Julia Potter tentatively stepped into the compartment that a taller boy was sitting. Her twin brother, James, walked behind her. "Excuse me… but would you mind if we sat with you?" She smiled, somewhat shyly, at the handsome boy. He grinned broadly at them. "Sure! I'd like that." James took charge of the conversation from there. "Well then…what house are you going to be in?" Sirius's face fell, almost comically." My whole family's been in Slytherin." Julia spoke up. "So what? It doesn't matter. We can still be friends, right?" James and Sirius both looked somewhat incredulously at her. "Sure!" James said, smiling. Sirius mouthed thank you gratefully at Julia. She shrugged and smiled softly, mouthing no problem back.

"Wake up, Lazy Butt! It's 10:30!" "In the morning!" came a deeper voice. "You really should get up, Jules… They have pink hair dye." This voice was calm and somewhat reassuring. Despite the fact that three boys were in my room, I, Julia, known as Jules to my friends , was unconcerned. I rolled over into my pillow. Wait… BOYS??? IN MY ROOM???? I shrieked and threw the pillow at the nearest boy. He groaned, in mock pain. "Okay, okay! No need to get so violent, Jules. We're leaving! Honest!" I would know these voices anywhere. In order of voices, James, Sirius, and Remus. Lily's bed was empty next to mine. That stupid morning person must have already gotten ready an hour before me. Lily was surprised at how much idiocy I dealt with every single day of my life. I sighed, and shrieked at the sight of my wild black hair. " W-what happened? MY HAIR IS PERFECTLY STRAIGHT!!! NOT LIKE JAMES!!!!!" I heard evil laughter downstairs. "SIRIUS!!! I HATE YOU!!!" A delicate, light female voice rose up the stairs. "Join the club, Jules!" Lily Evans, my best friend and the object of my twin brother's affections had joined the conversation. She hated my brother, but I detected a thawing in her. James was sweet at home, with no hot girls to impress. I, dressed and ready to kill with pin-straight hair and dark skinny jeans with a navy blue halter, ran down the stairs, ready to kill some Marauders.

" Hey Chase! What's up, little lioness?" That, of course, came from the rude Sirius Black, aka Padfoot. He grinned devilishly at me. I glared stonily back at him. My hazel eyes were boring holes into him. Remus sighed, already tired of our never-ending fighting. " Please end your constant bickering now, BEFORE we all go to Hogwarts today. We are all legal adults now, you know." I flipped my long, raven-black hair right into that bugger, Sirius's face.

~~Sirius P.O.V~~

Wow… I never noticed that Chase's hair smelled like strawberries. It smelled really good. OMG!! She puts drugs in her hair to lure in poor unsuspecting, innocent boys such as myself… or her hair just smells good… Not likely…

~~ Lily P.O.V~~

Idiots. This house is full with idiots. Insane idiots. God. Shoot me now. Even Jules is going crazy! When will James stop poking me? Does he have ADHD? I'll ask Julia…
