I made my way to the Great Hall for breakfast, they seemed quite irritated, but, could I blame them? I mean, I could have told them, but on the other hand, they were talking, and I didn't want to bother them.
My thoughts were everywhere at this point and I thought that the best thing to do was not think about it. I then hummed a random song that came to my mind.
It wasn't long before I made it to the Great Hall, but to my surprise, there weren't many students there. I pulled up my robe and checked my watch. When I saw the time, my eyes widened and I ran to the transfiguration room. I opened the door and saw Professor Mcgonagall sitting at her desk, with half of the desks empty.

"Good morning Professor, I'm sorry I'm late..."

"Good morning (L/N), it seems you are late, but so are most students"
I smile at her and look around the room, trying to find where to sit. I found a seat next to someone I didn't know. They didn't mind, so it wasn't a big deal. All of the students sat in silence as someone opened the door. They apologised and sat down.

The professor then showed us her 'animagus' powers, she was able to turn into an animal, a cat to be exact. To be honest, it was kind of cool.

A lot of time passed by and the class was still quite empty. I started looking around the classroom to see who was there, I know a lot of students here, but I didn't see Harry, Ron or Hermione.
As I thought of that I heard someone quickly opening the door. I knew it was Hermione. Mcgonagall scolded her a bit and told her to sit down. The thing I realised was that she was in the back, it's weird, I guess. Harry and Ron aren't here yet. I was getting worried for some reason. I looked up at Mcgonagall and saw she wasn't herself, she was her Animagus form. I guess she wanted to trick the rest of the late students. I like how she thinks.

Not even 5 minutes later, I hear someone enter, and I can bet money it was Ron and Harry. And I was right, I hear them talk about how Mcgonagall would be mad if she knew they were late. I attempted to hide my smile, and so I just placed both my hands on my mouth.
The cat on the table jumped from it, mid-jump, transformed into the professor.
I almost burst out laughing.
The professor scolded them both and suggested she transfigure them into a clock, so maybe one of them would be on time.
Harry explained that both of them got lost.
Mcgonagall recommended transfiguring them into a map and said they didn't need one to find their seats.
They looked around and sat down on one of the empty seats.
The class went by really fast, I enjoyed it, Mcgonagall was really nice to all of us, and I understood the lesson pretty well.
The next class was Flying class. I love the idea of flying on a broom. My mum told me all about Quidditch and how to play it, I'd love to play one day. Anyway, students started gathering their books and exciting the classroom, and I followed behind. I wanted to be first there, I don't know why...

Hermione sprinted to me and we started talking about some random stuff. We made it there a few minutes earlier than intended and I started looking around to get used to the environment. It didn't take long for other students to come to the Training grounds. Professor Hooch started explaining how to maintain a broom and how to mount it, but first, we needed to make the broom levitate into our hand. The magic word was 'up' All of the students started shouting it and I tried muttering under my breath, but it didn't work so I had to be like others and I started to yell "Up!" I could see Hermione getting frustrated and Ron getting hit in the face by his broom. I couldn't contain myself and I started laughing, so did Harry.
"Shut up, both of you," Ron said irritated.
"Up? Up! Please? UP!" I said and the broom flung up with a bit of force. I was kind of startled but smiled at the sight of me completing something without embarrassing myself. I started looking around to check if anyone had gotten it.

After a few attempts, Harry's broom also flew up into his hand.
Hermione's face seemed even more irritated than ever, I mean if one of the dumbest people on the whole entire world, that being me, could do it, than it couldn't be as difficult as it seemed.
She figured it out after a few dozen attempts and seeing her happy, made me happy. I put a thumbs up for her and she bobbed her head.
She can be so cute sometimes when she isn't either yelling at us or clarifying something that we didn't know or should have known.

We were now instructed to climb onto the broom, and after everyone 'climbed' onto the broom, AKA just put it between their legs, the professor told us to lightly push ourselves off of the ground. Even tho she said LIGHTLY, most of the students either didn't fly at all...
or were Neville, who started floating away and then, after flying for a fair bit of time, fell onto the ground and seemed to have broken something.
Hooch precisely told us not to start flying, and if they did they would fly out of Hogwarts as fast as she can say Quidditch. I wasn't really threatened by this, I knew I wouldn't do such thing unless a specific someone did something really foolish. And they did.
Malfoy found Nevills remembrall and picked it up. At this point, I kind of zoned out and wasn't paying any attention to what they were arguing about, him and Harry. Not until Malfoy started flying and tossing the remembrall into the air, Harry following behind him a few seconds after.
Hermione mumbled something to herself, it sounded like she said "What.An.Idiot." and after realising what was happening, I also thought the same.
I was about to become one of the idiots too.
I climbed onto the broom and started floating, took me a few seconds to realise that the remembrall was coming my way and that I should either dodge or try to catch it. Behind the remembrall, I could see Harry quickly catching up to it. I needed to react fast. My plan was to quickly jolt down and try avoiding it as much as possible. And after I did, Harry bolted to it and snatched it right before it hit Mcgonagall's window.
After a few moments, Harry had made his way back onto the ground and was holding the remembrall in his hand. Everyone was cheering for him until professor Mcgonagall came down and grabbed both me and Harry by the arm and dragged us up to her office.
I was terrified the whole way. Am I going to get expelled? What have I done? Is this the end of me? What's going to happen now? I'm so stupid, why did I do that? Why couldn't I-
My train of thought was interrupted by Harry asking Mcgonagall if we were going to get expelled.
"There will be no such thing, I saw how you two performed on a broom and I am quite impressed, I was hoping to ask you two to join and represent the Gryffindor Quidditch team..."
My eyes widened with joy and I was just replaying the words she said in my brain. Is this happening? Maybe it's a joke? It couldn't be, could it? She seemed serious when she said it, maybe it's all a big set up?!
Harry just nodded his head and both of them were now staring at me, waiting for my response...

"A-Ah! Sorry to ask, but, what position would we be playing as?" I said while sweating bullets.
"Mister Potter would be playing as the Seeker-" My heart started beating, this was so electrifying.
"And you will be" she continued "a Chaser"
My face probably looked so goofy at this point, I was so happy, finally, my dream will become a reality...
