Disclaimer- I own nothing but Olivia.

Chapter 1

A whistle blew loudly as Olivia Langdon traipsed her way through the swarming masses of muggles at King's Cross Station, all trying to board the train.

"Damn muggles." Liv muttered under her breath as a fat old man bumped her trunk, almost taking her over with it. As soon as she righted herself, she stood face to face with the red brick wall between platforms nine and ten. Taking a step back, Liv turned her trolley to face the barrier. She pushed her trunk and caged owl up to the wall and then straight through it. Glancing up, Olivia took in the sign that read "Platform 9 ¾" as well as a massive scarlet steam engine with the words Hogwarts Express plastered across the front. The very next second, a mass of flaming red hair engulfed her face and she was squeezed into a painfully tight hug. Brushing the hair out of her eyes, she clumsily returned the hug.

Stepping back, the red haired girl squealed, "Oh Liv, I've missed you so much! It's so good to be finally going back."

"We saw each other last month!" Liv laughed, shaking her head at Lily's ever-present enthusiasm. "How is your family?" She asked, even though she knew exactly the answer Lily was going to give.

"Mum and Dad are good, but Petunia's still as irritating as ever." Liv shook her head at her friend's predictability.

"Glad to hear it. Come on, let's go find Riley." Liv suggested, chuckling.

Together, they pulled their trunks over to the train and Liv stepped back to allow Lily to go first. Lily yanked her trunk up the stairs, and it banged loudly as it dropped against each step. Liv laughed as she casually leaned against her own trunk, enjoying the spectacle that was Lily's complete lack of upper body strength. Suddenly, Liv's trunk disappeared from beneath her arm and could feel herself falling in its wake. Stepping her foot out just in time, Liv straightened to see a mane of shaggy black hair and her trunk making its way up the steps without her. 'Mmmmm. Break me off a piece of that.' Liv thought crudely, watching as the boy's (more like man's) muscles flexed beneath his shirt. She quickly followed him onto the train and into the compartment that Lily had claimed. He pushed the trunk up on the rack as Liv watched, a predatory look making her striking features almost frightening. Resisting the urge to jump him on the spot, Liv settled for a sweet, "Thank you."

"You're welcome," he replied in a deep voice, every bit as sexy as Liv had imagined. Finally, he turned around and Liv practically lost her breakfast all over the floor.

"Black?"

"See you around, Liv" He said seductively, brushing past her as he left their compartment. Liv slumped into the seat, feeling both excited and furious. On one hand, Liv hadn't had such powerful feelings for a boy since as far back as the beginning of sixth year. But she had a hard time swallowing that considering the other powerful feeling she harbored for him was nothing less than unadulterated loathing. She mentally berated herself for thinking such thoughts of a boy she could hardly stand.

"Liv?" Lily asked, staring at her friend in mild concern.

"Huh?"

"Do you want to go find Riley? The trains about to leave," Lily replied, glancing at her watch.

"Oh! Right, sure." Liv followed Lily, leaving thoughts of Sirius Black in the compartment behind her.

Just down the corridor, Lily and Liv came across Riley, who was sitting in a compartment with only one other occupant, whose back was turned. 'This bloke must be pretty cute or Riley would not be blushing like that.' Liv thought, smiling to herself.

Lily opened the door, but the two seemed not to notice, they were deep in conversation.

"Ahem." Lily cleared her throat loudly.

Both occupants jumped in surprise. Riley looked up and blushed even more deeply, if that was even possible. The boy she was talking to turned around and faced the girls, flushing a deep scarlet that gave Riley a run for her money.

"Hello, Remus." Liv said, breaking the awkward silence.

"Hi Lily, Liv." He replied quietly, still blushing like mad.

"Don't you two look cozy." Liv stated bluntly smiling at the pair while subtly (at least she thought so) winking at Riley, who rolled her eyes.

"We have a compartment, Riley. Do you want to join us?" Lily asked politely.

"Oh, yeah. Sure. See you, Remus." Riley reluctantly bade goodbye. She grasped her trunk and followed her friends to their compartment.

They settled in for the long train ride, already trading stories from the last few weeks of their summer holiday. After spending the majority of the summer at Liv's father's estate, Lily and Riley had spent the rest of the summer with their families, enjoying the remaining time together before the start of term.

Pushing the slight twinge of jealousy away, Liv told her friends about the cute French bloke she had met while strolling along St. Tropez. She had accompanied her father on a business trip to France, but because he had to work most of the time, she had found entertainment elsewhere. Despite spending her first few days at the diving region of L'lle de Riou, Marseille, which was where her father was working, she traveled alone to the French Riviera for the remainder of her trip. This was where she met Adrien

"Ooer!" Lily exhaled, bouncing slightly in her seat.

"Was he fit?" Riley asked, leaning towards Liv as if it were a matter of life and death.

"Beyond fit." Liv answered.

"How long did you two…you know?" Lily asked, smiling slyly and wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.

"'Bout two weeks." Liv replied, laughing.

"Are you still—together?" Lily questioned skeptically, knowing all too well that long distance relationships never worked.

"Hell no. He was French."

Lily and Riley nodded as if that answered their question.


"Best. Feast. Ever." Riley sighed as she climbed into her four-poster bed. Liv laughed to herself. Riley was one of the smallest girls of their year, standing just over five foot two, but she could probably eat an elephant if she put her mind to it.

Lily and Liv crawled into their respective beds and immediately felt the effects of the feast overtaking them. Liv drifted to sleep, thinking dreamily about snogging Adrien on the beach in St. Tropez.


A/N: So I know that I haven't updated this story in like two years, but I was bored and I decided that if I was going to put my name on it, it had to be at least somewhat decent. So, I totally revised this chapter, as well as the plot and the personalities of the characters. I hope you like it! I'm working on all the others so they should be up soon too. PLEASE review!
