Living A Lie (A Harry Potter Fanfic)

Chapter 2

"You're a Weasley."

Draco's jaw dropped.

"Umm is that supposed to mean something to me?" I asked confused.

"You don't know of the Weasleys?" Madam Pomfrey asked me.

"No, I don't. I barely know anything about this place. I literally didn't know my last name until a few seconds ago. Ugh, I have so many questions," I said.

"Well for starters, you have seven siblings that I'm sure will be excited to meet you," Madam Pomfrey said.

"Hold on, I have SEVEN siblings? All my life I've been lonely, thinking I was an only child when all along I had seven siblings that I never knew," I said sadly.

"Yes, I suppose so. I'm sorry dear that you had to go through this. I should take you to the headmaster's office. I will be right back," Madam Pomfrey said then scurried off.

Draco was still sitting next to me not saying a word. Only now, he was a little further away than before. He looked like he was still in shock.

"Draco, are you alright?" I asked a little worried.

"Uh yeah. I guess I'm just surprised that you're a Weasley. I mean, you don't even have red hair," Draco said looking at my hair.

"All the Weasleys have red hair?" I asked.

"Yep. Every last one of them," he said.

"Then why don't I?" I half whispered. I had so many questions, my head was pounding. Draco really seems off, but maybe I'm just misinterpreting things.

Then, Madam Pomfrey came through the doorway.

"Draco, you're free to go. Thank you for bringing Molly here," she said then gestured for Draco to go out of the room.

Draco got up and left without saying a word.

"Now Molly, you can follow me to the Headmaster's office," Madam Pomfrey headed out the door and I followed.

The door to the headmaster's office was beautiful. I had never seen anything like it.

"Professor Dumbledore, I have brought Molly to see you," Madam Pomfrey said.

A man with long, white hair and a long beard came towards us. He gave me a small smile and said, "Hello, Molly! I am Professor Dumbledore. And we have a lot to discuss."

"Hi, Professor. It's nice to meet you!" I replied. There were so many questions pounding through my head. I need answers. Madam Pomfrey left the room so we could talk. His office was amazing, and bigger than I expected.

"Molly, I'm sure you have a lot of questions. Soon they will all be answered. But for now, let's start by getting you sorted," he said.

"I'm sorry, but I don't know what you mean by that," I said confused.

"Well, here at Hogwarts we split the students into four groups. Throughout the year, you will be able to work together as a group and help build each other up. We refer to those groups as Houses. Your house is like your family. There are 4 houses: Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw. Each student fits in a certain house and we have an object to help us with the sorting," Dumbledore said, then walked towards an interesting object that I couldn't really tell what it was.
