Here's the second Chapter everyone...please read and review

Serenity sat in her compartment trying to focus on her Hogwarts: A History book rather then the house of Hogwarts. She could not stand having this pressure set on her mind! It was destroying her confidence and making her stomach hurt with anxiety.

Hogwarts' four houses are named as such, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Gryfindor, and Slytherin. Each house represents certain personalities the student has. Ravenclaw is known to be the house of the extremely intelligent, Hufflepuff is known for its trusting students and constant humility, Gryfindor is known for its effortless bravery and courageous nature, and Slytherin is known for those who are extremely clever and cunning.

"That's why dad is in Slytherin." Serenity sighed reading on.

Each house has its own mascot in the form of an animal. Ravenclaw's is a Raven, Hufflepuff's is a Badger, Gryfindor's is that of a large Lion, and Slytherin's is a serpent Along with the House animals are the house colors which the founders made sure were vibrant and noticeable. Ravenclaw bears there banners with the colors Baby Blue and Blue, Hufflepuff bears Yellow and Brown, Gryfindor proudly wears Red and Gold, and Slytherin with its magnificent Green and Silver.

"Now, I know why daddy has such a fetish for Green which must be why I like the color so much too." Serenity said feeling frustrated.

She could not decide, nor did she feel that she belonged to any house! Her father was in the Cunning house of Slytherin! Serenity was anything but cunning! She was always found out in her lies by her father so easily and that applies to be cunning! Her mother Lily was sorted into the house of bravery…please, Serenity was afraid of many things.

Maybe she would not be sorted at all and put into a misfit class maybe-

"Stop!" Serenity spat throwing the book to the other side of the compartment and biting her lip.

She did that far too often and let her own thoughts carry her away into foolish fantasies or nightmares. It would stop right now! And if it didn't Serenity would have to make it stop by shoving her wand-

"Hello?"

Serenity's eyes went up to a young boy's. He was absolutely…HOT…Serenity thought feeling her cheeks blush.

"Uh…Hi." She said picking up the book and tossing it into her open trunk.

"You don't mind if I sit in here do you? Everywhere else is full."

"No…no it's okay, you can sit in here." Serenity said smiling happily at him.

"Thank you." He said sitting next to her. "My name is Harry by the way, Harry Potter."

"I'm Serenity Snape." She said shaking his hand.

"Cool, my dad knows your dad." Harry said sitting on the bench across from her.

"Oh, he never mentioned a Potter before."

"I don't think he would, they weren't really friends."

"Oh," Serenity said looking down, "but we can be friends right?"

"Yeah, don't worry! My dad lies all the time and I can tell he was lying about you too, you are really nice!"

Serenity blushed slightly. "Thanks you are really nice to, maybe we will be able to hang out at Hogwarts."

"Yeah!" Harry said nodding enthusiastically.

"So," Serenity said trying to start another conversation, "what house do you want to be sorted into?"

"Well, I really don't care but my dad wants me to be in Gryfindor. What about your dad, what house does he want you to be in?" Harry asked seeing her twirl her hair in her fingers.

"Dad didn't really say what house he wanted me to go into; he said he would be proud either way."

"What house do you want to be in?"

"I don't really care; I'm caught between two houses seeing as my mum was in Gryfindor and dad had been in Slytherin."

Harry nodded in agreement. "My mum was in Ravenclaw, I wonder if your dad knew her too."

"What is her name?"

"Pamela Potter." Harry said in a dreamy voice. "She died when I was a baby."

"I'm sorry, my mum died when I was a baby too."

Harry nodded once more and sighed. "It looks like we have a lot in common."

"Yeah, go figure." Serenity said looking out the window for a brief moment.

As the minutes went by Serenity still found that she was having a mental battle in her mind. What house…Slytherin or Gryfindor…Slytherin or Gryfindor. Okay, she would do a list of pros and cons to being in Gryfindor. A pro would be she would be in the house her mother was sorted into. A con to that would be her dad would probably be very disappointed. Serenity didn't want her father to be disappointed with her, all she wanted is his acceptance and she wouldn't get that being a Gryfindor. What was another pro to being in Gryfindor-ah- she would be with Harry because there was no doubt in her mind that Harry was going to be sorted into any other house but the one of bravery. A con would be that Snape would hate her just as she did Harry's dad and there was no way Serenity would allow that to happen!

What was she to do?

"Serenity, are you okay?" Harry asked shaking her shoulder gently.

"Huh…oh, yeah I'm fine."

"You sure, you were staring out of that window for like an hour."

Serenity turned bright red and looked away towards Harry. "I didn't notice." She said stretching slightly.

"Well you sure did keep your self busy. You should probably go and put our robes on; we'll probably be at the school soon."

Serenity looked and saw that Harry really was in his robes already! Wow, when she zones out she really must lose touch with all reality.

