This was it.. The famed Gryffindor Common Room that Alice had heard all about from both her Father and Brother.. It was so.. red, so cozy. Merlin she loved it already.. How could she not though? It was like if a room could hug you.

It's warm colors and soft textures seemed like the perfect place to sit and read.. Alice sunk into one of the chairs near the fire and wrapped her arms around her knees as she pulled them to her chest. "Merlin... I could just fall asleep." But she didn't want to fall asleep.. she wanted to explore and make friends and show off Diaval.. who was most likely in her room, being miserable.
