Draco knew exactly which house he was going into, there was no question. He was going into Slytherin; his parents, his aunts and uncles, his entire family had been sorted into Slytherin and he wasn't going to be any different. Draco also knew that his friends were getting sorted into Slytherin as well. Asterion had the same circumstance, his whole family had even sorted into Slytherin well except his uncle Sirius Black who was in prison but no one spoke of him. It was Dimitrios that worried him, even though Metri's family were all Slytherins Metri preferred to read rather then participate in the trouble that Draco and Asterion like to get into. Draco walked with his best friends, following the giant oaf as he lead them up a grand staircase to a women with pinned up hair, rectangular glasses and a very stern looking face.
"The firs' yers ma'am" The half-giant said graciously to the women before he waddled off, patting a small boy with black hair and glasses on the back. This must be the Harry that the oaf had talked to earlier. That's when Draco saw it, as the boy's bangs moved out of his face, there laying on his forehead was a lightening shaped scar that was said to lay of the boy-who-lived's face.
"That must be Harry Potter, look at the scar." Draco whispered to Asterion and Metri after the stern looking omen had lead them into a small room and told them all that she was Professor McGonagall and that she would be back to sort them in a moment. Both of the boys looked over at the mysterious boy and witnessed the scar as well and nodded toward Draco. Draco started walking toward the boy with his friends trailing on either side of him. "So are you the famous Harry Potter?" Draco asked with his nose to the air. The boy shyly nodded at Draco. "Well I am Malfoy, Draco Malfoy and these are my friends Asterion Black and Dimitrios Lestrange." He said motioning to his friends. A red-haired boy slouching next to Harry snickered at Draco. "Think my name is funny do you? Well, no need to ask yours." Draco sneered looking at the boy up and down.
"Red hair freckles and a hand me down robe, you must be a Weasely." Asterion finished for Draco, sneering at the boy as well. The boy flushed red and looked down.
"You will soon find out Potter that some Wizarding families are better than others. We can help you there." Dimitrios said, holding out his hand for Harry to shake.
"I think I will do just fine." Harry said not even looking at Dimitrios' hand. All the pure-bloods and respectably raised students standing around them all gasped. You didn't disrespect a pure-blood of a noble family but not shaking their hand, whether you agree with them or not. All three of the boys glared at Harry Potter.
"You are going to regret that Potter." Dimitrios said earnestly, he knew his best friends could hold a grudge and once you were on their bad said there was little you could do to amend things. After that Professor McGonagall came back in and pursed her lips at the three young hairs instantly recognizing them.
"It is time, follow after me and please on your best behavior." She said before leading them into a great hall with four large tables gracing the floor and a longer table sitting at the head for the teachers. The boys recognized some of the other child of "dark" families sitting at the table they all wanted to be a part of. They walked to the front of the hall with the other students. The heard the annoying voice of the mud-blood from earlier explain the ceiling to another girl and Draco rolled his eyes at his friends of course they had already Hogwarts: a History many times and knew that she was reciting what she had read.
"Alright I will call your name and you will come up and put this hat on you head and then the hat will sort you." Professor McGonagall said while picking up a scroll. As he read the first name the boys all shared an encouraging look not caring where the first girl had gone. "Black, Asterion." The professor called out and whispers broke out from some of the older students, the Blacks where already a powerful and feared family before Sirius had gone to Azkaban but after that they were even more feared. Asterion strutted up to the hat and gracefully sat down and let McGonagall put the hat on his head, it was only there for a few seconds before it boomed out "Slytherin". Asterion turned his head slightly and smiled at his friends before walking toward the Slytherin table as his tie changed from black to silver and green and the Slytherin crest appeared on the front of his cloak. Draco and Dimitrios stood next to each other waiting for Dimitrios' name to be called next, clapping lightly when Crabbe, Goyle and Daphne Greengrass where all sorted with Asterion in Slytherin. "Lestrange, Dimitrios." Professor McGonagall called out and Dimitrios walked up the hat with ease but Draco could tell that he was nervous. That hand seemed to stay on his head a bit longer than most of the others. Finally after what seemed to be five minutes the hat called out "Slytherin" and Metri strolled over next to Asterion and gracefully sat down. Now Draco just had to patiently wait his own turn. Soon after "Longbottom, Neville" was called and he was sorted into Gryffindor, which Draco snickered at, "Malfoy, Draconius" was called and Draco swaggered up to the hat and it barely touched his perfectly groomed hair before calling out "Slytherin". Draco let a small smirk grace his face while he strutted over to his friends feeling proud that he had done something that would appease his father.
The boys sat quite bored waiting for the sorting to be over, only reacting slightly when someone was sorted and when the "oh so famous" Harry Potter was sorted into Gryffindork to which they all glared at the black haired boy.
A/N: I apologize that this chapter is a bit short I wanted to the sorting to be the only thing that was in this chapter. Now sense I wasn't given any opinions on how they wished me to time this I have decided that I will do a few chapters of each year, the more exciting years will get more chapters and I can already tell you guys that this story will have some boy/boy action so if you don't like that then I am going to have to ask you to leave. So any thoughts, questions, recommendations from anyone? I don't know what you guys need unless you tell me.
Disclaimer: Anything that even sounds familiar then guess what, it probably isn't mine. Actually at the moment only the lovely Mrs. Black, Asterion and Dimitrios are mine. The rest belongs to my Queen and her companies and everyone else gets to say that they own the amazing world of Harry Potter.
Sincerely,
Your Secret
