Roxanne Weasley – 2018
There was a lot of pressure on Roxanne. None of it was intentional of course but as she stood in the line and waited for the sorting she couldn't help think of all the disappointed faces of her family she would see if she was sorted into Gryffindor. There was one face that she couldn't bear upsetting, her older brother Fred. He had been just as excited as Roxanne for her first year at Hogwarts. All he could talk about was Gryffindor, and how Roxanne would fit right in there.
She looked over at the Gryffindor table and saw Fred grinning at her, showing her a thumbs up for support. Roxanne swallowed, she had never been this nervous before. Suddenly a piece of parchment appeared at her feet, she looked up and saw Fred miming 'Read It' and so she did just that. It read Roxy, can't wait for you to be in Gryffindor, the halls better look out because between you and Lucy and me and the boys a lot of trouble is going to be caused! See you at the table sis! Love you x Roxanne thought she was going to be sick. As she tried to calm her turning stomach Lucy was called to be sorted. Almost as soon as the hat touched her head she was pronounced a Gryffindor. Roxanne was so caught up in the celebrations at the Gryffindor table she almost missed her name.
'Weasley, Roxanne'
The hall seemed deadly quiet; all she could hear were the echoes of her footsteps as she wandered up to the stool. Then all of a sudden a voice broke the silence;
'Come on Roxanne, we're waiting for you at Gryffindor!'
Roxanne looked over to see Fred standing on his seat cheering for her. Then all of the sudden the whole of her family started cheering, and no one was quite aware of how much noise the Potter Weasley Clan could make. Managing a small smile at her family, the hat was slipped on her head.
Now, Miss Weasley would you mind telling me why on earth you are so nervous?
Well, the same reason as everyone else's head you've sat on I suppose.
Which would be?
What if I'm not in the house I want to be? What will my family say?
I'm sure they would be proud of you no matter what.
Well yes, but I would be disappointed.
Well Miss Weasley you have no reason to be disappointed.
I don't?
No, you are just like your cousin Lucy.
How so?
A true fit for Gryffindor! You're brave, courageous, determined and unlike your brother, you seem to have a clear divide between wrong and right.
So you're putting me in Gryffindor?
Of course! No offence, but you simply do not fit anywhere else. 'GRYFFINDOR'
Now, what was all that worrying about? Go join your family!
And so Roxanne whipped the hat off and ran straight to the Gryffindor table where she eagerly met her brother's arms. After a brief hug and a 'Welcome to Gryffindor sis, knew you could do it' she was passed around her family, as every single one of her cousins was when they first joined Gryffindor. As she sat down between her brother and best friend she ate heartily whilst planning her very first prank as a student of the scarlet and gold house wondering, just as the sorting hat had said, what was all that worrying about?
Please tell me what you think! :)
