Hogwarts Winter Games I: Biathlon

New Friends

The sun was shining brightly as Scorpius walked towards his father and little sister, he had just finished his third year at Hogwarts and was looking forward to the summer.

"Hello, son," Draco greeted as he walked towards him with a smile. "How was term?"

"SCORPIUS!" Naomi said, jumping into her brothers arms, the excited nine-year-old had gotten slightly bigger and heavier since her brother saw her last, causing him to step back at the sudden surprising impact.

Scorpius smiled, "Hey Naos," he said softly kissing his sister on the cheek and putting her down on the platform. "Have you been going over your nouns and adjectives?"

Naomi rolled her eyes at her brother but nodded anyway causing him to grin widely.

"School was good," he said turning back to hi father. "Bella said to tell you that she's going to Asher's and she'll be home tomorrow."

Draco nodded, not expressing his disappointment of his eldest daughter not coming home to his son, "Alright then, let's go home."

"Scorp! Scorp!" Lily called excitedly running after the three Malfoy's. Scorpius stopped and turned around, only seeing long red hair before falling back on the platform with an excited Lily on top of him. Her arms were strongly wrapped around his neck and her face pushed into his shoulder upon the impact of the platform.

Scorpius got to his feet with the younger girl still hugging him tightly. He started laughing when the scared eleven-year-old refused to let go, "Hey Lily, you can let go of me now."

Lily, opening her eyes, sheepishly let her brother's best friend go and smiled at him, "That's what you get for not saying goodbye to me!"

Naomi went over to the red-haired girl who jumped on her brother and smiled. "I know you!" she exclaimed, proudly, "You're Lily!"

Lily laughed, "And your Scorpius' sister, Naomi!"

Surprisingly to Lily, and Draco, Naomi wrapped her arms around the girls waist. Lily hugged her back and Naomi looked up at her smiling, "I like you!"

"I like you too," Lily said laughing a little and squatting down to the girls height, despite their only being two years age difference Naomi was a good two feet shorter than Lily. "How about you come over with Scorpius when he and Al get together the summer and we can bug them all day?"

Naomi grinned. "That would be wonderful we can be obstreperous!"

Lily looked at Naomi with a weird expression on her face causing the younger girl to burst into giggles.

Scorpius picked up on Lily's confusion and smiled to himself. "It means noisy and hard to get rid of."

Lily nodded with a grin and before she could say anything else she heard the calling of her mother's voice. "I gotta go!" she said, smiling, "I'll owl you!"

Naomi waved at the older girl and smiled to herself, I think I just made a friend she thought happily as she followed her brother and father to the fireplaces just outside of the platform.
