"What girl came in here?" I asked Crabbe as I sat down from using the loo.
"Some dark haired girl." He answered.
"Was it Pansy?" I replied coldly.
"No, it was some other girl. She had color in it."
"Which way did she go?" I practically jumped out of my seat as Crabbe told me about that girl, that beautiful girl.
"She went that way." He said, pointing up the train car.
"Damn!" I swore. The train stopped and the three of us exited our compartment. "I'll never find her is this jumble of people." I thought. I walked in front of them, the self-proclaimed leader of our group, and we walked along the platform of the train station of Hogwarts.
"First years, this way!" I heard that oaf Hagrid bellow.
"Come on, let's go." I said leading Crabbe and Goyle along the lake. I caught a glimpse of my crush and that mudblood know-it-all Hermione Granger. I tried to get her attention, but she just kept talking to Granger.
"Why are you looking at Granger?!" Goyle asked.
"I'm not!" I said, getting into a boat. They followed and as soon as everyone got into a boat, they begin the slow trip across the lake to the castle.
The boats stopped on the beach and the three of us and the rest of the first years clambered out of the boats and began the walk up the mountain. We got to the gate and walked to the front doors of the castle. When we entered, instead of going to the Great Hall, we were ushered towards a set of doors that led to a little chamber beneath the Hall.
At the top of the staircase on the other side of the chamber, we were greeted by Professor McGonagall. She started to talk, but I just tuned her out. I think she said something about being sorted. She finished talking and walked away.
Through the group of first years, I heard whispers of Harry Potter. I made my way to the front to introduce myself. "So it's true then," I said, standing in front of him. "Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts. This is Crabbe and Goyle. And I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy." The red-head next to Potter snickered. "Think my name's funny do you? No need to ask yours. Red hair, and a hand-me-down robe, you must be a Weasley." That shut him up. "You know Potter, there are two kinds of wizards. You don't want to go making friends with the wrong sort." I held my hand out for him to shake.
"I think I can tell the wrong sort for myself, thanks." He replied, looking from my hand to my face. I was just about to say something when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around thinking it was a student, and looked up into the face of Professor McGonagall. I motioned for Crabbe and Goyle to follow me to the back of the group of our classmates.
"We're ready for you now." McGonagall said. We got into two lines and walked through the doors into the Great Hall. We walked up to the front of the Hall, stopped a few feet in front of the professor's table and began to be sorted into the 4 houses of Hogwarts: Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Gryffindor. I was hoping for Slytherin so that Father wouldn't be disappointed in me for once.
