She was lost in her thoughts that she doesn't realize ,another boy entered the compartment. He sat beside Scorpius and both of them were talking. Realizing her gaze the new boy looked at her and smiled. Scorpius nudge him and muttered, "She is our professor."

The boy looked astonished and said, "you are our professor?"

Celia smiled and nodded. Then again he said "but you don't look like... I mean I thought you are a student!"

Celia laughed and said "Really! May I take that as a compliment?"

The boy blushed hard and said "oh I forgot to introduce myself. I am Albus.
Albus Severus Potter."

Celia asked "Potter. Means you are..."

"Yes, the son of Harry Potter." He replied in a dull tone.

"Great! And I am Celia Scamander."

"Scamander?" Scorpius exclaimed. "Professor are you related to the great magizoologist Newt Scamander?" He asked.

Celia smiled and said "yes, Mr. Malfoy I am his granddaughter."

Then their door suddenly opened and again Scorpius curled up a little.
"Anything from the trolley dear?" The trolley Lady asked. Celia skimmed the boys and said "Yes, please" and then went outside.

When she returned the two boys become familiar with each other. And Scorpius also opens up to Albus. It's a good sign for him. She thought.

"Lads here take as much as you want." Celia places a big basket contains every chocolate of the trolley in front of them. Both of them hesitate at first and looked at her. She smirk and said "it's not poisoned by the way." And then the boys attacked the basket.

Hogwarts: Great Hall

Two women talking at the teacher's table.
"Girl you know he has a huge crush on you.Thats why he blushed so hard whenever he is near you." The old one whispered.

"Oh, stop it, Minerva! He has anxiety and he is just... What can I say... A true and kind gentleman. Also, he is in love with Hannah." The younger one replied.

"Really?" The older witch exclaimed. Celia nods and started playing with her overcoat's button. Then the elderly witch nudge the younger and murmured "here comes your admirer. "
The younger one turned around to the entrance of the great hall and saw a tall, quite healthy, and round-faced man coming towards them. He wore a full sleeve beige shirt under a v-neck maroon sweater. She laughed and said "not mine but my grandfather's."

"Evening Headmistress Mcgonagall, Professor Scamander. "He greeted both of them.

"Good evening Professor Longbottom" Celia and Minerva McGonagall greeted him.
Professor Neville Longbottom, who is the head of the Gryffindor and herbology teacher, sat beside Slughorn, the potion master.

Now when all the students as well as faculties gather in the great hall Mcgonagall stand up and said
"My dear students welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our dinner, I would like to say a few words. Like every year 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 classes with the rest of your house, sleep in your house dormitory and spend free time in your house common room.
'The four houses are called Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Each house has its noble history and each has produced outstanding witches and wizards. While you are at Hogwarts, your triumphs will earn your house points, while any rule-breaking will lose 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 credited 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 paused, scanned the great hall, and started saying And now as you know Professor Slughorn needs rest and we believe now he should spend his time without any workload so from now Professor Scamander will teach you potion. "

"Does that mean we won't have Defence against the dark arts class?" A 7th year student sitting at the Gryffindor table exclaimed.

McGonagall, look at him and say "She will take DADA's class but temporarily. We will hire someone so don't worry. Now let the sorting begin!"

After the sorting ceremony, every first year is seated in their respective houses but there's some commotion. The reason is Albus Severus Potter, son of the great wizard Harry Potter and The quidditch queen Ginny Potter sorted into Slytherin. The Gryffindors are somehow sad even his brother James was also not pleased. But Slytherins are happy with that. Celia looked at the Slytherin table and saw that Scorpius is talking with Albus. It seems like he is consoling him for something.
