Hogwarts 1991

The train trip was fairly uneventful, a girl named Hermione came by to ask if they had seen her friend's toad, they had asked if they should help her search, but she had declined their offer. Soon they arrived at Hogsmeade station where they would be sailing to the school grounds. Harry greeted his uncle Hagrid to the surprise of the other students.

Before long they were entering Hogwarts and being lead to a room right by the great hall where they had to await sorting. Ron was telling Harry about what his brothers had told him about the sorting when someone spoke behind them, "Red hair and hand me down robes, must be a Weasley." Ron stopped talking and turned towards the speaker.

Harry turned around too and saw that it was the bond boy from the train. "Bratty attitude and blond hair, the death eater kid then." Other students had turned towards the commotion too and where now whispering amongst themselves. Ron had called the blond boy a death eater kid. His dad had told him about the death eaters. "What was it now… Drew? Or was it Drogo?"

Harry looked at the boy and saw that Ron's words had hurt him. The boy held himself together, but Harry recognised those eyes. "Dray?" The name came out as whisper, but the blond boy had heard as was now starring at Harry is shock.

"Dray? I Guess it could be Dray," Ron continued his taunting not catching on to was happening.

The boy, Draco, ignored him in favour of a stuttered response, "H-Harry?" He looked hopeful and suddenly Harry could see the boy he had known two years ago, even with the sleek hair and nicely pressed clothes.

Finally catching on a confused, "wait do you two know each other?" was heard from Ron.

Harry responded with a weak nod not taking his eyes of Draco before also replying with a muttered, "yeah we were best friends, we grew up together."

Draco stepped closer to Harry and the excitement Harry was used to seeing in the boy had returned full on. "You're here too. I had hoped that you were also a wizard so that we would meet again, but I hadn't actually thought it would be true and that we would actual go to the same school." Draco was practically jumping with excitement, which was a big difference from to earlier stoic cocky boy who had verbally challenged Ron.

Before anyone could say anything more the door to the great hall had opened and silence fell. "I hope you're all behaving?" Aunty Minnie said with a raised eyebrow before continuing with the standard welcome and explanation as to how the sorting would take place. Before long they were heading in one by one to be sorted. Draco and Harry managed to stand besides each other in the queue aunty Minnie had instructed them into.

Draco's eyes sparkled, "I am so excited that we'll be going to school together, I was planning on searching for you once I was old enough, that was of course before I found that we were going to Hogwarts together."

Harry like seeing Draco like this again, it was a lot better than the cold boy he had seen earlier, "I was planning on having my dad help find your address, so I could at least write to you," Harry responded equally exited at seeing his old friend.

"Wow you have a dad now? That's so cool" Draco's exited smile turned into a frown, "I just have my crazy aunt." Before Harry could respond Draco was called up for sorting.

AN: So… I should have written my lit analysis, but then I wrote this instead.

I really don't know which house to place them in. Draco's change from the original with growing up at an orphanage and everything else so I don't know if he'd still be a Slytherin or if should place him in another house. The same goes for Harry who now hasn't live with the Dursleys and even got adopted by Sev, I could place him in any house.
