Albus Potter had boarded the train along with his brother, James. He chose to sit in the first empty compartment he could find. It had been hard saying goodbye to his parents and younger sister, whith whom he was so close to, but he found that the exciment that crrowded arround the place was an easy distraction.
He looked out the window, easily spotted his family in the crowd. not wanting to look any longer he looked away. Just then he heard someone coming in the compartment to join him. "hello albus" said james, " what are you doing all alone?" Albus looked to his feet embaressed to tell his older brother that he hadnt made any friends yet. "no reason." he mumbled."
well i would suspect a hufflepuff like you to have plenty of people to sit with!" James grabbed ahold of albus's arm and steered him out of the compartment. "come on, and we will go find them! im sure there around here..." James ignored albus's protest and dragged him along the corridors of the train. "JAMES STOP!" surprised by his younger brothers outburst james turned around to look at albus
and asked "why? you got friends dont you?" albus looked away, tears in his eyes. how could he tell his brother that no, he had none. His brother who had to have been the most popular gryffindor here. he couldnt do it. Albus ran. he ran all the way to the end of the train, and into the last compartment. he flung himself onto the bench and unable to hold it in any longer he cried.
a short one shot about albus boarding the train his second year, may become more but might not.
