"Hannah Abbott!" McGonagall yelled.
She was sorted into Hufflepuff.
"Susan Bones"
A girl with blonde hair walked up to the chair and sat down.
"Hufflepuff!" the hat screamed
A few more people went up.
"Hermione Granger"
Hermione walked up to the stool and the hat was put on her head.
"Gryffindor!" the hat screamed.
Hermione smiled and went to go sit down at the Gryffindor table. I heard Ron groan. The next few people were sorted in to Hufflepuff, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff.
"Neville Longbottom."
It took the hat about a minute to figure out where to put Neville but it was Gryffindor. Another few went by Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.
"Draco Malfoy."
Draco walked up to the stool and the hat was put on his head and it yelled.
"Slytherin". Even though I try not to judge people I'm not surprised he was sorted into Slytherin. A few more went by Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw.
"Harry Potter."
It suddenly got silent and everyone leaned forward in anticipation. The hat took about three minutes to figure out where to put Harry but it finally decided on Gryffindor.
"Delaney Romero!"
I went up to the stool and the hat was put on my head.
"Ahh, I know you want to be in Gryffindor with all your friends."
"I do but it doesn't really matter."
"Hufflepuff!" the hat screamed.
I smiled and ran off to the Hufflepuff table. A few more more sortings went by and it was Taylor's turn. She was sorted into Hufflepuff like I was. Ron was sorted into Gryffindor. I feel sorry for Harry, Hermione and Neville for having to deal with him.
"Hi, I'm Justin Finch Fletchley." a boy with brown hair and brown eyes said.
"I'm Delaney Romero." I smiled
"Are you a muggle born?" He asked.
"I'm a half blood actually, both my parents are halfbloods, how about you?"
"I'm a muggle born."
"I'm a muggleborn too." said Taylor.
"I'm a half blood too." a girl with blonde hair exclaimed.
"As am I" a girl with red hair exclaimed.
"I'm Hannah." The blonde said
"I'm Susan." The redhead said
"I'm Ernie." A new voice said.
We finished eating.
"I'm Gabriel," the prefect greeted cheerily.
He led us to outside of the common room and tapped on one of the barrels. The common reminded me of a hobbit hole. I had read the muggle book The Hobbit.
"This is the Hufflepuff common room, boy dormitories up the stairs to the left, girls the same on the right."
He continued "Room assignments are posted on the wall."
I walked to the wall. I was rooming with Susan, Taylor, Hannah and a girl named Megan. This should be fun. We got know each other. We finished unpacking and went to bed. I was excited for the first day of classes tomorrow but a little nervous too. It was now the next morning we got up and went to breakfast and to our first lesson which was Transfiguration.
"Good morning, Professor McGonagall" I said.
"Good morning."
We had Transfiguration with the Gryffindors so I sat by Hermione. The rest of the class filed in. We started the lesson. About 10 minutes later, Harry and Ron rushed in. McGonagall transformed from her Animagus to human form. Hermione and I watched as they got chewed out for being late. We both rolled our eyes even though I was laughing inside and went back to our work. Their next class was Potions. I had History of Magic. The teacher was boring but I actually liked the subject. The day continued. I had Potions first with the Ravenclaws. Then I had Defense Against the Dark Arts with Harry, Hermione and Neville. I know I had been trying to avoid them the last few days.
Why has she been avoiding them?
