------------------------------------------------------------------------

Joyce was a wreck. She paced the living room while she waited for Buffy to get home. Every now and then Joyce would glance hatefully at the letter addressed to her daughter. The letter brought back some of Joyce’s worst memories. Images of her husband, Hank Summers, being consumed by the Dark Arts, and to lost to be brought back. Joyce avoided that world, a world of magic, since her husbands’ downfall. He was long gone after Buffy was born, and I figured that he died, so that’s what I told Buffy.

But this is Buffys decision. Buffy has to make a choice whether our not to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry. I can no longer pull wool over her eyes to keep her safe. She is a witch, and she hasn’t even noticed. Sometimes I wish that I was raised in a non-magical muggle family, things would be so simple. This wouldn’t be happening. Joyce was so deep in thought that she didn’t even hear Buffy walk through the back door.

I walked into the kitchen and rubbed my sandy feet on the mat in front of the back door and headed straight to the refrigerator to grab something to eat. One look into the freezer and I was furious. “Mom! Did you eat all the cookie dough ice cream again?” I guess I well have to resort to frozen yogurt.

Joyce jumped at her daughter voice and walked to the coffee table, picked up Buffys letter and headed into the kitchen to find Buffy eating some strawberry frozen yogurt. Her face had that look that just said ‘I’m mad, you ate my food, GRR’ I laughed inwardly.

“Hey Buffy, how was your day?” Joyce said with a nervous voice. She wasn’t really interested in Buffys answer, but worried about the letter clutched in her hand.

“It was awesome. We went to the beach, then back to Alice’s house, and then went to the bronze for a couple of hours. There where tons of cute guys.” Buffy looked at her mother. She seemed a little too tense about something. Buffy saw the letter in her hand and thought that it must be bad news. “Mom? What’s wrong? Whose letter is that?” I asked in a worried voice. My mom looked like crap.

“Here its yours.” Joyce handed the letter to her daughter, and she look at it then back up to Joyce with questionable eyes. “Just read it, I’ll explain everything when you’re finished.”

I turned from my mothers glaze to look at the yellow envelope that was placed in my hand. It was somewhat heavy and has my name and address printed in pretty emerald ink on the front. I turned it over to find a seal with the letter H. I open the letter careful not the harm the parchment that it contains and pulled the paper out and I started to read. My eyes are full of confusion and shock as I read:

HOGWARTS SCHOOL of WITCHCRAFT and WIZARDRY
------------------------------------
Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore (Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc., Chf. Warlock, Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. Of Wizards)

Dear Mrs. Summers,

We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed list of all necessary books and equipment

Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later then July 31.

Yours sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall,
Deputy Headmistress

Buffy finished reading her letter and looked at her mother for some reason that this was a joke. She only saw truth in her eyes. “You have got to be kidding me. What the hell is going on?” I said.

“I’m sorry honey, I should have told you sooner. Please let me explain!” she pleaded.

“I’m not mad, mom. I’m just don’t understand. This school, is it real?”

“Yes, honey, your father and I went there. I stopped magic after he died, and you where born.” My mom walked over and hugged me “I didn’t want you to belong to that world. I was to scared to tell you. Me and your father where witches and Wizards.”

“Are you letting me go?” I asked hopefully.

“If you want to, dear. Everything well be strange. There are a lot of things I need to tell you about that world before you become a member of it.”

“Like, um, what does it mean by we await your owl?”

After about three very interesting hours later, my mom had explained the basics of the magical world. She told me about muggles, and about certain magic’s. She told me about her time at Hogwarts, and about some of the stuff that I well be getting at Diagon Alley the next day. She was very brief but I absorbed every detail, and I was so excited. My first thought was to call my friend Alice, but my mom said I couldn’t tell her about Hogwarts. The fact that Muggles aren’t supposed to know about the school, and the fact that magic really exists. I never told my friend Alice a lie, and I well miss her so much. Mom told me I can owl letters to the house, and she would personally deliver them to her, and that made me feel better.

“That’s all the basics. If you have any more questions, just ask.” Joyce said to Buffy.

“Ok, mom. I’m going upstairs to my room. I need to think a little.” I got up and headed to the stairs.

“Where going to diagon alley tomorrow, so don’t stay up to light!” mom said as I headed to my room. My mind still going into circles from all the new information, and I don’t think I well sleep much. “Ok mom! Goodnight.”

I walk into my room and collapse on my bed. I just can’t believe that in two nights from now I wont be sleeping in this bed, but in some dorm at a school that teaches magic. I hope that I well fit in, and make some new friends. I really wish that my dad was here, and even though I never met him I know he would have been proud. I turn over to look at the framed picture on my nightstand. It’s the only picture of my father that I have. It’s a picture of my mom and dad at there wedding. I close my eyes and whip the silence tears away, and allow myself to sleep.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter 2: Diagon Alley

Joyce walked into Buffys room at seven thirty in the morning. She was surprising happy that Buffy is going to Hogwarts. It was like yesterdays fears where long gone.

“Raise and shine my little one!” Joyce said as she headed to the window and opened it to let some of the morning rays in. Then she walked to Buffy bed reach down and shook her a little. I rolled over.

“Mom! Go away! Let me sleep!” I said yawning at the same time, and the words came out a lot higher pitched then usual. *Why me? *

“Come on, dear. You got a long day ahead of you, and you need to be up to enjoy it.” Joyce said while jumping on the bed cheerfully. “Oh, and breakfast is almost ready. Take a shower, and then come down to eat. You can pack your stuff after breakfast.” Mom left the room and headed downstairs a bounce in her step. *My mother is very strange*

“Ok, ok, I’m up!” I got out of bed and stumbled to the bathroom where *Thank God* her clothes where already laid out. I got undressed and stepped in. Enjoying how the water as it finally started to wake me up.

--------------------------------------------------------

I walked into the kitchen, to find a very perky Joyce in the kitchen just finishing cooking “Mom, you haven’t been eating my stash of chocolate again! Have you?” I said while laughing at the way she was literally dancing around.

“No. I didn’t touch your chocolate. I’m just happy.” Joyce said while pointing a wooden spoon at me with mock warning. *Oh I’m so scared*

“Ok, mom.” I said with sarcasm in my voice. I set at the kitchen table, and wait for my food. My mom brings me a plate of blueberry French toast. *Ymm, my favorite! * I kind of like this highly hyper mom she’s more fun.

"So what’s on the agenda for today?" I ask before I take a sip of some cold milk.

"We will get your stuff packed first. After that, like I told you last night, we well head to the airport and fly to London. When we get to London we well stay the night at hotel and the next day we well go shopping for you school stuff, and then get you off to your new school." Joyce replied as she started cleaning the kitchen.

