A/N: Thanks for all the great reviews! Time for a new chapter of Unexpected! Hope you like it!


Scorpius woke up early the next day. He had had a strange dream. He couldn't really remember it only that it had this girl with brown hair, Al, and Rose in it…

Wait! Al and Rose! It all came flooding back. He had been sorted into Ravenclaw, and they had not. How were they going to make this friendship work when they were all in different houses?

Suddenly he had a brainstorm. He wasn't in Ravenclaw for nothing. But he had to ask someone if it was okay. But who? No one in his house would talk to him so he decided to go to the library. Maybe someone there could help.

When he walked into the library, he was immediately impressed by the sheer size of it. There were rows and rows of books. It was a Ravenclaw's paradise. There was a woman behind one of the counters. Maybe she was the librarian. He walked over to her.

"Can I help you with something, young man?" She said. Scorpius read the nameplate. It said 'Professor Star Shine'."

"Um, yes Professor Shine?" He said tentatively. "Um, I was wondering if you had to eat in the Great Hall."

"Why would you want to know that, um …?"

"It's Scorpius."

"Ah, you're that Malfoy boy the whole school is atwitter about. Are your housemates not treating you right? Is that why you don't want to eat with them?"

"Yes, but that's not why I'm asking. You see I'm friends with Rose Weasley and Albus Potter and they're in different houses."

"Ah, I see. Well to answer your question, no. It is entirely allowed for you to eat somewhere else. However, you must get the food from the great hall."

"Thank you so much, Professor Shine."

"Please, call me Star. I'm really too young to be called by my last name." She laughed a-bit. "I'm only twenty five."

"Wow. You must be the youngest professor here. What do you teach?"

"I sense a curious young mind. To answer your question, I'm the astronomy teacher, as well as the librarian."

"I don't take Astronomy till third year."

"Oh well. My young friend, you can always find me here. You should go. Tell your friends of your plan."

"Thanks, again." He called as he ran off to find Al and Rose.


As luck would have it, he found them waiting at the bottom of the staircase to the entrance hall.

"Finally, you're here! What took you so long, Scorp?" Rose complained.

"I was finding out a way we can all eat together."

"But that's impossible. We're in different houses. We can't sit at the same house table." Rose protested.

"No one said we had to sit at the house tables."

"I like how you think, Scorp." Al gave him a high five.

"Someone just has to get the food." He looked at Al.

"Don't look at me, my house hates me."

"Same here. Rose?"

"Fine! What do you want?"

"I'll have milk, a bagel, and an apple. Oh, and cereal!" Scorp said.

"Same here." Al agreed.

"Be back in a minute." She called walking into the Great Hall.

They talked, joked, and laughed, all while ignoring the glances everyone gave them. All too soon, the bell rang, signaling the start of class.

"I got to go. What class do you have?" Rose asked.

"Transfiguration." Scorpius answered.

"Me too! What about you Al?"

"I got potions." Al said dejectedly.


They went off to their classes. Halfway to Potions he realized that if Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff had transfiguration together, then that left Gryffindor in potions with him. And that meant Elena Rincloff would be there! He ran the rest of the way. Stiff he was one of the last people there and there were only a few seats open. But one of them was next to Elena!

He grabbed it and tried to look like he had just run the whole way here. "Hi I'm Al. What's your name?"

She giggled. "I know who you are. And I think you know who I am too. But just to be sure, I'm Elena Rincloff."

"Yeah, I did know. I heard it at the Sorting last night. Guess I'm not much of a Slytherin, am I?"

"What do you mean?"

"Slytherin's are supposed to be sneaky."

"Oh, you're sneaky. But I'm just smart."

"Last I checked, you weren't in Ravenclaw, You were in Gryffindor."

"And Gryffindors can't be smart? Wait, don't answer that. So how's it going?"

"How's what going?"

"Being a Potter in Slytherin?"

"Oh, that. Well no one's tried to kill me yet so I consider it a success."

"No, seriously."

"Well, I'm being seriously ignored. How about you? Everyone said you'd be in Slytherin? How's Gryffindor working?"

"Well, it's going about the same as you. Everyone's ignoring me. But I think my dad's okay with it. He said he'd be fine with any house as long as it wasn't Hufflepuff."

"Hey, my cousin's in Hufflepuff!"

"Oh yeah. Rose, right? I don't have a problem with 'Puffs though. Just my dad."

"You know Rose would love to meet you. Why don't you eat lunch with us?"

"But we can't sit at the same house tables."

"But you don't need to sit at the house tables. You can eat anywhere it turns out."

"Cool. I guess, I will then. Anything beats my housemates ignoring me all lunch."

Just then, Professor Sparrow, the Potions teacher and the head of Ravenclaw walked in. By all accounts, he was an intimidating man and silence fell fast.

"Turn to page five in your books and let us begin." He said as class began.

When it was over, Al turned to El and asked, "What's your next class?"

"Transfiguration. You?"

"Transfiguration."

And they set off to the next class.


Forty-five minutes later, El and Al were walking to the entrance hall.

"Wasn't it so cool how Professor Redding is an Animagus?"

"I almost freaked when I saw that fox turn into Rena Redding." El said.

"You know her?"

"My dad does. Didn't know she was and Animagus though."

"Oh look, there's Scorpius." Al pointed to the blond haired boy and waved. Scorpius smiled.

"Never thought you were going to get here. I already sent Rose in for the food. Who's your friend?"

"This is Elena Rincloff. Elena, this is Scorpius Malfoy." Al introduced them.

"I've heard of you. Everyone said you'd be in Slytherin."

"They said the same of you, Scorp."

"Ah, but at least I got into Ravenclaw."

"You two will get along great. Oh look there's Rose."

Rose came skipping over, carrying a basket.

"Hey, guys! Who's your friend?"

"Rose, this is Elena. Elena, this is my cousin Rose."

"Nice to meet you. It was getting boring hanging out with just these two."

"HEY!" Al and Scorpius shouted.

"Suck it up! Anyway, I hought that since it's so nice out today we could eat outside."

"Fine with me." Scorpius said. " Where did you get the basket?"

"I transfigured it from my textbook."

"You did that on you're second day? And you're not in Ravenclaw, why?" El said amazed.

"I see my mom do it all the time. And I'm to nice to be in Ravenclaw."

"I resent that!" Scorpius called.

And together the four walked out into the bright sunshine outside.
