As Peter sat in silence alongside the rest of the now unfrozen students, all that he think about was how extremely unfair this whole thing had become. He hadn't even been here a day and yet he was already being punished! And for what? Having their quiet compartment interrupted by a group of fighting students? It was ridiculous! What would his mother say? He visibly shuddered at the thought that she might end up sending him a howler the next morning. Oh that would certainly be embarrassing. 

He put the negative thoughts out of his mind as the train pulled into the station. He didn't wish to spoil what his parents called one of the most magical moments of his life, which was really saying something considering the world in which he lived. Besides, the feast was fact approaching! He gazed open mouthed as the boats drifted towards the brightly lit castle. The castle was a miraculous sight, illuminating the world of the lake. It certainly beat anything Peter had ever seen. The inside was even grander, with the floating torches and the mass of portraits, he didn't know where to look. Well he did when he entered the great hall anyway! He decided to keep his eyes fixated to the front rather than catch the eyes of all of the students gazing at the first year students. 

Honestly he wasn't that surprised when the old withered hat shouted out that he was to be put into Hufflepuff. His whole family on his father's side had been Hufflepuffs afterall, and he knew very well that he didn't really have any of the qualities that the rest of the houses seemed to have. He groaned however as he walked away from the tables and instead towards the back of the room towards where Professor Quinn stood. He reluctantly followed her and the rest of the first years down the winding corridors of the school before arriving in yet another room. 

As they waited for the arrival of the Headmistress, he approached Dani, who seemed to be glaring at the group from the sidelines. "You ok?" He asked reassuringly, standing at her side. While waiting for her response, his eyes darted around the room for Pearleane, smiling at her when he spotted her. "I hope they don't tell our parents" He confessed, speaking again to Dani. "I don't think that I'll be able to take receiving a howler!"