"Sounds like where going to be busy for the next couple of days. Thanks mom, for letting me go."

"It's fine with me. I'm just going to miss you so much."

--------------------------------

After eating breakfast I picked up the phone and called my friend Alice. I told her that I was going to a foreign private school somewhere in England and that I well be back on holiday breaks. I told her she could meet me at the house before I head to the airport today.

“See, that’s not really lying Buffy.” My mom said trying to convince me that I didn’t lie to Alice, to make me feel better. No matter what she says, it’s still lying.

“I guess I’m just really going to miss my friends. That’s all. No more tears.” I said while heading up to my room to pack some clothes and other stuff. I decided to bring most of my CD’s and my Walkman. My mother told me that they didn’t allow those things, but she isn’t looking. One of the worst things about Hogwarts is that you cannot practice magic off campus. That means all summer non-magic Buffy. Which sucks. She told me that if you do it once its ok, but twice you could get a warning and maybe kicked out of school for abusing the magic’s. Which is bad.

I finally got all my worthy possessions packed into one really large trunk and called my mother up to help me bring it downstairs. She walked into the room and on her first attempt to help me pick the trunk up she feel on her butt.

“Gosh young lady, what do you have in there? Bricks!?” she said as she got up. Eventually we both got a good grip on the trunk and started to head for the stairs.

“What? A teenage girl has needs, mom.” I said almost tripping on some loose carpet halfway down the hallway.

About ten minutes later we finally got down stairs we where out of breathe. “So mom, how much money can I have for shopping? For school stuff of course.” I said hoping that I can get some extra money to buy me some neat stuff.

“Well, I do have some money lifted in gringotts when I used to have a job at the ministry of magic. I haven’t spent any of that money yet.”

“Gringotts?” I said.

“It’s the wizards bank. Its guarded by some really rued goblins.” My mom said while giggling.

“Ok, that’s cool. I just can’t wait to get to Diagon Alley. I really want to shop.”

The cab pulled up that’s going to take us to the airport. I guy came out and helped with the trunk then I waited for Alice to show up. After about five minutes of waiting Alice’s mother pulled in the driveway and a very sad brown haired girl jumped out of the almost still moving van.

“Alice!” I yell as I walk to her and give her a huge hug “I’m going to miss you so much.”

“Me too.” Alice says. She says as she releases me from my hug. I can tell she’s been crying.

“I’m going to write to you every chance I get, I promise.” I say as Alice hands me a little package.

“It’s a care pack. There some candy bars for the plane, and a magazine. I see you on Christmas break. Right?” Alice says with a hopeful voice.

“Thanks for the care pack. I think we come home for thanksgiving. I’ll send a letter when I find out. I’ll be sure to tell you about all the boys too.” I say as I start to get into the car. I close the cab door, and roll down the window. “Take care, Alice. I’m going to miss you so much.” With a wave my mom and me finally leave home to go to Sunnydale Airport. Soon I well be in good ole’ England our wherever that damn school is.

--------------------------------

The plane ride sucked. I got sick from the twenty candy bars Alice gave me. I knew I shouldn’t have eaten them, but I was bored. It took me an hour to find my trunk, which almost got put on a separate flight. After a thirty-minute drive around the streets of London we found a small cheap hotel and settled for the night. It was hard to sleep though because the stupid toilet made funny noises, and I was so nervous about tomorrow.

My mom and me lifted the hotel early in the morning. Mom decided to walk to Diagon Alley because it was so close by. After about ten long minutes walking we finally stopped in front of a tiny grubby-looking pub. If my mom hadn’t directed me to its front door I would have never believe it existed, and for some reason I don’t think anyone but us can see it. My mom said the place was famous. For such a famous place, it was very dark and shabby. There where a variety of people though. Some old ladies setting around a table glancing into what seemed to be a crystal ball. There where a couple of teens my age but didn’t look up at me when I walked in.

My mom directed me to a door that looked like it headed into the back room. When I walked in I found that there stood a huge brick wall in front of me.

“Um, what do we do now?” I asked my mom. I was confused, this looked like a dead end to me.

“Three up…two across…” my mom muttered.

“Hello, still confused here?” I ask as she starts taping on the bricks.

“Right, stand back buffy.” She says.

The bricks all of a sudden started moving all by themselves. They started moving so that a small hole could be seen. Then the hole grew and grew, and soon there was a huge archway. Once the bricks stopped moving I stared ahead in complete shock. There was a cobbled street that twisted and round into corners out of my sight.

“Welcome To Diagon Alley.” my mom says while her arms stretch to show off the surroundings. I turned back to the wall we just walked through and the bricks where magically closing the archway.

"Wow." I couldn’t believe my eyes. This alley was huge, and it had to be impossible that anyone non-magical didn’t notice it. My mom and me slowly walked down the street and we stopped every once in a while to look at some of the shops window displays. The alley wasn’t that crowded; yet you could tell this was a busy day.

"Its amazing, isn’t it?" my mom said referring to the variety of shops "This place is hidden by some very powerful magic’s, and so is your new school." she said while opening her purse to retrieving a small brass key. She looked at it and let out a small sigh.

"What does that open?" I ask pointing to the key that my mother got out of her purse.

"It opens me and your fathers safe at Gringotts. I haven’t opened it in years, and I have no clue how much money we had in it the last time I was there." Joyce said.

"Oh. So are we going to gringotts now?"

"You don’t need to go, and you can go window shopping if you like. Plus the lines there a usually long."

"Its ok I guess. I can hang out around here, and when well you be finished?"

"We can meet at Flourish and Blotts in a hour. It’s the book store, and while your there you can get together the books on your school list."

“Ok, I’ll be fine. I well enjoy window shopping.” I said.

“Bye, honey. Be good.” She said as she turned and starting walking towards an enormous white building that towered above all the others. It had big bronze colored double doors, and had goblins as guards.

Once my mother entered the bank I reached into my pocket for my school supplies list, and the strange thing is that this is the first time I have actually looked at it. I guess I was just too busy. The list doesn’t look that long, but the items sound pricey.

First Years Supply List:

UNIFORM:
1. Three pair of plain work robes. Black. (Although you are required to buy robes, you only need them for classes. Any other time you can wear you regular clothes)
2. One plain pointed hat (black) for day wear (also for class only)
3. One pair of protective gloves (dragon hide or similar)
4. One winter cloak (Black, silver fastenings)
Please note that all pupils’ clothes require nametags.

COURSE BOOKS:
All students should have one copy of each of the following.

Standard book of spells (grade 1)
A beginners’ Guide to Transfiguration
One thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi

1 Wand
1 Cauldron (pewter, standard size 2)
1 set glass or crystal phials

I read over the list again, and I’m hoping mom well let me buy a cat. I’ve always wanted one, and this seems like the perfect time to get one. The worst thing so far is the robes, and the pointed hats. I really don’t look forward to wearing those.

