Chapter One
The eleven year old blonde boy looked up at his father with big grey eyes once more.
"So it doesn't matter if I'm not in Slytherin?" his father chuckled and crouched down to the eleven year old boy, he rested his hands in the boys shoulders and shook his head.
"Whatever house you get in I'll be proud of you" the eleven year old smiled.
"Even if I'm in Gryffindor?" his father snorted softly.
"Gryffindor isn't that bad Scorpius" the eleven year old frowned. "I knew a good guy who was in Gryffindor" his father said standing and looking over at a raven haired boy - no man who was sending his own eleven year old away.
His father smiled as he squeezed the eleven year olds shoulder.
The eleven year olds mother hugged him then kitted the boy out with his trunk and his owl,
"Okay you don't want to miss your train Scorpius" the blonde boy nodded and hugged his father.
He then climbed into the train, he looked down the numerous carriages wandering which on to take, he knew no one, he wasn't like his father he wasn't confident and had a group who'd come at the click of his fingers.
He found an empty carriage and gingery slipped in, he sat nearest the window leaning his elbow against it and resting his forehead against the cool glass.
From where he was on the train he couldn't see either of his parents only the raven haired man his father had told him about.
The rumours where true he had the round glasses and the lighting scar.
"Harry Potter" a 'wow' escaped Scorpius' mouth as he heard the carriage door open.
"Sorry this is the last carriage" a voice from behind the blonde haired boy said, the boy turned and looked at the three people with huge grey eyes.
A boy sat opposite him, he looked a few years older, he looked confident and funny.
Then a girl she smiled at Scorpius and pushed behind her ear a strand of ginger hair.
Then beside Scorpius was a boy, he looked timid and about his age.
Scorpius smiled at him and watched him smiled back.
"Hello James Potter - the second" said the oldest boy, Scorpius gulped as the girl beside him laughed
"James let the boy breathe" the boy beside Scorpius laughed softly as they felt the train jerk, the two boys moved in view of the window and waved at Harry Potter! Scorpius gawped them.
"He's your dad?" they both nodded as the train picked up speed Scorpius waved to his parents then looked between the boys intrigued
"Your dads Harry Potter" They nodded again.
"Yeah the chosen one - the one who defeated Lord Voldermort - Harry Potter"
"But he doesn't like to brag" the boy beside Scorpius nearly whispered. The girl laughed
"Oh I'm Rose Weasley" she smiled at him as he thought, he knew the name Weasley.
"Albus Potter" the boy beside him whispered, Scorpius smiled.
"What's your name?" Rose asked
"Scorpius Malfoy" all three exchanged a look.
"You're a Malfoy?" Albus asked moving forward, Scorpius nodded and looked around them trying to work out what he'd actually done wrong. He knew people weren't too happy with the fact that his grandfather, the one who his father wasn't too fond of and never talked about, was a former death eater and he was in Azkaban but his dad wasn't like him. His dad was a good man, a good wizard.
Even if some people still scowled the Malfoy name.
Scorpius wanted to change that, he had too he knew the story about how his dad had become a death eater but it was basically against his will.
His dad had sat down with Scorpius before he started at Hogwarts he told him that some people may be swayed by your name don't let that upset you, if he done well if he became a good wizard if he followed the rules, people will have no reason to dislike you, even though your name is Malfoy you are not, NOT your grandfather. Scorpius glanced around the three people looking at him in awe.
"Is that bad?" came the small timid voice of Scorpius he had a tiny hint of malice in his voice which he heard in his father's own voice.
He knew his father had a certain disregard for the rules and he found it ironic that his father made certain that he followed the rules - to the letter.
"No not bad" Rose said smiling comfortably, James snorted.
"Dad's told me stories about the Malfoy's" he hissed, Scorpius winced softly,
"James don't be so impolite" Rose said again "Just because his last names Malfoy doesn't mean he's a bad person, it's like thinking because you're a Potter you have a lighting scar and your good on a broom" Rose then looked at Scorpius "Which are two things he most certainly didn't inherit from his father" James scowled as Albus giggled softly, as Scorpius smiled.
"Anything from the trolley dears?" all four looked up and dived into their pockets looking for knuts.
They ordered about four chocolate frogs three of which escaped, they got two pumpkin pastries and a box of every flavour beans, Scorpius was currently chewing on a cucumber flavoured one as Albus reached over to take a sneaky handful.
Scorpius caught him and smiled bringing the box closer.
"Go on" Albus flashed a embarrassed smile and took a white one, he took a bite then scrunched up his nose. "Not nice?"
"Coconut" Scorpius giggled as Albus stuck out his tongue after swallowing the coconut bean. "I don't think it's bad you're a Malfoy by the way" Scorpius smiled then looked at the other two, Rose had her nose stuck in a book whilst James sat feeding his owl little treats,
"Thank you." Albus smiled.
"It's just James is a bit, umm..." Albus trailed off in thought as Scorpius giggled slightly
"Yeah I get it" Albus smiled
"My dad told us the good things your dad - Draco Malfoy right?" Scorpius nodded
"He told us what he did during the wizard war; how he helped my dad" Scorpius frowned "Hasn't your dad told you about the war?" Scorpius shook his head "I'll tell you later we need to change into our robes" Scorpius frowned then nodded as Albus stood pulled on his trunk which came flying down.
