Undiscovered (Y/n x Mattheo Riddle)

Chapter 4

I hurried and changed into my robes before stepping off the train. Before me stood a huge castle, with towers that reached the sky. I stood there in awe, before a swarm of kids pushed me towards the entrance. We all advanced into the castle, wearing identical robes. A lady with silky gray hair, tiny spectacles, green robes and a pointed hat seemed to be waiting for us. She must be Mcgonagall.

"Before heading to your dorms, you will be sorted into your houses. There is Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw,"she said, before ushering us into what seemed to be a huge dining room. All around us there are several kids of all ages, all separated into color coded tables. Just then someone tugged my arm.

"There you are!" It was Draco, "I thought I lost you." He let out a high pitched laugh.

"What's going on?" I ask, because I am extremely confused. He rolls his eyes.

"We are getting sorted into our houses," A sly grin spread across his face "although I already know what house I belong to, Slytherin. The best house there is"

Just then, we are all lined up in front of the room. Mcgonagall steps up in front of us again, but this time she is holding something, it looks like a hat.

"When you hear your name, step up and the sorting hat will be placed upon your head." She took a breath and looked down on what looked like some sort of list. "Ron Weasley"

As all Weasleys, this one had short bright red hair and several freckles. He sat down on a stool that had been placed in front of the crowd. The hat was now placed on his head and to my surprise it spoke.

"Hmmmm...," it said, "Better be Gryffindor!" It shouted. The boy, Ron was now smiling as he ran to one of the tables to high five someone who looked oddly familiar. It was the boy from the train, Fred Weasley. I want to go over and say something, but Mcgonagall has already started calling more names. About five names later she calls a name I actually recognize.

"Draco Malfoy" She says loud and clear. Draco turns to me and winks before stepping up and sitting on the small wooden stool. The Professor steps forward to place the odd hat on his head, but when it's barely touching him, inches away from his head, it shouts.

"Slytherin!"

Malfoy got up, but not before flashing a small smile at me as if to say "told you so", and headed to the tables with kids dressed in green.

"Y/n!" I hear Mcgonagall call next. I wait a little bit, but no one walks up to the stool. That's when I realized she called me.

I rush up to the stool and take a seat, already embarrassed by my late entrance. Then I feel something made of fabric fall upon my head. I sit there waiting for the sorting hat to say something and from the looks of it so is everyone else.

"Hmmmm..." It finally speaks up, "I have never seen anything like this before"

I am about to ask what it means when it speaks again.

"Slyffleinclaw!"

The room goes silent, I can feel everyone's eyes on me. I don't think this was supposed to happen. I turn to look at Mcgonagall but she is staring at me like everyone else, jaw unhinged. Then she clears her throat and takes the floor herself.

"Slytherin!" She says it loud enough for everyone to hear. Then the whispers start. Who are they?What kind of house is that?They are trouble I just know!

I get up, my legs shaking and head over to sit with Draco. I look up to see him smirking, he seems to be the only one amused by this. I go to sit across from him when I see Pansy sitting beside him, but he glares at Pansy.

"Move" He says harshly. She looks at him with disbelief.

"I got here first!" She argues. I stand there looking back and forth between the both of them.

"Move" Draco repeats. She does this time but not without shooting me a dirty look. I take my seat beside Draco and he nudges me.

"What happened up there?" He asks and from the sounds of it, it's out of pure amusement. Before I can answer, Pansy speaks up.

"You expect her to know?" She scoffs, "Not even the Professors do"

I shrink down in my seat, "So this isn't normal?" I ask desperately. Draco laughs until he is crying.

"Hell no." He replies, "I don't think this has ever happened in the history of hogwarts"