--------------------------------

Joyce summers walked into Gringotts threw the first set of burnished bronze doors. Once threw those she was faced with another pair of doors, silver this time, and this time there where words of warning engraved on them.

Enter, Stranger, but take heed
Of what awaits the sin of greed,
For those who take, but do not earn,
Must pay most dearly in their turn.
So if you seek beneath our floors
A treasure that was never yours,
Thief, you have been warned, beware
Of finding more then treasure there.

Once threw the silver doors Joyce was in a vast marble hall. All around goblins where pushing gold and jewels, and up ahead on stools where even more of them weighing coins with brass scales.

Joyce approached a free goblin at the withdrawal section. “Welcome to Gringotts, how may I help you.” Said the goblin when she approached.

“I’m Joyce summers and I want to withdraw some money from my account.” Joyce said as she handed the goblin her key. He looked at it closely at it and nodded his head in approval.

“Sir, if I can ask a small favor. When was my last withdrawal?” I goblin looked at her a then back at his paper work. He got off his stool and waved for Joyce to follow him. They reach a big desk and he moved behind it. From the floor he retrieved several stacks of folders which must be the withdraw history.


“Ah, Hank and Joyce Summers account, right?” Joyce nodded a yes “You made a withdraw earlier this month and several deposits since May.”

Joyce now was totally confused. The only other person to have the key to the safe was Hank himself. He couldn’t be alive. *Could he?* “Thanks. I think I well withdraw 1000 galleons please.”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I put my list back into my pocket and think about what shop I can go window-shopping at first. I start walking towards a shop that’s called Ollivanders, and it looks like their selling wands. I didn’t even see the red headed girl when I walked right into her making her jump back in shock and drop her bag. Which unfortunately made all her books drop to the ground.

“Oh my..Im so sorry…didn’t mean to walk into..” The red head girl stuttered.

“Hey, its my fault. Let me help.” I reach down and help her pick up her books. Most have the same titles of the ones I’m getting. “I’m sorry about your books. Didn’t mean to bump into you.” I said to the red head as she starts placing all her books into her bag at was about to walk off.

“Hey! Are you going to attend Hogwarts?” I ask.

“Yeah, I’m going to Hogwarts. Picking my school stuff up today. You?” the read head said as she turns and walked back to me.

“Yup. I’m going to Hogwarts. I’m going to be a first year. This is my first time in Diagon Alley, that’s why I wasn’t paying any attention. Everything is kind of new to me,” I said while staring at my feet.

“I’m Willow Rosenberg. You want to hang?” willow said hoping that she doesn’t get rejected. Willow has never had many friends, and was allows a loner at her old middle school.

“I love too. I’m Buffy summers. I was window shopping while I was waiting for my mom to return from the bank.” I said as me and willow start walking.

“So how old are you?” I ask curiously to willow.

“I’m thirteen but I’ll be fourteen in a month.” Willows replies as they stop in front of the store called Quality Quiddicth Supplies. We walk inside and its full of people. I look around taking in the surroundings. The store has brooms, robes, kit, books, and tons of other stuff I have no clue what to name.

“I just turned fourteen over the summer.” I say as I look in all directions to think about where she wants to check out first. I stop dead in my tracks. There in far right corner of the shop is the hottest guy that I’ve have ever she looks like he is inspecting one of the brooms by looking at it carefully. He has a rather larger black leather coat on, and has bleach blonde hair. He has high check bones, and looks like the typical bad boy type. One of his friends taps him on the shoulder and he turns more in my view and we each get a glance at each other before I turn away and blush.

“Breath Buffy, Breathe” I whisper to myself. I walk behind willow whose is looking at some Quidditch Books and tap her on the shoulder. She jumps up with a yelp of surprise.

“Don’t do that! You’re going to give me a heart attack!” she says as she places a hand over her chest, and starts to giggle. I point to the cute guy in the corner. “Oh..” she says.

“That guy is really hot. Do you think I should go over there and say hi?” I ask. My face still bright red from earlier and I wonder what well happen if him and me actually come face-to-face. I’ll probably do something really embarrassing.

“I don’t know Buffy. That’s spike, and he is nothing but trouble.” Willow says with a slight warning tone.

“Well what about that brown haired guy? He’s cute.” I said and I point to the guy who is heading to the cash register. Willow turn more red then I did. *Oh look what we have here, Willow got a crush*

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Spike was checking out one of the newest brooms in the Quidditch shop. I really want to make the Quidditch team this year so I want the best broom. My friend Oz taps me on the shoulder and points to a girl that just step into the shop, and boy is she beautiful. “What you think?” Oz says. Then returns to his shopping.

“She’s ok..” I say trying to not show my real interest in her. She’s not tall, but not short just like me, and has long dark blonde hair. She skinny and has great tastes in clothes. She looks like my type, but that doesn’t matter. What really matters is that she not a complete airhead. I turn back to Oz who is staring at the red head that is talking to the blonde girl now. *Oh look what we have here, Oz got a crush*

“What about the red head Oz? She’s cute too. Looks like your type.” Spike tells oz and he blushes and heads to the checkout. I follow him to the checkout line, and place my item on the counter. I got a broom cleaning kit, a practice snitch, and book about Flying Tactics. I’ve decided to come back later tonight to get my broom.

“What wrong Oz. Cat got your tongue?” I laugh and Oz sends me a glare.

--------------------------------

Willow and me spent a good half an hour looking at the stuff at the Quiddicth shop. Willow bought some little action figures of people on brooms, and a couple of books to teach you how to fly. Things got really boring after spike lefted the shop and since then all I’ve wanted to do was go find him. *That’s right Buffy, go stalked him! I bet it’s a turn on. I’m such a loser.*

Me and willow lefted the Quiddicth shop and walked to another shop, which looked like a lot of fun. The big purple a yellow sign out front read: Gambol and Japes Wizarding Joke Shop.

I walked in the shop and was amazed at all the neat items. There were all different kinds of gag gifts, and special spell books for weird charms. Willow shrieked as some guy with dark brown hair drop a fake spider down her shirt.

“Xander! Stop that you jerk.” Willow yelled at him, and then threw the fake spider, which was actually moving, at Xanders head bouncing off and landed magically on a shelf so it didn’t drop on the floor.

“Hey, how you doing willow? Whose your friend?” Xander while offering willow some fake gum. Like she was actually going to fall for it.

“I’m fine Xander, and this is Buffy.” I gave Xander a small wave. I’m not really interested in him. She was busying looking through some books about charms.

