Before long it was time for everyone to head back to Hogwarts or for the first years to begin their adventure at Hogwarts. As everyone makes their way to platform 9 & 3/4. Harriet makes her way through the crowd with her stuff before getting on and roams through the train looking for a empty compartment for her to sit in. But just as she passes one and continues walking she is interrupted by a voice saying. "Hey, join me? I'm alone." The voice Says. Harriet turns around to see Draco, she smiles. She turns around and joins him in the compartment and settles her stuff beside her.
"Thank you for letting me join you." Harriet says. "It's ok. You excited to get there?" He asks. "I am actually. Since I last saw you, I have been going through the books just so I have some knowledge already you know." Harriet says. "Great, you would make a good Ravenclaw you know there all about intelligence, knowledge & planning ahead and more. Whereas me, I'm certain I will be put in Slytherin." He says. "Isn't that the house which is known for every wizard turning bad?" Harriet asks. "Yeah. It's in my blood." He says. "Fair enough, promise no matter what happens later today that we can still be friends?" Harriet asks. "Promise. So tell me more about yourself?" Draco asks, but is interrupted by the train pulling to a halt. "We can't be there already?" Harriet asks. Draco looks out of the window. "Looks like it, that was quicker than I thought." Draco says. "Must of been because we were lost in conversation." Harriet says with a giggle. "Yeah I guess. Want me to walk with you?" Draco asks.
"Sure." Harriet says as she goes to collect her stuff. "It's ok, they get sent to our dorms after the sorting." Draco says. "Ohh." Harriet says, leaves them be as she joins Draco on the platform where they and the rest of the first years are greeted by this giant hairy man who escorts them to the castle by crossing a lake.
Of course Harriet & Draco stay in the same boat as everyone is taking in the view of castle, everyone is in Aww over the castle. Before long, they are escorted indoors to the entrance of these grand tall doors where they are greeted by a oldish lady with a witches hat on. "We are almost ready for you. I want you all to form a nice group as we walk in and stay put where I leave you until I call your name to be sorted ok." The woman says. "I said is that ok?" The woman asks again. "Yes, Professor." Everyone says.
After not a long wait, all the first years are escorted down the great hall ready to be sorted into their houses. After some names were shouted out, Draco is then shouted up. He smiles at you before the hat barely touches his head before it bellows his house. "SLYTHERIN!" The hat says. The Slytherin table clap however none of the other tables join in. Next up is Harriet. She walks up to be sorted as the hat is placed on her head. It takes a while to figure out.
"Ohhhh, you are difficult. You could be beneficial to each house. But I'm sensing a gravitation more to... HUFFLEPUFF!" The hat says. As Harriet stands up and look over to Draco to see he is avoiding eye contact with her. She walks over to the Hufflepuff table and sits next to this small girl with brown hair.
"I'm Susan, Susan Bones and this is Hannah. Welcome to hufflepuff." Susan says. "Thank you, I'm Harriet." She says as she shakes Susan's then Hannah's hand. Harriet glances over at the Slytherin table to see that Draco was talking to a girl. She suddenly doesn't feel hungry anymore. "Everything ok?" Hannah asks. "Yeah, just not hungry." Harriet says as she takes a drink of pumpkin juice.
After dinner, the prefects escort us to our common rooms. The hufflepuff common room is beautiful, it's so light considering it's underground. As you enter into the common room it's almost like you enter through a tunnel which looks like this:
