Disclaimer: so you should all know by now that I do not own Harry Potter or anything from the books.
Hey…heres the new chapter...Thanx for all the reviews, and I know I only just put the last chapter up yesterday but I was suddenly full of ideas so I wrote this chapter.
Alex sat and watched as the first years were sorted into the various houses, she knew what happened during the sorting, it was a similar process, which her old school Fascino Quas had used. She sighed and looked up at the teacher's desk, regretting that she had agreed to be sorted.
Her eyes travelled along the table, until they stopped at her mother. She watched her mother as she watched the sorting, while talking to a teacher with dirty blonde hair on the left to her. Alex was surprised to find that her father was sitting was on her mothers right, although he didn't look very happy, as if he would rather be anywhere but sitting there. He looked up at the girl and smiled as their eyes made eyes contact. Alex knew then she had a good father and smiled back at him.
Eventually Alex began to look at the different tables filled with students, until her eyes stopped at the table beneath the red and gold banners.
The Gryffindor table she thought, she knew that was the house her mother had wanted her to be sorted into, by now though Alex had decided that she didn't care which house she was put into, even if it was slytherin, her father had been in there and he seemed alright. Right?
Her eyes moved along the Gryffindor table before they stopped at her (almost) cousin Paul, he was sitting next to a boy with brown hair and a girl with bright red hair who looked to be the same age as Alex. Next to the girl were two younger boys; all three of them had the same bright red hair as Paul. They must be Weasley's too she though smiling slightly.
Her eyes continued to move across the Gryffindor students who were watching the sorting, until she came across Riley. He was sitting with three other boys, one had blonde hair, while the other two had dark brown hair. They weren't watching the sorting, instead they were talking to each other and laughing, but not loud enough for any of the teachers to hear them. Suddenly the boy with the blonde hair looked at Alex, she did not look away as Riley turned to look at her aswell, before they both turned back to their other friend laughing.
"And along with the first years, we also have our new teachers. First we have Professor Walker, who will be teaching the history of Magic." Alex turned back to the teacher's table as Dumbledore began to speak and watched as the mad with the dirty blonde hair next to her mother stood up.
"And secondly we have another of our past students, Professor Granger, who will be teaching charms." Dumbledore paused as the students clapped slowly, "however, along with Professor Granger, comes her Daughter from Fascino Quas, and along with Hogwarts tradition she must now be sorted into her house, where she will continue her schooling in the fifth year."
"Granger, Alexandria" Ginny Weasley said, as Alex made her way to the stool where the sorting hat was sitting. She gave the girl an encouraging smile as she placed the house on top of black curls.
Well what do we have here? The daughter of a slytherin and a Gryffindor? Interesting…the hat said to her as she tried to look calm, instead of nervous, as the entire school watched her.
However, you belong in only on those houses, so it had better be…Alex held her breath while she waited for the hat to continue.
"GRYFFINDOR" the heat shouted, as there came cheers from the red and gold table.
"Alex," Paul yelled out "Come sit with us." She made her way over to the table and sat between Paul and the girl with the red hair.
"Hey," the girl said as Paul began to talk with the boy next to him, "I'm Nicole Weasley, or you can call me Nikki. I'm in fifth too." She smiled but stopped talking as the headmaster began to talk.
Alex didn't listen to him and was instead looking at the other people on the long table.
Hermione smiled and clapped as the hat announced her daughter was a Gryffindor; she could feel Blaise next to her clapping as well.
"I thought you would have wanted her in slytherin" Hermione said still watching her daughter.
"I wouldn't want that on anyone" Blaise said glancing at Hermione, "besides she's too much like you to not be in Gryffindor."
The conversation ended when the feast began and Hermione was distracted into a conversation with the Handsome Professor Walker.
Alex smiled as Nicole talked to her, she reminded her of Georgie and Alex knew that they would become good friends.
"So, these are my younger brothers," Nicole said pointing to the two boys next to her, "it's Matty and Bill, after our dad." Alex nodded her mother had told her about Bill Weasley and how he had fallen in Love with Fleur Delacour during the war.
