Flying Closed

I came onto the fresh grounds of Hogwarts and walked hesitantly towards the quidditch pitch, I hadn't really played quidditch. The last time I really played it was when my aunt cam around and showed me how everything worked, I never really did any flying as my mum was really overprotective and thought I would just fall. As I walked on with confidence I could see other students chattering, I felt like they were all watching me. I shook off my nerves and just continued to stride on, finally I was at some broomsticks. I stood besides them and though to myself, what if it doesn't work, what if I'm to heavy for the broom to lift? Standing besides them I said the words "up!" to my greatest delight the broomstick flew up into my hands. My nerves went away and I was asked to mount my broom, definatly nervous but very excited. I lifted my feet off the ground and hovered at least a meter off the ground while some people flew higher and others lowered, even though I was nervous I had done it! I stepped away from my broom pleased with myself and walked back to my commen room excited for my next lesson.

It was my first flying lesson and I knew no one in my class. I was nervous, but excited to learn to fly. I Pulled a old broom out of the shed, wishing I had my own. First years weren't supposed to have brooms, so my mum and dad refused to buy me one. The broom was falling apart, as I walked to the area where everyone was waiting for the instructor to begin. I set my broom down, standing next to another hufflepuff girl. She looked nervous as well. After all of the instructions were given, I looked down at the broom, and sighed. There was no way this old broom would listen to me.
“UP!” I shouted. To my surprise, the broom flew into my hand. The other Hufflepuffs and Slytherins that were around me were mounting their brooms or still yelling up at their brooms. I mounted my broom, and followed the instructions, to fly! I was zipping around trying not to crash or fall. When it was time to be done, I slowly lowered myself to the ground.When my feet touched the ground, I hopped off and saw a girl in hufflepuff robes putting her broom away. I followed her, also putting my broom away.
