ONLY girls from the Gryffindor household are allowed entrance. If others sneak in and are discovered by a Professor, Headgirl, Headboy or Perfect then house points will be deducted for each person involved.

Moira shuffled through the door, barely able to see over her trunk. She went to the closest bed and tossed her things on the floor. She spun around once before throwing herself back onto the bed. She sighed contentedly and closed her eyes. It was so nice to be back. Summer break was wonderful and all, it was time to spend with her family. But still. This was as much her home as her family home was.
After all the food she ate at the feast, she was pretty full. She let her mind wander, her eyes still closed. Soon, she was drifting towards sleep.

Rousing herself quickly, she straightened her hair and robes. She had planned to wash up after the feast, and before the rest of the girls came in. She was never really close with any of the Gryffindor girls, and the feast had been no exception. She frowned and gathered her endless bag, intending to wash up, and then settle into the common room to finish up her last mitten.

The door opened again, and Skyla walked in, lugging her trunk with some difficulty. What in the world had she put in there? She dragged the thing into the girl's dormitory with one hand, Aimie in the other. The cat wasn't very pleased nor comfortable and struggled to get out of her grip. "All right, then go, you furball," the girl hissed under her breath, releasing the creature.
Both hands free now, Skyla picked up the trunk and lowered it at the foot of her bed. She nearly dropped it, and the thing hit the floor with a rather loud noise. She quickly glanced around at the other students, hoping it didn't wake any of them up. But why they would be asleep so early was beyond her.

Moira came back into the room, frustrated with herself. Somehow she had managed to misplace a knitting needle. She had been in the dormitory all of ten minutes! I need to invest in a Remembrall.
She was sulking back towards her bed when she heard the loud thud. Jumping, she noticed the girl across the room from her.
"Oh! Hullo. I didn't even see you. Do you need a hand?" She put her things down on the bed and gave the girl a questioning look.

Skyla turned around toward at the voice and shook her head. "No, it's okay, I got it," she said, successfully pushing the trunk against the foot of her bed. Then, realizing she hadn't seen this girl before, she grinned and introduced herself. "I'm Skyla, by the way. Do you want to go to the Common Rooms? I'm not tired at all, what about you?"
She felt quite eager to meet more of her fellow Gyffindors. It was hard for her to feel sleepy on the first night at Hogwarts.

Moira smiled at the girl kindly. She didn't recognize the girl, but her name sounded familiar. I think.
"I'm Moira. I was tired when we got here, but I'm starting to get a second wind." She laughed lightly. "I'm just excited to be back. Let's go!" Moira turned back to the bed long enough to scoop Sebastian up and plunk him into her robe pocket. He wouldn't like being left behind. She smoothed out her skirt and gave Skyla another smile.
"Ready?"

Selena came into the dorm room, completely angry and frustrated. She loved her brother, but at the same time also hated him. 'It's like he's so perfect and I'm not. He's popular, he plays Quidditch, he's a prefect. Can he get any greater?' he thought angrily. It wasn't that she was upset at him, but more at herself because she could never measure up to him. No matter what, she just couldn't be like Damian. Selena knew that Damian tried to include her, but still even he couldn't make her popular and well-liked.
She flopped onto her bed, letting out a long sigh. The room was empty, so it wasn't like anyone was going to question her sighing and ask her what was wrong. After a few moments just sprawled on her bed, Selena sat up and moved to the end of her bed so that she could reach her trunk. Opening it, she pulled out her diary, a quill and a bottle of special ink. The ink was special because it was produced in Malayasia and it would guaranteed to only show its writing to the person whose DNA is was first exposed to. Damian had tried to swap her bottle for one that was with his DNA, but she found out because she couldn't see anything that she was writing.
Dipping the quill into the ink, she opened the book to the first page and began to write... In her diary Selena September 1, 2028 Damian is Perfect. Everyone wants to be him, to be friends with him, to hang out with him. Why can't that be me? It makes me so mad!!
I don't know. I'm just mad. I could never hate Damian, even if he is an overachieving nut. I just wish people would aknowledge me. The people who do acknowledge me say that I draw really well, but that's it. No one says anything else to me. It's kind of like I'm invisible unless they're looking for Damian and they happen to find me instead.
I wish I were good at something that everyone would notice me for. Selena's diary was interesting because she didn't write about the day's events in it, but rather how she was feeling at the moment she was writing. It was generally her place to vent. She never took her anger out on other people and the diary became an outlet for her emotions. Most of the entries were rants, but some were about her ex-boyfriend, Felix, and some were about other things.

Rilee quickly walks into the Dormitory. "I'm herrreeee!" She practically yells. Everyone looks at her weirdly. "Oops. Haha, I'm just really excited I'm back!" Rilee walks over to her bed and throws her worn out suitcase on her bed. She looks at her dorm mates. "I hope you girls don't mind, but Sammela, my rabbit, cannot stand being in here cage for more then an hour or so." Rilee lets Sammela out. "Poor baby, here you go..." Sammela jumps out of her cage, and starts to sniff around.