"Wingardium Leviosa" James said pointing his wand at the trunk which was now floating in air.
Albus let out a breath of relief after lowering his arms which he'd raised above his head to protect himself from the falling trunk.
"Be careful Al" Albus nodded as James lowered the trunk onto the seat. Albus winced at Scorpius who smiled back then stood to get his own trunk.
"First 'ears, 'ver 'ere" Scorpius and Albus exchanged a look then walked towards the exceptionally tall man.
"Little Albus Potter" the man said once he spotted Albus, Albus looked at the man with wide green eyes shocked and ever so slightly frightened. "I knew you when you where no bigger than a loaf of 'red" Albus smiled as Scorpius giggled, then played with his tie.
"Are you Hagrid?" the tall man nodded
"That's me, keeper of keys and creatures at Hogwarts" Albus smiled.
"My dad talks allot about you" Hagrid smiled
"I do miss 'arry Potter" Albus chuckled as Hagrid counted all the first years then led them towards the boats that'll take them to Hogwarts.
James had told him about it and told him about the sorting hat, then his dad had to go back and calm Albus' nerves.
Albus grasped onto Scorpius hand as they got in a boat with Rose. Scorpius glanced at Albus obviously not expecting the sudden grasp on his hand.
"Are you okay?" Albus quivered softy and looked at Scorpius "Don't worry it isn't scary" Albus frowned "It's a boat Albus" Albus mock scowled Scorpius as he laughed
"Don't worry trust me - wow I bet them words had never left a Malfoy's mouth before" Albus chuckled he liked his new friend, he had a good sense of humour and he was easy to talk to.
Even if he was a Malfoy - Which Albus didn't understand, his dad had told him the story but he'd also explained how Draco was a good man also.
Albus thought that was more important not his background, his family but the person themselves, everyone had a little evil in them, he remembered his dad telling him, his ex-professor had told him, 'it depends on which you act upon' Albus lived by that ever since his father had told him.
Apparently the professor who'd told his dad was the professor who Albus was named after.
Albus looked up as they approached the castle, Albus' chin dropped in amazement, he'd seen many magical things and amazing sights but Hogwarts beat every single one of them.
He heard a 'wow' slip out of Scorpius' mouth.
"I agree" Scorpius laughed as they piled out the boats and stood in a cluster all frightened first years waiting for something exciting to happen.
There where people around Albus and Scorpius whispering - not because they were still holding hands but about Scorpius' family. 'How could a Malfoy step foot here' was the most heard one, Albus looked at Scorpius as he closed his eyes, why where people so unfair.
"Alright, first years" came a voice that was a really tiny bit familiar to Albus. "We'll go into the grand hall and we'll sort you into your houses" a light murmur became a loud chat. "Okay! Ready" all the first years silenced.
Then followed the professor into the grand hall, Albus looked up at the ceiling gasping at the bewitched roof and the thousand floating candles.
They grouped at the front as the professor placed a hat on a stool, which began singing. At this point Scorpius grasped onto Albus' hand.
"What if we're not in the same house?" he hissed softy.
"Don't worry; it takes your opinion into his decision." Scorpius frowned
"Really?" Albus nodded
"My dad asked to be in Gryffindor" Scorpius frowned but shrugged
"My dad said the hat didn't even touch his head, he just shouted Slytherin" Albus gulped as Rose got called. He turned his head and watched.
"Daughter of a Weasley ay? And Granger got your mothers brains, father's humour I know where you'll go. Gryffindor" she smiled and almost skipped to the table laced with gold and red. Then it was Albus' turn, he released Scorpius' grip then walked to the little stool, he took a seat an felt the hat be put on his head,
"Um? A Potter tough, tough. You have the cunningness to be in Slytherin, the bravery for Gryffindor, the intelligence for Ravenclaw and the willingness for Hufflepuff but where to put you, where could you go" the hat paused for a second making Albus squirm. "GRYFFINDOR" Albus smiled from relief as he walked and took a seat beside his brother at the table.
"Scorpius Malfoy" Scorpius looked up as the whole hall fell silent, he looked around then took a seat, Albus watched curiously and with both hands fingers crossed.
"Ah a Malfoy! Father, grandfather, great grandfather in Slytherin but what about you..." Albus looked at Scorpius he was whispering something. "Um you do have the bravery to be in Gryffindor but imagine the success if you where in Slytherin eh? I know where exactly to put you - GRYFFINDOR" Albus automatically cheered like the rear of the table but there will still some hurtful hisses, Scorpius walked to the Gryffindor table and sat beside Albus.
"Hardly a Gryffindor" Some one hissed near to Scorpius and Albus
"That wasn't very nice" Albus said once the sorting had finished, he was looking up at what must have been a sixth year
"Which?"
"Name doesn't matter; he was put in Gryffindor so he must be meant to be in Gryffindor" Albus was getting more confident as it went on.
"Albus its fine" Scorpius whispered holding his arm.
"No, it does" Albus caught James' eye "Tell them James" James looked down and took a sip out his Pumpkin Juice as the sixth year backed off.