Me willow and Xander left the shop in about ten minutes because the shop owner kicked Xander out for using a stink bomb. So we decided to go to the ice cream parlor that was right next to the bookstore.

Willow bought me an ice cream and I promised her that I was going to pay her back as soon as I get my money from my mom. I just started licking my ice cream when Spike approached the table and sat down.

“Hello red, whelp. Whose your friend?” he said pointing at Buffy. I give him a small smile.

“Oh, that’s Buffy. It’s her first time at Diagon Alley. Be nice.” Willow said while eating her root beer ice cream.

I blush and squeaked “hi” before I start to blush a deep red again. *I have to get out of here before I do something really embarrassing*

Spike was really starting to like this Buffy girl. She was really cute, and was even cuter when she blushed. I can tell I’m making her uncomfortable, in a good way, because she doesn’t even look at me. *Ego much?*

“I have to go to the book store. To get books. The books on my list. Bye.” I stutter and I walk from the table a head into Flourish and Blotts bookstore.

Spike watches her go and decides to follow her into the bookstore. “See you guys later.” Spikes leaves the table a walks into the bookstore behind Buffy.

Willow watches as Spike follows Buffy into the Book Store. She notices right off the back that Spike didn’t say something rude the whole time Buffy was at the table eating, and that was unlike spike. Which means he got a crush or something. That means I need to get Buffy away from him. He is totally evil.

--------------------------------

When Buffy arrived in the bookstore she was surprised to see her mom already in there. She waved and then held up a bag, which contained my schoolbooks. *I guess she shopped for me*

"Hey, mom. How did your trip to bank go?" I asked as I walked to the front counter where her mother was talking to the shopkeeper.

"It was good. We still have money." Joyce lied. All she’s been thinking about since she left Gringotts was the possibility that Hank Summers is still alive. Last time Joyce saw him he was addicted to the dark magic’s and later Joyce had gotten word that he died. I just figured that it was the truth, and accepted it. When I was pregnant with Buffy, Hank was never home. He was always practicing magic’s with people that Joyce didn’t want to be around. She lefted one night and basically disappeared. She moved out of the country, and had hoped that she would never see him again.

"Well I had fun. I made two maybe three friends today. There’s Willow, she’s got red hair, and you can tell she’s really smart. There is this guy Xander, he is defiantly going to be the class clown. Also there was this guy named spike, but I think that he doesn’t like me. He kind of ignored me, but seems cool." I grab my bag of books and pull one out and start to go through the pages looking at the pictures.

"That’s great Buffy, I'm glad that you’re going to fit in. So where do you want to shop first?" I put my books back in her bag and started to walk to the exit.

"There this really cool pet shop, and I was hoping that I could get a cat. The school says I can bring an animal, and I don’t like toads our owls that much." I wasn’t paying attention for the second time today and ran directly into another person.

"Ek!" I squeaked as I drop my bag on the floor. "What is it with me, and running into people today." I say out loud as I reach down and start to pick up my schoolbooks.

"I’m sorry, I didn’t look where I was going." I say not even looking to see who it was. Then the person she bumped bent down and into started to help pick up my books. Then I saw a familiar bleach blonde hair and my heart fluttered.

"Hey, spike." I said as I put my books back in my bag.

"Hello, luv." He replies. he has one of those deep english accents, and It just makes me weak in the knees.

"Sorry about bumping into you. It just isnt safe to be around me today." I reply, and he lets out a small chuckle. *Yay! I made him laugh.*

My mom walked past and out the shop sending a glare at spike, which made me giggle.

“Well I got to go shopping now. With my mom. I’ll see you around?” I stuttered out. I have no clue why I’m so nervous. Oh wait, yes I do, he’s totally hot. That’s why*

“Yeah, I’ll see you at Hogwarts.” Spike replied.

“Good.” I say. Then I bolt out the shop my bright red face hidden under my hands.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

My mom and me arrived at Kings Cross Station the next morning. I was so tired because all the Shopping I did yesterday. I got every item on my school list, and more. My mom actually let me get the cutest white cat that I named frosty. I got a nice wand from Ollivanders. It was a twelve-inch long, and had a unicorn hair embedded at it tip. I got my robes, and other stuff at a variety of shops.

I look at the train ticket my mom handed me in the car, and I have to go to Platform nine and three-quarters. Which I don’t even believe exists. We walk through a large archway where the trains are, and we pass by several people.

--------------------------------------------------------

My mom and me arrived at Kings Cross Station early in the morning. We where both tired from all the shopping in Diagon Alley, and it took forever to get out of bed. With one hand I pushed all my stuff ahead of me in a cart, and with the other hand held my Ticket to get onto the Hogwats Express. I stopped walking when we got to the platforms, and I was confused. I saw platform nine and ten, but no nine and three Quarters. My ticket tells me to go to that platform.

“Mom, where’s my platform? This ticket has got to be wrong.” I say as I look at my mom who is only smiling sweetly back. That smile, I know it well. She knows something I don’t.

“This is where the trip gets fun. See that wall up ahead.” My mother points to brick wall that separates number nine and ten platforms. I nod my head.

“All you have to do to get to your train is walk straight into the wall. You don’t stop and don’t be scared because you well go right threw it. Its magic.” I can tell my mom is enjoying this.

“Are you going with me?” I ask.

“Of course I’m going to make sure you get onto the train. I’ll meet you at you platform. You go first.” She points to the wall, and I doubt my mom for a minute.

“Ok, here I go.” I start to walk very fast towards the wall that separates the two platforms. Suddenly I feel a rush of air like I’m being pull through, and I end up on the other side of the wall. Up ahead is my train, and I can see people all around getting in it. I turn back around when I hear a noise, and I’m facing a fairly happy mother.

“I’m so nervous mom.” I’m starting to get big butterflies in my stomach and all I want to do is go back home in Sunnydale California.

“You well be fine, and you can always send me letters. Also there are holidays.” I can tell she doesn’t really want to see her baby go, but this is something I have to do. I need to learn magic its part of my life now.

“Come on, let’s get you settled on the train.” She says grabbing my cart that has my stuff. I reach down for my new cat that my mom bought for me. He is white and I’ve called him Frosty *how original* I thought.

I followed my mom onto the train, and a nice man floats my trunk into a compartment above my head as I take a seat. She reaches down and gives me a hug and kisses me on my cheek.

“My baby, all grown up.” My mom said on the verge of tears. She did this when I had my first date to a middle school dance.

“Don’t worry I’ll be fine. Really.” With one last wave my mom leaves the train. I’m officially terrified. The train starts moving, and I wave to my mom threw the window. I sink into my seat with a pout, and close my eyes hoping I could sleep a little.

“Buffy!” I wake up to see willows face plastered with a small smile.

