A/N: For the Minor Character Drabble challenge. I had Lisa Turpin and also used a bit of Stephan Cornfoot who was only in the films. But my story had to have romance. Anyway, it was really hard to get started but I had a lot of fun so I hope you enjoy them :).
Year One
Hufflepuff
As I walk into the Great Hall for the first time, it is not the beautiful layout I am drinking in. Only one object has caught my attention, the dirty old hat sitting at the front of the room. This hat will change my next seven years, hopefully for the better.
I had contemplated over and over again which house I might be sorted into. As if I was telling myself that if I really wish I won't be sorted into Ravenclaw. I know it doesn't matter, my whole family was sorted into Ravenclaw, and it was not often that family trends got demolished. Of course there was the few exceptions, but when had I ever been an exception.
I want more then anything to be sorted into Hufflepuff, it is where I belong. I am not wise enough for Ravenclaw, brave enough for Gryffindor, and we all know Slytherin wouldn't accept me. But Hufflepuff, that is where I belong.
All their faces stare at me as the old hat is placed on my head.
"Yet Another Turpin," it says to me, I sigh and don't bother talking, he has already decided. "Ravenclaw!" he yells out, the sickening word echoes through the hall. I smile the best I can and get down off the stool. There it is standing before me, the long table that I don't belong at, it is where I will be spending my next seven years.
Why couldn't I be in Hufflepuff?
