Chapter 4
"Slytherin!" The sorting hat shouted out to the entire school before Draco smirked as he knew for certain he would carry on the tradition of the Malfoy family house name in Hogwarts. He was then greeted by many fellow slytherin students as he sat down who introduced himself and giving high fives to the boys and handshakes to the girls of his year and the second year students that were around him. "Save a seat next to me for Hermionie, she's next, she is my best friend" Draco told the students nearby on the table as they nodded with a hopeful look on their faces. Draco looked to Hermionie who was mounting the stool ready to see what house she was going into and Draco gave her a quick wink and gestured the space next to him with anticipation.
"Gryffindor!" The sorting hat shouted and a roar of Gryffindor students got louder and louder, she looked immediately to Draco who looked like someone had punched him in the face and he looked down at his feet, trying not to look up to Hermionie who was now being seated at the Gryffindor table next to three gingers who looked a little bit like Ron who she had met earlier before formally introducing herself an hugging the girls who were happy to have her with them and handshaking the boys who looked bored of the sorting ceremony already after 4 people had been chosen out of about 40.
A wave of silence scattered the hall as the famous Harry Potter took to the stool with a terrified look on his face. "Gryffindor! Congratulations!" All of the table leapt up and started shaking Harry's hand welcoming him and looking around at the other houses who seemed to have a disappointed look on their faces, including the Slytherin table who wanted the undefeatable boy on their house team.
After the ceremony was over, Hermionie tried to find Draco to try work out what had happened and why she wasn't put into Slytherin. Draco noticed her but turned his back to her and Hermionie took the hint and walked back to the huddle of first year Gryffindor students who were about to be taken to the common room and dorms for the first time. Hermionie looked back to Draco who was staring at her in a way he seemed betrayed.
As the months passed, Draco never spoke to Hermionie and only gave her hackey looks because of his newly found friends of the slytherin house who hated Gryffindor's with every ounce of hate they had. Not giving any kind of respect to any of them, including Hermionie. Hermionie became friends with Harry and Ron over the months and were about to defeat Snape who turned out to be Professor Quirrell who turned out to be The dark lord who was trying to get a stone of some kind to return to power.
