Slytherin Princess.

Chapter Four.

When we got to Hogwarts my year went to the great hall but I was made to stand with the overly excited first years.

"Ahh miss Peters."

An old woman in a long black dress approached me.

"Hello Im professor McGonagall, as you are a fourth year you will be sorted first, I hope that's okay."

She walked away not giving me a chance to answer. I got a sudden sick feeling and my palms were sweaty from my nerves.

"Right in we go"

Professor Mcgonagall led us all through the huge doors which uncovered the great hall. Everyone was sat in their houses and their heads turned quickly as the doors opened. Suddenly everyone's eyes were on us. I walked to the front of the hall with the first years and stood in front of a wooden stool with an old hat placed on top of it.

McGonagall called out my name to be sorted. I nervously walked up to sit on the stool hoping my knees wouldn't give in from the shaking. She placed the hat on my head and I felt it come alive.

"Ahh Alex Peters, ooo ..... Peters doesn't sound right for you..... no but I'll keep that comment to myself I think"

The hat spoke as if it had been a smoker for 50 years.

"Well your very interesting..... Better be .... Slytherin!."

I jumped as he shouted Slytherin because I was too focused on what he said previously.

"Peters doesn't suit me ? What did that mean?"

I whispered to myself and I walked over to the table of smiling Slytherins. The rest of the sorting didn't take too long. I looked up around the table to see Draco glancing across the table at me. I felt very uncomfortable like I had done something wrong to make him hate me. Maybe Slytherins hated everyone, or maybe he just hated me.

After everyone had finished dinner I took myself straight up to the Slytherin common room and into my dorm. I walked in to see all my luggage at the end of my bed and my owl Percy in his cage.

"Oh so I guess we are sharing a room with the new girl."

Someone girl with jet black hair and a screwed up face said to her friend sat beside her.

"don't get in our way newbie."

"Oh Pansy you're so funny"

The other girl said in a very hyper tone and laughed at Pansy's unfunny "joke".

Great can't be in my dorm, can't be in the hall let's try the common room. I dragged myself down the stairs which I had just climbed up to enter the common room.