"So are you guys the only other Weasley's here... Besides Paul?" Alex asked
Nicole shook her head as she took a sip of her pumpkin juice.
"No, there Claire and Stefanie, their Uncle Charlie's twins, and Riley Potter." She said pointing at two girls in the year below them and then at Riley who was at the other end to the table.
"We don't really see him much though," Nicole said.
Alex frowned "why not?"
"Because he thinks he's better than the rest of the family just because his dad is Harry potter and he acts like a stupid git all the time, even more when he's with his friends." She said, not noticing Alex frown.
"Oh right," Alex responded before looking back down at her plate.
Once the feast had ended Nicole took Alex back to the Gryffindor common room.
"Our dorm is upstairs" She began, 'there's me, you, Sam, Jess and Natalie. They usually just hang out with themselves, I don't gossip enough to hang out with them so" she shrugged.
Alex looked around as Nicole spoke to her, the common room was simple, but still elegant with most of the furniture in red or gold. She nodded, as Nicole finished speaking, before the blonde haired boy, Alex recognised as Riley's friend told her to get out the way.
"Oh, sorry," Alex said stepping to the side so that he could get past and Alex noticed that riley was right behind him, she gave him a small smile but he just ignored her.
"Next time walk around" Nicole told the boy. "God, their so annoying, I can't believe I'm related to riley sometimes."
Alex was a bout to tell her that she had talked to him in the holidays but as she was about to speak she noticed the two of them laughing and looking at Nicole so she decided against it.
"So, do you want to hang out or something, cos I could introduce to everyone else if you want" Nicole asked her.
Alex just shook her head " no, I'm a little tired actually...I think I might just go to bed." Nicole nodded and took her up to the dorm where her trunks had already been bought up. She slowly put on her pyjamas while Nicole talked to her and climbed into bed.
"Night Alex," she heard Nicole say.
"Night Nic," she said back, smiling to her self she knew that it was going to be different here, but at least she had a friend.
"Hermione?" Ginny Potter repeated, "Hermione are you listening to me?"
"Huh?" Hermione looked at her friend "what?" she asked seeing her friends grin.
"I asked you what you thought of our new Professor?" she said.
Hermione shrugged, "He's ok…I guess."
"Ok?' Ginny repeated, "you barely talked to anyone else during the feast, even now your not paying attention to me, you're too busy watching him." She said the last part in a whisper so that the other teachers in the staff room did not hear her.
Before Hermione could reply Harry had walked over to the two witches and grabbed his wife around the waist, whispering something in her ear. Ginny giggled, before blushing, and pushing Harry away.
"No, your mine, I'm not letting go," Harry said jokingly.
"Harry, just because were mar-" Ginny began to say before getting cut off by Harry kissing her. Hermione stood up at this and began to make her way over to where Ron and Blaise were talking.
"I think they had a bit too much wine," Professor Walker said blocking her path to the two men, pointing at Harry and Ginny, who were now trying to get out of the staff room unnoticed.
"Yeah…probably..." Hermione nodded, spluttering her words out.
She looked down at her feet, she could feel Ron watching her laughing. She just hoped Blaise wasn't watching.
Why do you care what Blaise thinks? She asked her self silently.
Because your still love him a different voice said
No, I don'tYea, you do,
Shut up.
Suddenly Hermione realised that Professor Walker was watching her as she struggled with her thoughts.
"UM, I'm kind of tired, and classes start tomorrow, I guess I'll see you then" she said smiling at the man, before making her way toward the door.
Hermione had been walking the castle hallways for ten minutes, she had said that she was tired and wanted to prepare for her classes tomorrow, but ti wasn't that she had to leave because she didn't know if she could face any of the people in there after realising something that she though had ended fifteen years ago.
I still love him? She asked herself, stopping at a window. She watched the whomping willow as it thrashed around at nothing, at least nothing Hermione could see.
She shook her head and pushed all thoughts of Blaise out her mind, before finally heading back t her room.
Hermione put her hand on the brass doorknob and went to turn it.
"Hermione" she heard a familiar voice say…
