I walked towards the Great Hall the morning after the Welcoming Feast.  What were mother and father going to say when they found out where Marie was Sorted?  We always knew she was a tad different from us... but we failed her.  I was not sure how I was going to keep up the good Crabbe name with her being in Hufflepuff.  She was my sister and I loved her.  But that did not mean I was not disappointed in her.  I found her waiting outside of the Great Hall -- probably for me.  I went up to her and could see how worried she was and I felt myself soften slightly.  It was not necessarily her fault.  It was just who she was. 

"Hey, sis," I said to her, giving her a hug.  We were still family after all.  "You better eat some breakfast before your classes start today."  It was a Monday when term first began, so naturally, classes started immediately.

I nodded and was extremely nervous.  "Vinny... I didn't write to Mum and Dad last night," I said to him honestly.  They wanted me to and I had no idea how angry they would be with me that I did not write.  But I would much rather deal with that than with them and their reaction to me being in Hufflepuff.

I stared at Marie.  "You didn't write them?  They'll be furious," I said to her.  "Well, more furious than the outcome of the Sorting," I added as an afterthought.

I sighed.  "I know they'll be furious eithe rway," I said to him honestly.  "I just am scared, okay?  That's allowed, isn't it?" I hated how Vinny was almost taking their side of things.

I looked at Marie and put a hand on her shoulder.  "It is allowed in some families," I said to her quietly.  "You know how mother and father view fear.  You aren't supposed to be scared, Marie."  I sighed.  "But that's too much to ask from an eleven year old.  I understand, though.  It's alright.  But you can't keep avoiding them."

i sighed, knowing that my big brother was right.  "I'm no scared," I said to him defiantly, though.  "I'm just... not wanting to talk to them about it.  That's avoidance, not fear."  I had quite a vocabulary for someone my age.  "Will you help me to figure out what to say to write to them?  And when they send a letter back... you'll be there, right?"  I was not sure if I could handle reaing their rejection by myself.

I looked at my sister.  "Of course I'll help you and be there," I assured my sister.  "But you will have to figure out how to face them on your own.  It's the only way you'll get stronger."  I would help her as much as I could, but I was not going to fight her battles for her.

I knew that Vinny was just trying to be helpful, but it still hurt.  I was only eleven years old! How could I face my parents on my own without my big brother.  "Duh," I said to him, wishing I could sound smarter than that.  "I just want as much help as possible... you know how scary Dad can be."

I nodded at her.  Dad could be scary at times.  "Well, I'm sure you'll do fine in a letter," I said to her.  "Over the holiday you know I'll be there... most of the time."

I sighed; at least Vinny was being honest with me and not giving me any false hope.  Though, in all honesty, that would be nice; it was never part of my brother's demeanor.  I nodded as I thought.  "Alright... but they might end up telling you a lot of stuff, too," I said to him.  "We have to think of a way to get me back in good graces... would you mind helping me with Quidditch and schoolwork?  That way I can be the top of my class and end up making the team next year?"
