Also, let's pretend Angelina, Alicia, and Katie are all in the same year as Miley and the twins!

"First years! Over here!" Hagrid called getting the attention of all the clueless first years.

Fred, George, and Miley followed everyone else to Hogwarts. Lee Jordan caught up to them shortly. "You didn't tell me Percy was prefect this year?" he asked. "Oh yeah, and me," Miley realized.

"We've been trying to forget it ourselves. All summer he was boasting about it," Fred grumbled. "We even tried to make memory modifying potions for ourselves but he told on us before we could drink them," George added with a scowl.

"Aw, that's... sad," Miley said unsure of what to say. She was silently wishing she hadn't said anything.

"I hope Harry's in Gryffindor," a familiar voice said from behind Miley. "Me too," another voice said and Miley's grin widened. It was Katie Bell and Angelina Johnson.

Miley decided that being friends with boys was good and all but she needed girls to confide in as well and was grateful Angelina and Katie- and Alicia Spinnet were in the same house and team as her.

They made their way to the Great Hall murmuring about the beautiful decorations. Peeves the Poltergeist threw water balloons but before he could hit Miley, Professor Flitwick put a stop to him. "I'll get them next time," he scowled and head off.

Hagrid led the first years and Professor McGonagall took charge of them. Everyone quieted down, excited about the sorting.

"How many galleons, Ron's not in Gryffindor?" Fred asked Geroge. "5," George simply stated.

"Of course he will be," Miley said and Fred gave Miley an amused look. She never butt in when they bet. "5 for me too," she said. 

"Your on," 

Professor McGonagall got the worn-out looking Sorting Hat which placed every single Hogwarts Student to their correct house. Sometimes it would shout out the house right when it touched you or sometimes it would take a few minutes. It took a few seconds for it to decided Miley's house and she was a nervous wreck.

Miley grinned as she remembered her experience with the hat and how nervous she was when she first put it on.

She spotted Harry also looking pretty nervous and sent him calm vibes even though she knew he couldn't feel them.

It's not that bad. It doesn't hurt or anything really. I thought we had to do some sort of test at first but then again the Weasley twins are living proof why some of us have trust issues. 

Harry's nervous face suddenly turned into a small smile and Miley suddenly wondered if what she was saying to him- reached out to him. Before she could ponder over this the hat sprung into its song it does every new year at Hogwarts.

"Oh, you might not think I'm pretty,

But don't judge on what you see,

I'll eat myself if you can find

A smarter hat than me.

You can keep your bowlers black,

Your top hats sleek and tall,

For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat

And I can cap them all.

There's nothing hidden in your head
