And, now chapter two!


"Hey, Drea, this ones empty." Lilly said pulling the sliding door open. Together they sat down.

"This is so amazing! WE are on our way to Hogwarts. It's still unbelievable – Um, hello." Andrea started, but then stopped as she noticed a boy stick his head into the door.

"Oh –er- sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt, but I think the rest are full… Do you mind if I sit with you?" The boy asked. Andrea looked at him and was impressed, being raised half-muggle/half-wizard it was easy for her to tell that he had come from a completely muggle family; a rich one at that. He had all new clothing and was pretty good looking, except his ears where to big for his head.

"Yeah, that's fine. Our friends Savanna and Hannah will probably come in later too, if you don't care." The kid shook his head and sat down. By the looks of how easily he joined himself in a conversation he wasn't at all shy.

"Nah, that don't matter. Matthew, my best friend, is coming too. As long as there's room he'll probably sit with us too. God, this place," He pointed all around himself, "is… man, I don't even know how to explain it!"

"Magical?" Drea supplied for him, the kid looked at her and smiled.

"Yeah, exactly!" He exclaimed, leaning forward to peer at Drea more closely. She grinned. "Anyway, two weeks ago you couldn't have gotten me to believe this place was real, now, I'm going to be going to school here. It's too much!"

"It's pretty cool here, isn't it? Um, I'm just curious, but before the wizarding world, where are you from?"

"The states, but my Aunt's from here." He supplied shrugging, Drea nodded, she had noticed his accent. "I'm Ben, by the way. Well Benjamin Gates, but I go by Ben."

"I'm Lillian Anne Potter." Lilly exclaimed before Drea could say a word. Perplexed, Drea glared at her friend, who was twirling her hair flirtatiously.

" Hey Lillian, care if I call you Lilly? It's easier to remember." Ben asked, giving her smile, Lilly nodded furiously.

"Oh! Of course, a lot of people know me as Lilly, that's even what my Dad, his name is Harry Potter by the way, calls me." Drea rolled her eyes; of course Lilly would say she's related to the most famous wizard ever just to get a boy interested in her.

"Um, okay. Cool, I guess." He responded, giving her a quizzical look. But he shrugged it off and looked at Drea, "What's your name?"

"Oh, I'm Andrea Granger, but I go by Drea, or Drai, depending on what you decide to call me." Drea answered smiling. Ben nodded his approval, and grinned.

"Cool, so its Lilly and Drea; got it." Just then the sliding door opened, Drea looked up expecting to see Anna or Hannah, but instead there stood another boy, though he looked to be about a year older than Ben. He, thought Drea, was extremely cute.

"Ben, there you are, for a second I thought you guys hadn't made it!" Andrea realized it was Matthew immediately after he recognized Ben, "I remember my first year; I was so lost. I was wondering around the stupid train trying to find an empty room until finally one of the teachers told me to just sit somewhere."

"Hey Matt, nah, I found this one with out to much trouble, these girls didn't mind sharing so I made my self at home." He said crossing his legs. Matthew smiled and ducked under the door, sitting beside his friend.

"Ladies." He acknowledged them with a nod, causing both Lilly and Drea to giggle nervously.

"Um, if you don't mind me asking, -I'm Drea by the way- how do you guys know each other? Ben said it was his first year here."

"We were friends before school, he rode my bus to school with me, found out we were neighbors a week later. We've known each other sense I was seven and he was six. Been close ever sense. Last year I was accepted here, and it was, like totally shocking, so I went for the year. We stayed close by mail, and Gates here has an aunt near Hogsmead, so we hung out over the holidays. You can't imagine my shock when I saw an owl go threw his window with a Hogwarts letter this summer." Matt explained, smiling the whole time. Drea heard the basic jest of everything, but didn't pay that much attention. Merlin, he was seriously cute!

"Wow, that's really cool. I can't believe that two mates like you ended up both being wizards." Lilly said; she seemed to gain her composer before Andrea could.

"Mates?" Ben asked, looking confused.

"Friends Ben, it's an English thing. Not like boyfriend/girlfriend."

"Oh, okay. Yeah, it's pretty awesome." Ben confirmed.

"Anyway, I didn't see you two last year, is this your first year?" Matt pressed, he was quite a talker, or so Drea noticed.

"Yup, but we've known about this school sense forever. Our parents went here before us." Lilly said.

"Oh, so you know about all the houses, don't you… um, what's your name again?"

"Oh, sorry, I'm Lillian Potter, but you can just call me Lilly." She added, not adding her father's name in her introduction this time. She realized the fact that they were both muggle born and from the states, they wouldn't have a clue who Harry Potter was.

"Lilly it is then." He winked in her direction, then, as he realized something he cocked his head to the side and raised an eyebrow. "Wait, you said Potter? Are you related to Harry Potter?"

"Who's that?" Ben asked. Matt shot him a look.

"You seriously don't know who Harry Potter is?" the boy shook his head, "Man! Come on, he's as big here as your uncle is in the States. He stopped the reign of You-Know-Who and saved the entire wizarding world, along with the muggles!"

