Melina's eyes scanned the Ravenclaw table-
her Ravenclaw table, she thought with a swell of pride. Did she recognize anyone? Ari and Adelyn were both in Gryffindor. She felt very small in such a grand place, surrounded by hundreds of students.
Suddenly she spotted a girl who looked familiar.
Where do I know her from? Was it that day at Florean's? Yes- it was!
She moved herself closer to the girl, and hoped she didn't mind that she was kind-of interrupting her conversation with another student. But Melina wanted to get to know
them, too.
"Um, excuse me?" she said with a small smile. "I think we met in Diagon Alley at Florean's the other day. I'm Melina, and your name...completely escapes me!" she laughed, embarrassed. "Would you mind if I joined the conversation?"

Melina heard Preston introduce himself and took an instant liking to him. He had this quirky grin that lit up his face, and he seemed really friendly. She noticed that he stuttered a bit when he talked, and wondered if it was a normal pattern of speech for him or if he was just reeeeeaaaaaalllly nervous. She understood the nervous part!
Preston reminded her of her friend Colson back in Muggle elementary school. In the 2nd grade, a boy decided to make fun of Colson's stuttering. Big mistake- she beat the tar out of him.
Nobody messed with Melina's friends. Her mother was furious, but her father (the ex-Auror) gave her a silent thumbs-up. Later he told her that he was proud that she stuck up for a friend. He really was a true Gryffie.
"Hi Preston!" she said brightly, "I'm Melina Morninglory, and I'm a first-year. You look like you might be...hmmm...a 3rd year or something?"
