Disclaimer: I don't own anything to do with Harry Potter.
Kissing my mother goodbye, I hopped onto the Hogwart's express. I felt the rush of excitement that is normally resevered for first years. My name is Mary MacDonald. The most exiting thing about me is that I'm a witch. I mean, I'm not beautiful, or outgoing. I'm just… Mary.
I quickly found my usual apartment, and sat down, making myself at home. I looked at my watch. 10:55. Where is Lily? She should be here by now. She's never late. Perhaps she's been kidnapped by Potter again? Very likely, as James Potter is obsessed with her.
And deep down, she likes him back.
Suddenly the compartment door slid open and Lily walked in.
"MARY!" she screamed, "I've missed you so much. I've had to put up with Petunia ALL summer, and all she talks about is her boyfriend Vernon. He looks so much like a walrus you know!"
"Aw, poor Lily! You could have come to my house you know."
Lily looked as if she was about to burst out with excitement.
"Guess what" She asked in an exited whisper.
"What?"
"James is headboy!"
Strangely, she was exited about this. Maybe, because we are now in seventh year, she has realized that they are the most perfect couple in the history of perfect couples? What had happened to all that hate?
"You'll be spending hours with him!" I smiled suggestively.
She didn't come out with an insult or an 'I hate Potter speech'. She just said "I know".
I love the welcome feast at Hogwarts. I can it what I want, and as much as I want. At home, the most exiting thing is lettuce, because my mother's been on a diet for as long as I could remember.
Strangely, we were sitting with James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter today. Lily said that she and James needed to discuss 'heads business' but they had been talking for hours about it on the train. I don't see why they need to now as well! Well I do. It is obvious that they are madly in love.
Remus looked as worn as ever. It must have been full moon recently, and he hasn't had time to get over it. I found out in fifth year, when I noticed that he disappeared once a month.
"Good summer MacDonald?" Asked Sirius, as he picked up a handful of chips.
My stomach jumped. Sirius Black. I was hoping that my crush on Sirius would have gone away over the summer, but no, it's back and stronger than ever.
"Average," I replied with a small smile, "I didn't do much. How was yours?"
"Good. I stayed with James, and we mostly played quiddich."
Feigning surprise I replied "You and James like quiddich?"
"A bit" He replied, his grey eyes twinkling.
I returned to my dormitory later feeling a lot happier and fuller than I have done in a while. It was good to be back at Hogwarts.
Lily was also looking a lot happier than usual, and she is a very happy person.
"I missed Hogwarts while I was away you know. I can't believe it's our last year." She said with a distant look in her eye.
"It feels like our home doesn't it?"
"Do you think you and Sirius will ever get together?" She said suddenly.
"No. He would never look at me twice." I replied bitterly.
I can't help being hopelessly devoted.
Thanks for reading!
What do you think? Should I write anymore?
