Chapter 2 – The sorting
As we exited the train with our luggage a short man came bounding along the platform towards me.
"Ah, the transfer I presume. I'm Professor Flitwick, please follow me." I waved to the boys nervously and followed him into a small room of the main platform. It contained only a fire place and a small pot of flu powder.
"It's so you don't have to cross the lake with the first years," explained the Professor in a high squeaky voice. I carefully took the powder and threw it into the fire with me. "Hogwarts!!" I felt the ground spin from under my feet. Finally I stumbled out into a large office. The walls were covered in portraits of old people. A man was sat in a high back chair, had a long silvery hair, with half moon spectacles perched in front of hid twinkly eyes.
"You must be our transfer student. My name is Professor Dumbledore and I'm headmaster here at Hogwarts." He said quite grandly but with kindness in his features.
"I ..um… my name is Adele, um… please can I be in Gryffindor?" I couldn't help but ask, the marauders were my friends.
"Well the sorting hat will decide," he said chuckling. "Now if you'll follow me, the feast is about to start and we have children to sort." He stood and walked to the door, I followed trying to keep up with his vast pace.
As we rounded the corner there was a group of small children with a woman standing in front of them. They looked petrified and one girl was slightly crying. As she looked up to see who was approaching I saw she looked like my sister. I ran towards her and knelt down so I was a similar height. I wiped away a tear and handed her a tissue.
"There now, it's going to be alright. I'm new too and I know it's a bit scary but you'll be fine." I said smiling at her bewildered face. "Now what's you name?" I asked gently as she stopped crying.
"I'm May," came a small voice.
"Well May we can be sorted together, I'm Adele." She gave a small sniff and smiled. I stood back up and turned to see both Professors looking rather pleased.
"Well Miss Morgan good luck." The headmaster said before entering the hall.
"Miss Morgan? You will be sorted at the very end so if you can wait here until called," said the other Professor, gesturing to a stone bench.
"No problem," I replied. I turned to May, "Looks like you'll have to go in without me." Her face fell but then another girl came over.
"Excuse me; I was wondering if you wanted to walk with us? I'm Pip and my friends over there are Eli and Tammy," she said confidently, May nodded and walked of with her.
I sighed as the Professor opened the door and ushered the 1st years inside. It was going to be a long wait I thought as I sat on the cold bench. Applause or cheering would come from inside every now and again but apart from that I couldn't hear anything.
Suddenly the doors burst open and I could hear Dumbledore saying "now this year we have another new student, she is a 6th year transfer from Beuxbaton. Miss Adele Morgan!" I knew that was my cue so I stepped into the bright light by the doorway. There were 4 long tables down the hall with what seemed thousands of pupils sat at them. As I walked up the centre isle I felt eyes follow me, burning a hole in my back.
As I walked past the boys they gave me the thumbs up which made me smile knowing that they were still there for me. As I reached the top I turned sitting onto the stool. I glanced at Snape and Malfoy who were sneering at me. I was about look at the marauders when a hat came down over my eyes.
"Hmm a 6th year, courageous and caring, very loyal, I see you want to please your new friends." All I could think of was Gryffindor, please let it be Gryffindor.
"GRYFFINDOR!" I sighed as the hat was removed from my head and a cheer erupted from the red and gold table. I slid in between Sirius and James while keeping my eyes at the table. James pulled me into a one armed hug while Sirius chanted, "We got the new girl!" repeatedly. Remus smiled reassuringly, a girl with flaming hair two seats caught my eye and smiled at me. I smiled back hoping she would be my friend.
The food appeared and I dug in watching the boys. James had a very elegant face; big brown eyes were covered with glasses. Remus had hair which framed his scared face, a slender scar traced across his face shining silver in the light. I turned to Sirius who was totally gorgeous, his black hair hung artistically in his face, his mouth hiding in the corner a birth kiss. At that moment he glanced up meeting his silver eyes to mine, he grinned as he caught me staring. I blushed and looked away.
"I'm going to bed." I announced after pudding. The boys nodded in acknowledgment. Sirius lent into my before I got up, "6th year boys dorm midnight." His breath tickled my ear causing me to shiver slightly. Then he turned back for seconds of the trifle. I got up and headed to Gryffindor tower. I wondered what they wanted or what they were going to do.
"Caput draconis" I went through the portrait hole and climbed the stairs to my dorm. I flung myself onto the bed nearest my trunk. I giggled slightly excited about what he wanted with me at midnight. I sighed knowing I was being silly, and rolled over drifting off to sleep.
