*Dramatic Pause* The Sorting
*3rd Person Point of View* "Calm down, calm down!" Professor McGonagall said at the top of the stairs catching all the children's attention. "Alright then beyond these doors is your future. You will be sorted in alphabetical order into one of the four houses: Hufflepuff." She glanced around the room, "Slytherin," If possible her grimace worsened, "Ravenclaw," She smiled at everyone, "And finally Gryffindor!" Everyone began talking at once and Minerva raised her arms, "SHUSH!" Silence, "Alright now if you will speak in hushed voices and wait patiently I will return and then your will be sorted." Cedric breathed deeply, "So that means I'll be one of the first." Tara smirked, "You don't even need to be sorted your gonna get in Hufflepuff." Cedric rolled his eyes, "Well Miss I know everything what house are you going to be sorted into?" Tara made a face, "That is classified information." Cedric laughed and Laura fidgeted. "Ah come on Laura! Don't be so uptight! I'm sure you'll get put in an excellent house!" Laura opened her mouth but was interrupted by Katie Bell. "Hey, Tara, right?" Katie walked up to the group with a smile. "Yes.." Tara said in suspicion. "Yeah well I just wanted to say.." "Alright everyone it is time to be sorted!" Katie sighed as McGonagall started leading everyone into the Great Hall. "Look I'll talk to you later ok?" Katie smiled again making Tara feel awful for acting the way she had earlier. Katie probably had only been nervous not rude. Tara murmured a few choice words as she saw Oliver walk towards her. Her head was pounding and she didn't feel like talking to him before she was sorted. "Hey Tara!" Oliver whispered and stood next to her as they walked in the doors, Cedric on her other side. "Hey Oliver." She replied flatly with a small smile. "Well I just wanted to say good luck, ya know.." Tara smiled as Oliver replied with his cheery voice. She giggled lightly as they reached the middle of the hall, "Your not as grouchy when your dry and frizzy." Oliver's face got a scared look as he reached up to touch his hair. He got a dry smirk as he realized she was only joking. She suddenly saw a flash of bright red hair, "Hey isn't that Percy?" Oliver made a face, "What?" She looked to where his eyes were directed and grinned, "Hey Marcus!" She winked with a giggle. Marcus grunted and started talking to his Slytherin buddies with an ugly smile plastered on his face. "Tara!" Oliver whined. "Tara.." Cedric said and gently tugged on her sleeve. "Huh?! Oh hey Cedric this is Oliver, Oliver this is Cedric." Cedric nodded and Oliver nodded back. "Anyways look they got that sorting hat out!" They all turned just in time to hear the last of the hat's song, "Gryffindor valiant in honor and loyalty, Hufflepuff charms with its admission, Ravenclaw in fair and intellectually, and Slytherin with a power hungry ambition, Which one which one? Come and be sorted no need to run! Just call forth and be a new with the crew." Small claps went throughout the room as the hat smiled smugly, "Alright come on give me all you got!" McGonagall got out a long parchment and cleared her throat, "Toby Anderson!" AS soon as the blond was called she placed the hat on his head and it called, "Ravenclaw!" All the students at Ravenclaw cheered and clapped approvingly. "Katherine Bell!" Tara heard Oliver make a small 'go Katie!' Katie sat on the stool and held her breath, ".GRYFFINDOR!" Gryffindor table burst out in a wave of happiness and Tara could see Percy clapping and talking with a happy smile on his face. "Laurence Crawford." Larry gave a high five to Oliver as he walked past. He sat on the stool with a wry smile, "Hufflepuff!" Hufflepuff cheered as the others had done, "Gary Crawford!" Gary literally ran up with a HUGE smile plastered on. "All right than.Gryffindor!" Oliver grinned as his small friend hurried along obviously happy with himself. "Cedric Diggory!" Beside Tara Cedric walked forward getting a few 'looks' from the girls. The hat was placed on his head, "Hmmm.very sweet boy.HUFFLEPUFF!" Tara smiled and winked at Cedric as he looked at her on his way to the table. 