"Where should I go to get changed?"

"Well there's a bathroom down that way but I'd go to the bathroom in the dining cart…no one's down there."

"Okay, wait for me to come back?" she asked grabbing her robes from her trunk.

"Sure." Harry said smiling.

Harry was almost right; there were no students in the dining car, just teachers.

"I hate you so much right now Potter." She grumbled about to leave and go to the other bathroom.

"Serenity?"

"Uh…hi dad?" she said looking at her feet deeply embarrassed.

"What are you doing in here? The dining car is closed now to all students."

"Oh, I knew that," Serenity lied, "uh what are you doing here, didn't you say that teachers don't take the train?"

"We don't usually but Albus insisted the teachers have their before school meeting in the train and you know how your grandfather is."

"Regrettably I do." Serenity grumbled so low her father missed it.

"You still refrained to answer my last question, what are you doing here?"

Serenity cocked her one eyebrow and held up her robes.

"Who told you to come in here?" Severus asked agitated.

"Harry-

-Potter" Snape finished.

"Yeah, he said that it would be quicker."

Severus sneered, "Did he also mention it was against the rules?"

"Rules? Why in Merlin's Beard would they need a set of rules on a train?" Serenity bit out.

"Watch your tone young lady." Severus warned.

"C'mon dad, let me get changed. The line out there has probably stretched all the way down here!"

"You are not allowed and I will not-"

"Fine then I'll bloody well get dressed in front of Harry-"

"Serenity Evans Snape, stop this insufferable attitude! We are not at Hogwarts yet and I am not afraid to punish you before hand."

Just as Serenity was about to argue back Dumbledore came over.

"Ah, Serenity!" he said happily. "It is so good to see you!"

"Hello papa Albus." She said somberly. "It is nice to see you too."

"Come in here to change have you? I can see why the line for the bathroom outside is atrocious; you might want to hurry before the train stops."

"Albus-"

"Hush Severus, I would have allowed any student to use the bathroom would they have come in. It is no more special then any other but the convenience is at her advantage. It is not as though you have not done it when you were younger. Go on Ms. Snape."

"Thanks papa Albus." Serenity said hurrying off in the other direction.

Dumbledore looked at Severus and saw that he was sending a very cold glare in his direction.

"Angry with me are you Severus?"

"Of course I am Albus! How could you undermine me like that!?" he spat.

"Because you were being completely unreasonable my boy. What was so hard about allowing her to come in and change? Was it because of the rule or because young Harry suggested it?"

Severus ignored the last comment; he was not in the mood to start an argument with the stubborn old fool tonight.

When Serenity came back out his frustration on Albus and anger towards her had gone away completely. She looked so much like her mother that he could have sworn that it was her coming out of the bathroom. All she needed was her green eyes and the Gryfindor Emblem.

"Well, I guess I'll see you papa Albus." He watched her kiss his cheek gratefully and wave bye to the fellow teachers.

"Good-bye Serenity." Severus said trying to hug her.

Serenity dodged him, if her father wanted to play teacher she would not stop him. "See you at school Professor Snape." She said walking out the door.

"Serenity." He stopped himself and collapsed in a chair sighed extremely frustrated. "The pleasures of parenthood." He grumbled.

When Serenity returned to her compartment she found that Harry was still there, but someone else was there as well.

"Um- who are you?" she asked eyeing the boy meanly.

When he turned around Serenity rolled her eyes. Of course it would be Icary, great that was all she needed right now. His annoying arse would surely drive her mad.

"Icary, what do you want?"

"I just wanted to meet your new boy friend." The venom in his voice was unmistakable, but Serenity could have cared less if he didn't like Harry. The point was she liked Harry and it was none of his business to argue.

"Well you've met him and if that's all you wanted you should probably go back to your compartment."

Icary could tell that was more of a command rather then a suggestion and he just smirked at that. "Your dad won't like-"

"And you confused me for someone who actually gives a damn about what my father likes and dislikes," she paused thinking about that sentence, "when it comes to boy's anyway." She grumbled more to herself then Icary.

"Whatever." He said meanly and left.

"Sorry about that Harry." She sighed sitting next to him.

Harry smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry about it…and your dad doesn't like me." He said succeeding in making his new friend giggle.

The train had pulled to a stop and Serenity and Harry got out to go to the boats. Serenity hated the boats, but that was only because she wasn't the best at swimming, she only preferred getting wet when it was in the shower. Thank fully when they got to shore she was able to get out dry, another boy was not so lucky.

"Well here we go." Harry said smiling.

"Yeah, here we go." Serenity said trying her hardest to grin as well.

Here's the next chapter my peeps...you had to know that Harry and James would be incorporated some how...it gets juicer as the book goes on.