“Hey willow. What you up to?” I ask. I’m so glad to see a familiar face.

“Nothing much, I almost missed the train though. Can I set in this cabin with you?”

“Sure. So how long does it take to get to Hogwarts anyway?” I ask hoping that the little bookworm I’m talking to can tell me some answers.

“It well takes a couple of hours. It should be night when we get there. I can’t wait to be sorted.” Willow says with a slight bounce and she walks over to set in the seat in front of me.

“Sorting? What’s that?”

“My goodness you really are all new to this magic stuff.” I nod with agreement. She continues to tell me more information.

“When we get to school we well get sorted into school houses. Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and gryffindor. They’re like teams, and you compete against each other in sports and in class. I hope I get into slytherin. My whole family has been in that house, and I don’t plan on letting them down.”

“Well I hope I’m in that house too. I don’t want to be alone. You know what I mean.”

“Yes, I do.” she says sadly.

There was a knock on our cabin door. I got up to answer it and I see a very happy Xander and a very annoyed Spike in front of me.

“Hey, guys! Wanna come join the party?” they accepted my invitation and Xander sat next to willow, and spike sat next to me. I decided to make conversation.

“So, what house do you too want to be in?” I asked Xander and Spike.

“I don’t know,” says Spike “Either Ravenclaw or Slytherin. My mother was in Slytherin, and my father was in Ravenclaw. Either one would make them proud.”

“I don’t care. As long as I’m with willow.” Says Xander. He gives willow a small grin, and turns to look at me.

“How about you Buffy?” Xander asks.

“Um, willow wanted to be in slytherin. So I guess I rooting for that house.”

My conversation was cut off by a knock at the door, and someone opening it. It was a cheerful looking old lady and she appeared to have a cart of food.

“Anything off the cart, dears?” She asks sweetly.

“Sure what you got, and how much does it cost?” I ask as I get my small purse with my mom had place one hundred galleons and several other coins in. It was my spending money for the school year.

I stepped out into the hallway and gather a couple of each type of candy. Which was a lot. And paid the nice old lady twelve silver sickles and two Knuts. She had to point them out to me because I already forgot which where sickles and which where Knuts. I suddenly felt very stupid. I walked back into the cabin my arms full of candy and something butter beer for us to drink.

“My god, women. You must be hungry!” said spike as soon as he saw all the food I had.

“What? I thought that you guys might want something.” I said dropping all the candy into a spear train seat. A soon as the candy dropped Xander and Spike sprinted over to see what I got.

“That stuff must of cost a small fortune.” Willow said as Xander pass her some chocolate frogs.

“Nah, not really. I don’t think. I still have tons of those big gold coins.” I said opening my little velvet purse to show her. Her eyes nearly popped out.

“What?” I said

“That’s a lot of money! Where did you get so much?” willows asks.

“My mom gave it too me. How much is this worth in muggle money. I just found out like two days ago I was a witch.”

“Let me think.” Willow tapped her forehead “About nine hundred dollars, and that’s just the galleons.”

I gave a small squeak, I hadn’t released it was that much. My mom and me spent about three hundred galleons shopping. I only had about a hundred.

My cat frosty jumped from his hiding place in the cabinet above the seats into spike lap. He jumped in surprise and the cat gave him a hiss.

“Frosty! Don’t be mean.” I say as I pick up the cat and place it in my lap. It purrs as I pat its head.

“Cute cat.” Says Xander. He reaches into his coat and brings forward a small toad. It was very cute.

“This is tumbles, he my toad, and he does nothing.” He placed the frog back into his pocket.

“I got a owl, but its somewhere else on the train. He should be in owl tower when we get to school.” Says willow.

“I don’t have a pet yet.” Says spike. He scoots closer to me so are elbows are barely touching. *Breathe. I just have to breathe* I turn to him and give him a sweet smile.

*Breathe Spike. Just breathe* Spike thinks. He gets so nervous around her. That has never happened to him before. *I’m the big bad; I don’t get weak in the knees around cute little blonde girls. That just doesn’t happen.* I turn and look at Buffy, she give me the cutest smile. *Oh no. She’s done it. She’s gotten to me now.* I turn my head the other way and look out the train’s window. I watch the countryside of London pass me by. Where almost at Hogwarts, and I’m so nervous, and its not just Buffy. It’s everything. Its time to prove to my dad that I have the same power he does.

*He is ignoring me* Buffy thinks as spike turns from my glaze to look out the window. I decided to take a nap because willow and Xander are already there. Xander and Willow look really cute together. Maybe I can get them together. Unless they are already are. I close my eyes, and fall to sleep. Not noticing that when I do I rest my head onto spike arm.

I turn from looking out the window and Buffy is already asleep. Her head gently lay on my arm *Lightweights* I thought. They can even stay up for a couple of hours. Spike not noticing he was even tired too. He laid his head against the glass window closed his eyes and fell asleep.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

This isnt the orignal chapter..The other is on my computer at home! I'm at my Aunts. This was for the most part what I rembered. later I will replace it. All the major details are in this chapter. The other was more detailed!


-----------------------------------------------------------------
Willow woke up suddenly because of a voice that echoed throughout the train “We will be reaching Hogwarts in five minutes’ time. Please leave your luggage on the train, it will be taken to the school separately” Willow looked at spike and Buffy, and boy was the scene cute. Buffy head was resting on Spikes chest, and his hands where around her waist. They would make a nice couple, she thought. Willow then heard knocks on the other cabin doors and then a knock on hers. The door opened and a tall lady with a blue uniform.

“Come on kids, wake up.” Said a lady well walking in and was about to shake Buffy and Spike.

“I’ll get them up,” said willow while shaking Xander until his eyes shoot open and then he groaned and closed them again.

“Come one Xander! Get the hell up!” she said as she once again starting shaking him. He gave her a friendly push.

“My god woman, can you give me ten more minutes?” said Xander as he fell farther into his seat.

“Where going to be at Hogwarts in five minutes. We need to get up.” She said as she walked over to spike and shook his left arm hoping he was less annoying then Xander was.

“Bloody Hell” I mutter as slowly get up. “What are you my soddin’ alarm clock.” I said to willow.

“No, I’m not a ‘soddin alarm clock’. Where almost there.” Willow said. She pointed to Buffy “Would you get her up. I need to use the restroom.” Willow then turn to Xander and starting to shake him again. After a couple of seconds she gave up and push him to the cabin floor. She giggled and left the cabin.

“Glad to see you await, whelp. Actually, no I’m not.” I said as I slowly nudge Buffy. I don’t really want to get her up. She looks so peaceful asleep, and at least she isn’t all blushy and nervous like this.

