Hi to anyone reading this! This is my first fan fiction ever so sorry if it's not very good. I just wanted to say before the story starts I started writing this before the Cursed Child was published so it doesn't completely line up with that story line. Hope you like it! :D
Lilys POV
Both my brothers had already gone to Hogwarts. I barely ever saw them. I wanted this day to come so desperately but now it was here I thought I was going to be sick. Just as we were pulling up to King's Cross, Ginny looked back from the front, 'Are you okay Lily? You look really pale...if you're not feeling 100% you can always go tomorrow...'
I shook my head. I couldn't miss the first day. Then I'd really stand out. Sometimes I wish my dad wasn't the famous Harry Potter. I could never walk into wizard filled places with having hundreds of people staring at me. 'No... I'll be fine,' I said, 'I'm just nervous.'
'It'll be fine Lily.' Albus said, 'I'll make sure James looks out for you. People respect him so they won't tease you.'
'But what if I'm in Slytherin?' I asked
'So what if you are?' This time it was Harry who spoke, 'Luna's daughter Payton is in Slytherin and she's a really nice girl. She helped Albus a lot in his first year.'
Harry parked the car and we all got out. James and Albus got their owls Godric and Bludger out the car. I had a little black kitten. James wanted to name him Minion of Darkness but I named him Dobby after the house elf who helped my dad.
We all said good-bye to Harry and Ginny before we boarded the Hogwarts Express. Albus and James went to join their friends and I was left alone. Eventually I found an empty compartment. After I had sat down a girl with white blond hair stumbled through the compartment door. 'Mind if I sit in here?' she said
'Sure.' I replied, 'It's kinda lonely in here.'
She sat down opposite me and grinned. 'Hi! I'm Delphine. But call me Delphi my idiots of parents gave me the weirdest name ever.'
'Hi Delphi, I'm Lily.'
'Nice to meet ya... want a Bertie Bott?'
'Oh. Yes please...' I chewed the small pastel blue bean, 'Mmm... soap.'
After eating quite a few sweets we finally arrived at Hogwarts. We sailed across the Black Lake with Hagrid and before I knew it we were walking into the sorting ceremony.
Professor Longbottom read out our names.
'Black, Delphini.' He read out.
Delphi walked up to the front. Neville lowered the hat onto her head. It thought about and then...'SLYTHERIN!'
Delphi skipped over to the table of cheering Slytherins. 'Clinton, Ace.' Ace was sorted into Ravenclaw and Ashlyn Albinson was sorted into Gryffindor. Rodge Colling-Wood was a Hufflepuff and so was Felicia Hurst. 'Potter,Lily.ยด I walked up. I felt the weight of the hat on my head. Difficult it said... you are exactly like your brothers... fearless and a troublemaker but something is different and it can't be ignored...
'SLYTHERIN!'
