Griffyn-for? Huff-puff? It was kinda clear that this kid did not know what he was talking about. I looked right at him and said, “It’s ok if you don’t know what the houses are. A lot of people don’t. I’m a wizard born but grew up in a muggle neighborhood. I half lied. I was a dhaphmir. Not a wizard born. I did live around the muggles, and I played muggle hockey.

The conversation turned to where we lived. I had finished my grilled cheese and began drinking the butterbeer. The boy with long hair, Edward, told us about how he was English-Irish American. Wow. That’s cool. Not that many American wizards are at Hogwarts. There was a pause in the conversation, and I decided that it was my turn to speak. “I am English and Irish, and I live in Ireland. When I say that I am Irish a lot of people ask where my red hair is. I don’t happen to have any in my family. It’s weird.”

I finished my butterbeer and stood up. “I’m going to go put this over there, be right back.” I said. I walked quickly over to the pile of dirty dishes, balanced mine on top, and walked back to the table.

The third girl who came with food introduced herself as Charlie, giving a friendly smile. It was a nice name, though. "Hey Charlie. To be honest, you have got a wonderful name. I am Karrie Myers." Karrie flashed a smile back.
Charlie started talking about her own perspective regarding the sorting of her houses. "Oh, to be honest, I really like Ravenclaw! Being a Slytherin won't be too bad either but Gryffindor is still good! And I don't actually think I have the exact traits of a Hufflepuff."
Edward meantime gave Karrie a friendly welcome and asked if she knew who Nanny McPhee was.
"No, I don't know them. Could you possibly introduce them to me?" Karrie's eyes started to gleam with curiousity.
As Edward was giving a reply for the question Charlie asked, he looked a bit confused and wasn't able to spell the house names correctly. "Are you a Muggle-born?" Another question popped out. "I am one too. But thankfully as my brother is a wizard, I got to know many things about hogwarts." She said, trying to make it more reasonable. Then Charlie comforted Edward saying that it was common to not know about hogwarts. And Karrie nodded in agreement.
The girl with brown hair hasn't introduced herself yet, so may be Karrie will take the opportunity for it. "May I know your name, please? I am asking it out of pure curiousity."
The girl then asked where everyone belongs to. Everyone gave an immediate answer and so did Karrie, "I live in England, to be specific in the Southminster town. You might have heard of it, it's a very popular muggle town"

As she looked around, she noticed that everyone were drinking the butter beer. Maybe they liked it?
"Did you all like the butter beer?" Karrie asked, quite politely.

