So I got this extension that changes (Y/N) to your name. It also happens when I write, I found a way to turn it off but I started this chapter before I knew how to turn it off, so if you see the name "El" just know I am referring to (Y/N). I did look over the chapter but not too thoroughly because I wanted to publish this quickly, so just know, just in case. The extension is InteractiveFics by the way because I know a lot of you would want to use it :).

Also, I just realized how much I'm probably going to use (Y/N)'s POV. It's just what I'm used to and my favorite. It's also my style of writing, but when Harry and (Y/N) get older, I will start using third person POV, for the sake of being able to see into both of their minds.

"Why'd you tell Ron that he was going to wrestle a troll?"

(Y/N)'s POV

The door swung open, and there stood a witch with a stern face.

"The firs' years Professor McGonagall," said Hagrid.

"Thank you Hagrid, I will take them from here," said the witch.

When she opened the doors I saw the hugest hall I had ever seen. We all followed the Professor through the hallways to the outside of another huge door. I could hear hundreds of people talking, which meant the school is already here.

"Welcome to Hogwarts," said the Professor. I got butterflies in my stomach, Anika was right, this is a great school and this is going to be a great year.

"The start-of-term banquet will begin shortly, but before you take your seats in the Great Hall, you will be sorted into your Houses. The Sorting is a very important ceremony because, while you are here, your House will be something like your family within Hogwarts. You will have your classes with the rest of your House,  sleep in your House dormitory, and spend free time in your House common room." I didn't realize how important our Houses really are, until now.

"The four Houses are called Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Each House has its own noble history, and each has produced outstanding witches and wizards. While you are at Hogwarts, your triumphs will earn you house points, while any rule-breaking, will lose you house points. AT the end of the year, the House with the most points is awarded the House Cup, a great honor. I hope each of you will be a credit to whichever House becomes yours. The Sorting Ceremony will take place in a few minutes in front of the rest of the school. I suggest you all smarten yourselves up as much as you can while you are waiting," she was directing her last sentence towards Neville, whose cloak was around his ear. 

"I shall return when we are ready for you. Please wait quietly." said the Professor. 

I looked at Dean and Seamus, whispering to each other again, I assumed it was about me because they were looking at me. I looked over to Harry whose face dropped from excited to scared after Ron whispered something in his ear. I walked over to them to see what the big deal was.

"What's wrong?" I asked Harry.

"Do you know how we get sorted into our Houses?" Harry said more than asked.

"No?" I said, questioning them.

"Fred said with some sort of test? I think," said Ron. Harry's face remained petrified. 

"It's Fred," I said to them.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Asked Ron.

"I think he just played with you," I said to Ron with a triumphant look on my face.
