hair between us. I hope Ash dates her or CC (or me?) nah she wouldnt go for me,as everyone says im just an emo who is overweight and should go die. She notices me looking at her and starts to blush i look away not wanting to blow anything before ive even spoken to her. she slides up to me "hey" she says quitely i look up and see her hazel eyes,there are so pretty. "hey" i say back "my names Andy" i say holding my hand out. she takes it and tells me her name.
