The sorting of the Hogwarts houses
A view on the moment all the Potter children are sorted into their respective houses and their first night
Chapter 1: James
Professor McGonagall called my name "James Potter!" all heads turned to me. I walked slowly as she placed the sorting hat on my head
I closed my eyes.
"A Potter!" cried the sorting hat, "where will I put you?" I shot my eyes again
"Gryffindor!" cried the sporting hat
I ran to my house table relieved. Teddy patted my back enthusiastically "well done James!"
Later that night as I headed to the dormitories I decided to send an owl to my parents
Dear mom and dad:
I can't believe I made it to Gryffindor! Let's just hope Al gets the same luck next year
James
Harry potter sat in the kitchen table, as Storm, James's owl landed by the window. He opened the door to let it in
"What is it Harry?" Asked Ginny
"It's a letter from James" Harry told her. Albus and Lily gathered on the table too, Paul Harry and Ginny's 4 year old son, stood on the chair to get a better view
"What does it say daddy?" asked Lily excitedly
"He's been sorted to Gryffindor" said her father
The children watched the letter in owe. Harry smiled to himself. There was again a James Potter wondering trough the corridors and the cozy common room. His father would be so happy
"Dad?" Albus asked that night. He was 9 ½ so he still had a long way to go before going, but was starting to worry about which house he'd be sorted in
"Don't worry Al" Ginny told him. But Harry could see his son's green eyes wonder
That night as Harry and Ginny were getting ready to get into bed, Ginny held baby Jack close as Harry took his old school trunk from under the bed. He smiled proudly at the robes he was holding. Ginny was too looking at them Harry kissed her sweetly. And took the baby from her "what you think Jack?" he kneeled beside the trunk
"God luck son"
"Hey" a boy glanced towards James "are you a Potter?" he nodded. He had just sent the letter to his parents
"I'm Sean, Sean Williams" the blonde boy said "I wanted to join Gryffindor too even though my parents were both in Haffelpuff"
"All my family has been in Gryffindor" James said proudly
"Really?" Sean asked "my big brother is in Haffelpuff" he added
"Are your parents upset about you not being sorted there?" James wondered
"Nah, they said I was my own person" they walked together towards the common Room
"What about your siblings James?" Sean inquired
James shrugged "I'm the oldest, my brother is almost ten, sister is 8" he told him "plus a four year old and a baby brother who is just 3 weeks old" James smiled
