Chapter 2: The Sorting
Weeks went past quickly and before anyone knew, it was time for everyone to go to Hogwarts, the Potter, Weasley and Longbottom family were standing on platform 9 ¾. Everyone was saying goodbye to each other. Suddenly Kieran busted into tears. Harry knelt down to his height.
"What's wrong Kieran?"
"What if I'm not in Gryffindor? What if I disappoint you and mum?"
"You won't"
"Yes I will, I always disappoint you two"
"You're my son; I will always love you no matter what happens in the future. And you don't disappoint me at all."
"I'm gonna miss you dad"
"And I'm going to miss you two, just like everyone else; this is the first time you and Zack are going away. It will always feel weird without you two" Kieran smiled at his father and hugged him one more time before going onto the train which would take them to Hogwarts.
"And remember to write to us every day"
"Mum, I will be fine and how about every week?" Said Laura to her mother
"She's right, like always. She'll be fine. We both survived Hogwarts. Plus she has Zack, Kieran and Charlotte there." Said Ron, agreeing with his daughter
"I know"
"Plus I'll write to you both every week. I'll tell you everything. I promise mum." Smiled Laura at Hermione, Hermione pulled her in for a hug.
"I'm going to miss you so much; you will have no idea how painful it is to see your little girl go t Hogwarts."
"Mum, for the last time I'll be fine"
"I know you will be" Said Hermione, letting go of her.
"Come here sweetie" Said Ron, Laura walked over to her father and smiled up at him
"Yes Dad"
"Please take care of yourself"
"I will"
"And don't get into trouble"
"I won't"
"You say that now, but when you get there...you will regret saying that"
"What do you mean by that dad?" Asked Laura
"You'll find out when you get there...now go and have an amazing time"
"Dad, from the stories you and mum have told me, I think I will do" Laura hugged her father goodbye and went to meet Charlotte who was saying goodbye to her parents.
Meanwhile, when Laura was talking to her parents.
"Now be good" Said Neville
"I will daddy" Smiled Charlotte
"Remember to write to us now and again"
"Will every week do dad?" Asked Charlotte, looking at her father
"I think that will do fine" Charlotte hugged her father goodbye
"Have you got your wand?" Asked Luna
"Yes, it's right here" Answered Charlotte getting it out of her sleeve
"Don't lose it"
"I won't I promise"
"And do well in all of your subjects" Said Neville
"Dad...I'll be fine. It's Hogwarts what could possibly go wrong?" Smiled Charlotte but that didn't stop her father from crying "Dad, please don't cry"
"I'm not"
"Of course you aren't honey"
"Dad, I'll be fine. I promise, now I really need to go, look Laura waiting for me"
"Okay, just be good and please don't get into trouble there."
"Dad, I won't. I'll be fine" Said Charlotte before hugging her parent's goodbye and leaving with Laura to the train.
Harry, Ginny, Ron and Hermione walked over to them.
"Is he crying?" Asked Ron
"Yes" Answered Luna
"It'll be fine...they won't get into trouble" Said Harry
"These are our kids were talking about" Replied Ginny
"Oh yeah...they're going to get into trouble aren't they?" Asked Harry
"Yeah" Answered Luna
"I miss them already" Cried Neville
"Oh look who it is" Said a voice; they whipped around and saw a blonde haired man with a woman who had dark hair and a little eleven year old girl who had black hair.
"Malfoy" Said Ron
"Hello Weasley" Said Draco Malfoy at Ron; he looked at Hermione "I see you married Granger in the end"
"It's Weasley now and yes he did" Glared Hermione
"Guys...we're adults we don't need to be acting like this anymore" Said Luna
"I guess your right" Muttered Draco and Ron
"And who's this?" Asked Neville, wiping away his tears, looking at the woman next to Draco.
"Everyone I'd like you to meet my wife Astoria and my daughter Emily Malfoy. She's going to Hogwarts this year. I'm guess your children are too?" Said Draco
"In a matter of fact, yes they are" Replied Ginny
"Great, I have to listen to your children whining all the time." Said Emily
"Great another Malfoy" Smirked Ron
"Ron" Said Hermione, slapping Ron's arm
"Ouch!" Shouted Ron
"Bye Mother...Bye Father" Said Emily, grabbing her stuff and taking it with her onto the train
"Bye Emily, take care of yourself" Smiled Astoria
"I will, goodbye father" Said Emily before walking off
"I don't think your daughter likes you" Said Ron
"Oh shut up Weasley"
Meanwhile with Charlotte and Laura, they were walking along all the compartment, looking for their friends Kieran and Zack who had got onto the train before them.
"I can't believe we're actually going to Hogwarts, it's like my dreams are finally coming true" Smiled Laura who clapped her hands together with excitement
"I know what you mean, finally we are growing up...you don't have to put up with your dad calling you his little angel" Said Charlotte, she looked over at Laura. "Did you see my father cry back there?"
"Yeah, Uncle Neville crying is scary" Charlotte nodded in agreement
"Hey Guys" Said Zack who saw them coming towards them
"Hey Zack" Said Charlotte
"Your dad's still crying" he replied
"WHAT?" Asked Charlotte, confused
"We got bored waiting for you two, so we waited her for you guys and we saw you still talking to your mum and dad and we've been watching ever since" Said Kieran, the four of them walked over to the window and see the adults talking.
"Who are they?" Asked Zack, the four of them watched as a blonde haired man approach their parents with a woman who had dark hair and a girl who seemed to be the same age as them, the girl had black hair, she said something and then Ron said something back to her.
"I wonder what that was about." Said Laura
"I wonder who she is" Said Charlotte
"I've never seen her before" Muttered Zack, the girl suddenly disappeared and then the train started moving, the four of them waved goodbye to their parents who had noticed them watched them and started waving back at them and then Neville started crying again.
