Aiden watched cautiously as Professor McGonagall placed a old worn out hat on some girl's head.
"Hufflepuff!"
He really didn't understand this situation but he tried his best to just go with the flow.
The giant room he was in, the Great Hall, as they called it had three long tables. The Ravenclaw table on the far left, the Hufflepuff table in the far right and the Gryffindor table in the middle. It was not difficult to see which house was the favored one.
"Granger, Hermione!" the elderly woman called.
A young brunette girl walked up to the stoll.
"Gryffindor!"
The hall erupted into cheers. It was strange. Nobody would cheer if someone was placed in Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff.
Just Gryffindor.
"Weasley, Ronald!"
"He's at his brother's wedding. He and his brothers will come back tomorrow." Dumbledore said, Aiden frowned at the hidden anger at that statement.
"Potter, Harry!"
Aiden looked around confused. Was there someone here with the same last name as his?
Dumbledore cleared his throat, "he is no longer with us."
A sad silence fell over the room. Did this Harry person die?
"Potter, Aiden!"
Aiden slowly made his way to the stoll. He cast a glance at the Headmaster, silently demanding to be told more of this 'Harry' figure. That name sounded faintly familiar. He just for the life of him couldn't remember why.
"I know why."
Aiden looked around confused. Who said that?
"It's me. The hat."
"You can talk?" Aiden mumbled weakly. Hats can apparently talk now! What's next? His clothes?
"No, not unless you charm them to do so." the hate chuckled.
"So, who is this Harry boy?" Aiden asked curiously.
"He was your twin brother. He died when you both were babies. Or so everyone thinks."
Aiden wanted to ask more but the hat shouted out; "Gryffindor!" and the hat was removed from his head.
A loud cheer rang through the room. Aiden made his way to the designated table and took a seat.
"Lupin-Malfoy, Draco."
The pretty blond boy who pushed Aiden in the train earlier took his place on the stoll.
Aiden frowned when he saw the Headmaster cast a invisible spell at the hat. If anyone else saw it no one said anything.
"Gryffindor."
The room cheered.
Aiden frowned at how fake this was.
Once sorting and dinner was finished Aiden followed the group to the Gryffindor common room. The first years were shown where they would sleep and then left along.
"You don't look like someone who would be placed in Gryffindor." Aiden told Draco after he gathered his courage to talk to the boy.
Draco eyed the small boy before replying.
"My father was in Gryffindor."
Aiden looked up from his unpacking. "Really? That's cool." he said lamely.
"What about you? Both your parents were Gryffindors, weren't they? My Father was friends with them."
Aiden looked surprised at that. "I didn't know that."
Draco looked shocked at that.
Aiden sat down on his bed. He couldn't help but let his eyes drift to the outside. It was raining.
"Miserable day, isn't it?" Draco sighed as he climbed onto his own bed.
"No, I love the rain. It's my favorite."
Draco found himself drawn to the small smile on the boy's lips. The lights were switched off but the moonlight cast its glow on the boy's pretty features.
He was beautiful.
Draco sighed and tucked himself into bed.
Maybe Gryffindor wouldn't be too horrible.

"Hello Ginevra, it's nice to meet you."
The young redhaired girl turned to face the dark haired girl in front of her. She had long black hair tied into an elegant bun as well as an expensive silk dress. She was a very beautiful girl indeed if not for her young age.
She was only eight. Two years younger than Ginny herself.
"Nico to meet you too. You must be Trevor's little sister."
"I guess you can call me that. But I am also your fiancee. Remember?"
Ginny's eyes widened at that. Fiancee? Her parents weren't joking when they said that then.
"My name is Faith." the girl curtseyed. "I will have your babies."
Ginny's eyes widened further. "what? Aren't we a bit young for that?"
The girl just stared blankly at Ginny, "I suppose we are. On our wedding night then."
Ginny stared at that girl. Was she serious? She, just like the rest of the Riddles, was the image of the perfect person. In Faith's case she was submissive and beautiful on top of willing to bare as many children as Ginny wanted.
"Why you? Why not one of your brothers?" Ginny asked, confused on the reason why she would be engaged to a girl when Ron could have married her or Ginny could have married one of Faith's brothers.
The redhead immediately felt guilty when she saw the hurt flash in the girl's pretty blue eyes.
"Do you not like me? Am I not good enough?"
"No! Nothing like that! I-I was just… Nevermind. It isn't important." Ginny said.
The girl offered Ginny a smile. "I hope I get to see a lot more of you. I would like to get to know you better."
"Me too." Ginny smiled back.