Leya walked up to a door that said, "First Years," in cursive letters. She quickly opened the door and set her eyes on her home. Five four poster peds sat around a small heating duct with a black bar around it. She quickly picked one right next to the window. There was a small bench next to it. Halloween quickly claimed it as her bed. Leya smiled weakly and grabbed her night things and headed toward the bathroom.
After her shower she quickly put on some presentable pajamas. She finally decided on a loose pair of khaki silk shirt and top. She checked herself in the mirror and went down to the Common Room.

After a few more minutes of fuming, Selena finally felt more passive and decided that she was tired enough. She got off her bed and opened her trunk, pulling out toiletries and a set of pajamas. Once she was sure she had everything, she went to the bathroom for a shower and to change into her pajamas.
About half an hour later, she returned, her towel and hair wet, but she was clean and dressed in her pajamas. Her pajamas consisted of pale pink pajama shorts, that only covered her legs to mid-thigh and had golden snitches all over them, and a T-shirt, that was a slightly darker pink with writting in light pink that said "Quidditch...need I say more?" and a snitch in place of the dot on the first "i" in the word "Quidditch". She placed her things into her trunk and hung her damp down on a rack near the window.
She crawled into bed and snuggled under the covers, letting the warmness of the bed overtake her. She was soon fast asleep, dreaming of a world in which she was noticed more for the things she did.
~THE NEXT MORNING~
A bit of sunshine streamed into the room from a nearby window. Opening her eyes, Selena blinked a bit, allowing her vision to clear. Her dream had been nice, but she was back in reality now, where she was still invisible Selena. She sighed, clearly unhappy by this prospect. Sitting up, she stretched out her arms and swung her legs over the side of the bed. After mentally arguing with herself for a moment of whether she should get going or should relax in her bed for a few minutes more, she finally hopped off the bed and got dressed. Once this was accomplished and her books for the day were gathered in her schoolbag, she left the dormitory, heading past the common room and to the Great Hall for breakfast.

~Next Morning~
Leya glanced through the fog that clouded her eyes. She sat up and getnly rubbed the sleepies out of them. Halloween had taken her post at the small bench,curled in a tight ball. She suddenly felt a wave of loneliness as she realised that she didn't have anyone to go to breakfast with. She sighed. What's so disappointing about the normal? she was forced to ask herself. She refused to answer and began getting ready.
As she gathered her books she remembered her book she was reading in her backpack she had carried with her on the train. She quickly pulled it out and stuffed it into her school backpack. She gave one last look to Halloween and closed the door.

Moira slipped into the dormitory, having been able to slip back into the tower while Nico and El had been lip locking. I hope he knows what he's getting into. But like she had said, he was a big boy. She grabbed some new clothes and changed swiftly, as not to bother the other girls. Running abrush through her hair, Moira tip toed to the head of her bed to search for Sebastian. He had made himself comfortable on her pillow, and was currently snoring. How a toad could even make a snore was beyond her, but Moira knew that Sebastian was a rather unique animal.

Late morning sunlight filtered in through the red-curtained four poster, glancing in small beams directly against the currently closed eyelids of a particularly sleepy redhead. With a growl, Beck yanked the curtains closed, blissfully shutting out the bright tendrils of light attempting to wedge themselves under her eyelids. With a contented sigh, Beck pulled her blanket up toward her face and inhaled, letting the familiar scent rush through her sense...except the scent wasn't so familiar. Cracking open a bleary eye, Beckett glanced down at the blanket tucked under her chin and frowned. Red? Her blanket wasn't red. Her blanket was blue. Pulling her head back, a look of confusion spreading across her face, Beck stared at the blanket until the events of the previous night came flooding back into her brain, accompanied by a lovely blush that flooded her cheeks.
'Right...this is Peter's blanket,' she thought, her memories catching up with her sleepy mind. 'I must have been really tired last night. I don't even remember getting into bed.' With a shrug, Beck crawled out from under the blanket and stood, shivering as her bare feet came into contact with the chilly stone floor. A yawn and a long, satisfying stretch later, Beck set about washing up and getting dressed before heading down to breakfast. She vaguely remembered asking Peter to go flying with her today, so she grabbed her broom at the last minute and set it on top of her closed trunk. She'd come back for it later.

Late, Late, Late, Late!! The girl with long black hair sat straight up in her bed and had to stifle a frustrated scream. She was late for her first class, these nightmares that had been haunting her for the last few nights have been ruining her sleeping patterns and effecting her normally impeccable attendance record. Running her small hand through her messy hair. Then realizing that she really needed to get a move on she threw back the thick blanket that covered her red velvet four poster bed. By the time I am ready to go my class is going to be over, this is ridiculous. Running around like a crazy woman she grabbed her school uniform, and ran into the bathroom to get herself ready for the day.
Hopping into the shower her mind wandered back to the dream she had last night. It was all a blur, frustrating and frightening. Wild animals, dark wizards, fighting and death. A great deal of death. I should really stop reading those diaries from The Aurors during Lord Voldemorts time. Blinking the warm water out of her eyes she proceeded with her morning routine.
A while later she stepped out of the bathroom looking almost flawless. Her make-up done with a talent her mother gave her, her hair straight and shiny and almost at her waist. Grabbing her book bag she ran out of the dorm mumbling to her self and cursing being late her proff was not going to be impressed. This was the second time this week.
Swinging the portrait of the fat lady open a little harder then she intended Adelynne walked out the door, rudely not acknowledging the people that said hello to her. Today was going to be a rough day.
