Harry pov:

The first few day's wasn't really all that eventful. The first night in the boys dorm Ron was being  an arse demanding for Neville to move as his bed was next to mine as the house elf had put his things there I cut in to help. He pregrudgingly took the bed the house the elf set his stuff at which is across the room from me. The next morning Neville and I woke up early  me early  than him because I am used to waking at 5a.m. every morning so I silently write a letter to Flourish and Blotts asking them for 1 book on Occlumency and Legilimency, 1 20pack of fountain pens, 1 enchanted neverending notebook. I folded the letter attaching it to Hedwig with a few galleons in a pouch sending her off.

Harry- 'the reason for the enchanted neverending notebook will be good because the book will always stay same size but when you open you can flip the ever page which is unlimited amount it also will have a self repairing charm. This notebook is to replace the personal journal I have now that was ruined by Dudley and his friends which is water stained lucky I dried it so I can copy over the essence written in it.'

I am sitting at the Gryffindor table for breakfast not many students are here at the moment Neville and I are sitting with Hermione who is helping us study ahead I was talking to Hermione and Neville about what I was thinking of doing about rotating between houses each day at meals. They both didn't seem to keen on it. So I dropped it and we went back to studying for our classes which got us each 10 points from Mcgonagall  and making Gryffindor house in lead as we were awarded the  first points of the year. The next morning  on Monday  before  class I  again  try to convince  my friends  of the rotating houses. I told them how I read the rule book and how there is no rule against it and it only staits that we have to eat at our house table for sorting ceremony and at end of the year when awarding house cup. This seem to ease Hermione  more as there be no rule breaking Neville however still wasn't to much into the idea as he was raised that all Slytherin are bad news I was however going to argue the hat was planning to put me in Slytherin but decided to hold off and simple put it this way.

Harry- "Neville  I  going to  say  this ok I  am going to be doing this with or without you guys I will not force you to do anything you don't want it is your decision and I will  not hold it against either of you and still gladly continue our friendship if you decide not to join. If you do however decide to join you will be free to leave at anytime I am only doing this because I don't agree with the house devided thing if we only ever hang out with people who are in are house then we will only ever have friends who are like us but the way I see it going to sit and mingle with other houses we get to meet different people who are different but who knows what they have to offer and then you won't just have people who are just like you but you will have a variety of different types of friends who has other options and by discussing the differences and things those others have to offer you can grow more as a person and if doesn't work out hey at least we say we at least tried"

After saying this Neville  seem to think of it from my perspective with my idea he has nothing to lose but a possibilty  to gain. He seem to relax when I say that it's  his choice and no matter what he chooses I still be his friend and  if he did  decided to join  he can back out anytime he wished. In the end they agreed to join me.

It's Thursday morning now the last few days been intresting  professor  Snape  tried taking point away but that was for us not sitting at our house table that was of course  was  stopped as he couldn't do anything as there was no rule breaking. I ended up getting  my stuff from Flourish and Blotts Sunday morning  at only hours after I order them. That night I start my training in Occlumency. The first day in class I found out quickly I was quite good with  transfiguration and charms. Ron still is trying to make it seem like he my friend when I just find him annoying. I did how ever did start a friendship with my other roommates 2 first years named Dean Thomas and Seamus Finnegan. Ron seemed jealous when we all found initial carvered in a beam on our bed and he didn't my bed had JCP, Neville's had SOB which mind you we four had a laugh about, Dean Thomas had RJL and finally Seamus Finnegan had  PAP. The four of us decided to carve our initials under the old ones. So far everything is going good I  manage to copy everything from my water stained journal over to my new one, my Occlumency is going good I manage to get it to where I can block  weaker mental attacks I should  be able to get it to stronger by Hollowween. Today I was slightly  anxious but didn't show it as today not only are we going to try to sit with Slytherin but today we have our first potions  class. As I  enter the great hall  with Hermione and Neville not far behind all eyes were on us though people still slightly engaged in conversation. I  new every one was waiting to see where we will  sit today   as everyone had figured out we be alternating  days  of  the  houses I knew they were wondering  if I  was actually planning to sit with Slytherin or start the cycle over again. I walk up to the Slytherin  table with a calm smile on my face while Hermione and Neville walk behind  me in toe I stand  next to the Slytherin  table and  the whole hall stops talking and stars it so quite  you could hear a pin drop.

Harry- "Good morning may we sit down"

Malfoy-*puffs his chest out and arrogantly* " what you doing hear Potter Gryffindor aren't welcome here"

Harry- "Oh Malfoy are you still looking  for your mate because  by the way you are  puffing out your chest and seem to flaunt your arrogant like  a male peacock would  flaunt his feathers  to get a female  to  notice him"

At this many of the great hall laugh  at this.

Malfoy-*turns red in anger* " how dare you Potter I get you for that"

Harry- "you know Malfoy I come  here to to get to know  my fellow  first years in Slytherin  I was hoping  that you would  have at least try to practice  some civility after what happened  last time but it seems that you are just proving I  made the right choice  while  asking not to be put in Slytherin"

At this the hall was silent in shock. Starring at me in surprise  then another first year Slytherin a girl  with long blonde  hair and cold blue eyes.

???-"wait you are saying you could have been  sorted  into Slytherin."

Harry-*look the girl right  in the eyes* "Yes miss I could  have been  the sorting hat said I had qualities of each house but it was thinking of putting me in Slytherin or Gryffindor  more than the other to I  ask to be housed with my friends  because I did not want to be in the same house as the blonde peacock who insulted my friends and is over all quite rude as I said before I really don't like bullies."

Malfoy-"please like anyone would choose  not to be a Slytherin"

Harry-" You see it's  that attitude on why I didn't wish to be housed in Slytherin I have nothing against them  and I actually don't see why all our houses can't get along but it's  tour in civility attitude on why I didn't want to be around all the time if you are so keen Malfoy to not be civil then we can always sit with other Slytherin  who will"

After saying  that a girl  elbows Draco in the ribs and the boy who pulled him away last time reach around  the girl over to Draco  a smacked the back his head. Around the same time a upper class Slytherin probably  in 6th years stood up gesturing us down and shout."

Slytherin girl- *shouts* "come down  here and sit with us cutie we will treat you and your friends right"

At this I give a slight blush looking at the floor not used to being called cute.
At this the girl who elbowed Draco stood up and shouts out dibs on us this of course gets her to become flustered while  the great  hall laughs with tention now subsided the Slytherin  made room for us to sit Neville was still slightly nervous not as bad as before Hermione and I sat on either side him to be a filter as he still feels uncomfortable around Slytherin.  Potions came around and I  partnered with Neville  while Hermione some Gryffindor girl. Professor Snape seemed to grill Ron as he didn't pay attention. When making our potions Neveille  and  I  finished it with no mishaps and our potion was only a few color codes off. There was a moment I had to stop  Neville from  putting  in an ingredient telling him that it need to be off the flame first.
