Wish I was that brave, Melanie thought as she looked around the room at all of the raised hands. It would take awhile before Melanie was comfortable enough to offer up any information without it throwing her into a panic attack. She was new to this magic stuff, after all.
autumn, got her new parchment and a quill out, she was new to using quills, always using pens as a muggle-born. She noticed Melanie her fellow first year, she smiled. Autumn could tell melanie was worried, she wanted to give her a few words of advice but didn't want to loose points on her first lesson!
Autumn was writing people's answers down taking advice from older students, wishing she knew all this.
