Bella wasn't sure about all this magic thing at first. She was perfectly alright with her life with regular school in the seaside town. But the letter came for the first time. Then a second time. That was when she started asking her parents questions. They used magic around the household but not all that much. They had said it would be her decision whether she would want to go or not.
Not terribly helpful.
When the Hogwarts letter arrived a third time, Bella decided to go to a higher authority. Her cousin Skye, Healer Extraordinaire in London. That was the title that Bella had given her. Her best friend, even if Skye was more than double than Bella's age. The older of the two blondes said the same thing as Bella's parents had said. But Skye also said that Hogwarts had made her what she was at this time.
And that it would probably be good for Bella to get to know her magical side. Even if they didn't music classes ... Bella liked singing, mostly to herself.
It took Bella another month or so before deciding to do just that. On one condition: that Skye would be her guide through Hogwarts, through letters and maybe Hogsmeade weekends. It was a deal.

House Request: Let the Hat decide for me, please!
Personality:
Tell us a bit about your character’s personality (likes, dislikes, fears, etc.) What are they like on a good day versus a bad one? Is your character particularly cheerful? Do they hate sunlight?
Bella is a rather cheerful person, but also quite blunt when the occasion arises. She likes singing, but isn't sure if she would want to pursue such a career when she's older. Wouldn't say no to it though.
She loves socializing, sunlight, beaches and the water. She hates bullies and liars. If you get on her wrong side, Bella won't talk to you for weeks. Several rounds of apologies might be necessary.
As far as school is concerned, she is a rather average student. Doesn't mind studying though ... knowing that, after studying and homework, she might be able to catch some sunlight in order to chill out for the rest of the day.
Appearance:
Briefly describe your character's appearance (hair color, build, stature, etc.) What effect does it have on their personality? For example, does the shy Ravenclaw girl secretly dye her hair black because she hates her natural blonde? Does the curly-haired Gryffindor use charms to hide his freckles?
Bella is rather short for her age, just below 5-feet. Slim build with dark green eyes. Blonde hair, shoulder-length but style varies. One week it could be straight, next week it could be curly. It pretty much depends on her mood. She had tried to use bit of magic for her hair, but it had backfired rather spectacularly ... had to ask her cousin Skye to fix it. Never again, until Bella is sure that it will absolutely positively work.

Option 2:
That rat of his was in for it now.
The gray little rascal had disappeared from his clutches at breakfast. Again.
Before Hugh even knew what was happening, Merlin had shot across the floor, somehow managing to avoid all the feet walking across the hall and had escaped through the open doors.
Which meant that Hugh was now stomping through rows of flowers and other various flora, searching for the small creature. It was like the rat knew Hugh was allergic to most flowers. Merlin always chose to run to the gardens whenever he got away from Hugh. It was as if the rat did not want to have him for an owner.
Hugh had named his pet Merlin because he had hoped the powerful name would give the rat more incentive to be more than a rat. Not that he expected Merlin to change into a wizard or anything, but rats were just so...useless, for the most part. With a name like Merlin, Hugh thought it might give the rat purpose.
The only purpose Merlin seemed to have was getting away from Hugh as often as possible.
As the fifth year trudged into the second row of flowers, not taking much care to avoid trampling the first row, he felt the first sneeze building up pressure in his nose and behind his eyes.
"You blasted rat! Where are you?"
He pulled apart a section of bright red flowers; he didn't know what they were called because he despised flowers, and ducked his head low to peer into the depths of the flowerbed. It was moving closer in proximity to the flowers that finally did it. Hugh took in three great breaths and then let out an almighty sneeze. It was strong enough to disturb some of the dirt on the ground before him.
Groaning, he stood up again and wiped his nose on his sleeve. It was as he was turning his head, his nose running up and down his arm, that movement in his peripheral vision caught his attention. Normally one who preferred to put his best face forward, Hugh was a bit embarrassed to be caught wiping his runny nose on his robes.
Nevertheless, Hugh put on his best haughty voice. albeit a bit thickly with his plugged nose and said, "Can I help you with something? It is not polite to stare."
Bella was enjoying a quiet morning in the gardens. Well, quiet ambience anyway. She was humming along one of the first hits of the year, 'Do You Wanna Dance' by The Beach Boys. It was rather catchy and fun. Dancing was a bit out of the question, she didn't want to stomp on the flowers while doing so. And the likelihood of that happening was rather high.
An open notebook was resting in her lap. Her attempt at drawing some of the flowers in front of her was featured on the front page. A not-terribly successful attempt ... But it was all in good fun. It wasn't like this was going to be her entry into a 'Best Drawing' competition or something.
The silence was disturbed by some shouting and the apparition of an older boy. There was also some rustling in the grass somewhere. Did he just mention a rat? Uhm ... OK. Hopefully the rat was friendly. Then the boy sneezed. Loudly. Before proceeding to wipe his nose on the sleeve. Bella couldn't help but stare in disgust at that gesture. Didn't he have a handkerchief?
And then came his impolite statement. Bella maintained her stare for a few moments longer, before commenting calmly. "Would you like to buy a handkerchief?"
