Chapter Two: Late Night (It’s Okay)
This is my home, it's where i reside
Though i rarely sleep at night
It's where i belong, I feel it inside
The coldest place for me to hide
A little bit wrong a little bit right
I can barely see the light
I think I can dance and probably fly
But i can't bring myself to try
It’s okay, it's okay
The shock had only barely worn off, but Albus still couldn’t bring himself to sleep. He’d been sorted into Ravenclaw, of all places. And Scorpius, too! Now they were both the odd ones out. A family of Gryffindors, and a family of Slytherins.... each with a child in Ravenclaw. Though James had seemed disappointed, the rest of his family seemed supportive and happy for him. Scorpius had taken it a far harder; he seemed she’ll shocked and barely ate. Only Albus had been able to break him out of it, calmly telling him the truth; that the houses didn’t matter. The day everyone puts stock in what it ‘means’ to be in a house is the day another Voldemort rises up. Scorpius was soundly asleep in his bed now, and Albus sat in a window seat, overlooking the dark grounds. Tiredness began to creep over him; he decided he’d write his parents tomorrow.