Ron frowned. He, Fred, George, and Percy were on their way to Hogwarts. His first year and he had to miss his first day. The day he was supposed to get sorted!
He was also upset about the wedding. He had no complaints about gay marriage. He did have complaints about arranged marriage. Especially that fact that his brother and sister got arranged marriages to filthy rich and beautiful people.
He wanted to marry into money and power! And having a gorgeous trophy wife wouldn't hurt either.
"You know, scowling is bad for your skin."
Ron growled at the boy in the car with them. Dimitri Riddle had offered to drop them off at the train station for some reason.
Dimitri was quite pretty as well. He was as perfect as the rest of his family. Maybe…?
"Hey, Dimitri! Would you marry me? I mean our brothers and our sister are already so…"
Dimitri frowned at him. "now why would I do something like that?"
"We would be great together."
"No. Your family has already married two of my siblings, besides, I'm already engaged."
Ron frowned, "you are? To who? I'm probably much handsomer than him."
"You are not. And I do not see how who I am marrying affects you."
"Come on, tell me his name! Or her name."
"It's a him and his name is Draco Lupin-Malfoy."
Ron frowned at that. He had seen Draco before. That boy was loaded as well on top of him being quite stunningly beautiful.
"That's no fair! He's already rich!"
"So you admit you only want to marry me for my money?"
"Err… no?"
Dimitri frowned. "We will never have this conversation again. Driver, stop! I wish to leave now."
The car pulled over. The door opened with a man with an umbrella waiting outside. Dimitri got out.
"I'm sorry!" Ron called.
Dimitri ignored the boy and walked away with the man in the umbrella. He hated people like Ron. They thought of him and his siblings as tools to power and wealth.
He bit his lip. "take me home."

Trevor attempted to regain his breath as Charlie pulled away. He let his arms fall from around the redheads neck and his legs fall from Charlie's bare waist.
"That was… incredible." Charlie told the boy as he pressed soft kisses around his lover's face.
"Was I your first?" Trevor asked as Charlie fell to the side.
"Yes. Was it good for you?"
Trevor thought for a second as he curled up, half on top of the other boy. "It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be."
Charlie frowned as an unpleasant thought ran through his head. "Who was your first?"
"You mean who… you know… raped me?"
Charlie nodded guiltily.
"It was someone who wanted me dead. He would have killed me if he had the chance. But since I am someone so well known he couldn't kill me without any questions asked."
Charlie squeezed the boy's hand tightly.
"I was only eleven at the time. My first year and last year at Hogwarts. He just did it and then threw me aside like I was trash. I tried to tell a teacher but the second I tried I changed into a frog before I could say anything. The entire Slytherin house found out what happened but they could do nothing. A spell or something prevented them. We wreaked havoc trying to attain justice but… he got rid of the Slytherin house the next year and expelled all of us."
"A-are you talking about Dumbledore?"
"It's too late to do anything. It happened over ten years ago. All charges would have been dropped. Besides, there is no evidence."
Charlie wrapped the boy in his arms and pressed his lips against his forehead. "I will avenge you. I promise."
"No need. I'm your wife now. I have no desire to dwell in the past. Now either you put a baby in my stomach or I'm going to sleep."

"You must be Ron."
Aiden blinked sleepily as a soaking wet redhead stumbled in.
Dean quickly went to aid the boy but was pushed aside in a fit of anger.
"Sorry mate, just upset."
"Do you need help?" Draco asked.
"Sure, just murder one Draco Malfoy for me and hide his body."
"Why?"
"I want his fiance."
"Well sorry but I don't have a fiance."
Ron looked up surprised. "Malfoy!"
"It's Lupin-Malfoy."
"Whatever."
"I'm going back to sleep. Please be quiet." Draco said.
Aiden frowned at that. "Why do you think he has a fiance?"
"His fiance told me."
Draco's eyes widened. "You don't mean my grandfather's request got through."
"It did, you are the next Mr. Riddle. You get to have all his little man babies and everything."
"Never say that again."
Ron just smirked at him.

