Harry Potter did his handshake with his father, and hugged his mother before boarding the train to Hogwarts. He was excited for this year. This year Hogwarts was going on a field trip; a field trip to an American muggle school. Hip hip hooray, he thought.
Harry had grown up around magic his whole life. So had his parents, and their parents. Harry wasn't particularly interested in muggles, I mean, how can one live without magic? Life would suck.
He was excited to go, because he would get to learn new things. Harry loved learning, though he wasn't a Ravenclaw, he would never survive in that house.
Harry climed up the steps on the train, and began walking to his usual compartment. It was his father's old compartment, and it had his, Remus', Sirius' and Peter's initials. Harry had actually gotten a piece of parchment that was the same color as the wall, and covered up Peter's initials. He didn't like him for certain reasons.
Anyways, Harry was very rudely interrupted by the compartment door sliding open, and a 'Hey Harry'. He turned, and saw Hermione, his best friend since first year. Beside her was Ron, his other best friend. To him, though, they were more like siblings (much less annoying than his brother, Kade Fleamont Potter. Kade was starting his first year this year).
"Hey guys, just get finished snogging?" He asked, looking them up and down and smirking. Both flushed bright red.
"Uhm- No- anyways, are you two excited to go to that muggle school?" Ron asked.
"I am, I think it will be a good learning experience for the both of you." Hermione said. She was muggleborn, and Harry and Ron were both pureblooded. She had tried teaching them about muggles before, but they just weren't interested.
"Well, I guess we will find out how it goes." Harry says, staring out the window. "Though I do hope we can play quidditch. I am not the best seeker for no reason."
