Leslie heard something snap in her chest. More than heard it; she felt it. Pain shot through her ribs and was made worse when Shaylah pulled her up. She had one arm clutching her chest and the other hand on her head where her hair was being pulled. "No. Shaylah. Please, stop." The pain was...

Leslie was meant to be meeting her parents but she was early. She had nothing else to do. Her dad had managed to get time off work so he could come and see her. She was in a good mood because of this but her mood soon changed. She spotted her sister's ex-best friend up ahead and Shaylah was...

"Not much really. Just reading and cooking." She shugged. "I don't really do much. I spend most of my time at home messing around with my mum. My dad's always at work and my sister hates me so mum's probably my best friend." Lex knew how this could sound pathetic but she was fine with it. "What...

"I know but it would be cool to have a more unique name. My sister has changed her name because she hates it so much." Leslie decided not to mention the fact that Steph had also changed her surname. She didn't want to trouble Raj with her problems before she'd even met him properly.

"That's a nice name." She smiled. "How is it unique??" Then she shrugged. "It's better than Leslie. I know too many people with that name. It gets kinda boring."

Leslie smiled as he said his name. It was a funky name and one that she had never heard before. "I'm Leslie but you can call me Lex." Leslie had always liked being called Lex as it was what Steph used to call her so it brought back happy memories.

Leslie was glad that he was going to be a Gryffindor. She needed more friends and Slytherins weren't likely to make the cut. "I think it's probably about the same. They have the same teaching standards and stuff so it should be." Then she blushed slightly. "I'm sorry. What's your name??"

Leslie smiled up at the boy. He seemed nice enough. Not that Leslie was the best at making friends, but still... "Yeah. I'm a Gryffindor second year." She grinned. She liked being in Gryffindor, it was Steph that didn't like it. "What about you??"

Leslie walked slowly along the street of Brightstone watching the groups of friends running from shop to shop. After a while, she decided it would be best if she looked away so she watched the ground where she was stepping. She would be meeting her parents later but she felt more alone right now...

Hey, I can't open the link for Taylor. It comes up saying error.

Leslie had never liked her birthday because there was so much attention given to her. She also didn't like other people's birthdays because she never knew what to get for them. She just hated birthdays altogether. "Anything really." She shrugged. "I usually just read anything I can get my hands on."

"I dunno." Leslie shrugged. "Most of the time, I just get clothes or shoes or books. It's the only things that I really need." Les didn't play an instrument so didn't need anything for it. She also didn't get involved in any type of sport so didn't need any equipment. So there wasn't much that...

"Most people are older than me." She laughed. "Most of the people in this year have a birthday before June. I don't mind though. I don't really clebrate my birthday much. I just accept the presents that people give me and that's about it." She smiled. "I expect there's probably quite a lot of...

Leslie grinned when she realised there was another thing she had in common with Immy. Lemi had loved her life in London. It had been hard to get her upset back then where as now it was one of the easiest things to do. "I don't think I have. I don't think I know yours either." She grinned...

Leslie loved how her mum tried to do as much as possible without using magic. Lexi hadn't even found out about magic until she got her letter from Hogwarts. She found it great the she could do magic but not so great that having magic required moving home. "I didn't even find out about magic till...
