I don't own Harry Potter
Ron, Aimee and Hermione disembarked from the train and Aimee heard Hagrid's booming Voice. "First years this way, first years over here." The three first years wound their way through the crowd to stand in front of the giant.
"Hey Amethyst." He smiled when he saw the little red haired girl in front of him
"Hey Hagrid, these are my friends Ron and Hermione."
"Nice to meet you Ron, Hermione." He nodded at the other two kids. He looked over at the group of first years standing in front of him. "Ok everyone no more than four to a boat. They all looked over at the boats bobbing in the slightly choppy water.
The three kids looked at each other and clamored into a boat. A slightly pudgy boy clamored in after them. Hermione turned and smiled at the boy. "Hey Neville." She turned to Ron and Aimee. "This is Neville he's the one I was helping look for his toad.
"Hey Neville." Aimee smiled at the boy.
"Hey." Neville looked down at his shoes as the boat started to go forward. The kids watched with rapt fascination as the boats glided towards a giant castle.
"Wow." Aimee breathed in the cold September air as she took in the sight in front of her.
"I know what you mean." Hermione breathed right beside her. The boats bumped against the shore and the kids all got up getting a closer look at the building that would house them for the next seven years. Hagrid got to the front of the line and lead them to the giant wooden door knocking on it and waiting. It opened with a creaking nose to reaveal a stern women with gray hair and Green robes.
"The first years Professor McGonagall."
"Thank you Hagrid I'll take it from here." Her eyes swept over them seemingly lingering on Aimee for a split second. "Fallow me please," all the kids fell into place behind her. She lead them to a small chamber were she stopped "In a moment we will be sorting you into your houses there are four Ravenclaw Hufflepuff slytherin and Gryffindor your house is like your family please remember that." And with that she was gone.
All the kids waited on tender hooks. "What do you think they'll do to sort us." Hermione whispered.
"I don't know but George says it hurts." Ron whispered back causing Neville to whimper from were he was standing next to them.
"Ron haven't you learned to not always listen to your brothers." Aimee asked.
"Well you never actually know when they may be telling the truth." He shrugged.
Just then the door opened and Professor McGonagall was back. "We're ready for you." They all fell back into line behind her and she led them into an enormous hall.
"Look at the ceiling." Hermione whispered causing Aimee to look up. "Hogwarts a history says its enchanted to look like the night sky. After inspecting the velvety blackness that was the celling Aimee looked in front of her were a ragged hat sat on a stool. McGonagall stopped and the line stopped with her.
"Now I'm going to call out your names and you're going to come up here and try on this hat." She held out a long scroll of parchment.
"I'm going to kill George he was going on about wrestling a troll." Ron muttered.
"Ron seriously," Aimee rolled her eyes. One by one they all got called the first of the group to be called up to the hat was Hermione.
"Hermione Granger." McGonagall called. Hermione took a deep breath and walked forward the hat was placed on her head and she heard a small voice in her head.
"You're a very smart girl yes you are, you'd do well in Ravenclaw but I think you'll to loyal for Ravenclaw. You have something buried deep in you , you just have to find it my dear." And with that the hat screamed out "GRYFFINDOR"
Hermione confused by the hats words handed the hat to the professor and went to the Gryffindor table earning claps from the hall and handshakes from her table.
"Neville Longbottom."
Neville was shaking as he walked towards the hat. He sat down and he felt the hat go over his eyes. "Ah Mr. Longbottom. You aren't as inept as you think my dear boy you just need confidence your friends will help you there. So that's why this house is for you. GRYFFINDOR." The word was shouted and Neville was so excited to be chosen for Gryffindor he almost ran off with the hat still on his head. He slipped into a seat beside Hermione who beamed at her new friend.
"Amethyst Potter." The whole hall went silent. Aimee walked forward wondering if she'd be chosen for anything. She caught George Weasley's eye and he winked at her as the hat fell over her eyes.
Severus Snape had been watching the sorting like he did every year knowing the Potter brat would be there this year an waiting to see the girl he was sure would be the spitting image of James Potter but as her name was called and she came forward his breath caught in his throat. She looked nothing like James Potter she looked like a miniature Lily Even's if her hair wasn't slightly messy and if her eyes didn't hold a slight gold fleck to them you'd never know she was James Potter's daughter.
"Well if it isn't the Potter girl at last, You have a good mind my dear you could do well in any house." The hat felt her shock. "yes even Slytherin but I think you'll do best in Gryffindor with your friends. For in your chest beats the heart of your father. Loyal to a fault standing beside your friends is always your strength my dear remember that. So it should be GRYFFINDOR." The house breathed and she took the hat off and breathed in relief
"We got Potter we got Potter." She heard the twins shouting as the hall exploded into deafening applause. She slipped into a seat by Neville and Hermione which also happened to be directly across from the twins.
"Well Miss Aimee. How does it feel to be in the house of the brave." George asked.
"Maybe it should be the house of the recless with you in it." She smirked back
"you wound me my dear." He fake pouted and she just rolled her eyes.
"Do you always have to be so obnoxious my name is Amethyst yet you insist on calling me Aimee and now Miss. Aimee."
"Well Miss. Aimee I feel I need to call you something different then the rest of the world."
"Why,"
"I just do I just do." He smirked and though she hated it she knew he'd never stop.
"Ron Weasley." They all turned to see Ron make his way to the front.
Ron felt the hat go over his face. "Another Weasley I see but I think you have more courage then all your brother's combined so its GRYFFINDOR." The hat shouted and Ron ran off sitting next to his friends they'd all made it through they were all in the same house. The sorting was soon wrapped up and Dumbledore stood up.
"Welcome to another year at our fair Hogwarts. This year the third floor corridor is out of bounds as is the forbidden forest and there is a list of banned object on Filtch's door now lets eat." And with that he clapped his hands and food appeared on the golden plates.
Aimee loaded her plate and looked around the hall her eyes landed on one of the teachers who's eyes seemed to linger on her. "Who is that." She asked Ron's older brother.
"That's Snape he's head of Slytherin house." Aimee nodded before her eyes landed on Qurrell the teacher she had met in the Leaky cauldron. She felt a tingle in her scar but shrugged it off. She chatted with Ron Hermione and Neville until all the food was gone and they were being lead out of the great hall and towards their common room.
Their common room was amazing all red's and golds. "Ok now girls are up to your right boys the same on your left." Percy instructed them. Aimee was ready to Follow Hermione when George stopped her.
"Yes Georgie."
"One how do you always know its me."
"I'll never tell." She joked not wanting him to know that well him and Fred were almost identical the blue's of their eyes were slightly different.
"Secondly name's George not Georgie." He really didn't care what she called him not that he'd tell her that."
"What ever you say Georgie." She smirked.
"Lastly if you ever need anything come to me."
"I'll keep that in mind," she shook her head in amusment and made her way up the staircase.
"Mate you have it bad." Fred joked with his brother.
"Don't I know." George shook his head as him and Fred made their way to their dorm.
Aimee said goodnight to Hermione as she slipped into bed and her mind was taken over by a pair of soft blue eyes.