"Oh, to be honest, I really like Ravenclaw! Being a Slytherin won't be too bad either but Gryffindor is still good! And I don't actually think I have the exact traits of a Hufflepuff," Karrie said sweetly.
"Probably Gryffindor, or maybe Slytherin," Lexie said before taking another cookie, Edward decided to take another as well, he first dipped it into his hot chocolate before taking a bite, Delicious!
"Cool!" He thought which one he thought sounded the coolest. "Umm... Maybe..... Griffin for or Huff Puff?" As he talked he took two cookies stabbing the top of them with two forks, he held each fork in each hand. He didn't notice the confusion he has stirred up at the table with his misconceptions. The cookies were like feet and the forks like legs, he started moving them like they were dancing, he motioned them to go along with the quiet music playing behind them in the building. He just quietly listened to the others response recording them all into his memory hard drive... This surely was going to be interesting...
"Are you a Muggle-born?" Karrie asked Edward after his odd statement of the Hogwart's houses. "I am one too. But thankfully as my brother is a wizard, I got to know many things about hogwarts."
"A muzzle-what?" Edward mumbled to himself confused of the whole ordeal.
“It’s ok if you don’t know what the houses are. A lot of people don’t. I’m a wizard born but grew up in a muggle neighborhood," Charlie directed at Edward, Edward just shrugged as he did not of the time, and nodded and smiled as if to say that that was cool. What does that even mean? Wasn't he a wizard too? There were such thing as a wizard neighborhood? Edward's mind was scarmbled but his questions flew through the roof, yet only in his mind as he sipped some hot chocolate.
Lexie turned to look at Edward, curiousity plastered on her face.
"So, where are you from? I haven't heard much of that accent," She said before she quickly added looking to the other two girls. "Actually, where are all of you from?"
Edward first swallowed his cookie before answering, of course he had manners.
"Im English-Irish American, I was raised mostly in Florida, USA that's why I have an american accent, but my Mother is full english," Edward said it easily, he spoke with no filter between his mind and his mouth. "What about you?"
He took another bite of the cookies looking at all the others before taking another gulp of hot chocolate.
“I am English and Irish, and I live in Ireland. When I say that I am Irish a lot of people ask where my red hair is. I don’t happen to have any in my family. It’s weird,” Charlie said turning to speak. Edward shrugged, most of the Irish people he met were blonde, black, or brunette. People who believed in that stereotype knew nothing.
"I live in England, to be specific in the Southminster town. You might have heard of it, it's a very popular muggle town," Karrie said politely.
"I think so," Edward said it rung a bell in his mind, maybe his mother had mentioned it or something when they had been moving back to England. If could have been one of the options on the list before the settled on Chesire, England. Edward loved it there but sadly there was no one there his own age.
“I’m going to go put this over there, be right back," Charlie said standing up.
Edward nodded acknowledging her words, he was sure to listen, his mother always told him to keep an open ear. Once he had joked and said that wasn't his ear already opened up? Charlie walked quickly over to the pile of dirty dishes, balanced mine on top, and walked back to the table. Edward took another slurp of hot chocolate.
"Did you all like the butter beer?" Karrie asked sweetly and politely. Edward thought she resembled an angel in a lot of ways.
Edward realized that that weird drink everyone was drinking was called butter beer!
"That's what's that's called?" Edward smiled revealing the small gap between his two large front teeth, strange yet charming. As always there was no filter between his thoughts and his mouth. "I don't know, I haven't tried it. I'm drinking butter beer!"
He said looking at the last cookie on the plate, he decided to leave it for someone else adjusting his hat on top of his head of long brunette hair. Lexie took it splitting it in half and leaving the other for Edward, he gave her a silent thanks. this is an edit of the post, so I am not godmodding.
"What about you?" He asked Karrie politely. Edward quietly listened to the words around him, he believed that every person that came along in your life, even just the little interaction with a complete stranger such as passing them by whilst walking, was meant to be there even if it was for no reason at all, they all were meant to be in those random small moments. Those small moments made you a better person, you had to treasure every moment even one of just sitting around eating cookies and drinking butterbeer/hot chocolate! Edward smiled looking into his cup of Hot Chocolate, taking the last sip there was too sip. Before he knew it he saw his mother's scarlet red hair accompanied by her pure white hat, Edward grinned. He looked about the table knowing that he had to leave them. It was sad that he had to leave but was happy that he would see them all at Hogwarts, so he would go with joy in his heart not sadness.
"Bye guys! See you at Hogwarts," He smiled stating vaguely before getting up with his mug, taking the now empty plate of cookies, and returning them, before disappearing into the crowd with his mother.

"Oh, didn't I say? I'm Lexie, Lexie Sereno," Lexie said to Karrie. As the rest of the group talked about where they were from, she listened intently. Edward was part American, while the others were from England or Ireland. "I'm from Oxford-- England. Say, Edward? What was it like in America?" She had no idea what North America was like, apart from the stereotypical muggle movies she watched growing up.

The group started speaking about their heritage and blood status, Lexie wondered if she should tell them about her family. She figured reassuring words were the way to go. "I'm a halfblood, but I have no idea about the magical world. I'm sure we'll figure it out though!"

Karrie asked about the butter beer everyone was drinking, but not knowing what it tasted like, Lexie picked at her finger nails, imagining the feeling of the warm liquid coating her tongue. She didn't care for sweet things though, so she took a sip of the tea from her flask before putting it down on the table.

Edward looked at the almost empty plate of cookies longingly, but seemed to hesitate to take it. She snapped the sweet thing in half, shoved one half into her mouth hastily before moving the plate to the brunette boy with a smile.

"So, what do you guys think Hogwarts will be like?" Lexie said, fidgeting with her hair, trying to imagine the extravagant castle and all its wonders.

We talked about where we were from, and I was actually enjoying myself. I had never had any wizard or witch friends before, and I knew that I was going to meet tons of people at Hogwarts. I returned from putting my dirty dishes away, and returned. Edward apparently just learned what butter beer was, and Lexie shared the last cookie with him. I didn’t want it because I was too full from my grilled cheese.

It apparently was time for Edward to head out, and I was alright with that, know I probably had go soon too. “Bye Edward! Hope to see you at Hogwarts!” I said as he left.

After Edward left we were quiet for a moment and Lexie asked us what we thought Hogwarts would be like. I waited a moment and then said, “From what I have heard and read so far, Hogwarts is a giant castle full of ghosts, magical paintings and more. I heard that there are like seven floors!” I let my words soak in for a little bit.

“Hogwarts may be a really big place, but sorting into the houses makes it seem smaller, and then apparently your dorm mates become family to you.” I said, unsure of how I felt replacing my mother with a bunch of girls around my age. “I should probably get going, because that is my mum right there.” I said, gesturing to a woman standing in a line waiting to order something. She kept sneaking glances back at us. “Goodbye Lexie and Karrie! I’ll see you at Hogwarts, hope you guys are in the same house as me!” I added. I stood up and waved at the girls as I went over to my mum.
