"Have a good day Scorpius!" said a dark haired woman to her young, pale skinned, blonde haired son, Scorpius.
Next to her stood a man, Scorpius's dad, with the same hair as him. Both of them noticed that Scorpius seemed to be hiding behind them.
"Are you nervous?" asked Scorpius's dad.
Scorpius gave a small nod as he held onto his mom's hand.
"You don't need to worry," said Scorpius's mom, comfortingly.
"But-but what if nobody wants to be my friend?" asked Scorpius nervously, looking up at both of his parents.
"That's nonsense," said his dad, "Orion and Delphina are going to be here. Besides, you are a Malfoy. People will want to be your friend."
"Really?"
"Of course, Scorpius."
"And besides, you are the nicest boy ever," said his mom.
Scorpius smiled as he became less tense.
"Are you ready to start your first day of kindergarten?" she asked.
"Mhm," confirmed Scorpius as he let go of his parent's hands and adjusted
the small backpack he was wearing. As the young boy walked into his class, he saw many kids he had never seen before. However, in the crowd of unknown kids, Scorpius saw two kids that had been his best friends since birth.
"Scor!" yelled a dark skinned girl with long brown hair, waving him over. Next to her sat a light skinned and light brown haired boy who Scorpius also knew.
"Hey Del! Hey Orion!" he chirped, sitting next to them.
"Are you excited to meet everyone? I am!" she squealed.
"Yeah, I'm excited but kind of scared."
Orion nodded to what Scorpius said. "Me too," he said.
"Well I think we should try to talk to some other kids. Like those three!" Del pointed to two kids, a boy and two girls, all three of them sitting against a wall talking to each other. The red haired girl looked very nervous while the raven haired boy and the brown haired girl seemed to be trying to comfort her.
"Fine," groaned Orion as all three of them got up and walked over to the boy and girl.
"Hi!" greeted Del as both Orion and Scorpius gave a shy wave.
"Hello!" waved the boy.
"I'm Delphina, but since it's very long people call me Del. These are my friends Orion and Scorpius. But I call him Scor because it's also very long. What's your name?
"I'm Albus! This is my cousin Rose," he said, referring to the red haired girl, "and this is Ava. Me and Rose have known her since we were small because of our parents. Rose is scared by all these people she doesn't know."
"It's true," said Ava, "We've been trying to get her to come out of her shell...well since we got here! Which wasn't that long ago..."
"Me, Orion, and Scor have also known each other since we were small because of our parents. And being scared, that's exactly what Orion and Scor are like. They've barely spoken a word to anyone."
"Well Del, I just don't know what to say!" whined Orion.
"Yeah," agreed Scor.
"Just say something! Stop being so scared! You two are just scaredy cats!" mocked Del.
"Yeah Rose you should also say something!" encouraged Al.
Rose, who had been watching this conversation from her spot on the floor, asked, "Will you just stop bugging me Al? And will you random people just go away?"
"Excuse her, she's just a bit rude sometimes."
"Fine Al, what should I say?"
"I don't know, ask something like...what their favorite ice cream flavor is."
"Um ok. What's your favorite ice cream flavor?"
"You already know mine, it's cookie dough," said Albus.
"I like mint chocolate chip!" replied Del.
"Strawberry," said Orion.
"Chocolate all the way," Ava answered, "Though I'll be disappointed if you didn't know that Rose."
"Cookies and cream," Scor replied.
"Oh, same! I also like cookies and cream," Rose said, finally cheering up.
"Cool!"
Suddenly, the teacher called us to all sit in a circle on the rug. Rose, Albus, Ava, Scorpius, Delphina, and Orion all went to the rug and sat together. And that was the start of their friendship.
