I just realized that I make Peter either always sleeping or always eating, and he doesn't really interact with other people much. Do you want me to change it or just ignore Peter like I do now?

CHAPTER 14

"Hello!" James said to the camera merrily, wearing muggle clothing on the scarlet train in platform nine and three-quarters at Kings Cross Station.

"Welcome to forth year!" Sirius said, jumping in front of the camera beside James, "We get to go to Hogsmeade this year! I'm so excited!"

"Actually, we always go to Hogsmeade every weekend, but Padfoot here is excited because we can finally talk and boast about it in public," Remus entered the screen, having just heaved the trunk on the train with the help of another boy, who is already asleep at the corner, looking remarkably like a rat.

"The train is leaving in five minutes, and I'm ready to make Filch's life hell and make Hogwarts a better place," Sirius said, after prodding Peter with his wand to make sure he's still alive,

"OK, let's start our annual catching up on summer meeting!" James shouted excitedly as the train pulled out of the station,

"OK, I wore my Gryffindor scarf the whole summer, and my Mom officially kicked me out, so now I am living in Prong's house, isn't that exciting?"

"Yeah, my Dad agreed to let Padfoot stay over, but my Mom doesn't seem so pleased, she kept on muttering about how one teenage troublemaker is enough,"

"Personally, I agree with her," Remus said, "And so does every single teacher in Hogwarts, but still. Pranksters are a part of Hogwarts, without the infamous troublemakers, school life would be very dull,"

"I finally collected my fifth full set of chocolate cards!" James announced proudly and started pulling out a large and overstuffed bag and poured the contents all over the floor,

"Wow, these are really rare, how many did you eat over the summer to get all these?"

"Not a lot, about as much as I got for Christmas, actually, double it,"

"I'm surprised that your teeth is still white,"

"I take special care in them, girls like them pearly white,"

The three boys continued to talk and occasionally rummage through the pile of chocolate frogs on the floor to find one they have been missing or has never seen,

"Oh, the food trolley is here!" Sirius jumped up and ran outside, juggling the galleons he managed to steal from his mom before he got kicked out, which was actually a lot.

"Do you know that the trolley is actually called Honeydukes Express?" Remus said through mouthfuls of pumpkin pasties, "The trolley lady told me the last time I brought the Daily Prophet from her,"

"Really?" James said, unwrapping some chocolate cauldrons, "So these are all from honeydukes,"

"Apparently," Sirius said, and took a chocolate cauldron and threw it at Peter, "Wake up, there's food!"

Peter woke up immediately and started munching on pumpkin pasties and chocolate cauldrons.

"We will arrive in 30 minutes, you guys better put your robes on," a Prefect had appeared by the compartment door, reciting his line, "Wow, is that a whole set of Chocolate Frog cards?"

"Yep," James said with a proud expression,

"Wicked," the prefect knelt down and began rummaging through the pile of cards still on the ground, "I've been collecting for years, I never got a complete set, guess I'm not lucky enough. Mind if I stay for a while and look at them?"

"Go ahead."

The Prefect immediately dived into the pile, the three boys continued talking, and Peter continued eating, he actually never stopped, but still.

"I'm looking for a Prefect?" Lily suddenly appeared by the open doorway, "what are you doing?"

"Oh, Evans," the Prefect stood up with a sheepish grin as Lily raised a eyebrow, "I'm just complimenting Mr Potter here about his complete set of Chocolate Frog cards,"

"It's actually my fifth set," James corrected him, and earned a glare from Lily, which he returned with a grin,

"So, Evans, you say you're looking for me?"

"Actually, I'm looking for a Prefect who doesn't go around looking for Chocolate Frog cards, but you can do," Lily said, and the Prefect looked at his shoes sheepishly, "I heard that several Slytherins are picking on the first years in the first compartment,"

"Ugh, no again!" the Prefect practically growled and ran out, his robes billowing out behind him, but James is faster than him, he's already out and sprinting up the train.

James arrived at the scene and saw Snape and Malfoy standing at the side, sneering at several first years who is being kicked by Crabbe and Goyle,

"Oi!" James shouted, and he said, "What are you guys doing?"

"Why do you care, Potter?" Snape sneered at him,

"We're just teaching this kid here that he does not want to be in Gryffindor," Malfoy sneered, and James saw the kid hugging his head, protecting himself,

"Oh, no you don't!" James growled and lunged himself at Malfoy, pinning him to the floor and punching him in the face.

"That's it, Snape! You don't insult Gryffindors!" Sirius said, and rolled up his sleeves and tackled Snape, pushing him on the ground and punched him repeatedly on the nose,

"Oi! Stop!" The prefect ran helplessly around the four boys beating each other up, then he looked helplessly at Lily,

"Potter, Black!" Lily shouted, and the four boys all looked up, "Enough is enough!"

James and Sirius scrambled on his feet, but Snape and Malfoy lunged themselves at them and they are engaged in a fist fight once more. Lily marched up to the four boys, completely unafraid, and hauled Malfoy and Snape by the collar of their robes up and away from the two Gryffindors,

"Don't touch me, Mudblood!" Malfoy snapped at Lily, before James and Sirius could tackle him though, she shot a warning glare at all the boys.

"Lily! It's not me, they attacked me!" Snape scrambled on his feet and walked towards Lily, but was barred by James,

"Don't touch her," James said with a determined face,

"Lily, I'm sorry!" he looked pleadingly at Lily,

"Save your breath, Snivellus," Lily said coldly, and turned to the Prefect, "I'm disappointed in you, Professor McGonagall will hear about this!"

Even though Lily is a year lower than the Prefect and in the same year as everyone in trouble, she clearly has the most power in this room.
