Chapter 2 - Sleepless Nights



Sakura, Madison and Meilin were having a heart to heart girly chat as they trekked around London looking for pubs. Sakura understood that Meilin loved Li and that made it easier for them to talk because they had something in common. It turned out that when Meilin wasn't spending her time being catty she was a really lovely person, someone Sakura felt would be a wonderful friend to have in later years. Sakura and Meilin were talking about what they thought Hogwarts would be like and Madison tuned into the conversation every five minutes or so as that was about all her brain could handle at the moment.

Eli and Li were actually having a nice chat about what all the magic would be like and how they were going to get to their platform. They had found out that Eli had the tickets and Meilin the instructions so they had swapped and then as Meilin peered at the tickets she thought something must be wrong, as it stated that their train was at eleven o'clock on platform nine and three quarters. But after reassurance that it couldn't be wrong they had decided to wait until the week before they left to get their equipment. Thus being it.

"I think that Hogwarts will probably be like some fairytale castle with never ending halls and dead ends" Sakura said casually looking over at Li and Eli. Meilin shook her head

"No way, I think that it probably looks like a normal boarding school but once you get inside it seems way bigger than it looks" Sakura thought about and nodded

"Yeah I figure that's probably spot on" Meilin smiled and Sakura smiled back. Madison smiled as she noticed them bonding over Hogwarts. Now she decided was time to go over and see what Eli and Li were talking about, and as she drew nearer she felt her cheeks slightly hotten up.

"Hey Li, Eli! What are you talking about?" she noticed that Eli's cheeks were tinged with red and she wondered if...nah.

"I'm trying to figure out where the platform is. I mean it doesn't exist" Eli nodded in agreement and then smiled at Madison

"Couldn't take Meilin and Sakura bonding huh?" Madison laughed

"It was too weird that they're actually, talking!" Li grinned and looked over at Sakura and Meilin. His eyes met Sakura's and they both looked away instantly, Madison just looked at Eli and smiled ThEy LoOk So CuTe! Eli nodded and then blushed slightly, craving some courage. Madison's smile was courage enough and he looked her straight in the eyes So Do YoU. Madison blushed and turned her head looking at a weird little building, that was so dark yet it seemed so cosy /And no-one else can see it/ She thought excitement rising

"Look!" She squealed "The Leaky Cauldron" The others looked away from their conversations and smiled laughing

"Finally!" Sakura cried, she bravely stood next to Li and tugged his arm "Let's go" She dragged Li with her who at this point had turned as red as a rose

"Um, Sakura could you..." Sakura suddenly realised that she had been dragging Li so she quickly dropped his arm and shuffled next to Madison who was gazing at Eli thoughtfully /Does he really like me?/ She looked over to Sakura who was burning red and then at Meilin who was glaring but not as bad as she had before she became friends with Sakura. Well at least she thought they were friends now, she wasn't sure.

Once in The Leaky Cauldron Eli managed to get five rooms and they all settled down for a good sleep. The next day was shooping day and they all needed to rest, but Meilin was the only one who actually got to sleep. The others had too much on their mind, and in the morning when Meilin came into their rooms one by one they felt more tired than ever before.

"Li! C'mon this is no time for bed!"

"I need to sleep" Meilin laughed

"For another twelve hours? I don't think so Li Showron" She grimaced and sat on his bed

"She kept you up didn't she?" Li looked at her with a puzzled expression "Sakura" Li nodded sadly and looked at Meilin, a tear glistened in her eye and in that moment he realised what love she carried for him. He hugged her and then they got up. That one moment between them was special and they both knew that. As Li stumbled down the stairs and felt a hand on his shoulder, he spun around

"Meilin..."

"Actually I'm kinda hoping my name's Sakura otherwise this all really is a dream"

Li looked up at Sakura and could tell that she had been sleepless too, he wondered if she could tell he hadn't slept and the concerned look in her eyes confirmed it

"Couldn't sleep last night, I guess it must have been nerves"

"Same" But she knew that he was lying but she didn't want to say a thing. As the group got together they stared around the courtyard at the back of the pub in wonderment

"How do we get out?" Sakura asked the same question politely to many people but only one person answered. They all gaped at this huge man with black beetly eyes and a long shaggy beard

"Three up... Two across..." And he tapped on the wall with a pinkish umbrella. Amazingly the wall began to unravel into an archway through which the gang and this giant walked.

"Hagrid" he mumbled and then nodding slightly whilst shaking Sakura's hand he walked off down a forbidding alley

"Well, now where do we go?"



Authors Note: Another long one with Hagrid not saying much because it's really hard to do that accent type thing... You know when he says ter the pub and stuff, anyway onto ze next chapter
