Chapter 14 - I Belong In Slytherin


Harry had gone home after at least a month after he had Lily. His home was Grimmauld Place ever since the end of his sixth year. For some reason, Dumbledore had him resorted into a new house, because he believed he didn't belong in Gryffindor. He was now in Grimmauld Place and he was trying the Sorting Hat on again.

'Would you like to know where you really belong?'The hat asked. 'My answer is… SLYTHERIN!'

Well, if anyone wasn't shocked then, they were now. Dumbledore and Sirius had both fallen out of their chairs in amazement and Harry looked down at his feet, tears streaming from his eyes.

"You don't… hate me now, do you?"Harry asked.

"Why in the name of Merlin would I hate you!"Sirius yelled. "You're my godson!"

"Because I'm in Slytherin."

"Look at me, Harry. Look at me,"Sirius said, as Harry looked up. "No matter what house you're in, no matter whose blood you have, I still care for you like nobody else."

And that's when Harry broke down.

Draco had walked over to Grimmauld Place and when he rang the bell, Remus Lupin answered the door.

"Professor, is Harry there?"Draco asked.

"He is, but…I wouldn't go in there now."

"Why?"

"He's crying."

"What!"Draco yelled. "THEN WHY THE HELL SHOULD I NOT BE ALLOWED IN TO SEE HIM!"

"Sirius is taking care of him, you have my word, Draco."

Draco growled, and walked into the house, to only hear Harry's wretching sobs. It tore at Draco's heart to hear him like this, and he was wondering if Harry would ever get over being in Slytherin after all.

Ron and Hermione walked in Grimmauld Place later that day and saw Draco in the living room sleeping on the arm chair of a couch,

"Hey, why's Malfoy…"

Suddenly, Ron heard the heart wretching sobs of Harry Potter coming from upstairs.

"What's wrong with him, do you suppose?"

"Ah, Ron, Hermione,"Sirius said, walking in to the living room.

"What was wrong with Harry?"

"He's asleep now,"Sirius replied. "He was just resorted."

"And…"Hermione said.

"The answer was Slytherin."

The two of t hem gasped. "Really?"

Sirius nodded, then a course of wails sounded throughout the room.

"Is that…."

"Yes, that's Lily,"Sirius said. "Why don't you two go into the kitchen and I'll be out in a minute?"

They both nodded and walked away, not realizing the horror of Harry being in Slytherin.