"My poor dad" Said Charlotte, shaking her head at him.
"Um...excuse me...but can I sit in her with you guys. Everywhere is full" they turned to the door to see the same girl who had been talking to Laura's father. They all nodded not very sure about what they should say to her.
"Thank You" She started sitting down next to Kieran, who was sat next to Zack "My name's Emily Malfoy by the way." She smiled
"I've heard of that name before" Said Charlotte
"Well my father is Draco Malfoy"
"Oh...I think my mother and father said they went to school with someone with that name"
"Oh...and you guys are?" Asked Emily
"Well I'm Kieran Potter" Said Kieran
"Don't you have a twin?" Asked Emily
"Yeah that's me" Said Zack, waving his hand in the air "I'm Zack"
"But you don't look like twins, Kieran is so tall and you're not tall..."
"We're twins but we're not identical"
"Oh" Said Emily
"I'm Laura Weasley"
"But you like the lady I was just talking to outside"
"My mother's Hermione Weasley"
"Oh...I see now...you look just like your mother, it's like your her twin"
"I've been told that a lot...trust me I'm not"
"And I'm Charlotte Longbottom"
"Was your father crying outside?" Asked Emily
"Sadly Yes"
"I feel so sorry for you"
"We all feel so for me...my dad, well he's a little weird"
"So you guys excited to go to Hogwarts?"
"Are you kidding?" Asked Laura "We've been waiting for this day our whole lives"
The five of them sounded like they were getting along so well that the already sounded like they were best friends. But little did they known that they parents hated each other when they were the same age. The train arrived at Hogwarts about seven o'clock, everyone was very hungry but not as hungry as Zack was.
"FIRST YEARS THIS WAY!" Shouted a voice
"I guess we have to go that way" Said Laura, who was walking ahead with Charlotte.
"So Hungry" Muttered Zack to himself
Soon they all arrived at the castle, they looked at everything with amazement, they stood along the castle stairs waiting to go into the grand hall where they would be sorted and eat there dinner before the first night at Hogwarts.
"It's so beautiful here" Whispered Charlotte
"No wonder mum loved it here" Said Laura
"Dad always called it home...I can see why" Smiled Kieran at his brother Zack.
"I know...I can see it too" Said Zack. Then an old woman came forward and stood in front of them.
"Hello my name is Professor McGonagall. I am the Headmistress of this school. Now it is time for your sorting, please follow me children." She said before walking off into the grand hall with everyone following her. There they saw a grey hat, sat on top of a chair.
"God I'm scared" Said Kieran to Charlotte who he was walking next to
"I know I'm scared too. What if we're not all in the same house" Said Charlotte, staring at the hat scared.
"Emily Malfoy" Emily walked up and sat on the chair, the hat was placed onto her head, it started talking to her, Emily jumped when it started talking.
"Slytherin!" Emily jumped off the chair when the hat was taken off of her head and ran over to the table.
"Collin Morgan" The boy walked up to the hat, sat down.
"Gryffindor"
"Laura Weasley" Laura walked up to the hat scared, just like every other new student who was waiting to be sorted into the right house.
"Ravenclaw"
"Jacob Flats"
"Hufflepuff"
"Charlotte Longbottom" Charlotte slowly walked up to the chair and sat down and looked at Kieran and Zack and whispered "Good Luck" and smiled at them
"Ravenclaw" She smiled and ran over and sat with Laura
"Kieran Potter" Kieran walked up to the chair
"Slytherin" Kieran looked at Zack, confused about everything but went to sit with Emily who smiled at him.
"Zack Potter"
"Gryffindor"
"Tom Felton"
"Slytherin"
"Kevin Jackson"
"Ravenclaw"
"Josh Hutcherson"
"Slytherin"
"Rupert Grint"
"Gryffindor"
"Jess Johnson"
"Ravenclaw"
"Hailey Swift"
"Gryffindor"
Names were called and houses were called, finally everyone was called. Everyone was sat down and talking to people in their houses. Everyone looked at the headmistress when there was a tap against the glass.
"Now that everyone has been sorted into their house, I want everyone to enjoy the meal" Smiled Professor McGonagall
"So you guys are?" Asked a girl
"I'm Laura Weasley and this is Charlotte Longbottom"
"Hi I'm Lily Thomas"
"Cool" Said Charlotte, she looked over to the Gryffindor table to see Zack talking to some guy, she looked over at the Slytherin table to see Kieran sat there, looking bored.
"What is it?" Asked Laura
"It's Kieran...I don't think he is happy being in Slytherin"
"Why?"
"He looks bored, plus no one is talking to him"
"I'm sure he will be fine, he'll make some friends. You know what Kieran's like"
"Yeah, I guess you're right. I mean who could not love Kieran" Smiled Charlotte
Meanwhile with Kieran, he just sat there very bored and noticed Charlotte and Laura looking at him, he was about to smile at them when they looked away and started talking to a guy on their table. He looked over at his brother to see him talking to a couple of people; he was laughing, smiling and having fun.
"Replaced me already"
"Hey...are you okay?" Asked Emily
"Yeah, I'm fine" Said Kieran, faking a smile, he looked back over at his family and friends and wished he was sitting with them. He didn't have any idea why he was actual in Slytherin, he felt like he didn't belong in that house at all.
Meanwhile with the teachers, watching all the new students.
"So Potter's, Weasley's, Granger's, Malfoy's, Longbottom and Lovegood's children are here. What do you think they will do?" Asked Madam Pomfrey
"I think we will have our next lot of troublemakers" Answered Professor McGonagall
"I think you are right about that" Smiled Madam Pomfrey.
