Odd Weasley

Chapter Three

For all the Hufflepuffs out there. Sorted This Way and Hufflepuff Pride.

I run through the gate and wait for the others.

"Goodbye," Mum cries. "My babies are going to Hogwarts."

"Mum," I groan. Ginny elbows my side.

"Be good," Dad tells us. "And if that Malfoy boy gives you any trouble, just let me know."

"Okay Dad," Ginny quickly states. We got to go. We head on the train. Ginny disappears, leaving me alone.

I find an empty compartment and put my stuff above. Someone clears their throat and I turn to see Draco, two Slytherin dudes and a girl.

"I think this is ours," Draco states. The girl beside him giggles.

"Don't try me Malfoy," I snap.

"Why? Are you going to send your brother after me."

"I can be a lot scarier than Ron. Or any of them as a matter of fact."

"Whatever Weasley," the girl says. "I'm going somewhere else Dracky. Do you want to come?"

Draco shakes his head. The other three leave.

"Don't want to join your friends?" I ask. He sits down.

"No. I'm not letting a Weasley run me out."

"Whatever."

I put up the rest of my stuff. There is a sudden jerks and I fall bakwards. Draco pushes me off and I sit across.

"So I have to deal with two Gryffindors," Draco grumbles. I barely heard him at first.

"Yeah. So?" I snap. I see a car fly past us. Those two are going to be in soooo much trouble. The trolley stops.

"Anything dearies?" The lady ask I pull out what little I have on me.

"One licorice wand," I request. I pay her and she gives me the candy. I sit down.

"Pathetic," Draco spats. "Can barely afford a small piece of candy."

"Thing is, we're happy without all the money you have."

His jaw drops and I smirk. Victory. Or at least I thought. We continue to argue until we get to Hogwarts. I get off and join the first years. Ginny and I start talking about the train ride.

"You hide to ride with Malfoy?" She asks. I nod my head. We head straight to the boats. They row themselves when they are full.

I think it's pretty cool. And the castle gets closer and closer to us. It is so lovely against the night sky. After we get out, a professor leads us to a set of huge doors.

"In a minute," she says. "You'll be separated into your houses. They're Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw. I'll go see if they're ready for you."

People start talking to others, but I just hang out with my sister. It's nice, because I know soon we're going to be against each other in everything. The professor comes back.

"We're ready," she states. The doors fly open and I walk with Ginny. A hat starts singing and my jaw drops. I thought the twins were joking.

"I will call you alphabetically," the woman states. We slowly go up.

"Abigale Weasley," I hear. I walk over and sit on the stool. The hat is placed on my head.

"Ah," It freaks. "How many more are left? GRY... Wait. Odd. Different indeed...SLYTHERIN!"

The Slytherin table slightly claps and I walk over.

"Welcome Weasley," Draco spits. "This will be interesting."

I groan and set my head on the table.
