The Slytherin Potter[ On Hold]

Chapter 1

Sixteen year old Harry Potter, elder brother of the boy who lived sat at the Slytherin table. He was with his best friend Daphne Greengrass. Her head was on his shoulder, as they were waiting for the Goblet of fire to regurgitate the champions names. The rules were anyone who had taken their OWL's could enter. Harry after much persistence from Daphne had entered.

Daphne was his closes friend ever since the day he met her on the Hogwarts Express on their first year. He was a quiet shy boy. She was rather timid her self, and was rather shy and scared asking to sit with Harry. Harry smiled at her softly and nodded. She thanked him quietly and smiled at him, than sat opposite him.

They had sat in silence for quiet a while tell the food trolley came. Daphne just shook her head nervously at the kind plump witch. Harry got some sweets and snacks and returned to the compartment.

In the end Harry spoke to the blonde girl opposite him. "Want one." He offered the box of Jelly Slugs. He smiled at her.

She looked over. "Please." She smiled taking one. "There my favourite."

Harry smiled at her. "Well here." He placed the box on her lap.

"No I couldn't. There yours after all."

"Seriously it's fine. I'm Harry by the way." He smiled at her again.

"Really thank you Harry. I'm Daphne by the way."

"Pleasure to meet you Daphne."

"And you Harry. So can I ask your last name."

"Potter." He sighed.

"Oh what's wrong."

"Your gonna question me about my stupid little brother. As well as my oh so great parents right." It did not seem like a question.

"Of course not Harry, I'd never judge based on someone's family. Given my." She trailed off on the last part. "My last name is Greengrass by the way. Please don't think I'm bad given my family's history."

"Im not one to judge either. They say family is the one you need to trust and they will always be there for you, that's a load of dragon dung."

Daphne nodded. "Yeah mum and dad loves me but dad was rather cold and distant. Then mum well mum wasn't around much, and will never be now."

"Oh I'm sorry Daphne I know we just met but if you ever need to talk I'm always open to talk too. You see I know what it's like to grow up without much interaction with a mother or farther."

Daphne smiled sadly. "Guess we're not so different, are we Harry."

"No I guess we're not." Harry smiled sadly back.

The pair had both had troubled pasts.

"Harry do you think. Well do you think we could be friends. You know no matter what house we go too?"

Harry looked at the small blonde girl kindly. "Of course Daphne."

"Thanks Harry it will be nice to have a friend."

"You too Daphne thank you."

Once reaching Hogwarts the pair got sorted into Slytherin. Daphne weren't such a shock as her family tends to go to Slytherin with a few Ravenclaw's. But Harry was a total shock. His father had sent him a howler, the second morning after his sorting. Harry just made it look like it did not bother him. He had gotten use to hiding his emotions. Way before Hogwarts. His first two years at Hogwarts were uneventful, he did however become a chaser on the Slytherin Qudditch team in his second year. He grew feather apart from his mother and father as time went on.
