Noelle bounced back in forth in line waiting for her name to be called. Excitement sketched every line on her young face. She wiggles in excitement as Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs were called out. She laughed at the girl that kept trying to correct the hat. Obviously she was in shock of it all. Then she heard it. HER name.

Noelle Summers.

Her eyes widened just a fraction of the inch. But not in fright of being in front of everyone, having them look and watch you as the hat judged where to put you. No in excitement. She eagerly rushed up to the stool to sit on it. Only she missed the stool. Missed it bad. She practically flung herself over the stool trying to get on it and landed on her face in front of the whole school.

Noelle's cheeks flushed but she bounced right back up and scrambled onto the stool that was stood back up. "I'm a little clumsy." She announced to the school. Because they were all watching. And probably laughing. She didn't care though, because THAT HAT WAS ON HER HEAD .

It didn't take but a moment and the hat yelled out. GRYFFINDOR!! Mum was right! She was in Gryffindor!!!

She toppled off the stool and fell face first on the ground again. Too excited to be embarrassed, she took off running to the red and yellow table with her arms raised high. " IM A GRYFFINDOR!!"
