I sighed, it was cold out here on the balcony but I didn't really care. The morning was peaceful with no one around as I'am almost positive this is a hidden place. I found it in third year when I got tired of the Slytherin's taunts. It was my escape, the balcony over looked the grounds and the lake with mountains in the distance. I checked my watch seeing it as 7:57 it was time to go to class. I sighed once more then said the charm I preform every morning, celaverimus. It makes me look duller, gathering less attention so hopefully I'm not taunted as much and left alone. I then gathered my stuff and courage and left the room. The hallways were busy so I stayed as close to the wall as I could. People bumped me in the shoulder as walked to transfiguration, Ethan Sames whispered mudblood in my ear but I just kept walking. This an everyday thing, I handled worse.