Aiden never expected classes to be so challenging. He tried his best to understand but it didn't help that they used words he didn't understand like Muggles or ingredients; like how was he supposed to know what a unicorn tail looked like in contrast to a pegasus tail?
His partner did most of the work, much to Aiden's shame. He hated being so useless and making his partner do all the work. It just wasn't him.
Draco didn't seem to mind that much though. The boy seemed at ease in a potions room. He was really talented. Aiden couldn't help but be thankful for having Draco as his partner.
"No, you need to turn it like this. That's good. Make the slices thinner."
Aiden complied to Draco's instructions.
"Very good."
Aiden looked up shocked as the teacher, Professor Severus Black, walked by. His cold eyes glaring at everyone as if he was daring them to mess up.
"Those are good. Pour them in now. Carefully though."
Aiden gently poured the concoction he just created into the large caldron. Draco stirred it slowly three times before putting the wooden spoon away and stepping back.
"Professor Black! We're done!" Draco said.
Black walked up to the caldron and dropped a stone in it. When he pulled it out the stone was glowing with a soft blue glow.
"Very good. You both pass."
Aiden couldn't help but smile at Draco. Their eye's meeting for a second before they turned away blushing.

Okay guys, thats all for now, tell me what you think.
I have been getting a lot of complaints about Sy, Tom and Gellert moments. I understand that you want more. I kind of want more as well.
Anyway please tell me if you want me to write a side story with all the cute little moments between the three dark lords or if you want me to just post it at the end of the chapters.
I'll put one here now.

Sy is 5, Tom is 7
:Mommy! Look at what I made!:
Gellert looked up just in time for a five year old to jump on him. Sy held up a golden locket and handed it to the man. He grinned and waited for Gellert to reply.
The Dark Lord lifted the rectangle shaped locket and opened it. On the left side was an image of Tom staring blankly ahead. He wasn't smiling though the boy most likely wouldn't smile if someone was taking his picture.
Underneath the image was the word 'Tom' engraved neatly in cursive.
The right side had an image of Sy. The boy was grinning like there was no tomorrow. He had one of his precious dolls in his arms.
On top of the picture was the word 'Syren' engraved neatly in cursive.
"H-how did you make this?" Gellert wondered. "It's beautiful."
"That's a secret." Tom said as he climbed onto Gellert's lap. The boy took the locket and clipped it around his mother's neck.
:Now we can always be near your heart.: Sy grinned as he closed the locket.
Gellert smiled at the two boys. They really were quite sweet even if they would never admit it.
Sy pressed his lips to Gellert's cheek. :Mommy?:
"Hmm?"
:Why aren't you married?:
"You can't ask that!" Tom hissed at Sy. "It's rude."
Gellert just smiled. "No, it's alright. I'm not married because I don't need anyone except you two in my life."
Tom frowned at that. "that's sad. Who will you kiss then?"
Gellert responded by kissing Tom and Sy on the cheek.
"That doesn't count! Who will be our daddy then?"
Gellert suddenly got a sad look in his eyes. He covered it up pretty quickly but both Sy and Tom caught it.
"Mommy?" Tom whispered. "don't be sad. I'm sorry."
Gellert frowned at that. "I'm fine. Really. Who wants cookie dough?"
Sy nodded his little head at that and ran off towards the kitchen. Tom stayed behind and frowned. He grabbed Gellert's shirt and looked up at him with wide dark blue eyes.
"I'm fine Tom."
"I'm sorry. I don't need a daddy. As long as I have Sy and you I'm perfectly happy .Okay? I promise."
Gellert couldn't help but smile at that.
"Come on. Let's assess the damage Sy is causing right now."

Okay, so review and tell me your thoughts cause you love me and I have cookies. I also stole all of Sy's cookie dough and will frame it on you unless you review. Do you really want an angry Sy and Tom on your tail?
