Dragging his feet, Sirius followed his new found friends towards the large oak doors until the group came to a shot. An older woman's voice echoed through the hallways assuring all students could hear her. Rocking backwards and forwards on his heels once again Sirius' pride of joining Hogwarts had been pushed down by the nerves of what house he would be in. His friends longed to be in Gryffindor yet he couldn't bare to think of his family's reaction if they found out their first son was in Gryffindor, bringing disgrace to his family's name once again. The group of first years slowly dragged their feet towards the stool where the few hundred children would be sorted. Being called in alphabetical order of last names, Sirius was called out first.
"Sirius Black" the woman's voice shouted. His feet refused to move as soon as his name was called out, James shoved the boy towards the stool finally allowing him to sit down on the stool. The hat was placed on it heads as he twiddled his thumbs in fear of what's about to happen to him.
"Ah another Black I see, I've seen many of your family in my time. But where to put you? I see you have quite the knowledge, you have a nasty streak in you but where do you truly fit? Hm I know" "GRYFFINDOR" the sorting hat announced to the hall. The Gryffindor table erupted into celebration as Sirius was glued to the stool, his vision blurred and his whole body was trembling. Professor McGonagall whispered to him encouraging him towards the Gryffindor table who was still celebrating the new addition to their house, yet the nerves never left his body no matter the celebration, no matter the whispers from Minerva he was horrified for the month he returns to his family. He continued watching the sorting ceremony trying to pay special attention to where his friends would be. Half way through the ceremony, him, Remus, James and Peter had been placed in Gryffindor yet now Y/N was being called towards the stool. Without realising, Sirius trembled in his seat as Y/N dragged his feet along the ridged stone flooring looking even more nervous than Sirius did just 20 minutes ago. He watched the small boy shuffle awkwardly on the stool as he pulled worried facial expressions. The four boys who were already at the table shared a few confused glances with each other until continuing to watch Y/N be sorted. After a wait that felt like hours, the hat finally chose the right place for him.
"HUFFLEPUFF"
Watching Y/N, there was no sense of joy on his face, he look panicked as though something had gone wrong. The four boys shared yet another look, but this time a concerned look for their friend. Before they could discuss what had happened to the boy, Dumbledore had silenced the hall to give a speech to the students who filled the hall.
"I would like to welcome you all to Hogwarts, whether new or old students I can assure a year of great opportunities. After the feast prefects will show all first years to their common rooms. A final note, please remember the forbidden forest is strictly out of bounds. Now enjoy" Dumbledore eventually wandered back to his chair as the once empty plates filled with mountains of food. The other three boys boys dug into whatever they could fit on their plate, yet with Sirius having no appetite he excused himself for a brief moment. He wandered over to the Hufflepuff table in hope to find Y/N who was thankfully sat near the end of the table, looking over he realised Y/N was on his own with nothing on his plate what so ever. He invited himself to sit next to the short boy, leaning in to give him a reassuring whisper, hoping he could help the boy even in the slightest.
"You know Hufflepuff wont be all so bad, even if it wasn't the house you were planning on. You need to eat though, especially if your planning to get through tomorrow with lessons, your always welcome at out table with us, well anywhere with us." He whispered in his ear feeling proud when Y/N looked up at him with a partial smile plastered onto his face .
"Would you really let me sit with you guys? like all of you?" the boy responded, with a tinge of shock in his voice after what Sirius had told him. Of course Sirius had agreed to letting him sit with them, I mean he's their friend after all. Sirius returned to the Gryffindor table with Y/N trailing behind him.
"I've bought you all a gift lads" he shouted towards all three of them as he yanked Y/N down onto the bench in-between himself and Peter. Looking up the three pairs of eyes glued to him were now filled with even more joy than before, which Y/N didn't think was possible. There was a chorus of many 'finally you joined us' even if he was only on another table than them for 10 minutes. As the boys continued eating as though they had never touched food at all Sirius and Y/N had began loading up their plates to join the other 3. The feast was delicious, Sirius couldn't remember the last time he ate so well, he could get used to eating like this.
Ruining the boys fun, especially Y/N's who has to return to the Hufflepuff table, the prefects stood up getting ready to lead the new students of Hogwarts to their common rooms. The Gryffindor table followed Frank Longbottom who lead them up multiple staircases, they passed the Hufflepuff's who were remaining a few floor lowers than them, the four boys called out to Y/N catching his attention before it was too late.
"See you tomorrow Skinner!'
"Join us at breakfast!"
"We might even have classes together"
"See you!"
The four boys yelled down to Y/N causing him to flash a crimson red from the amount of looks directed towards him. They continued following everyone else until they came to a halt outside a portrait who was apparently named "The Fat Lady". They boy announced the password to everyone surrounding him, yet no surprises Sirius wasn't listening, hoping at least one of them were. They all squeezed through the portrait hole gasping as the sight of the common room. The walls were painting a dark red, one that welcomed you, and the burning fire lit up the room. It felt truly safe in this room, personally Sirius' favourite were the plush sofas which from the jump test he did are extremely comfy. All four boys were thankfully in a dorm together, where they all headed to unpack their trunks and drift off into a deep sleep ready for tomorrow.