“Buffy. Luv, you need to get up.” Spike said. Just being this close to her was killing him. After a few seconds of the normal ‘get away from me’ mumbling she final opens her eyes. Her hazel eyes seem to burn like fire into mine. Like she is trying to figure out what I’m thinking. I look away. As much as I like this bundle of cuteness named Buffy I wont get involved again. My last girlfriend Dru cheated on me, and with my ex-best friend no doubt. I get up and decide to get off the train now because it just stopped. Maybe I can find Oz; maybe he can give me advice.

I open my eyes lazily and I’m looking into to deep pools of blue. He has the most beautiful eyes. I give him one of the best Buffy smiles, and he looks away. I shake my head and then realize where I am. I’m on a train, and I’m going to hogwarts. I yawn and Spike gets up and leaves the cabin. I get a strange feeling that this guy doesn’t like me at all. Every time that I try to be nice to him he turns our walks away. Maybe it’s me, and he isn’t interested. I thought I wasn’t ready after Angel. Him and me dated all through middle school. Then he started spreading rumors that him and me had done ‘the dirty deed’. I broke up with him right before summer, and I spent the rest setting at the bronze with my friends trying to forget him.

Willow walked into the cabin with a cheerful smile. “Hey Buffy, glad to she your awake.” He said to me.

“Yup. I guess we should get off the train now. It stopped.” I say as I get up. I start to walk out of the cabin. Willow and Xander follow slowly behind me. I walk down the hallway and out the train doors, and notice how dark it is. I must have slept for a couple of hours.

A few moments later a tall man yelled “Firs’ years! Firs’ years over here!” he had a weird voice.

“I guess that’s us.” I say as me willow, and Xander walk towards the small crowd that is forming around the tall man.

“Where did Spike go?” asked willow.

“I don’t know, he lefted after he woke me up. I don’t think he likes me very much.” I said my head bowed down in defeat. The crowd of first years started walking down a small dirt path, which lead to a lake. Across the lake was a huge castle like building. It had several towers, and it was beautiful.

“Wow. That’s where we are going to live at!” said a very excited Willow. She was basically skipping down towards some boats that the others where getting in.

“I guess so.” I said.

The tall man yelled “No more then four people per boat!”

I walked to a free boat, and sat down. Willow, and Xander soon followed.

“Everyone in?” yelled the tall man. “My name is Hagrid. Right then-forward!”

Soon they reached the sandy shore that was in front of Hogwarts. I lake was very beautiful, but I fear that there are some strange creatures in there, besides fish. A set of doors swung open and a lady with black hair stared around all the students.

“Ah, the first years. Come this way.” She pointed to the door and everyone began to walk inside the building. “Thank you, Hagrid. I can take them now.”

I walked through a long hall lined with flaming torches. I stood close to Willow because I don’t plan on getting lost in this place. I hear voices coming from a room up ahead. The rest of the students must be already here. I thought at me and willow reached a large archway and soon they where walking into the Dinner Hall. I was full of other students like myself.

“Where about to be sorted.” Stated willow.

“How do we do that?” I ask.

“We set on that stool, and the headmaster places a hat on are heads. It tells us what house we belong in.” willow said.

“Oh.” I said

Everyone came to a sudden stop as an Old man rose from his chair at the table in front of us. That must be the headmaster.

“Hello, first years. I’m Albus Dumbledore. Your headmaster.” He said as he walked down and stood in front of a stool that the sorting hat was setting at. He reached over and picked up the hat and pointed to me. Oh god. In front of everyone?

The dark haired lady asked me my name I replied “Buffy Summers.” She wrote that on a piece of paper and pointed to the stool so I walked over and sat down on it. The headmaster placed the hat on my head and it started to talk to himself. It was mumbling things like ‘got heart’, and ‘lots of potential’. Soon he yelled out “Slytherin!” and Dumbledore pointed to a table on the right where people where clapping and waving me over. I looked over at willow and she gave me two thumbs up.

I set down at the table while looking at a nervous willow with the sorting hat on. Soon it too yelled “Slytherin!” and a very happy Willow bounced over to me and sat down. Xander was next. He sat on the stool and just as the Sorting hat was placed on his head it yelled “Ravenclaw!” and willow let out a sad ‘oh no’.

After a few minutes almost all the first years where sorted. All that was left was a short guy that I saw at the quiddicth shop, spike, and a black haired boy.

Oz set on the stool and after a couple of seconds the hat screamed “Slytherin!” he had a big grin on his face and sat next to willow. She soon had a full blush. Now it was Spikes turn and I felt very nervous.

Please let it be slytherin. Please. Spike thought. Everyone he really knew was in that house, and he didn’t want to be lefted behind. The sorting hat was placed on his head and after a long minute it yelled “Slytherin!” and a huge grin appeared on his face. He walked to oz with his hands on his chest. I can now breathe now. Spike thought.

Spike walked over to the table and sat down next to Buffy. She looked up at him and she had a big smile plaseterd on her face.

“Time to eat!” yell the headmaster and all the empty pans on the table where now replaced with food.

-------------------------------------------

I'm sorry this is such a short chapter. The next chapter "First Day" well be much longer. Promise!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After everyone ate there dinner at the Great Hall, all the Students where lead to their Common Rooms by one of the head students. Buffy and Willow walked next to each other so they wouldn’t get lost, and Spike and Oz where up ahead still talking about Quiddicth teams just like at dinner. Both Willow and me giggled at the great view. We walked up a large marble staircase, and went down several halls tell the head boy stopped at a large painting of a man setting on a throne like a king. The man in the painting was moved and then he got up and said “Password?”

The head boy said, “Lumos, and no one forget it. I well inform you of the new password when I get It.” and the painting moved to show a large hole. Everyone walked through the small pass way and ended up in a large open room with a fireplace burning brightly and several setting chairs.

“This is the Slytherin Common Room.” The head boy said as we walked around “You are not allowed to bring students from other houses here. The girls tower is to the right, and the boys is to the left.” He said pointing in the directions of each dormitory “Boys are not allowed in the girls tower, and girls aren’t allowed in boys. Two students per dorm room, and the rest of the rules well be posted on the bulletin for you to see tomorrow morning. You well receive your class schedules tomorrow, too. Your trunks are in the dorm common room you can put them in you new rooms. Good night.” With that he walked up the staircase to the boys dorms.

Me and Willow got up and we where about to head to the girls dorm when I saw Spike and Oz heading over to us. I poked willow in the side. “Ow!” willow squeaked and poked me back.

“Sorry willow, just wanted to warn you that your lover boy is heading this way.” I said while pointing at Oz.

“Hey girls. We saw you two all alone and thought you needed some company.” Said Oz as he looked at willow. Willow gave him a cute half smile and started rocking back and fourth with her feet.

“Hi!” I said.

