____________________________________________________________________________________
I take one step forward and another, around me people are telling my name and those people are coming from the Slytherin table. Slytherin, my house. I can see my cousins rising from their seats where they are sitting at the Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Gryffindor tables. It has never happened. A Weasley has never ever been placed into Slytherin before.
But I had to.
When I saw the look on Al's face, when the sorting hat said the word Slytherin I knew that the moment I'm going to go sit on that chair I'm going to ask desperately to be sorted into Slytherin. I can't just leave Al alone. We're best friends since the day we were born plus we're cousins, we're supposed to look out for each other and that is exactly what I planned on doing.
Doing this I do not regret, but I'm scared. Really scared. What will my family think of me; at least Al's surname is Potter. Mine is Weasley and the Weasley name never goes to this house. What if dad takes me out of school because of this?
Stop worrying, stop it. It's going to be fine.
I was now standing right in front of the table and I see that Al has shifted in his seat so that I can go and sit next to him.
I felt so nerve wrecking sitting between all these people my father had always warned me about. But why? What did they do that it was worth warning me about? I was about to live with them for the next seven years.
I smiled at Al and he gave me a small smile back before staring back at his plate in front of him, the great feast hasn't started yet and I see out of the corner of my eye McGonagall standing out to announce that the feast will begin. Of all the things my father would talk about at home the most was the great feast and how he would always eat the most food at the whole Gryffindor table.
Just as I thought about the table I instant looked up towards the other 3 tables that was standing in front of me and I could see that all of my cousins that are currently in school were staring at me and Al. From the Gryffindor table James were practically glaring at Al but when his eyes landed on me it softened and he looked away. He must be ashamed because his brother didn't get into Gryffindor house.
I started looking around the Slytherin table to see a certain white haired boy staring directly at us and when he realized that I caught him staring he quickly turned his head and started talking to the boy sitting next to him. Next to me was Al but I now realize that on the other side was one of the Slytherin prefects and he was yelling something toward a girl that was sitting a little bit farther away, it sounded as if they were talking about quidditch but you never know.
After the feast finished the boy sitting next to me called all the first years towards him to introduce him and to lead us towards our bedchambers.
"First years! I am still in my sixth year so you don't have to worry too much about me it's just the head boy and head girl who is a little bit to stern on our little first years and before you follow me towards the dungeon I want to introduce myself. I'm Lyan and after today don't bother me too much I've got quidditch to worry about."
I remembered what my dad told me about the Slytherin's, they were self-centered and evil. But I'm neither.
The walk towards the dungeons was uncomfortable, but that was mostly because I was scared of my dad but when we got to the dorms and I met my roommates I was actually surprised by how nice most of them was.
A few years ago Hogwarts decided that they'll take more children in by grade because of the population growing and more people being recognized with magic, but not that much though we are still concealed from all the muggles out there, it's mostly because lots of children was born after the war. For all these reason there are now 20 first years each year in each house meaning that my room had other girls staring at me.
I knew the biggest relationship I'll get with these girls are a roommate one because I've already got my best friend and I could already see that there was a group forming between all of us.
A dark haired girl stepped forward with 2 girls trailing behind her.
"You're a pureblood right?" She asked.
"Actually I'm a half blood, my dad's a pureblood, but my mom was muggleborn and they met at school here." I answered, without realizing what trap that was.
"But I thought that only purebloods got into the best house of all time, how did you get in here?"
"Shut up, Paisley." A blonde girl stepped between us and I could feel that she'll definitely be one of my friends, "If you know the history you'll know that one of the darkest wizards of all time was a half blood and was sorted into Slytherin as well as some other wizards so go find something else to mope around."
Paisley's eyes darkened after the blonde girl told her that and she and her 2 friends immediately chose beds as far from us as possible.
"I'm Elina, by the way."
"Rose." I said and I felt the smile spreading on my face.
