She had been in the back the entire time. As they stood in the darkened room her heart raced a little. If nothing the last two years did give her a little anxiety when it came to new things and new people. She had to remind herself this wasn't last term and this headmaster wasn't going to be crazy mean, she hoped. As the first question had come she listened to others, being only 4'9 she was one of the smaller and in the back she felt maybe she could just hide from answering. It wasn't that Chloe didn't like to answer, she was just nervous at first and didn't want to get anything wrong. The worst feeling was being wrong in front of her peers, especially older ones.

As they started moving she wished she would have stood next to her brother or someone she knew before it felt like it had gotten darker and they weren't allowed to use their wands. What if there were creatures in the dark? Her eyes darted back and forth as her heart beat jumped again.

Could she leave?

There was no going back though, she was in this to learn and to be a better witch and that was exactly what she was going to do. So she followed and listened to the professor and the other student's responses. She did wish that she could take some notes though, then she could remember what was being said.

As she spotted the boats she couldn't believe they were going in them. Could they at least use their wands there? It seemed like that would be a no as well. Seeing some of the older ones join together she started thinking maybe she would jump in with them, they'd no what they were doing, but then she saw some of her housemates and one Ewen getting into a boat.

"Hey Ewen, mind if I join you?"

This one would work, so maybe she could get some older friends in. Maybe Juniper or Choe would join them.
