Early Years: Being the youngest child is usually an amazing thing. The youngest kids get the most attention, the most praise, the most everything. But when you're the younger of twins, even if you're the youngest child, isn't good at all. In fact, it's one of the worst things ever, at least for Evander Yaxley it is. Evander is almost always forgotten, by both his parents most of the time. His mother remembers about him more than his father does, at least.

To his father, Cronis is the only one that matters. Cronis is the heir after all, and therefore the more important one of the two of them. If only he'd been born a couple of minutes after Evander.. Then things would be different. But then again, it was better that he wasn't the heir, otherwise he'd have to deal with all the things Cronis has to deal with because of their father. But that didn't mean that Evander was content with being ignored basically all the time because he wasn't the heir to the Yaxley line. It wasn't fair.

Since they were little, Cronis had always been the stronger one of the two of them, the more athletic one, the more handsome one, the more outgoing one. Evander liked to stick to the background, not be noticed too much but now he hated it. He was always in Cronis' shadow and was always expected to act like him. 

Since no one paid much attention to him, Evander was usually going off on his own, doing his own little things. He started getting into Muggle things, of course he kept it a secret from everyone, knowing that that would get him attention but not in a good way. He started having muggle, muggleborn, and halfblood friends that he knew his parents wouldn't approve of if they knew they were anything but Purebloods, but as he got older Evander slowly stopped caring about what they thought.

Obviously though, he didn't stop caring enough to not keep them hidden from his family. If any of his friends came to his home, Evander would say they were Purebloods, and his friends would act as much as a Pureblood as they could until they were left alone. Which obviously, happened quickly enough. 

By the time he and Cronis were eleven, Evander had lost most of his hope of ever getting enough attention from anyone. He'd started to settle for being in the shadow of his brother. But when they received their Hogwarts letters, Evander saw an opportunity for doing something that would make his father extremely proud of him. And that was being sorted into Slytherin. 

He only hoped that he had what it took to be one.

Hogwarts Years: The ride on the Hogwarts Express to the castle was an eternal one to the boy. He wanted to get there quickly and be sorted into the House that would finally make his parents, his father more specifically, proud of him. But there was also a bit of worry and fear within him that wanted the ride to last forever so he wouldn't make it to the castle. He was afraid that he wouldn't be sorted into Slytherin, or even worse, that he would be sorted into Gryffindor.

He knew how much his father wouldn't like it if one of his sons was a Gryffindor. Of course, since he was already kind of a disappointment, at least that's what he thought, it wouldn't be much more of a disappointment if he was sorted into Gryffindor. He was glad that he and Cronis were some of the last people to be sorted, at least he could get a chance to be calm enough to be sorted correctly.

Because that made much of a difference.

It didn't seem to take too long for the list to reach the Y's and Evander's breath caught in his throat when Cronis was called. He could tell his brother was nervous and he gave him a reassuring smile as he sat down and the Sorting Hat was placed on his head. After a few moments, the Hat called out "SLYTHERIN!" for Cronis and bursts of claps and cheers came from the Slytherin table as his brother moved from the chair and toward the table.

Evander held his hands tightly as he waited for the next name, his name, to be called. He moved rather stiffly to the chair where he would sit and have the Hat placed on his head. As the Hat sifted through his memories, he had trouble choosing what house to place Evander in. He had Slytherin traits, but he also had Ravenclaw traits. Evander's heart fluttered happily when the Sorting Hat mentioned that he would fit rather well in Slytherin, but it quickly sank when he heard, "RAVENCLAW!" being called out.

His mind blocked out the cheers from the Ravenclaw table as he moved off the seat and walked toward it. He glanced at the Slytherin table, looking for his brother's face. His heart sank further when he saw the sad smile on Cronis' face and Evander felt like crying. Getting sorted into Slytherin was his last hope, and now it was gone. The next day, the boys received a letter from their parents congratulating Cronis on his getting sorted into Slytherin. Most of the letter was about Cronis and how proud their parents were of him, except for on line where his father vaguely congratulated him.

As the years passed, that one letter and line never left Evander's head. He'd finally given up on making his parents as proud of him as they were of Cronis. Instead he began to focus more on his studies and getting good grades. The hope of his parents finally being proud of him was there, just really deep and it didn't matter too much to him anymore. He spent a lot of his time with Kit Avery who was a year younger than him, but was his best friend since they were younger.

Now, the only thing he wants to accomplish in his last year of school is get great grades on his NEWTs, and graduate.
