Best of Everything

"Oh look, if it isn't the little tomato."

Lily turned around from where she had been standing, looking into the window of Quality Quidditch Supplies, only to come face to face with a certain boy with black hair and glasses.

"What do you want, Inkhead?"

"Oh. nothing much. Just for you too move out of the way so I can get a good look at the new model."

"New model of what?"

"Broomstick, of course. Ever notice which store you're standing in front of?"

Sirius rolled his eyes as the two continued on in this fashion.

"Will you two just cut it out and go in?", he interrupted, hoping they would listen to him.

"Lily! Come on dear," yelled Mrs. Evans from the other side of the street where she was talking to Mr. Potter and Mr. Black.

"Oh, bloody hell," muttered James. "They're getting reacquainted. Just you wait. Over Christmas I'll have to either go over to her house for dinner or worse," he shuddered, "she could have to come over to mine."

"Ah, cheer up, mate. Just think of throwing pranks on some helpless little Slytherins."

James grinned devilishly. "I can hardly wait," he said, staring directly at Lily Evans.

September 1st

"Lily, are you sure of the platform number?"

"I'm positive. The letter said Platform 9 3/4 at 11 o'clock, September 1st."

"Ahh, is poor wittle Wily have trouble finding da pwatform?"

"No help from you, Inkhead," she said, turning around. "I don't suppose you know how to get on the platform."

"Of course we do," said Sirius. "Our parents told us. Just like this."

With that they took off running towards the barrier, dragging their carts along behind them. Just as a group of German tourists was walking by they disappeared. When the tourists had gone by, James and Sirius had disappeared.

Lily thought for a moment. It looked as if they just ran straight through the barrier. Might as well. So gathering up her courage, she ran forward, closed her eyes and waited for the crash. She opened her eyes and saw a long, bright scarlet train with Hogwart's Express written on the side.

"Took ya long enough," said James from in front of her. "You better hurry up and get on the train before it leaves."
