Colin Creevey

"Creevey, Colin!"

A small boy with a broad grin and fair hair bounded down the hall. Using the word "excited" to describe him would be the understatement of the century. His eyes were positively wild with anticipation.

Goodness, the Sorting Hat thought, it's a terribly good thing his name isn't Zeevey...he can hardly wait four people...

Professor McGonagall carefully slid him onto Colin's head. He immediately feel far past his eyes. He heard gentle chuckles rippling through the halls as it covered the boy's entire head. The Hat entertained the thought that he looked rather like a lampshade.

I look nothing like a lampshade!

Oh, were you listening?

Oh my goodness! A talking hat! I've never met a talking hat before! How do you do Mr Hat? Huh? How do you do? Huh? A talking hat!!!

...Muggleborn, I presume.

Yup. My dad's a milkman, you know!

How interesting. Now, where do you care to go, er..

Colin Arnold Creevey. Arnold is my dad's name. Dad's a milkman, you know!

Yes, you told me...now, Colin Arnold—

Oh please, call me Colin! Arnold's my dad's name. He's a milkman, you know!

Really?

Yup!

Okay then, dear son of a milkman—

You don't have to call me that! My dad's a—

Milkman, so I've heard...anyhow..just to tell you, Gryffindor is where the ones with bravery goes—

Like Harry Potter!

Yes, exactly. You have heard of him?

Are you kidding me? I've heard of him so much, even my dad knows who he is! And he's a milkman, you know!

Yes, I KNOW! So, you admire Harry?

Yup! He's my hero. I admire him even more than I admire my dad, who is pretty admirable, if I do say so myself. He's a milkman, you know!
SO I HAVE HEARD. ANYWAYS. You want to be in Gryffindor, I presume?

Oh, yes, yes, yes. It's where Harry Potter was! My dad would be so proud. He's a milkman you know!
AUUUUUUUUGHHHHH!

"GRYFFINDOR!"
