The Story Of Our Lives {Draco Malfoy Fanfiction}

3》 What House to Choose

The train came to a stop and we got our stuff and headed outside. It was pretty crowded but the only reason we were able to find where to go was because we saw a huge man saying, "Firs' years over here!" The four of us went over to him and Harry immediately greeted him. I'm assuming that they've met before.

"Hi Hagrid. I want you to meet my new friends. Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, and Y/n Jeon."

"Hey there, guys. What a pleasure to meet you."

I smiled and waved at Hagrid. He seems really kind.

Once all the first years were gathered together, Hagrid led us to a lake with many boats. Harry, Ron, Hermione, and I got on the same boat as Hagrid. Everyone rode a boat while saying 'oohs' and 'aahs'. I understood why they did that. I'm just as excited as they are. When we reached the castle, we all got off the boats and followed Hagrid. He stopped us at a staircase where an old-looking lady stood. She had grey hair that was pulled in a tight bun. Not a single strand of hair stuck out. She also looked really strict. I could tell you wouldn't want to get in trouble with her. She started speaking to us.

"Welcome to Hogwarts. Now, in a few moments, you will pass through those doors and join your classmates. But, before you can take your seats, you must be sorted into your houses. There are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Now while you're here, your house will be like your family. Your triumps will earn you points;  any rule-breaking, and you will lose points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points will be rewarded the House Cup."

A toad at the front of the stairs starting making noise and a boy yelled out, "Trevor!" He picked up the toad and looked up at the lady. After apologizing, he made his way back to where he was before.

"The sorting ceremony will begin momentarily." She said.

She turned around and entered the Great Hall. At least I think it was called the Great Hall; I can't remember.

Soon, we were called into the room. As we were walking, all eyes were on us. I pretty much ignored the stares though. I was paying attention to the ceiling. It was the night sky filled with stars. Candles also floated above us.

"It's bewitched to look like the night sky. I read it in Hogwarts: A History." I heard Hermione tell another first year. I just learned something new! No, not that the ceiling's bewitched. I learned that Hermione like reading really boring books! You learn something new everyday.

Professor Mcgonagall set down a 3-legged stool in front of us, along with an old hat. Suddenly, the hat started speaking. Well that's new. It sang a really long poem. When it finished, Professor Mcgonagall called the first name.

Hermione's name was called and she got put in Gryffindor. Later, my name was called.

"Jeon, Y/n!" I went up and sat on the stool. The hat was put on top of my head.

"Hmmm. A hard one. Yes, a very hard one." it said. "Smart and creative just like a Ravenclaw. Loyal and kind like a Hufflepuff. Yet you're cunning and ambitious; a perfect Slytherin. Still, I sense bravery and courage in you. Gryffindor would be a good place to put you too. Choices, choices. The choice comes down to Slytherin or Gryffindor."

What would my dad think if I was put in Slytherin? Would he be happy?... or would he be disappointed in me?

"Scared to be in Slytherin eyy? Well then, best be GRYFFINDOR!!"

I smiled widely hearing the house I was now in. I got off the stool and scurried over to the table where there were students who were standing up and clapping. I sat next to Hermione.

When Malfoy's name was called, he was immediately put in Slytherin before the hat even reached his head. Harry and Ron were, coincidentally, in Gryffindor too.

Professor Dumbledore said a few words, then the sorting finished. During the feast, I met Ron's older twin brothers Fred and George(they're hilarious, but I can't tell them apart). After dinner, we went to the common room and I knocked out, as I was tired of the long day.

And so, there went went my first year, then my second, then my third, and last but not least, my fourth year.

Now, I'm 14 years old. It's summer and when terms start, I'll be going back to Hogwarts as a fifth year.
