Ivy stared at the ceiling above her, it felt like hours had pasted since she was awake. But in reality, it was only a few minutes later. She felt as though her body didnt had any rest at all. She sighed. It was way too early to get up, but Ivy knew that her mind wouldnt allow her to get back to sleep. She pushed herself up and looked at the other girls in her dormitory, all still asleep. Getting rid of the warm blanket, her bare feet touched the cold, stone floor of the dungeon. She shivered. Now, she was fully woken. As she sat on the edge of her bed, she tried to decide what to do. There probably werent any other students awake yet, and she definitely didnt wanted to stay inside the dungeons. The courtyard. As soon as she thought of it, she knew that it was the place where she wanted to go to. Jumping off her bed, she quickly bend to reach her suitcase. As Ivy was putting her school uniform on, she figured that it was also smart to wear her cloak. It was only early in the morning and she didnt want to catch a cold.
The silence was only broken by her footsteps echoing through the castle. Ivy increased her pass a bit as she didnt really felt comfortable in the deserted corridors of the school. Back at home it was totally different, there was everything nice and small as it was just the 2 of them. Only her and her dad. But here, here it was her and the other hundreds of students in the gigantic castle. It was a huge change, but not a bad one. She loved it in here, only sometimes it was just a bit too overwhelming. Being glad that she recognized some paintings from the last time she had been to the courtyard, Ivy knew that it couldnt take long any more. And she was right, only one minute later she set foot in the courtyard. Ivy took a deep breath, the fresh air filling her nostrils. The grass still was a bit wet because of the morning dew and she heard various birds chirping, announcing the new day. Ivy leaned against one of the many pillars, closing her eyes to fully enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. It felt as though all her worries were being taken away. Right now, she could only think about all the new memories she was going to make in here. In Hogwarts. And it made her happier than anything in the world.
