The pic up there is a HoO head canon. I know it has nothing to do with this story but we are HoO fans. Plus its funny... Enjoy!!!!

Recap..
It kept on this way until it came to my sister.

Heather...

My heart was beating so hard I thought it would jump out of my chest. I sat on the stool and waited for sorting hat to sort me.

'Hmm... Very creative... Yess.... And a really dark secret.... A curse I must say.'
'Curse? What curse?'
'You don't have to know now. But soon...... I'd say you'd do well in Slytherin with that curse of yours.'
'No no.... Please not Slytherin... Please no....'
'You don't want Slytherin?
Fine then, I guess you'll do well in...GRIFFINDOR!!!!

The hat shouted at the last word. There were a few polite claps from the griffindor table, cheers from Harry, Ron, Ginny, Luna, Neville and a death glare from Hermione. The thing was, everyone in the hall was having a confused looked fixed on their faces. I sat down beside Luma a little hesitantly and waited for the others to g t sorted.

When it was Tommy's turn, the hat said, Griffindor. No surprise there since he is really loyal to his friends and very brave. I clapped a little to loudly causing some people to stare at me. Whatever , I didn't care. Tommy sat next to me.

'So we're in the same house eh?' He said
'Yup. I guess it's kinda hard for us to get separated huh?'
'Yeah. We are best friends after all.' He said with a smirk
'Yeah.' I said dreamily. I wish we could be more than just best friends. Snap out of it Heather! He is your best friend for God's sake! Do not spoil your friendship by thinking that!!!

'Alright students.' Professor Dumbledore said.' I am Professor Dumbledore. To the first years, welcome to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! To the rest, welcome back! We have an additional staff this year, the Defence Against The Dark Arts teacher will be no other than professor Billy Nightshade!' ( it took me a really long time to make up a name so I hope you appreciate it! )

We all stared at the new Professor. He looked about in his mid-twenties. He had jet black hair, well-built body, pale skin, brown eyes and a stupid grin.
'Hello students. I'll be your new DADA teacher. Professor Nightshade.'
'Okay students. The feast begins!'

Everyone started eating. Ron seemed to be fighting with his food. I didn't eat much cause I had something lingering at the back of my my mind.

You'd do well in Slytherin with that curse of yours...

I wonder what that means. Even last night Hermione and mom we're talking about my curse. Am I cursed? How did this even happen?!

Professor Mcgonagle passed around our timetables. Then we followed our head prefects up to our dormitories. I was one of the last as I was still thinking about what the hat had said earlier.
