Lily Evans: Her story Part 4



That someone had black hair, bright blue eyes, and a grin on his face. He walked in the door, and said, " Anyone joining you? Can I sit here?"

They said sure, and he sat down. They asked who he was, and he said his name was Sirius Black. They introduced themselves, and were talking about Quidditch, when another knock came at the door.

This time it was a tired looking boy with brown hair and grey eyes with dark circles under them. He introduced himself as Remus Lupin. He also asked if he could sit with them. They, of course, said yes, and he sat down.

They had resumed talking about Quidditch, and after a bit, Lily's owl flew in through the window. She delivered her letter to James, and Lily put her in her cage.

James picked up the letter, and said, " What's this? Who is sending me letters now?"

Lily said, " I said that I would owl you, I just did it a bit late. It is from this morning. We have just been moving around all day, so Angel couldn't find us."

James opened the letter, and read it.

"Very interesting," he said. "But the names are Gryffindor, and Slytherin. And there are 2 more houses, which are named Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw."

"Hmm," said Lily. What house would I want if I didn't get Gryffindor?"

"Ravenclaw, definitely," said James. "They are the smart ones. But you'll figure it out when we get there. The hat will tell you."

" Hat? What hat?" asked Lily.

" The Sorting Hat. It sorts you into the house that you belong in." said James.

" Hey, you two, mind paying a bit of attention to us over here?" said Sirius.

" Wha..Oh. Sorry. I was just talking to Lily," said James.

Just as he said that, there was an announcement that the Hogwarts Express would be arriving in 10 minutes, so they all went to go change. When they came back, they got their things together, and then waited for the train to stop.
