There was a sorting ceremony that night. It was rather special. Everyone craned their heads to see which house the first years' would be sorted into. All of the students were curious about the pretty exchange students with strange accents. A bunch of obnoxious 7th years leered at them. A flaming redhead, from what looked to be the Gryffindor table, told them to go fornicate with themselves.

"What house do you think we will be in? Draco says that Slytherin is the best one, what do you think? It is for the cunning and ambitious…is that me? I suppose I want to be in it, if Draco is in it." Laura blushed.

Stephanie tightened her mouth. Draco was a very good-looking boy, with his icy white hair and large green eyes. He was pale too and Laura liked pale boys. She had really liked this guy at MapleLeafAGoGoSchool who was just as pale as Malfoy. There was something about Draco that made Stephanie cringe. She didn't like how he had scarcely talked to her. What was wrong with him? He seemed very unfriendly and arrogant. And there was a coldness in his eyes that made her shiver. She didn't want to tell Laura about her doubts because Laura was still slightly bummed about how pale Rocky, from MapleLeafAGoGoSchool had hardly noticed her. Draco seemed to talk to Laura quite eagerly, so Stephanie decided to be happy for her, even if a feeling in her gut disagreed with it.

"Look Stephanie! It's that boy! Oh, what's his name?!" Laura cried excitedly.

"Ron?" Steph answered.

"YEAH! That's it, Ron." Laura squealed with excitement. She was blushing even more furiously. Since when did that girl blush? Stephanie looked over to see the tall, pale redhead that Laura had ogled over on the Hogwarts Express. Laura had a thing for red heads and had stared at this one for the whole trip. He was sitting beside Harry and Hermione. They were both looking at them. Stephanie noticed Harry's scar for the first time that day, but she forgot that she had met him on the train…

"Laura, do you think that that is Harry Potter?" Stephanie asked.

"Sheesh Steph! We just sat with them on the train for 3 and a half hours and you can't even remember who he is?…and besides, who cares?! He is friend's with that red-haired hottie, Ron!" Laura said.

'She has the nerve to call me forgetful? She couldn't even remember the other guy's name!' Steph thought to herself and laughed at her friend's forgetfulness.

Laura was certainly on a role at Hogwarts. Her and Steph weren't even in the school half an hour and she was already crushing over 2 guys!

"And look…that other red head is checking you out!" Laura yelled a little too loudly.

Stephanie looked and saw two red head boys that looked exactly alike staring at her. One was slightly better looking than the other boy. Sure enough, that boy was staring at Stephanie intently. He saw her stare and he waved. Stephanie felt her knees give out from beneath her.

"WHOA! Steph, you okay?" Laura yelled.

"Laura, I just fell, I am not going deaf." Steph smirked as she tried to stand up.

"Oh, Ok, just checking," Laura said a little quieter. Laura helped Steph up. They noticed that the whole school had just witnessed Steph's fall. Steph blushed profusely.

"It's alright everybody, I'm OK!" Steph announced.

Just then, an older woman approached them with a stool and old battered hat in hand.

"I am Professor McGonnagal. You two are to be sorted with the first years," she stated.

Laura and Stephanie got in line with several small frightened looking kids. Stephanie was first to get sorted. She heard her name get called out and took a breath. She sat on the chair and looked at the hot red head twin who smiled at her as the hat was placed upon her head.

"Hmmm…you've got brains, kid." The hat began to speak, "You are also very courageous and cunning. You'd do good in any house, but I will choose…GRYFFINDOR!"

The Gryffindor table roared with clapping and shouting. Steph got off the stool and placed that hat on it. As she walked down towards the Gryffindor table, she noticed Harry, Ron, Hermione, and the cute redheaded twins flagging her down. Stephanie smiled and walked to the Gryffindor table and sat beside the twins and Ron. Steph then looked over at Laura and gave her a wink, letting her know things will be all right. Steph could tell by the look on Laura's face that she was nervous.

"HEY! That's awesome you got into Gryffindor!" Harry, Ron and Hermione greeted Steph as she took a seat.

"Yeah, I love it when the pretty ones get into gryffie!," Steph blushed, "Hi, I'm Fred Weasley, by the way, and this is my brother George. We're Ron's brothers'" Fred introduced.

"It's nice to meet you both" Steph said cheerfully as she shook their hands.

Laura was impatient to get sorted. Her last name was Pomeroy and was near the end. She saw Draco. He smiled at her. He mouthed "Slytherin," to her. She smiled and kept his eye contact. Then she looked over at the hot red head. She couldn't help herself. He was so hot. He looked at her for what seemed an eternity. Laura felt herself catch her breath. When she looked back at Draco he was not smiling. She heard her name being called.

She sat on the chair. She was shaking with nerves. Which house would she be put into? She wanted to be with Stephanie, of course. Stephanie was her only friend from MapleLeafAGoGoSchool that had gone to Hogwarts. Also, Stephanie was with the hot red head and was chatting to him and what looked like his brothers; she could tell by their flaming hair.

