Albus Potter was grinning, he had been since uncle Harry whispered something to him as they parted, Rose Weasley was heartily sick of it and longed to hit him but when she had told him that his grin only grew wider. As the train passed into the country side the two eleven year olds where discussing Hogwarts when they heard a knock on the cabin door, they looked up and Rose smiled hesitantly, it was the blond haired boy her father had told her to beat in every test. The boy cleared his throat looking uncomfortable " Do you mind if i sit here?" the boy - Malfoy asked " Only every where else is full and if you dont let me i will be standing up the whole way to Hogwarts." at this the young boy smiled nervously, clearly nervous. Al and Rosie glanced at each other before nodding their assent "thanks," he mumbled. A few moments passed before Rosie took pity on the boy,
"My name's Rosie, Rose Weasly and this is my cousin Albus Potter - but you can call him Al if you want."
The boy grinned "My name is Scorpius Malfoy."
With the ice broken the three youngsters started chatting as though they had known each other their entire lives.
Rosie looked around the great hall of Hogwarts with awe, she looked at each of the four house tables (Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw & Slytherin) then snapped to attention as Professor Minerva McGonagll placed a small stool and hat in frount of the first years. Rosie heard Al breath a sigh of relief and she herself felt as though a great weight had been lifted off her shoulders, as much as she tried to ignore him James' teasing had gotten to her. As one the first years flinched when the hat began to sing.
All Rosie caught was one line "but try my friends to keep an open heart, for you never know where i may choose to place,even those you think you know,"
she felt rather than saw Al go pale next to her, Rosie squeezed his hand then waited for her turn, Scorpius was sorted into Slytherin, as he passed her on his way to the Slytherin table Rose gave him a small smile, which he returned with a hint of resignation, soon it was Al's turn. The hat sat on Als head for two agonising minutes seeming to deliberate, finally the hat yelled out " SLYTHERIN," Al went pale as the hall went quiet but for whispers, he stumbled over to the Slytherin table and fell in next to Scorpius, who looked positivly gleeful to have one of his two friends in the same house. Rosie looked across to the Gryffindor table where sat all her family, they looked shocked. Finally Rose's name was called, she took a deep breath andstrode forwards. Rose's world went black as the hat was placed over her head ' Not Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw would be fine, but still no,' Rosie couldnt beleive what she was hearing, the hat?, ' Very Brave and resourceful altough i think she could do better in "SLYTHERIN."'
