Rewrite The World For You (Draco x Reader)

Chapter 2 (The Sorting Hat)

THE SORTING CEREMONY

The event of sorting the first year into their houses went exactly as the story goes. Harry, Ron, and Hermione were sorted into Gryffindor as expected.

Everyone else was anxious about what house they'd be sorted in, mumbling words of doubt as they pondered what house they'd end up in. But amongst the crowd of the first year, Y/N stood calmly while smiling at them in awe.

While everyone was worrying about what house they'd be sorted in, Y/N was busy thinking about how adorable everyone looked at age eleven. She wasn't worried at all for them as she knew exactly what house they'd end up in. She also knew that they'd be alright and that they'd represent their house proudly.

Finally, the time for Y/N to be sorted came as Professor McGonagall called out loudly, "Willow, Serene!"

Y/N snapped out of her thoughts and made her way to the stool before sitting down on it. She never thought she'd suddenly be anticipating what house she'd be sorted in.

She was nervous but also excited to know what house she was in. All eyes were on her as they all waited for the Sorting Hat to say something but it stayed silent for longer than was necessary before he hummed in contemplation.

"Interesting... Quite special this one, indeed," the Hat said which made more people interested in Y/N.

It had been so long since the last time a student had made the Sorting Hat speechless and the last time they checked, it was almost as old as Professor McGonagall.

"It's very rare to see a student who has all the house's traits." The hat comment.

"...Would not hesitate to sacrifice herself for others, overcome obstacles with any means necessary," the hat evaluated Y/N as he continued to list down her traits, "has a great sense of empathy and immense curiosity of the world around her. Hmmm, quite difficult, indeed..."

The Great Hall burst into a whispering court as the students whispered among themselves about Y/N once more.

Even Y/N was getting a little anxious now, not from the students' speculations about her but rather worried about what house she'd end up in or NOT at all.

"You act like a Gryffindor, heart like a Hufflepuff, mind like a Slytherin, and think like a Ravenclaw... I know– RAVENCLAW!" The Sorting Hat concluded.

Then the Great Hall burst into applause as they welcomed Y/N into the Ravenclaw house. Though, if she were to be honest, Y/N was a bit disappointed with her sorting as she much preferred to be in Gryffindor so she could be in the same house as the Golden Trio.

If it's not that then she had hoped that she would maybe be in Slytherin where Draco was. But alas, she was sorted into the house of wits.

But her disappointment quickly vanished when she entered her house's common room. It was absolutely stunning and elegant with the room and interior a mixture of white and blue, the ceiling was twinkling with stars as if there were no roof at all and the window showed the spectacular view of Hogwarts from above.

The tour only got better as they climbed down to their dorm rooms and were shown where they would stay. When Y/N entered, she was pleased to see how spacious and organized the room was for four people to live together.

The beds weren't like Y/N had expected as it wasn't four-posted like the ones that can be seen in Gryffindor but rather they were in bunk beds. It's alright, Y/N thought it made the room much neater and wider with space.

It didn't take long for Y/N to settle into her new Hogwarts life. Everyone was excited amongst the first year but none were more excited than Y/N herself. This was not only a new school experience for her but also the fact that it was even possible. She was someone from another world, after all.