“I’m tired. I’ve had a long day. See you later guys.” Willow said walking towards the staircase that leads to the girls’ dorms.

“Yeah me too. See you two in the morning, right? Bye.” I waved goodbye, and ran to catch up to willow.

“Women.” Both oz and Spike said as they watched the two girls ran as fast as they could to there dorms.

I finally caught up to willow, “So, um, do you wanna be roomies?” I said trying to start a conversation.

“Yeah, that would be great. All the other people I know here are guys.” She said as we walked up the staircase to the girls’ common room. The girls common room was much smaller then the main one. It didn’t have a fire place, and only had a couple of chairs. We looked around and found our trunks and then headed to search for our new room.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“I guess this is our new room.” Spike said while throwing his trunk onto a large for poster bed. Beside the bed was a nightstand with a small lamp. He turned it on and he unlocked his trunk.

“Yup, I guess so.” Oz said well looking threw the only window in the room.

“I got some Quiddicth posters that I can hang. Do you mind?” Spike asked while opening his trunk and getting some of his stuff out. He had to change out of the robes they had to wear for the sorting.

“Go ahead. I don’t mind.” Oz said.

“I’m so glad I was sorted into Slytherin. My father would have been a little angry if I wasn’t.” Spike said. While hanging a poster of his favorite Quiddicth team.

“Why is that?” Oz asked while he got out a few green day posters and started hanging them on the wall next to his bed.

“My father life revolves around magic, and he wants me to follow right in his foot steps.” Spike said with some angry in his voice.

Spike father was a very powerful wizard, and he worked for the ministry of magic. At work he was a regular wizard, but when he got home all he did was practice dark arts. He believes that the Master will rise again and he would want the most powerful of his followers at his side. I’ve done the blacks arts, but I don’t want to end up like him.

“Well your father doesn’t seem that bad, Right?” Oz asked as he finished putting his poster up.

“He’s ok. I just wish that my mother were around. That’s all.” Spike said sadly. After he got changed out of his robes and into his boxers he jumped under the covers.

“The girls are really hot at this school.” Said Oz thinking of willow.

“Oh yeah. Totally hot.” Spike said thinking of Buffy. What would she think if she found out about my family? Would she hate me because of who I’m destined to be like? I hope she never finds out.

“Night, spike.” Said Oz as he was falling asleep.

“Night, Oz.” Spike said yawning, and soon going asleep himself.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First Day

----------------------------------------------------------------------

“I really hate these robes. The green, silver, and black just aren’t my colors. There ugly!” Buffy said while looking in the bathroom wall mirror. Willow and me got up early so we could get ready for our first day of classes.

“Just be glad we only have to wear them to class. After that we can pack them away. Yay us!” Willow said. She was also looking in the mirror with a face of true disgust. It wasn’t the fact that the robes where ugly. It was the fact it didn’t show your figure at all, and it makes you look like a black, green, and silver marsh mellow.

“I’ll take catholic school girl outfits over these any day. Plus guys like the Britney look. Right?” Buffy said while putting on some lip-gloss and putting her hair up in a ponytail.

“Yeah I guess.” Willow said. She had no clue what the ‘Britney look’ was. Must be a Muggle look our something?

“I wonder if they gave out class schedules yet. Hopefully we have the same classes together. You’re my study buddy.” Buffy said while putting her make-up away.

“I think that everyone has the same classes. You know just use first years. We got to stick together.” Willow said proudly.

After we officially looked descent we lefted the girls restroom and headed into the Slytherin Common room where half the students where crowded around the bulletin board. The list of what classes you got must be posted there. I walked over to a chair by the fireplace and sat down.

“I guess we have to wait.” Willow said.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

“What classes did we get?” I asked Willow. It was an hour wait tell each of us finally got to see our class schedules. I wonder why they just don’t hand them out. It would have been easier.

“Lets see we both got Care for Magical Creatures 1st period, 2nd period Divination, 3rd period Charms, 4th period Defense Against The Darks Arts, 5th period transfiguration, and 6th period we got Potions” Willow replied. “This is great, we have the same classes!”

“Ok, let’s go gets our books then head to breakfast, I wonder what classes Spike and Oz got.” I said as we got back to our dorm room and got together my schoolbooks, parchment, and my ink/pen set.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

“I can’t wait for the Halloween ball. It should be awesome. Well that’s what the older students have been saying.” Willow said as we walked out of the Slytherin Common Room, and followed some people to the Great Hall for breakfast.

“Yeah that Harmony girl told me that they have a live band and everything. I wonder where we can get our costumes at.” I asked.

“Oh. We can get them at Hogsmeade. Its on your event Calendar we got, and we go every weekend. It’s smaller then Diagon Alley but has tons of gets shops. I went last year to do my Christmas shopping.” Said willow as we walked to the Slytherin table and sat down.

After all the students arrived in the Great Hall the headmaster stood up. He had a long white beard and wore small half moon glasses. I thought he looked like an older Merlin.

“The rules and notices this year is. No one is allowed in the forbidden forest unless accompanied by a teacher our staff member. Trips to Hogsmeade on every Saturday start in two weeks. Quiddicth tryouts are also in two weeks. Most of you already know what the House Cup is but I’ll explain it. At the end of each school year the house with the most House Points win. You earn House Points by being good, and you lose points for being bad. It’s an easy system. That’s all of the announcements at the moment. Thank you, and you can now eat.” Dumbledore sat down in his chair and then the food magically appeared.

“So are you trying out for the Quiddicth team, Spike?” Willow asked spike from across the dinner table. “Buffy and me saw you looking at a couple of brooms at Diagon Alley so I figured that you where interested.” She added as she reached for some scrabbled cheese eggs with her spoon.

“Yeah, I’m going to try out. I don’t know what position yet. Maybe beater since I like to hit things.” Spike said with a huge grin. Inside he was a nervous wreck about the tryouts. It was the one thing besides magic that he could be good at.

“So what classes did you girls get?” asked oz looking at Willow and me. Willow reached pulled out the list. “Lets see we both got Care for Magical Creatures 1st period, 2nd period Divination, 3rd period Charms, 4th period Defense Against The Darks Arts, and 5th period transfiguration. What did you to get?” Willow replied.

“Well we got Care For Magical Creatures together, Charms, and defense against the dark arts together. The rest are a little mixed from yours.” Said oz looking at his list.

“It seems like if you live in the same dorm room you get the same classes.” Said Spike who was normally quite at the table. He always was outgoing on second and the next all moody and secretive. I like it. A man of mystery.

“Yeah. Now me and willow can both get lost finding our classes.” I said while stuffing my face with some hash browns.

“So what do you think your going to wear to the Halloween Ball?” Willow asked.