"I don't know who, and what's a muggle?" Matt rolled his eyes ignoring his younger friend.

"Are you related to him?" He pressed again, Lilly shrugged like it was no big deal causing Drea to roll her eyes.

"Yeah, well, he's sort of my Dad." She responded, looking at her feet, like she was embarrassed. She of course wasn't, but that was her way of getting people to dote on and on about how cool she was to be related to him.

Matthew looked like he was about to respond, but was interrupted as the door opened and two identical red headed girls walked in smiling.

"There you are!" Anna said cheerfully.

"We've been up and down this train looking for you!" Hannah agreed, sitting down beside Matthew with out so much as looking at him.

"Hannah, Anna, this is Matthew and Ben." Drea introduced, and they nodded in their direction,

"Hello." They said together in perfect twin unison.

"Hey, you two look like Lupe and Leah in my year." Matthew exclaimed. They laughed.

"Lupin's our brother and Leah is our cousin. You might also know Brad, he's Leah's older brother, but he's in his third year now." Anna said, smiling sweetly. It was amazing how she could resemble pure sugar when she talked.

"Oh, wow, so you're the Master's little cousins! Dude, he gets into so much trouble, it's awesome! Leah's almost as bad, but he's hard to beet her brother, guess it helps that his Dad owns a joke shop though. Together Leah and Brad can crack up all of Gryffindor, it's insane!" So, great, Matthew was now extremely impressed with Hannah, Anna, and Lilly. How was this fair? Drea asked herself, peeved.

"Yeah, we know. Believe me, Mum gets onto both of them all the time, but their father just keeps encouraging them, so they continue. Eventually Headmistress McGonagall is going to get fed up and kick them out." Hannah said, rolling her eyes. Drea looked at her shocked. Sense when was she such a hypocrite? It wasn't as if she wasn't in on half of their biggest schemes herself. "What?" She asked, realizing all the girls in the room where goggling at her. "Well, it's true! They will if they keep getting caught."

"And you're not half as bad as they are!" Anna exclaimed, looking incredulously at her sister. The girl shrugged, but didn't add anything.

"Wait, so your there secret weapon to most of their success!" Matthew exclaimed, and Savannah rolled her eyes. The girl immediately shook her head no, pretending to be extremely innocent. But it was true; she was how they managed to pull off half their jokes with out getting caught. She was usually the brains behind the plan, not mention with one smile she could easily charm her way out of trouble, and the innocent look she paraded around made her the least likely one for any one to suspect. The only ones who truly knew that she was a trouble maker was her father, uncle George, her cousins Brad and Leah, her brothers Lupe and Dan, her friends and sister, and then Ginny and Hermione. Which, when listed out was a lot of people, but considering the all of the people who where in her family and then the people her family knew, it was actually a very, vary small percentage.

"Yes. She is."

"Yup."

"Basically." The girls responded at the same time Hannah shook her head,

"No, of course I'm not!"

Ben and Matthew laughed, "Sounds like you're a perfect angel." Ben concluded. Drea snickered too, she liked him, he was funny, nice, and yet, he was different, being a muggle-born from the states and all.

"Hey, Um, not that I'm trying to change the subject or anything, but do any of you guys have any idea how long this train ride is supposed to be?" Hannah asked, smiling sweetly. Had Drea not grown up with the twins she would have fallen for that sugary sweet smile, but she knew better. Hannah never liked to talk about her making trouble; it made it just that much harder to avoid the spot light when she did cause it.

"About another thirty minutes I suspect." Some one at the door said, another boy pulled the door back, but this time no one seemed to recognize him. He had to be at least four years older than Andrea.

"Oh, um, thank you. I was wondering because it had gotten dark." She added, pointing out the window. The guy shook his head in agreement but changed the subject.

"I'm Derik Seep, this year's Gryffindor Quidditch Captain. I was seeing if we had any second year Gryffindors in here. And if you don't and you all happen to be Slytherins, please, I don't need you to throw random things at my head saying you'll win. I'm sure your good, and I'm sure you will win some of your matches, just don't throw things." The kid seemed to flinch as Matt sat up a little bit more, his attention grabbed at Quidditch.

"Nah, it's good in here. All we got are a bunch of unsorted first years and a Gryffindor." Ben said shrugging. Then promptly added, "So Quidditch, um… what's that?"

Every one in the room turned to look at him in utter shock, but Derik grinned, "Muggle born are you? Avoid the Slytherin, they'll tear you to pieces."

"Muggle-born?" Poor kid was clueless.

"Hey, so I'm a second year Gryffindor, I've always wanted to play Quidditch." Matthew said, once again ignoring his poor naïve friend.

"Ah, well, be sure to show up for try-outs. We need a Seeker and a Goal-keeper if you're interested. They'll be in two days on the Quidditch field. Hope you make it, kid. See you there."

"Um, hey, I was wondering, can first years try out?" Lilly asked. The kid seemed to smirk at her, but shook his head yes.

