Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter…Harry Potter belongs to J.K. Rowling, the coolest author in the world! Also, some names, places and plots are all from my head, other similarities are probably coincidences.

I do not own Nescafe.

James sighed and leaned back against the train's wall. His luck with Lily for the past six years was not good. He had one year left, and it starts in two months.

"Hey, Prongs. Get a compartment before I blast your head off with this firework," Sirius said dismissively. James laughed.

"Padfoot, you're going to my house this year too, so don't bite my head off!"

Sirius smiled. "Oh yeah, I forgot."

Ever since the incident with his mother, Sirius had ran away from home last summer to go to James' house. James was glad to see his best pal, but not too glad to see his cuts. His mother was frazzled when she saw him and immediately cured him. James' father was nice to Sirius, treated him like James. He asks him to pass the salt now, as he never did to guests. Sirius is like a brother to him, and they are inseparable (déjà vu; hence book three).

"Anyways, what's with the firecracker thing…?"

Sirius grinned evilly. "You'll see…YYYOOOOOOOUUU'LLLL SSSEEEEEEE!"

James raised an eyebrow. "Okay…………"

Remus quickly headed for the prefect's compartment. He was going to be late if he didn't hurry. When he reached there, he panicked. No one was there, only James' six year crush, Lily Evans.

"Lily…am I late?" he managed to squeak out.

Lily laughed. "No, of course not. You're, in fact, fifteen minutes early."

Remus checked his watch. "But mine says…wait a minute…"

A spring loaded message bounced up from the cover of the watch. Remus jumped back a little. The message read:

HAHAHAHA! Gotcha Moony-kins. I wish I could've seen your face when you were 'late!'

Sirius

Remus was a bit angry for a second, but laughed and said, "Good old Sirius…"

---

WWOOOOOOT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTT!

The train started. Sirius quickly lit up the firecracker and threw it out the window when the train turned. It hit directly in an open window, which belonged to the Slytherin gang (as in Snape, Malfoy, Narcissa, Bellatrix, Rodolphus, Regulus…).

"YOWTCH!" James and Sirius heard Bella yelp.

"MY HAIR!" Narcissa hollered.

"ACK! WHAT THE BLOODY…AHH! IT'S AIMING FOR MEEEEEEEE! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Snape screamed like a schoolgirl. James and Sirius laughed.

"Good aiming, my friend," James praised.

"That's what I get for being a chaser for four years!"

James laughed when he heard Regulus' ear-piercing shriek of "OH MOMMYYYYY!".

---

"Uh…what was that?" Remus asked as he looked out the window, just in time to see a smoking compartment.

He laughed at bit, for it had Sirius written all over it.

"Prefects, sorry to call you in the end of the school year, hope you will forgive us…" the Head Boy Frank Longbottom apologized.

"No worries, Frank," a Ravenclaw prefect said.

"Thanks. Dumbledore told us to call this meeting, so…yeah. Anyways, this is regarding You-Know-Who. I won't dare say his name for we are still technically…in school grounds."

Some people chuckled.

"Well, anyways, what Frank is trying to say…" Alice Green put in. Alice and Frank are dating, and Lily is so happy for Alice to be able to be Heads with each other.

"…Is that…HE is coming to power…and we need to be careful. The muggle families will stay in wizards' homes or vice versa. The wizards who own a home in a muggle area; the muggles closest will go to that house…for protection."

"Oh, by the way, your parents have been informed already, so no need to explain. All of them agreed, except, no muggles will go into a Slytherin home," Alice finished.

"THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT!" exclaimed Jerome Polish, a Slytherin seventh year prefect.

"The list of where you're going will be on the bulletin board outside," Frank added. "So thanks for listening, and we all hope you will have a safe summer."

---

"So…how was the meeting?" Sirius asked as he played with his fingers. He separated them, put them together and separated it into pairs. James just raised an eyebrow.

"What? I don't have problems!" Sirius yelled as he sat back up.

Remus chuckled, and then explained about the meeting.

"WHAT? THAT'S MAD! DUMBLEDORE'S MAD! MUGGLES IN OUR HOMES, NOT THAT IT MATTERS, BUT THEIR FAMILY TOO? THEY'LL KNOW EVERYTHING, THEY'LL… AUGH!"

"Whoa, Sirius, spaz…" James laughed.

"So, Alice, what's it like dating Frank?" Lily inquired as Frank left to go to the bathroom.

Alice blushed. "He's quite nice, really brave…just to tell you, in simple words, I absolutely LOVE dating Frank! He understands what I say and I understand what he says, even if it's just plan stupidity."

Lily sighed. "Lucky…" she muttered. Alice laughed.

"You've got James…" she said. Lily moaned.

"I forgot about that git…"

"Aw, Lily. He's nice!" Alice said reassuringly. "Besides, you'll get to know him in under a few months."

Lily looked at Alice. "What are you saying?"

"Look at the bulletin."

Lily dashed to the board.

NESCAFE:

Ilene Dover's family (5)

POTTER:

Lily Evans' family (4)

Lily's eyes bulged out. "I'M WITH HIM!"

---

The train arrived at platform nine and three quarters at seven PM sharp. The students began to pile out and talk excitedly about the muggle and wizard thing, except for Lily, who looked disgruntled. Who would want to spend the entire summer with James? Actually, everyone except her. But Petunia would surely do something stupid, like call his family freaks, then she would never be able to face Hogwarts again!

She looked over at James, who was with Sirius and Remus. She had just saw them wave goodbye to Peter Pettigrew, who walked away with his mum.

---

"This is going to be interesting…" Remus had muttered as he saw the list on the board.

James knew also, but from the six years of rejection, he decided to just go as forward as friendship. Remus was proud of his decision, but Sirius hated the fact that he was gaining tact. Silly Sirius.

"So…what do you think she'll do to us? Give us detention in your home?" Sirius joked. Normally, he would've received glares, but James' decision was quite wise, that way, Lily would like him in some way.

"Definitely. 'Potter, you just gave you house elf a break! 5 points off Gryffindor the next second we get back to Hogwarts!'" James mimicked. Remus couldn't help but chuckle. That was very much like Lily.

"No, James, you portrayed her too weirdly. Allow me. Ah-hem. 'BLACK! POTTER! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? YOU'RE BURNING YOUR SILK CURTAINS! AND WHAT'S THAT, LUPIN? YOU JUST TOOK A BOOK FROM THE LIBRARY WITHOUT ASKING! AGH! POTTER! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? YOU'RE DIRTY! STOP JUMPING ON YOUR VELVET COUCHES!'"

"That's too exaggerated, Padfoot," James laughed as he took his trunk out the train.

"Ah well."

Remus smiled. "So…I'll just hang around your house for the summer…I don't exactly want Beatrice Giddle in my house with her family."

Beatrice Giddle was a Hufflepuff muggle who enjoys pinching cute guys' cheeks (not the face) and she giggled like a toad. She had bouncy blonde curls that are tied into pigtails and freckled cheeks. She looked snobby too. No one really wanted to be around her, especially the marauders.

"Yeah, I know how you feel…" James mumbled smiling. "Beatrice is an idiot too."

"Very nice. Now do you guys mind helping me here?" Sirius moaned as a bunch of owl cages clattered on him.

James and Remus shook their heads and rushed to help their struggling friend.

Meow. Don't harm me. I bite.

Flames will be laughed at, encouraging comments will be best.

Ciao mates.

Cest.steffie.