The hat was placed upon her head.

"Good…good. You're clever…perhaps Ravenclaw? But you are brave and loyal, that would be best in Gryfindor. Hm…Hmmm…." The hat mumbled.

"What about Slytherin?" Laura asked thinking of the pale blonde guy.

"You…in Slytherin. No…not you. You are ambitious…but no. You are much too…" he paused then yelled "Gryfindor!" Laura breathed out loud and smiled as the Gryffindors clapped. She sat beside Stephanie and the red haired hottie. Laura was definitely not complaining about her seat!

She talked to Stephanie who introduced her Fred and George. Fred was muttering in Stephanie's ear and Stephanie burst out laughing. Laura waited.

"Laura…this is Fred Weasley…" but Stephanie didn't finish because she was laughing so hard. Her brown hair fell into her face.

Laura giggled and then said, "Yeah, I know, Steph. We've already been through this."

"Oh!" Steph exclaimed, and then giggled, "My bad." Everyone laughed at Steph's slight ditzy ness.

The food then appeared out of nowhere on the tables. It took Laura and Stephanie by surprise. So much in fact that they both fell out of their seats! Ron and Fred rushed to help the girls back into their seats.

"Well, that was embarrassing!" stated Laura.

"Welcome to my life," Steph said laughing, "Always embarrassing myself in one way or another. I'm just one big cluts!" Everyone laughed.

Everyone enjoyed dinner. Steph and Laura mingled with almost everyone sitting at the Gryffindor table.

Dumbledore sat at the teacher's table and watched Laura and Steph from afar. As he did, something dawned on him. Nothing had happened yet. Prank wise. It looked to him that the Weasley twins might settle down this year? Nope.

Just then, all the food at the teachers' table exploded. 'I should have known better.' Dumbledore thought to himself as he helped Professor Flitwick from off of the floor.

After picking Professor Flitwick off of the floor, he quieted the rest of the teachers, and stopped the food explosion. Everyone, minus the teachers, cracked up laughing. Fred and George laughed so hard they ended up on the floor.

"QUIET!" Dumbledore roared, "All of you go are to go to your dorms. Fred and George Weasley, you know the routine," Dumbledore said a bit quieter, with a certain chuckle in his voice.

Fred and George got up and headed for Dumbledore's office. Meanwhile everyone else got up and started heading for their houses.

"We live in dorms?" Laura asked.

"Yeah," Ron replied.

"Sweeeet! Do we get to choose who we stay with in these dorms? Or is it like one person to a dorm?" Steph asked.

"Nope, there are 4 people to a dorm. There are 2 sets of dormitories for each house, one for the boys, one for the girls. I don't think you get to chose who you stay with but Dumbledore is pretty good for putting people with their friends," Hermione filled them in.

Steph and Laura looked amazed. "That's awesome, so do you know who you will be staying with? I hope Laura and I are with you." Steph said to Hermione.

"You are with me and Ginny Weasley, Ron's little sister," Hermione said. Laura blushed at the thought of Ron, and his humongous family. "Now I know you are only suppose to be paired with people your own age, but I asked Dumbledore special permission and he said it was alright," Hermione said and smiled at Ginny, who in return smiled back (AN: kinda freaky, but it's not suppose to sound lesbian-ish).

"Kinky!" Laura and Steph said in unison.

"Pardon?" Ron coughed, a look of pure terror on his face. Had he just met a pair of lesbians? He thought.

"OH!" Laura laughed, "It's our little way of saying cool."

A look of relief crossed Ron's face. 'Ok, no they are not lesbians! WHEW!' Ron thought to himself.

"OK! Let's get to our rooms!" Hermione said excitedly.

Hermione led the 6 of them (Ginny was with them) to the Gryffindor house. It took longer then usual though because they had to save Steph from the moving staircase.

They finally reached the Gryffindor house.

"Well, we're going to go to our dorm and get sorted out," Harry said yawning.

"Yeah, the wee ones will hit the sack as soon as they get up there!" Fred spoke up coming up behind Harry and Ron, scaring the hell out of both of them.

Steph, Laura, Hermione, and Ginny laughed.

"Well, it was nice meeting you two," said Fred while looking at Steph. Steph smiled. Fred smiled back.

"Yeah, you too," Laura said, breaking their eye contact.

They all said goodnight to one another and went their separate ways. The boys all bounded up the stairs to their dorms and Hermione led Steph, Laura, and Ginny up to their dorm.

Hermione stopped in front of the door, "This is it," she said.

"LEMME THROUGH!" Steph shouted and she rammed into the door. What Steph didn't know was that to door was open a crack already. Steph flew through the door and all the way to the other side of the room, smacking up against the wall. "UMPH!" Steph groaned as she crumpled into a huge heap on the floor. Ginny and Laura laughed hysterically. Hermione smiled, but something else was bugging her. Why had the door already been opened?
