Hufflepuff. It was a nice word. Huff-le-puff! See? A very nice word! And everyone seemed so friendly, judging by the way people were greeting other people. And there were so many smiles around the place. It made him happy!

If only Anya had been sorted into this house as well. But he wasn't going to complain about that. She could be in that red house. He was now closer to the kitchens and food, according to that book. She was the one missing out now.

Alec continued walking until he reached a fairly empty spot on the table. He squished himself into it and looked around. Now that the Sorting nerves were gone, he could finally see how big it was! Sheesh! Was it always this huge?And... when was the food getting here? He was starving!




Oh look! Wasn't that girl... familiar? Yes, she was! If Alec remembered clearly, it was that girl he had met on the train. The one who was crying. But then he remembered her getting happier afterwards. Yes, it was that same girl.

Alec stood up and wandered over towards... what was her name? It began with an 'A' hadn't it? Amy? No. Anna? No. Al... It was Al-something. ALYSSA! That's it! Alec grinned as he squishes himself down on the empty seat next to her. "Hey train buddy!" he said, giving the girl a single wave of his hand, "Looks like we're in the same house now!"




And then this happened.

Alec blinked. Was that Adeline? Adeline Holiday? The same girl he had met in the ice cream store down Diagon Alley? And then again on the platform? And then again on the train corridor. Man, that was an awkward meet-up.

Oh right. The girl had wanted to be in Ravenclaw and now... here she was. In Hufflepuff. Well, it wasn't so bad! Everyone was nice! And that's exactly what she had wanted hadn't she? She wanted to be around nice, friendly people. How much nicer can it get than the house she had been sorted into?

But Alec wasn't going to say this to the girl. Instead, he ruffled up his hair slightly and grinned at the girl. "Turns out you do have friends in Hufflepuff..." Yes, that was his way of greeting her.




Hearing someone introduce themselves to anyone and everyone made Alec turn his head. He looked at the boy carefully. Wasn't this the same boy who had been sorted alongside him? Yes? He distinctly remembered the boy being sorted and Alec wondering how someone so tall can be an eleven year old.

Alec grinned at the boy as he walked up to him and sat down in a seat opposite him. The boy seemed nice. But then again, he was in the nicest house there is. "Hey!" he said, "Nice to meet you Oscar. I'm Alec, Alec Summers."




Alec sat there, getting slightly bored. True, he wasn't around some of his old friends or his bestest friend in the entire world... but there were plenty of people he could meet right here. New friends. People he had never met ever before. Only problem was... he didn't know who to say hi to.

Alec's grey-blue eyes searched around until... they rested on a girl sitting on her own. She seemed a bit older than him, unless she was one of those people who looked older than they actually are. Either way, he was going to pluck up the courage and go up to her.

So, the eleven year old stood up and walked over towards the girl. He sat down opposite her and smiled. Yes, she could be in his year but just look older. "Hey!" he said, giving the girl a single wave, "Erm, i'm Alec, Alec Summers."




Alec blinked again. There was another person who didn't seem to like that manky old hat's decision. Weird. He had thought everyone wanted to be in this house. Maybe people just needed some time to adjust. Either way, it was wrong wrong wrong to be shouting off about it here.

But he was going to show this boy that it wasn't so bad to be a... badger? Did Hufflepuffs turn into badgers at night? And the other houses turned into their own animals as well? But he didn't want to turn into a badger! He wanted to be a normal human boy!

Alec ruffled his hair before walking up to the boy. He recognised him from the Sorting Ceremony. He had just got Sorted alongside him, hadn't he? He did look young enough to have been sorted right now. "Hey, it's not so bad being a badger," he said, smiling at the boy, "We're all nice people here!" Yes. Everyone had been nice to him here already.


Daisy looked up, smiling; a new arrival had joined the table, this time looking a lot more happy than the last ungrateful little boy who in Daisy's opinion, probably didn't deserve to be in Hufflepuff with the nice people if he was like that. She recognised the boy a little, probably from the train or the platform.

He sat down in an empty spot nearby Daisy, who had picked a spot not close to anyone in particular, but that was filled up quickly. She leaned over and grinned to the new arrival, whose face reminded her of her own cousins a little.
'Hey,' she smiled, fork still in mid-air, 'welcome to Hufflepuff, the best house,' she laughed, holding out her free hand, 'I'm Daisy Tucker.'
