A/N: This is my 1st fan fic so it maybe a little rough around the edges. I'll try to make the steadily better as i post more chapters. If you notice any errors on my part such as spelling gramer or one of those WHAT THE HECK IS SHE SAYING! mistakes don't hesitate to tell me. I'd really apreciate them. Please Review!

When Rose Weasley stepped onto the train she realized she didn't know anyone around her, in the scramble to get into the train she had lost everybody. I guess i'll have to go check the other compartments.

She spent the next 15 minuets searching the train for someone she knew, when finally she found the one person she wasn't supposed to know. Scorpious Malfoy sat in a compartment alone. "Hello, can i sit here?" Rose asked searching Scorpious' face for the hatred her father had described to her.

"Sure, I guess, I'm Scorpious Malfoy by the way."

"I'm Rose Weasley. I know who you are, my father told me to stay away from you."

"Then why are you here?"

"Because I want to be, you don't seem like a bad person."

Sitting down, Rose looked out the window before turning back to Scorpious. Scorpious' face was thoughtful and Rose could make out many of the Malfoy's most famous features. Scorpious had platinum blonde hair and gray eyes that held a sense of the shadows in them. His mouth was full and the corners pulled down in a small frown. Quickly she tried to make conversation with him, "Which house do you hope to be sorted into? I personally hope to be in Griffindor, both my parents were in that house its a long line of tradition."

"I just hope I'm sorted into a house. At this point I'd be happy with Hufflepuff." worry showing in his eyes. After another awkward pause Rose opened her mouth to try one more time when all of a sudden a head popped into view in the compartment door. Albus Potter stood there obviously shocked to see that Rose had deliberately ignored her father's wishes, even still he sat down beside Rose and started chatting with her. Albus was the same age as Rose and kind of her protector. Since she was the oldest in her family, she looked up to Albus as an older brother more than a cousin. When ever the boys in her neighborhood teased Rose, Albus would come and stand up for her. Rose tried her best to include Scorpious but couldn't find common ground between the two boys at all. About to lose hope Rose heard Albus utter one word and saw Scorpious' eyes light up, "Quidditch" and that was it Rose could hardly get a word in edge wise. When the Hogwarts Express pulled into Hogsmead station, Scorpious got out with Albus as if they were best friends. Rose followed quietly feeling left out in the chance of bonding.

"Slytherin!" the Hat hollered after almost sitting on Scorpious' head for at least 5 minutes. The Cheers from the Slytherin table echoed in the room as Scorpious headed to join his house. After many other of Rose's year mates were sorted it came to Albus Potter's turn to sit under the sorting hat. After a moment of deliberation the hat shouted out in a loud cry "Slytherin" the look on Albus's face was a mixture of shock and dread. The whole room was silent as they looked with shock on Harry Potter's son who was sorted into Slytherin. Finally Professor Flitwick moved his hands together and the spell was broken. The Slytherin table shouted for joy and ecstasy for now they knew they could win the Quidditch cup. Finally Rose heard Professor Longbottom call her name and stumbling slightly she made her way to the sorting hat. Sitting down on the stool Professor Longbottom quietly said, "Calm down Rose, you'll prosper no matter where your placed." and then the hat was over her eyes. Rose couldn't see anything but she heard in the corner of her mind a voice that said, your different from the rest of your family, i wonder if I shouldn't place you in Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw then again considering your behavior on the train you'd make a good Griffindor, of course that disobedience could also be taken as a sign for Slytherin. No this is for the best, "Griffindor!" the hat shouted. The Room could be heard as the whole Weasley clan Cheered as loud as they could as Rose Weasley took a seat beside another 1st year girl. "Hello! my name's Isabella Heart. Lets be friends!"

"Cool it El, let her breathe." Another 1st year said, "my name's J.P. Finagin."
