I stood in Kings Cross station waiting for my little sister, Lily. Our parents were on the platform but I had been running late and didn't feel like trying to find my mother and father in the crowd.
"Tuney!" I turned at the sound of my baby sister's voice. A flash of bright red hair tackled me in a bone-crushing hug.
"Hey Lily." I hugged my sister.
"Tune, I want you to meet my friends who are going to be staying with us for a few weeks." That's when I noticed the three boys behind Lily. "Petunia, this is James," Lily pointed to a tall good looking boy with black hair and bright brown eyes. He smiled smugly and I knew that this must be James Potter who Lily had been dating. "This is Sirius." She pointed to the boy standing beside James. He was tall with elegant looks. He had a half smile that gave him an air of non chalantly. "And this is Remus."
The tallest of the three stepped forward and smiled. He had a kind smile and his bright blue eyes sparkled making the skin around his eyes crinkle. I found myself breathless. He was gorgeous. I could see Lily's mouth moving but didn't hear her.
"Petunia?"
"What? Oh, sorry." Lily laughed and took my hand.
"I said come on! I want to go home so I can tell you all about this year." She led our group out to the car.
"Wait a second how are we all getting home? The car on seats six." I said.
"We can just apparate." James said.
"Apparate?"
"Yeah, it's kind of like teleportation." Remus explained. "Would you like to come with me? All you will have to do is hold on to my arm." He held out his arm to me and Lily was smiling and nodding to me.
"Come on, Tune. It'll be fun and you won't miss anything." I looked at my parents who both motioned for me to go.
"Okay." I laid my hand on his arm and he smiled. A bolt of electricity shot through my arm and I gasped.
"Hold on." He said quietly. It was a strange feeling, like I was being turned inside out at my belly button and sucked through a tube at the same time. Then just as quickly as it started I was standing in Lily's room.
"Damn it!" Remus said.
"What?" He was clutching his hand on the arm I was still holding on to.
"I spliched myself." He said and I could hear the pain in his voice.
"You what?" I had no idea what he was talking about I could tell that he was in pain. He showed me his hand that no longer had any fingernails.
"Splinching, it sometimes happens when you apparate. It mainly happens when you're distracted." I nodded and pulled him with his good hand into the bathroom. I turned the light on and pulled his hand closer to me. I started to get things out of the cupboard to bandage his hand. I had him sit down on the toilet and I stood in front of him. He stood up when I accidentally hit the clean nail bed.
"I'm sorry!" I appologized. I hadn't meant to hurt him and I wished I hadn't. I was able to bandage his hand although I noticed him wince a few times.
"You really are very pretty." Remus said and I looked up noticing how close we were standing. I noticed that his eyes were truly amazing; they were the color of sapphires.
He reached up and touched my cheek with his good hand. I took a step toward him. He smiled and gently kissed me.
