Hogwarts
~*LILY'S POV*~
When I got off the train I heard a loud booming voice. An enormous young man yelled out, "Firs' years! Firs' years! Firs' years over here! All right over there, James?"
I looked over to my left and saw James nod his head. We approached a large lake and tiny boats littered the bank of it. My heart sank when the large man called out four to a boat. My only new friends were James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter. Of coarse they were going to stick together in a boat. I was about to head toward an empty boat when Sirius grabbed my arm and dragged me to their boat. I looked at Sirius and asked him, "Why did you have me in your boat. Where is Peter?"
Remus put on a grim face and Sirius grinned and said, "Oh! That little twirp is sooo annoying. You're much cooler and plus your a girl."
Sirius grinned at me and winked. I just blushed and turned away. I saw that James got tense when I blushed at Sirius's wink. He turned away and sighed. When our boat reached a small underground dock, a woman in a emerald green cloak opened a large wooden door and pursed her lips. Her lips were so thin that when she pursed her lips, they seemed to disappear. The woman led us into a circular room and got up on a small platform off the ground.
She said, "Welcome to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. For short terms it's called WHSWW or just Hogwarts. I'm Professor McGonagall. Later you will be sorted into your houses. Now will you please form a line and follow me.
She climbed down from the platform and led us into an huge room filled with older students. They all peered curiously at us. I was so nervous that I clung onto the first thing that was near me, which was James. He looked at me and took my hand. When Professor McGonagall came out with a hat, questions were buzzing through my brain. 'Was I supposed to grab a rabbit out of the hat? Was I supposed to perform some type of magic?' I squeezed James's hand in nervousness. They started in alphabetical order. Starting with Abbott, Henry, who turned out to be a Hufflepuff. They called down all the way to Black, Sirius. I watched him sidle toward the hat with a silly grin on his face. When the hat slid over his eyes the hat screamed out, "GRYFFINDOR!"
I gave a quick smiled toward Sirius while he looked over toward James and I. He took a seat next to a girl with flaming red hair. While I wasn't paying attention to Professor McGonagall, I heard her screech my name. Looking at James with searching eyes, he gave my hand a encouraging squeeze and pushed me forward. My legs were shaking and I let go of James's warm comforting hand. When I sat down on the stool and put the hat over my head I could hear a tiny voice in my ear. It said, "Hmm...very interesting mind you've got there! Very talented, loyal, that means you should be in....GRYFFINDOR!"
I carefully took the battered hat off my head and sat next to Sirius who gave me a hug and pointed to the rest of them who needed to be sorted. When they called out Potter, James, my heart gave a sudden jolt. What if he wasn't in my house! Would I still be able to see him, be friends with him?!
Just as the thoughts raced in my mind I heard the hat call out GRYFFINDOR! When sorting was over the hall burst into applause. After the sorting we had a huge feast. Any kind of food that I ever thought up of was there on the table.
I was full of food and a little hyper. I clung onto Sirius and giggled. He playfully kissed my cheek and my face grew red and I giggled even harder. While I was playing with Sirius I saw James watch us with such jealousy in his eyes. If only he knew how much I liked him, after all Sirius and I would never be because he was such a player.
~*JAMES'S POV*~
When I got off the train I heard a loud booming voice. An enormous young man yelled out, "Firs' years! Firs' years! Firs' years over here! All right over there, James?"
Immediately I knew it was Hagrid. My parents were almost best friends with him. I only saw Hagrid a few times during the summer because he was always hanging around Hogwarts and Dumbledore. I nodded at Hagrid's question and walked forward. We approached a large lake and tiny boats littered the bank of it. My heart sank when Hagrid called out four to a boat. I knew Peter was going to take that fourth spot that was meant for Lily. I mumbled to myself. Peter was always hanging around me when I was small. He lived across the street from me at home and was always bugging me and Sirius or me and Remus or the three of us together.
Sirius, seeing that Peter was being pushed back by the crowd, poked me and walked away. I was wondering where he walked off to when I saw him hand in hand with Lily. I turned away and stared at the water. When I heard Lily giggle, I looked at Sirius as he gave Lily a small wink. Watching Lily blush at Sirius made me so jealous. I liked Lily a lot.

I knew that they weren't going to make us do any magic and I knew that I was going to be in Gryffindor. Ever since last year, I knew I was a seer. I could predict things a few minutes before they happened. Sirius was in Gryffindor, so was Lily and Remus, and oh! Peter Pettigrew HAD to be in Gryffindor. I was very surprised when I sensed that Peter was going to be in Gryffindor.
When sorting was over the hall burst into applause. After the sorting we had a huge feast. Any kind of food that I ever thought up of was there on the table. After the feast I could tell that Lily was very hyper. She clung onto Sirius's neck and giggled. Sirius was obviously enjoying this because a few minutes afterwards he kissed her on the cheek and had a huge grin on his face. A pang of jealousy ran through my body like an electric shock. If Lily was going to hurt me like this, it was going to be war!
