Albus Potter: Year One
Disclaimer: I am not J.K Rowling
"Hi Neville!" Rose and Albus said.
"Hi Rosie, Albus!' he said. "But I think you should call me Proffeser Longbottom in school."
"Oh, right."
"Hello I'm Proffeser Longbottom." he said loudly as some snickered at the named and some whispered, "That was Harry Potter's friend and he destroyed the last horcrux!" "You will be sorted shortly. There are Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, and Slytherin. They all have good traits as well as bad. Now follow me."
As they entered the Great Hall, Rose said, "Mum told me all about this. The sealing is bewitched to look like the sky." When they were all in Neville brought out a three-legged stool with a battered old hat on top. Albus thought he was going insane because a few seconds later it started to sing. As soon as it finished the whole hall started cheering. Albus figured out this must have been the sorting hat that his older brother James told him about.

He had said earlier on the train trying to bother him, "You will love Hogwarts, Al, but be careful you will probably get in Slytherin. Actually you definitely will."
"NO! I won't, I won't! Plus, dad says you can choose your house!" Albus replied confidently.
"Yeah you tell him Albus!" Rose yelled. "How do you get sorted anyway?"
"Oh a talking hat chooses it. Got to go ickle' firsties." He replied in a tone that made Albus's fist clench.

Neville pulled out a long roll of parchment and yelled, "Adose, Thalia!" She was sorted into Ravenclaw. Aney, Phillip was sorted into Hufflepuff and Azen, Isabel was quickly sorted into Hufflepuff. The rest zipped by Crabbe, Howard, Maky, etc. Then it came Malfoy, Scorpious.
Albus could have sworn he heard someone say, "I bet you 21 sickles he's in Slytherin." It made Albus flinch. Scorpious gripped the rims of the hat. Finally it screamed… GRYFFINDOR!
Albus grinned at his friend as he grinned back. Then he heard Palam, Peter go up and he knew it was almost his turn.
"Potter, Albus!" The whole hall erupted in whispers and gasps. Albus slowly and cautiously walked up to the stool and placed it on his head. "Can you please put me in Gryffindor, please?" he thought remembering his conversation with his dad at Platform 9 and ¾. After a while it yelled to Albus's delight, "GRYFFINDOR!" James, Scorpious and his cousin Fred II cheered the loudest. Albus took off the hat and ran over to sit next to Scorpious. Soon they were talking and talking but the two Gryffindors got quiet when Rose got called up. She was only up there for a few seconds when it yelled Gryffindor. Rose grinned widely and sat right next to them.
"Welcome to another year of Hogwarts! I am Proffeser McGonagall the head mistress. I just have one rule. First of all the Forbidden Forest is banned to everyone unless whomever you're hosting detention with chooses to host it there. Thank You! Let the feast begin!"
Then out of nowhere platters of food and goblets of pumpkin juice sprung out. Albus piled steak, roasted buttery potatoes, roast beef, fried sausages and after a few minutes some jam doughnuts and rice pudding. He ate without a care in the world and in between took sips of pumpkin juice. Finally he started to feel a bit sick but still ate treacle tart. When the feast ended the Gryffindor prefects lead them to the Gryffindor Common Room. Albus, Scorpious, and Rose almost fell over laughing at the site of the fat lady's portrait. They walked through the portrait hole and followed Patrick Finnigan, the prefect who was showing the around. When it was their parting they waved to Rose and tried to run up the stairs. Albus fell straight on his bed and soon he was asleep.
