A very strange Malfoy girl gets to know George Weasley though they aren't the best of friends. Where will they get sorted? And why?
Chapter 2:
Which House?
"First year o'er here!" bellowed a hairy man who may have been up to eight feet tall.
Elsa felt tiny next to him, but she felt tiny next to anyone. She swept her long blonde hair over her shoulder, and then quickly flicked it back. She hoped no-one had seen the deep knife wound on her neck. Elsa felt the back of her neck burn as if scolded with a red hot poker as she ran her hand over it. She quickly drew her hand away, trying not to feel the pain.
"Don't let them see the pain, don't let them." she muttered to herself.
Little did she know that standing behind her was George Weasley.
"Don't let us see what?" he asked, innocently.
Elsa almost jumped out of her skin and whipped around. She was not going to let someone know her dark secret this early. She didn't even answer the question. She just ran off. She spotted a boat with three people already in it. A beautiful dark skinned girl called Angelina Johnson, a shy girl with long blonde brown hair called Alicia Spinnet and an almost silver haired girl whom she had not met yet. (She'd sat with Angelina and Alicia for the majority of the train journey.)
"Oh! Hi Elsa!" Alicia exclaimed, "This is Caddy Goodyear! She's a friend of mine!"
Caddy smiled widely at Elsa, "It's nice to meet you, Elsa, Alicia and Angelina told me all nice things about you."
Elsa grinned back and hopped into the boat, and then promptly fell out. She climbed back in and saw George Weasley laughing at her from his boat with Fred, Lee and another boy. Elsa flushed dark red and tried to ignore them, but Caddy's next comment made that quite hard.
"You like him don't you?" she whispered.
Elsa went an even darker shade of red and shook her head. At this point she felt the boat hitting the shore. She quickly climbed out and stood on the deck. She heard a sigh from behind her and she whipped round to see Professor McGonagall looking at her. The professor did a quick non-verbal spell and all the water on Elsa's clothes disappeared so she was dry and usual.
McGonagall did a quick speech about Hogwarts before opening the great hall doors and letting the first years in. Elsa could see many first years attempting the straighten robes or flatten spiky hair. Professor McGonagall brought out an old hat and placed it on the stool. The hat opened it's brim and started to sing. Elsa wasn't listening to any of the song, she was to busy wondering what house she'd be in.
"ABBY, Conner!" yelled McGonagall
"RAVENCLAW!" yelled the hat making all the first years jump.
There was a lot of names being called, but the first she paid attention to was the brown haired boy that Fred, George and Lee had been sitting with.
"ECLING, Thomas!"
The hat took a few moments before yelling
"SLYTHERIN!"
Elsa looked over at Fred and George who were staring disgustedly at their friend.
"GOODYEAR, Caddy!"
"HUFFLEPUFF!"
Elsa groaned. There was no way she'd be going in Hufflepuff.
"JOHNSON, Angelina!"
"GRYFFINDOR!"
"JORDAN, Lee!"
"GRYFFINDOR!"
More and more names went past, many went to Ravenclaw and Gryffindor.
"MALFOY, Elsa!"
"Well well well! A Malfoy," The hat whispered into her ear. "Not like your father at all. You are clever and witty, a good Ravenclaw. You are sly and cunning like a Slytherin, but you would do best in GRYFFINDOR!"
It yelled the last word for everyone to hear. The Gryffindors clapped, and so did the people in Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. Slytherin was silent. She even heard one Slytherin mutter.
"We thought we were going to get Malfoy for sure."
The awkward silence was broken by another name,
"SPINNET, Alicia!"
"GRYFFINDOR!"
A wildly grinning Alicia came a sat down next to Elsa.
"That was unexpected!" she smiled, "A Malfoy in Gryffindor? Awesome!"
Elsa smiled. A rare true smile crept onto her lips, causing burning pain on the pack of her neck. Elsa quickly dropped the smile, ignoring the odd looks Angelina and Alicia were giving her.
"WEASLEY, Fred!"
This name made Elsa turn around
"GRYFFINDOR!"
Elsa sighed, but then drew breath as it moved onto the next name,
"WEASLEY, George!"
Elsa crossed her fingers under the desk, hoping that he would be in...
"GRYFFINOR!"
She leapt out of her seat and gave him a big hug as he sat down, making them both go red and move away. She coughed silently and sat down again. This made even Caddy give her knowing looks from the Hufflepuff table. Angelina started a quiet chant of,
"Elsa and George, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"
Elsa attempted to kick her under the table, but she missed and kicked Lee who gave her a confused look, and went back to his cheesecake. Elsa stifled a giggle. She couldn't think of anything better than annoying her father by befriending as many Muggle-borns, Weasleys and Half-bloods as possible.
