Chapter 1: New at Hogwarts Academy

Harry stares at the school in aw, he is finally here at Hogwarts, the one place that he had been dreaming of since hearing stories about it from his parents and uncles. Hogwarts Academy has been mentioned a lot in his household; what with how good the sports department is in his father and uncle's case or in his mother how good the education department is. And he is here as he walks through the hall towards the principal office he is noticing how there are so many cliques. Which is just great for him, he has always managed to find high school where there weren't cliques that run the student body of the school in a tight hold. Seeing that he is in front of the door he opened it up but quickly moved away as he noticed that someone was walking out.

Stepping aside he smiled at the person when they nodded their heads in thanks. Continuing on heading towards the office he heard the ending of a conversation that is being said between the girl and the principal. Stepping once again aside for the girl to leave after being inside the office he sat down and waited for the principal to start speaking.

As the principal finished typing her story that she was writing she closed down the laptop and looked up at the new student. Getting up she headed towards the drawer that held the files of multiple student both new and old students. Flipping the pages of the flie she raised an eyebrow at the multiple list of different schools the boy has been in. " Military kid ?" she asked him.

"Huh, Oh no, my father is a lawyer so we tend to move a lot whenever he is needed by one of the law firms." replied Harry.

Principal McGonagall muttered underneath her breath as she realized that this boy is James Potter's son who in all honesty hopes that he has his mother's personality. "Well, you are to meet your tour guide Mr. Seamus Finnigan." Handing him his schedule while sitting back down in her chair and opening up her laptop to continue writing her story. "Go On."

Harry's eyes widened as he quickly got up from his chair and went out into the hallway. Stepping into the hallway he was met with someone that could only be Seamus Finnigan. Well, he hoped it was him. "Seamus Finnigan ?"

Seamus turned towards him as he realized that this was indeed Harry. "Yup, follow me."

Harry nodded as they continued to walk down the hallway that is leading towards the door outside. It was quiet until Seamus started to talk.

"Okay, hear what you need to know about this place." Seamus stated as he and Harry continued to walk on. "This school is based on social status and cliques." pausing as if to get Harry to understand to which he nodded, gathering that thought from just what he saw out front. "Good, so you understand. That's great, rule number one: don't talk to anyone unless they reach out to you first."

Harry raises an eyebrow at that rule, Seamus who looks at him noticing the first rule and sighs. As they turned around the hallway Seamus looked at the Soccer team tilting his head towards them he uttered. "Watch what I'm about to do Harry and you will understand why there is a rule like that."

Walking towards one of the Soccer players, he spoke a simple word. "Hey." Oliver Wood turned towards him with a raised eyebrow. "Drop Dead." Seamus smiled weekly and nodded and walked back towards Harry who was wide-eyed in shock. "Told ya."

"Now, can I continue ?" said Seamus as they resumed walking out the door onto the outside courtyard. "Over there, you have your jocks and cheerleaders." pointing at the table in the far right. "Over at that corner you have the geeks and the band/choir kids." pointing at the far left corner of the courtyard.

Harry nodded so far getting the idea; Seamus smiled glad that the new kid is getting it so far. "By the coffee stand are the rich kids and they talk about everything from coffee to cell phones. Etc." and last but not least you have your drama kids, the people who think they are black." pointing at a table where a bunch of white people with braids are making out with one another. "And last but not least you have your floaters, those who have the power to float from one group to another and not get criticized."

Harry nods his head as he thinks about the lesson that he is getting from Seamus until they bump into a beautiful redhead and her blonde friend. "Woah, who is she ?" Seamus followed his finger until spotting Ginny Weasley, shaking his head. " I wouldn't go after her." Harry raises an eyebrow wondering why. Noticing his look Seamus sighs again. " It's because she has overprotective brothers even though she can protect herself and also there's a rule in the Weasley household that neither of the kids could date until Ron does."

"And who is Ron ?" asked Harry.

Seamus shook his head at him. "Ron Weasley, a floater, surprisingly no one messed with him after his last date with someone which had turned out to be a prank." Pointing at a tall muscle boy sitting near a bunch of redheads who Harry amused are his siblings. "And, I'm going to ask out Ginny Weasley."

Seamus snorted."Good Luck with that." and Harry grinned as they leave the courtyard so that Harry could get to his next class.
