Who Would Have Thought?

By: M14Mouse

Who would have thought? Definitely not gran or Uncle Algie. Their houses were Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. That I would be come a part of Gryffindor. I would lie awake some nights, just wondering how or why. I mean, come on. I know I am not the brightest person in the world. Definitely, not the one with the best memory. When I put of the sorting hat, I almost positive I would become a Hufflepuff. But a full minute later, the sorting hat say nothing. It was silent. It was almost if the hat was looking for something. A second later, the hat shouted out Gryffindor. Before I took off the hat, I ask why.

The hat reply......You will see.

But it is not like I am complaining or anything, I am never been happier. I have great friends that forgive me for losing my toad or melting my cauldron for the hundredth time. Of course, it would probably help if Professor Snape was turn into a rabbit or something. Then I probably would have a decent grade in Potions. In any case, I still have Herbology as my best subject. Perhaps, it becausee I enjoy the feel of dirt between my fingers or the fact, the knowledge of herbology does not vanish when I leave.

Of course, it were if you are Hermione. I would have nothing to worry about. She is so smart and nice. On the first day, she try to help me to find Trevor on the train. Sometimes, I wonder where Trevor disappear too. I mean, I can be holding him one minute and he is gone the next minute. Maybe he has gift I don't know about. Anyway, I forgot where I was. Oh, yes, I was talking about Ron. Wait a moment, maybe it was Hermione. Oh, dear.

Ok, Ron is probably the most supportive guy you will ever meet. He help you in second unless you are part of Slytherin. Then he would express his more interesting opinions especially about Draco. Draco is probably the biggest bully in the school. He always has to pick on someone like Hermione has muggle parents or Ron's hand-down robes or Harry's lack of parents. Now, Harry is one of the bravest guys I ever have pledge of knowing. He stands up for his friends as well as his enemies even if it is Who-Should-Not-Be-Named. I remember when he said, "You're worth twelve of Malfory." He never know how that make me feel.

I wish I could have support him more after the Triwizard tournament. I never seen such a look on his face. The look hit so close to home. It almost wish I could tell him about my parents. I know he would understand and maybe even help him come to term what happen. But like I said I did not support him enough. Sometimes, I worry if my parents would have been proud of me. I really don't know but in my heart, I would said yes.

Oh, dear. Fred and George are trying give me a piece of oddly shape candy. Also, they have that look in their eyes. I just hope it does not turn me into a bird this time. Better to put an end my musings. Who would have thought that Neville Longbroom would be good at Herbology and become a Gryffindor. No one....not even me.

The End