'Told you so!' (for the sake of you I will skip people and only insert people you know from the story or otherwise) "Julia Jackson!" Laura and Tara clapped as Julia walked up brushing her hair over her shoulder. The hat touched her head lightly and it flinched, "Ahh very interesting, hiding the truth from the others.Slytherin!" Tara choked on air and Laura blinked rapidly, "Slytherin?" Julia brushed her hair over her shoulder again and walked arrogantly towards the Slytherin table where all the cocky brutes (sorry to Slytherin lovers!) were waiting. "Ah wait I skipped one.Terrence Higgins." Much like Julia the hat grimaced, "Slytherin!" Tara had gotten over the shock and nudged Oliver and Laura, "And I thought Cedric was cute." "Tara he's a Slytherin!" Oliver hissed lowly with a red tinge on his cheeks having a double meaning in it. "Laura McDawg!" "Go Laura!" Tara said and patted Laura on the back." She paused, "Oliver really I mean Cedric is a nice guy don't be jealous you'll always be my grouchy swamp monster!" She finished just as the hat was placed on Laura's head. "Ravenclaw!!!" Tara clapped and nudged Oliver, "Hey I was only kidding Swamp Thing." Oliver growled under his breath, "You better shut it." "Or what," She teased. "Oh you'll see." Oliver muttered as he heard a girl named, Marigold Right, called, "You're probably next." And just like his prediction, "Tara Rose!" Tara bit her lip as she heard Cedric whistle across the room, "See ya later." Oliver held his breath as she walked up. She slowly sat down and McGonagall frowned and set the hat on Tara's head. The hat was so big on her she felt as if it would swallow her whole. "Not likely.hmmmmm....Gryffindor!" Tara giggled and took the hat off before running towards the table and sitting next to Percy, Katie across from her and Gary next to Katie. Percy smiled and clapped as some more people were sorted, "Marcus is glaring daggers at ya, rather scary if ya ask me." Tara smiled and looked at where Marcus was seated, right next to Julia. 'Julia.. man yet another mystery to add to my list.' Tara raised an eyebrow and rolled her eyes and mouthed, 'WHAT?' Marcus' mouth twitched and he leaned over and told Julia something. Tara wasn't that good at lip reading but when Julia looked over at her she was sure they were talking about her. "Oliver Wood!" Tara's head snapped up and she saw that unlike she would have thought Oliver WASN'T the last one up there. Oliver walked casually and sat on the stool comfortably and with a cool demeanor. The air stood still for moments before."GRYFFINDOR!" Tara clapped happily as did all the other Gryffindor's. Oliver walked over and plopped own exhausted next to Tara, "Phew!" "Hey Tara." Katie whispered over the table. "Yes?" "Never mind." Katie blushed. Tara smirked and leaned over the table, "You can tell me tonight. We'll probably be roomies." Katie nodded and Oliver elbowed Tara, "That would so cool if you two were roomies." Tara groaned, "Oliver!"
"What?" Oliver said with a shrug making Katie and Percy laugh. "Percy! I didn't see ya there buddy!" Oliver said and reached around Tara and patted Percy on the back. "Tara!" Laura whispered loudly from the table behind theirs. "Huh? Oh Laura!" Tara looked behind her with a smile, "Yes Darlin?" "Tara!" Laura giggled, "Cedric told me to have all the gang meet tomorrow during break at that statue by the fields." "The gang?" Tara asked bewildered. "Yeah you know, Julia, Larry, Gary, Oliver, Katie, him, you and me." Laura said in one breath. "Oh.so Olive boy and his gang are now part of OUR gang?" Tara scuffed, while all the others at the table grinned. "Yep!" Laura said before turning to the front where the headmaster and teachers were standing. "Great I'm never gonna get rid of ya!" Tara groaned and sank in her seat next to Oliver. Percy laughed, "Yeah well just be happy you have some of your friends in the house. I had to start all over. All my friends got in different houses." "Not like any of mine did." Tara grumbled. Katie laughed, "Poor Tara!" Everyone at their end of the table laughed while Percy turned to a 7th year and engaged himself in a conversation. "Don't worry Tara you'll always be the Pretty Rose Princess!" Oliver grinned and coughed. "Say it again Oliver say it again!" Tara warned with a fist. ~~~~~END P-Chan: Look if you don't like it don't read it! And I must admit this may sound like a Mary Sue, but its not! *Blushes* Ok so it may be a little bit (I made Tara in honor of Loverina cause she's so wonderful!) and because it was your opinion I won't take down the review. Loverina: *whimpers in fright* don't not write your next chapter cause I made you mad! *Smiles mysteriously* I have a feeling you'll be happy by this chapter though and you'll be happier by the next one! And in answer to the question you may ask yourself. No I did not write this on your account (sorry! ^_^) I planned for this to happen the whole way through. I really love Katie Bell; she's a great character, almost like the female equivalent of Oliver! Oh yes.I know the sorting was confusing and stuff I switched some names around and such (i.e. Gary after Larry) *Giggles* Well I'll have the next chappie out soon! Oh yeah and Larry and Gary are actually two people I know and that IS the true story, their mom's are married to the same man and they are the happiest people I know. I just though it would be neat to put them in here cause they are dedicated fans of Harry Potter and crew; I met them through their cousin Cody. Well I'm outtie than! Bye! Angelfish-Smile
