Year to Year.
Rose was ecstatic to begin her first year at Hogwarts. She had been looking forward to it for years. Her family could tell, especially the morning they were set to leave as she ran around the house in her brand new robes.
She hummed merrily while she packed, Hugo laughed at her antics.
"Say Rosie, what house do you want to get into?" he asked sitting down on her bed next to the trunk.
She finished folding her shirt and closed the trunk's lid lightly, snapping the clasps into place.
"Ravenclaw. But Gryffindor wouldn't hurt either" she smiled "What about you?"
"Hufflepuff" Hugo said "But I've got some time to think haven't I?"
"ROSE! HUGO! TIME TO GO!" Hermione's voice called
Rose grinned
Half an hour later they were at Kings Cross in search of the Potter family.
"There" her father said
She saw Albus with an extremely relieved expression and smiled.
"Hi" he breathed
"Hey. Are you excited? I barely got any sleep last night!" Rose said, her blue eyes bright.
"Hah. Nervous more like it. Nearly had a panic attack this morning" Albus said, rubbing the back of his neck
"Oh stop worrying! Everything's going to be great!" Rose said, throwing her arms up into the air "It's not James is it? You know he loves to tease you!"
"No…well maybe a little bit. I know he's just joking but…" he trailed off
"You still get nervous." Rose finished sympathetically.
Albus nodded
"I'm sure you'll be much less nervous when we're settled in. Trust me" Rose said strongly
"I'm sure you're right Rose. You always are" Al said
Rose grinned "What was that?"
"Oh shove off. Can't even give you one little compliment without you getting all high and mighty" Albus muttered
Rose laughed.
They then went to join Hugo and Lily as they opinionated the four houses.
"Anything but Slytherin" Lily grinned
Hugo nodded
"If you're not in Gryffindor, we'll disinherit you," her father declared "but no pressure"
"Ron!" her mother scolded
Lily and Hugo laughed, but I on the other hand felt a bit unsettling.
"He doesn't mean it," mum and Aunt Ginny assured us
"Look who it is" her father said
A tall white haired man stood with his wife and son, probably to be entering Hogwarts this year also.
The man nodded at us curtly then turned away.
"So that's little Scorpius," her father said under his breath. "Make sure you beat him in every test, Rosie. Thank God you inherited your mother's brains."
Rose turned to her Albus and rolled his eyes as her mother scolded her father for trying to turn her against Scorpius before they begun the year.
"I'm going to go sit with my mates. You'll be fine right?" James asked Hugo and Rose as he opened the cars door.
"Yeah, we'll be fine" Rose said shooing him off
James nodded and shut the door.
Moments later the door was opened again, this time by someone else.
"Um Hullo, do you mind if I sit with you? All the other car's are full" Scorpius asked
"Sure, come on in" Al said cheerily
"Thanks"
"You're Scorpius right?" Al asked
He nodded
"And you're Albus Potter aren't you?" he asked timidly
Albus grinned
"The one and only"
"And you're Rose Weasley right?" he asked again
"Indeed I am" she said with a smile
"Scorpius, what house do you want to get into?" Al asked
"Well I want to get into Ravenclaw, even though my dad would prefer Slytherin." Scorpius said quietly, twiddling his thumbs
"Really?" Rose asked "Me too!"
Scorpius blushed
"It's Gryffindor or Ravenclaw for me. I haven't chosen yet. Gryffindor's been in the family for ages though" Albus chimed in
"Ah, but what's the fun in being the same Al?" Rose asked
"True, true"
The three talked for the entire train ride, only stopping so Albus and Scorpius could get into their school robes.
"Look Al! I've got your dad!" Rose laughed when she opened her last chocolate frog
"I've got him a million times!" Al said "Tell me when you've got Helga, I still need her"
"I've got Dumbledore" Scorpius smiled
"Really? Let me see" Rose said, sliding over to his side
Scorpius blushed again and held out the card
"I have at least ten of him at home. He's my favorite" Rose grinned
The train came to a halt.
"We're here" Al said
AN: You like? I do hope so, I've been wanting to do something like this for ages. NEXT CHAPTER HERE I COME!
