Rights And Wrongs | Dramione

Chapter One

My first HP Fanfic!!! I really like Dramione but ONLY when it's carefully done and planned out.
So i'm attempting one of those.

NOTES:
Lavender Survives, becomes a bit less snobby and childish
Astoria Greengrass is the same age
Ashley Harper is a simple original character

Hermione's POV

"Welcome students, to another year at hogwarts." Mcgonagall said in a half-monitone voice but with something else sparkling in her eye. Perhaps you if maybe regret. She tood in the same spot that Dumbledore once stood. She looked around at the students. New and old, all just yearning to learn. Eell, most atleast. There were alot of first years, most I've ever seen, i believe most parents waited for it to be safe at Hogwarts before sending them. If send my child under the rule of Mcgonagall any day.

"Due to an unfortunate headmaster and teachers last year, an 8th year has been added to Hogwarts. We are yet to know if it's permanent or temporary, but for the time being We will have it." She explained.

Unfortunate? I'll say. Kids were being torutured for bloody sake!

She carried on with a short speech about the previous year and Dumbledore and how this year would be like none before, and then got the sorting hat. I have missed that old hat.

Of course it sang it's little song about the houses and all that stuff. When it finished Mcgonagall started calling out the names of first years.

"Amber, Counrtney."

A short blonde little girl stiffly walked up to the stool. She looked so scared and nervous as she sat with her back straight and eyes staring straight ahead. After a few moments of silence, the hat yelled out "RAVENCLAW!"

Everyone clapped and the girl's face .elted into relief and she skipped off to her new house's table.

A few more students later, the first Griffindor was called. A little brunette with purple dye at the edges of his hair.

Ginny Weasly, leaned in next to me to whisper something. Ginny was positively my best friend besides Harry Potter and Ron Weasly.

"Haven't you noticed most of the kids are in Hufflepuff? What's up with that. Their aren't even any Slytherins yet." Ginny said.

Now that she pointed it out, I did notice that. Did all these kids plan this? Plan to be in Hufflepuff?

"HUFFLEPUFF!" The hat yelled for Lisa Lola, only like 30 more kids left. Geez was this going to be a long night of sorting kids.

I sighed and rested my elbows on the table and put my head on my hands. The sorting had always been a long ceramony, but this one was much longer than any before. My stomache twisted a bit in hunger yet I stayed in my position without a reaction to it as i watched the next child get sorted.

32 kids later, we're finally done. I can't lie, HALF the kids are Hufflepuff! Out of over around 52 kids, only 9 are griffindor, 11 as ravenclaw, and 10 Slytherin. It's insane! When did so many people become HufflePuff, of all houses!

Regardless of these circumstances, we start the feast.

Just like after the war, Kids switch tables to talk to friends and siblings. I would too if the majority of my friends were in another house. Thankfully their not.
Ashley Harper, an 8th year Ravenclaw, sits between to Neville Longbottom and Ron.

Beside Ron, was the once perky, clingy, and annoying, Lavender Brown. She actually sat with us.
She had miraculously survived the war and seemed to have lost some of the "Crazy" she had in 6th year, but she still had her fingers intertwined with Ron in a protective manner 

But Hermione! Are by you dating Ron?

You see, sometime in the last short summer, me and Ron, or mostly Ron, had come to the conclusion that the kids we shared during the war was just an "in ten moment" thing and it meant nothing.

To be completely truthful, that hurt a bit. I care deeply for Ron and had strong feelings for him.... But now he's somehow ended up with Lavender Brown again.

I let out another sigh and started eating some roast beef from my plate. Delicious as always.

Harry was talking to Ginny, who sat across from him, about some thoughts on thenew and old professors. I mainly caught them talking about Slughorn, our official potions teacher.

"I heard that he's pairing us up! And were with Slytherin! It would be an utter disaster!" Ginny said. "They can't possibly think of do that!" I added. "It be so horrible!"

"I know, LOOK AT THEM!" Ginny said, gesturing to the Slytherin table beside us.

Draco Malfoy, the cursed bastard himself, and Blaise Zabini (remember him from the Slug Club) were arm throning a girl with silvery brown hair and gleaming blue eyes. i know she's in our class but I can't remember her name. She laughed uncontrollably as they did so.

Pansy Parkinson and Tracey Davis (we we're partners for Potions one year.), Were throwing peas and bread at them trying to get them to drop the girl. But the boys retaliated by trying to catch the good in their mouth.

Was it bad to think it looked fun?

Funny and Harry just scolded at it. "Bloody Idiots." Ginny said.

"Complete Gits." Harry mumbled.

Draco's POV

"Malfoy! Zabini! Malfoy! Zabini!" Pansy and Tracey chanted as we picked up Astoria GreenGrass in an arm throne. She laughed and held onto our shoulders trying to keep her balance.

We were relaxing after such a terrible day.

The sorting vermaony was terrible. Barely any Slytherins and there were so many kids! Like, who cares about doing this! I was starved through the entire thing and Zabini kept whispering about some stupid rumor about a Ravenclaw 4th year through the whole thing.

I'm not sure how dinner exactly came to this, but now Pansy started throwing  food at us and we started attempting to catch it in our mouths without dropping Astoria.

It was nice to finally let go and unwind... the last few years were not the greatest and I'd rather forget about them permanently.

"Hey, let's head back to the dorm soon. Otherwise we'll be stuck having to show the first years around." Tracey said. Pansy scoffed "Ew. First years. We were horrendous as them. Every looks back at their First year and cringes. I vote get outta here then."

I glanced at Blaise and we both shared the same look of agreement. We glanced at Astoria who sat Comfortably on our arms, looking at Pansy.

"1......2.......3..." He started to mouth. On 5, i nodded and we tossed Astoria onto the table and into the laps of Pansy and Tracey.

They laughed in suprise as Astoria rolled  and hit the ground. After a moment of complete silence, me and Zabini started laughing. Astoria rubbed her side and crossed her arms, still on the ground. "Not Funny!" She complained.

"Alright, Alright. Let's go, GreenGrass" Blaire said, helping her up. We calmed ourselves down from the laughing for as we left towards the exit. I glanced back at the room and all the happy people. My eyes landed on some other unmistakably brown eyes that were looking at me.

These eyes belonged to Hermione Granger. We were making eye contact for just a breic bit. But as soon as we made the eye contact, we both looked away.

I left the great hall and forgot all about the Muggleborn who had gone back to looking at me