"Sure thing kid, if you're a Gryffindor you're more than welcome to, but don't get your hopes up. Their only has ever been one first year on the team and even he was Harry Potter. If you can live up to him, then you'll be welcomed onto the team with open arms."

The girl smiled and gave a little shrugged, "Well, perhaps I can live up to him." She batted her eyelashes at the Captain who smiled and shook his head.

"Sure you can kid." He said, turning around laughing, obviously skeptic. Once he shut the door, Matthew exclaimed, "Why didn't you tell him you're Potter's kid?"

"Because, he'll remember me as the cocky first year when I try out. Then when he reads my name he'll feel exceptionally stupid, I could get a laugh out of it." Lilly said. Drea chuckled, that was so Lilly.

"Hey, I think Hannah and I are going to get changed, you should too… I think I can see the castle outline out the window." Anna said, looking out the window. Together they got up,

"See you all when we get there!" They called out cheerily and shut the door.

"It's quite odd how well they can do that whole twin thing." Matthew said, watching them leave.

"Twin thing?" Lilly asked.

"Like when they talk at the same time with out rehearsing it."

"Oh, that. It's nothing. It is kind of freaky when they start to finish each other words and sentences though." Lilly said grinning. The boys laughed.

"I think they're right though, it's probably time to get changed out of these muggle clothes though." Drea said, looking out the window where a very clear Hogwarts' outline was approaching quickly.

"Yeah, that's all good, but before we leave to get changed too, would some one please tell me what 'Muggle' is?" Ben exclaimed now looking at his clothes like he had something on them. Matt laughed and grabbed him by the arm. While they were leaving the room, Andrea could hear him explaining to Ben that muggle was a term for something that non-magical folk used.

:They're really nice." Lilly said, beginning to change. Drai smiled and nodded as she too started to put on her brand new robes.

"And Matthew is in Gryffindor so that might mean Ben will be too." Drea added.

"Yeah, I know. We'll be in the same house. That'll be good; we'll know some one in there."

"Oh, because the place isn't at all over run by your Weasily cousins." Drea said eying her best friend; it was true, every Weasily that had ever gone threw that place was in Gryffindor.

"I mean that isn't family." Lilly clarified, sticking out her tongue. Drea giggled.

"They aren't my family; beside we aren't even sure I'll be in Gryffindor with all the Weasilys'." Drea said, and then covered her mouth as she realized her slip of the tongue. She had been trying to keep from mouthing her concerns.

"Oh, please, Andrea! Of course you'll be in Gryffindor, your mum was." Lilly said, completely unconcerned.

"Yeah, but I'm not a Weasily. Just because Mum was in it doesn't mean I am going to be housed there, beside I don't think my Father was Gryffindor, other wise he probably would never have left." Drea said, sliding on the shirt to her uniform. It was a good thing that her head hadn't pushed through the collar because Lilly stood there frozen, shocked that Andrea had brought up her father. She never talked about her father!

"You are nothing like your Father." Lilly finally said sternly. Lilly rarely used a stern voice, but when she did she meant business.

"How do you know? I could be just like him for all I know." Drea challenged.

"Andrea Madison Granger, what on earth do you mean by that?" Lilly raised her voice.

"I'm just saying I have no idea who my father is, obviously he's out there, but I mean what do I know about him? He's obviously a bad person; I mean I've figured that out. –And yes, I know I'm not like him in that aspect – but what about the way I'm supper stubborn sometimes, or how I absolutely love to fly really fast, or even how I lose my temper easily? Those I didn't get from my mother, I mean, I absolutely do have biological father out there, I can't deny that, and I have traits from him, I mean my hair, and my eyes are proof of that, but how do I know that I'm not more like him than I think? What if I have the trait that he had that got him into his house? What if for some reason he was sent to Slytherin like for being stubborn, or mean, or deceptive, or arrogant, or some other trait that I have? Who's to say that I'm not going to end up in the Slytherin house too?"

"Me and that stupid talking hat, so don't get your knickers' in a knot. My father had part of the You-Know-Who in him and he managed to go to Gryffindor, so you have nothing to worry about. And, for your information, you are not mean… Stubborn, Arrogant, and deceptive maybe, but not mean." Lilly said, and then smiled. Leave it to Lilly to make Drea smile by saying she was Stubborn and Arrogant. "Now, come on! The train's stopping!" Lilly said, grabbing Drea; who followed close behind.

Yes, s that was my chapter two. Again, i appoligieze if its was not as good as chapter one, they continuelly get better as the story progresses though. Next chapter Drea, Lilly, Ben, Anna (who btw is short for Savanna), and Hannah all get sorted! Also, you get to meet some other chaircters (sorry about the over load, but its a BIG school).

Anyway, special thanks again to both krisella and Headoverheals4HP (Read her stories!! They really are awesome!)

Again, i would love to seee seven reviews before i update again, so make it happen ( i never complain when i get ten though.)
PLEASE REVEIW!

Hope you enjoyed,
Juwels
