Disclaimer? Okay. Think logically. If I owned Harry Potter, which I don't, do you REALLY think I'd be writing this on FanFic? That's what I thought. ;) I DO however own "Brigit Wooley" and "Nell Ovenka". The rest is the Great JKR's. *Bows down to fave author*

This will be fun to write. *Grins mischievously* Shéì



Chapter Three- Rain "You, you, YOU WORTHLESS PRIG!" Lily screeched at James "Look, Evans, it's not MY fault you got humiliated!" James replied smoothly. "Oh really?" She said matter-of- factly. "So it was MY fault that you set off a Dungbomb while I was talking to Matt, and he thought I farted? Yeah, sure." James tried his hardest to contain his laughter- to no avail. He lost control, and stared laughing so hard that he teared up. "Exactly. You have got to be the most immature human alive- next to Sirius of course." Sirius had heard his name- but he was to transfixed with Ella to realize what is was all about. He lost interest and went back to his gazing. "Padfoot, you're going to go cross-eyed if you keep looking at Arabella like that." Remus said. "What did you say, Moony?" "I believe I just made my point." "Yeah, whatever."

When the Hogwarts Express stopped at it's station, it was raining cats and pigs outside. The students got off the train in their school robes, Lily and James wearing their Head Boy and Girl Badges. Umbrellas had been handed out, but people had to share. As result, Dumbledore paired everyone off. Remus and Nell, Peter and Brigit (much to her dismay), James and Arabella, and Sirius with Lily. As Lily and Sirius walked towards the boats together, Lily had her arms crossed and was looking away. Sirius shot James evil glares at James who was talking happily with Arabella. Trying to make conversation, seeing as they had quite a ways to go, Sirius ventured a comment cautiously. "Sooooo.. Haves any special plans for this year?" Sirius asked. "No." "Oh. Why not?" "Look. Sirius, we don't need to talk. It's okay. Just keep walking, please?" "Yeah, uh. okay. But I do have a question for you." She raised her eyebrows and said: "And that question is?" "Well.uh.well.it's.. um." "Sirius for god's sake, SPIT IT OUT!" she said, exasperated. "Doesarabellahaveaboyfriendifnotdoyouthinkshedbeinterestedinme?" Lily rolled her eyes. "Sirius, I'd prefer if you'd answer me in proper English, not gibberish!" Sirius winced. "As I was saying, Does Arabella have a boyfriend, if not do you think shed be interested in me?" "To be frank Sirius, I have no clue. On either topic for that matter." Inwardly, she was trying not to laugh at the though of her best friend and Sirius Black together. She bit her lip until it bled to keep from snorting.

About 50 paces behind, Remus and Nell were talking and having a great time, forgetting about everything except each other. Nell was sure that she was falling in love. She was very different then Ella and Lily. Nell was rather short, with soft brown hair. Her complexion was fair, and she had freckles dotted across her delicate nose. Her figure was voluptuous, a bit curvier than Lily. Her eyes were large and brown, and her demeanor was a far cry from Lily or Arabella's. She was rarely seen without a smile on her sweet face, and always seemed to be there when someone needed her. She had been extremely close to Remus over the years, guided him through his darkest times, and helped him come to terms with being a werewolf. Remus had always known he loved Nell, but never had the courage to tell her.

((Shei's note- you like? I double-spaced it this time- so I hope it was easier to read than before. Please, please, PLEASE continue to review, reviews mean EVERYTHING to me. But even if you don't *sniffle* I will continue on with the story, because I love to write, dammit! Thankies!))