“Um, I wanted to dress like a gothic faerie you know all black with leather, but that depends on what Hogsmeade has.” I said. I think Spike likes that idea. He raised an eyebrow, and I rolled my eyes. He chuckled and continued to eat.

“Well I have no clue what to wear. Maybe I can be a cat our something. Meow!! Grr..” Willow said while making a scrunched up face.

After we all ate we headed to the school grounds where care for magical creatures where supposed to be taught at. Willow said that the teacher is the person who took us on the boats when we first got here.

All of the students meet in front of Hagrids little hut for class. He opened the door and walked out with a fuzzy brown creature. It made a strange humming noise and it looked just like a furby.

“Good mornin’ class. I’m Hagrid your care for magical creatures class. Today I well just show a variety of mildly harmless creatures. Most are just house hold pets.” Hagrid said as he walked up to the students and allowed them to pet the fuzzy creature he was holding. The creature purred and almost all the girls went ‘aw’ the guys just stood back and looked at the girls.

“This is a mayfout, and there usually found in Ireland living in hollow tree trunks that are near sources of water. There only defense is an electric shock they send out when there scared. It stuns there pray for a couple a seconds till it can hide.” Hagrid then placed the mayfout in a small cage and walked back into his hut. He walked back out with three more small cages.

“I need all of you to get in groups of fours. I’m going to teach you how to feed all this Mayfouts.”

Willow and me walked over and picked up one of the cages and inside where four mayfouts. There was a black and white one, a gray one, a red one, and a pure white one. They where so cute, and someone tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around and it was Spike. He had a cute grin on his face. “So can we be in your group?” he said ‘we’ as he looked at Oz. Oz is a cool guy, and he told us that he was in a rock band that him and a few friends had put together. I know that he has a crush on Willow. Even though I just meet him like a couple of day ago I can just tell.

“Yeah sure. Spike, here's yours.” I picked up the red Mayfout and handed it too Spike. Are hands briefly touched and he pulled away from me like it was fire. He nearly dropped his Mayfout.

“Can I ask you something?” I said.

“Sure. What is it, luv?” he says back with that sexy British accent.

“I want to get Willow and Oz together. They would make a cute couple. Just look at them.” I said pointing to Oz and willow. They where both giggling while playing with there Mayfouts.

“They are totally flirting and they just don’t know yet.” I said while shaking my head. My statement having more meaning to it then I planned.

“Well, maybe neither one of them is ready to jump into a relationship. Maybe Oz got his heart ripped out by a no-soul having bitch, and doesn’t want it to happened again.” Spike said in a harsh tone. Dru was his everything. They dated for 3 years straight, and then she just up and goes for the next best thing.

“I don’t think that well happen, Spike. They are too nice to do that to each other.”

“Ok, so how do you plan o-wise-one to get these two together?” Spike asked giving his trademark grin and chocking his head to the side.

“Well, first, you need to talk to Oz and find out if he likes Willow. I’ll go talk to Willow and get her to confess she has a crush on him. Then maybe we can get them to go to Hogsmeade together on a date. We could put the idea of them going to the Halloween Ball together? How’s that plan?” I ask spike.

“Sounds good.” He said. * Anything that would mean more time with you *

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Willow and oz where tickling there Mayfouts. Willow looked as oz. “I need to ask you for a favor.” She said.

“Sure. What is it?” Oz said.

“I need you help getting Spike and Buffy together. They look so perfect together. Look at them. They’re totally flirting.” Willow said while turning and looking at Spike and Buffy. They looked like they where making good conversation, and every once in a while Buffy would turn to Oz and me and give a huge grin.

“I don’t know. Spike told me last night that his last relationship was bad.” Oz said while putting his Mayfout back into its cage.

“I don’t think that Buffy is the type of person to hurt people. I don’t even think that she has had a boyfriend before.” Willow said.

“So, what’s you plan. Do we set them up our something?” Asked a very interested Oz. Anything that would require me to spend time with willow was a good thing. A very good thing.

Oz grinned evilly as willow told him her master full proof plan. Only she would think of something that sneaky.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

When willow and me got to Divinations she seemed awfully quiet. The teacher was setting in a large blue chair, while she waited for everyone to arrive.

“Willow, you’re not telling me something. Is it oz?” I asked willow.

“Maybe.” She said. She didn’t want blow the plan him and oz where going to use to get Spike and Buffy together.

“So do you like oz? Like in that boyfriend kinnda way?” I asked. Her eyes grew a little wide.

“Um, I don’t know if he likes me like that.” She said looking down.

“Well what if he did. Would you date him?” I asked.

“Yeah. I don’t know. How about you and Spike? He is a major Hottie you know.” Willow said. The teacher stood in front of the class, and waited for everyone to be seated.

“I noticed.” Buffy said. She covered her mouth. “I just said that out loud didn’t I?” both girls giggle and stopped when the teacher began to clap loudly.

“Hello class I’m Tara Jenkins your Divinations teacher. You can just call me Tara. Today we well be discussing different forms of this magic. Please get your book titled ‘Unfogging the future’.”

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Spike and Oz arrived in charms class to see Willow and Buffy had already reserved a table for them. They sat down and Buffy turn to spike and mouthed ‘Does he..’ she said looking at Oz. Spike nodded and he pointed to willow, and she nodded two. Both where very happy that there plan was working out.

“Welcome to Charms. I’m your teacher Jenny Calendar. Today we well be going to the library so get you books together. Lets go.”

We arrived in the huge library after making about twenty different turns down hallways and got up and down at least ten different stairs. The teacher led up to several large tables and everyone sat down. She walked to the Clerks desk where a middle-aged man with glasses smiled and they talked for a couple of seconds. They both walked back towards the class.

“Students this is Mr. Giles is the school Liberian. He is going to get out some more in-depth books about charms and where going to start writing there names and meanings down in our notes. Every Monday we well be coming to the library. You can do your charms homework, have study groups, and work on class projects.” Mrs. Calendar said.

Giles looked over the students and spotted Mrs. Summers. He knew that she doesn’t know that she is the chosen one right now, but she well soon. She is going to be a very powerful Auror, and I well be her watcher. I well train her in magic’s, and in fighting.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I was so tired when I finally gotten back to the Slytherin Common room. I practically stumbled into my bed. Defense against the Darks arts was a simple class, transfiguration was ok too, but potions sucked. Professor Walsh assigned us homework on our first day! I have to go to the library tomorrow to start on it. The assignment actually requires research.

Willow was still in the common room talking with Oz and spike. I had been so tired that I just said ‘I’m going to sleep’ and then I lefted. I saw the look of disappointment in Spikes eyes, but I gave him a small smile.

I close my eyes and start to sleep. My night was haunted by horrible dreams.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
