Hundreds of children were waiting by the great hall's door, waiting for professor Mcgonagall to let them in.
Aliyah is waiting nervously with her friends when she feels a tap on her shoulder.-?:" Ugh will you quit squeaking?! You're making my ears bleed!"
-A:"...? Do I know you?"
-?:" Im Astoria Greengrass of course! How can you not know that?"
-A:"Im not squeaking im talking with my friends"
-R:" Doesn't look like you have any.."
-AG:" Ugh you stupid mudbloods thinking you run this place..!"
-A:"Is she for real? Babes im a pureblood, not that that matters."
-AG:"Oh..Well..uhm.. You're still stupid!"
-P:"Can you please go away and mind your business?"
-AG:"UGH!"Feeling ashamedand humiliated, Astoria Greengrass left thumping.
The girls bursted in laughter and Aliyah told them that she isnt even a pureblood, only her father is.
Professor Mcgonagall finally appeared and explained the different houses to the first years. Theres Griffindor, Slytherin,Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. After that the massive doors opened and they stepped inside.
The girls looked in awe at the bewitched ceiling and the floating candles and ghosts.
The students were told to form a line and Professor Mcgonagall began calling names. The students were being called to get sorted. Hermione, Rose's sister was sorted into Griffindor along with Harry Potter . When Aliyahs turn finally rolled around she sat on the chair nervously waiting for the Sorting Hat to place her in a house.
The hat seemed... puzzled. Aliyah came from a line of hundreds of Hufflepuffs yet the hat didnt say a word about it. It sat thinking on her head.-Hat:" Difficult,yes, very.. difficult. Oh...i see great Hufflepuff qualities in you but.. i think its not your hearts true desire. Hmm... Perhaps...SLYTHERIN!
-A": Oh.. Wow.. I'm the first ever slytherin in my family in hundreds of years... Thats totally not gonna mess with me for the rest if the year..Aliyah didn't know how to feel. She went over to the Slytherin table and sat next to a blonde boy who was sorted a couple of minutes before her. He looked happy and quite proud of his house. He turned to her:
-?:"Welcome to Slytherin! I'm Malfoy.., Draco Malfoy."
-A:" I'm Aliyah Hazelwood"
-D:"You know... I always knew i was a slytherin because my whole family is filled with slytherins."
-A:"...I'm the first slytherin in my family..."
-D:"Well in my opinion its the best house to be in"
-A:"mhm.."She was hoping at least one of her friends would get into slytherin because than she wouldn't be alone.
It was finally Rose's turn and once she sat on the stool and the hat was placed on her head, it immediately blurted out "SLYTHERIN " and out of joy Rose started to scream and dance around making the whole school laugh.
Pansy also ended up in slytherin even though she didnt make a scene like Rose, she was still excited to be with all of her friends.
Aliyah felt better now that she had her friends by her side. Once all three of the girls sar down, Draco and a couple of other first-year boys started talking to them.-E:Hii i'm Lorenzo but you guys can call me Enzo!
-M:I'm Mattheo , im Draco's cousin.
-T:I'm Theodore Nott.
-D:And i'm Draco
-R:I am Rose!!
-P:My name's Pansy
-A:And im Aliyah, nice to meet you all!Immediately after Aliyah finished the sentace Astoria sat down next to Draco and started telling him about how Aliyah, Pansy and Rose fought earlier with her. At one point she even started fake-crying. The boys saw right through her started laughing and so did the girls. Draco was trying to keep it together and not laugh but it became quite impossible and he eventually bursted into laughter. Once he stopped laughing he asked Astoria:
-D:"Who are you?"
-AG:"What do you mean?! I am Astoria Greengrass the absolute best pureblood wich in this whole school!"
-D:"... Okay... uhm well I don't care that you fought with them... so can you like... leave?"
-AG:"Ugh you are just like them!" she scoffed
-M:" Just leave already"
-R:"Aren't you tired of embarrassing yourself already?"-said Rose while rolling her eyes
-A:"Byee Astoria!"- she said smirkingAfter everyone was sorted, each house's prefect took the children to the common-rooms. Slytherin's common room was downstairs, in the dungeons alongside Hufflepuff's.
The first-years shared their dorms with one or two other students so Aliyah hoped that she could share her dorm with Pansy and Rose.
Once in the common toom they met their Head of House, Professor Snape, Hogwarts potion's master. He started reading who everyone's roomates will be.-P.S: Miss Hazelwood you will be sharing your dormitory with Miss Greengrass...Mi-
-A.G:" WHAT?! I AM NOT SHARING MY ROOM WITH THAT.. THAT.. HIDEOUS BEING!"
-A:" I don't want to share my dorm with you either.. Can't someone else share the room with her , sir?
-P.S:"...No."
-A.G:" MY PARENTS WILL BE SOOO MAD IF YOU DONT MOVE HER TO ANOTHER ROOM"
-P.S" Miss Greengrass, I advise you stop complaining or else i will give you detention... with Mr. Filch, the caretaker."
-AG:"UGH FINE!"Aliyah didn't want to share her room with Astoria but she had to. Her friends, Pansy and Rose were lucky enough to share a room so she was a bit jealous.
Afrer unpacking her stuff she went to the common room and just hung out with her friends and the boys dhe met earlier. They talked and laughed until 9 pm, when Prof. Snape told all the first years to go to their rooms and prepare for the next day.
When Aliyah got to her room Astoria was already sound asleep so she changed quietly and wrote a letter to her parents telling them all about her first day at Hogwarts and hoping that they wont be mad or disappointed that she got put in Slytherin.
She was quite tried so she quickly fell asleep with Moon next to her. She hoped that the bext day would be better.
