"Lils, wait up. You're walking too fast!"
Lily Evans stopped and turned to her fifth year cousin, who was
dragging along her bags and brushing her dark red hair. Lily and
Amilia looked pretty much alike, except for the fact that Lily's hair
was brighter and curlier. Also, Amilia had sapphire eyes instead of
Lily's emerald eyes.

"Amilia, NEVER call me 'Lils'. I hate it," Lily huffed,
stepping onto the Hogwarts Express.

Amilia gave a little smirk as she saw a pair of twins
walking up. They were the younger sisters of James Potter. "You never
seem to mind it when James calls you 'Lils' and you hate him."

"I don't necessarily hate James," Lily sighed.

"So you like our brother, eh?" one of the twins with knee
length blonde hair asked, smiling and nudging her sister, who was
putting her light brown hair in a ponytail.

"No, I don't like him!" Lily growled. "Amilia is just making
things up around loud mouth here."

At that, the light brown haired twin scowled. "I'm not a
loud mouth. I just like to talk."

"Yeah, Chrissi. You like to talk a lot," laughed Amilia
opening the door to a compartment. "Luckily, Rori doesn't talk as
much. But you two are still known as the 'Gossiping twins'."

"We try our best," smiled Chrissi.

Just then, a girl with shoulder length brown hair walked in.
"I could hear Chrissi from the front of the train."

"Hey, Emily. Where's your brother?" Lily asked. Emily Black
was the younger sister of Sirius, one of the most popular 6th year
boys.

"Um, since when are you so worried about Sirius?" Emily
raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, she isn't worried about him, but who he hangs out with,"
Amilia started again.

"I DO NOT LIKE HIM!" Lily cornered Amilia and hit her with a
book.

"You better not like my baby!" a voice shouted from the door
where Lizzie Lupin, Remus's sister, stood. She had been dating Sirius
for about two years now.

"No, she likes our brother, not Em's," stated Chrissi.

"Shit, I do not like James!" Lily screamed again.

"Huh?" James asked as he walked in. "I heard my name."

"Yeah, because Lily is-" Rori started, but got a pillow in
her face.

"Lils, what's up with all the pillow throwing?" James
wondered, sitting across from her.

"Nothing." Lily got up and walked out of the compartment.

"Well, the Queen flower is very upset," stated Sirius as he
walked in. "What did you do, James?"

"I did nothing! Even the twins can tell you that!" James
yelled.

"Well, Prongsie is in a bad mood as well," Sirius teased,
sitting down next to Lizzie, who rested her head on his shoulder.

"Oh, so where's my baby?" joked Emily. Everyone knew she
meant Remus. Those two had dated for a year and a half now. No one
ever seemed to take in the fact that Remus's sister dated Sirius and
Sirius's sister dated Remus.

"Oh, he's greeting new Prefects." James replied, staring out
the window. "Surprised one of you didn't get it."

"Ha, like any of us even want it," Chrissi smiled.

"Why not? You could get good gossip that way," Amilia followed.
"But then again, you would probably just talk instead of doing your
job."

"Yeah, but what about you, Lizzie, or Emily?" asked Rori.

"Lizzie can't be one. It'll spoil all my fun," Sirius smiled
and hugged Lizzie.

"Okay," James sighed. "I don't know about Amilia, but Emily
would be great for it."

"Uh, why?" Emily raised an eyebrow.

"Maybe because you have a Prefect boyfriend?" Chrissi said as
if it were completely obvious.

"But she's a Black," Lizzie added.

"Yeah, no Black can ever be a Prefect!" Sirius stated. "That's
like against the law of something."

"Okay, so that rules out any possibility of Emily ever standing
a chance," Remus smirked as he walked in, giving Emily a kiss on the
cheek.

"So, Amilia, why didn't you get to be a Prefect?" Rori
questioned.

"Maybe it's because she's related to Lily Evans," joked James,
receiving a strange look from Amilia.

"But Lily is actually smart and if you haven't noticed, she is a
Prefect," Lizzie pointed out, rolling her blue eyes at him.

"Uh, maybe Amilia got the stupid genes?" Sirius suggested.

"Padfoot, I think you got that part of your family," Remus said,
throwing a pillow at him.

"Let's just drop it," Amilia sighed, looking around the
compartment. "Coolie, Lils left her bag here."

James and Sirius seemed to dive towards the bag. Emily picked it
up, "You guys just can't snoop through people's stuff," she scolded.

"Come on, Ems. Just let us see the bag," James begged, getting
down on his knees.

Sirius also got down. "I wanna see if she has a diary. I wanna know
what happens in Ms. Perfect's mind."

"I thought you all were friends with her," Chrissi said, taking
the bag from Emily.

"We are! We just wanna see what dirt she has!" exclaimed Sirius.

"That's just so mean," Amilia stated.

Just then, Peter walked in with an armload of snacks. "Okay, what
is going on in here?"

"Padfoot and Prongs are just trying to take Lily's stuff again.
Nothing unusual," Remus told him, flipping through their new DADA
book.

"You prats," Lizzie tisked and smacked and Sirius forcefully on
the head. "If only Lily knew about you all always trying to dig
through her stuff."

"Don't you even think about it," James frowned at his fraternal
twin sisters.

"Okay, really nothing new then." Peter sat down in the only seat
left, across from Amilia. Amilia sighed slightly and looked back to
where Sirius and Emily were playing tug-o'-war with Lily's bag. She
and Peter had dated for six months last year. No one really knew why
they broke up, but neither of them talked to each other anymore.

The compartment door opened. "What the bloody hell are you doing
with my bag?"

Emily and Sirius fell across the room. The bag fell on top of
Sirius. "Hell, Lily, what is in your bag?"

"It's none of your business. What were you doing with my bag?" Lily
snatched her bag up.
"We wanted to tell but James wouldn't let us," stated Rori moving her bag so Lily could sit down next to her.
"You still could have," muttered Lily, looking up and towards a smirking Amilia. Lily was now sitting in front of James
"No we couldn't James told us not to," reasoned Chrissi.
Remus laughed, "And since when did you two start listening to James?"
"Well thanks for bring that up! Now they'll never listen to me," James fake pouted.
