While pushing her trolley, Lily looked at her letter in confusion. There
wasn't any platform 9 ¾!
"Platform 9 ¾! Where in bloody hell!" she cursed as she pulled her trolley
to the side and sat down on its end. She saw her parents walked around and
look at signs, shaking their heads also. Her sister, however, stood stubbornly
next to them, her arm crossed and her nose in the air.
"H'lo stanger!" Someone put their hands on her shoulders and made her
jump. She gasped, put her hand to her chest and turned around.
"You!" she growled as she saw a red faced Silvia laughing, her hands
holding her sides.
"Yes me!" she said and sat down on her trolley as well. "So, I guess you
haven't found the platform either, eh?" she asked as she looked at her
friend.
"No, and my parents haven't either," she said, gesturing to her family,
who were fanatically searching for a platform. Silvia giggled.
"They are kinda funny!" she said and cleared her throat. "I wish my mum
and dad were here," She said, quietly. Lily looked over at her.
"I'm sorry, why aren't they here?" she asked, putting her hand on her friends arm.
"They have to work. 'Work is work, and time is money'," she said quoting
what her mother told her earlier that morning. Lily made an "O" with
her lips and sat at the end of her trolley. Silvia saw this and did the same.
"So, what did you name our beautiful owl?" Silvia asked as she gestured
to a snow-white owl in a cage siting on her brown tattered trunk. Lily looked
over her shoulder at him and smiled.
"Snow," she said, proudly, flipping her auburn red hair back. It was tied with a bow
that fit in the middle of her curly mass. Silvia laughed, putting her hand to her mouth,
her fingers curled.
"That's cute!" Silvia said and leaned back. Her hair hung limply down her back, the
tips touching the waist of her blue jeans. Lily looked over and noticed and wooden
crate with an orange and black...thing hanging out of its bars!
"Sil, what is that?" Lily asked, pointing to the figure. Silvia raised her left eyebrow and looked to where Lily was pointing. She laughed.
"That's Kitty!" she said, giggling, "She's my orange tortoise shell cat!" She patted the top of the crate and the sound of a purr came from it. They both giggled and looked
around.
"Hey, what are those two girls doing?" Lily asked, pointing over to two girls
who had just walked to a wall. The one with the white-blonde hair kissed her parents
goodbye and nodded to her friend.
"I don't know," Silvia said, watching them. Lily and Silvia's mouths dropped when they saw the two girls walk in to the wall!
"What in bloody hell?" Lily cursed and got off her trolley. Silvia was just as shocked as she did the same. They ran to the wall and stopped just before they collided into it. Lily took a deep breath and decided it was now or never.
As Lily prepared to run into the wall, Silvia stopped her.
"Um, what about them?" she asked, pointing her thumb towards Lily's parents struggle with her sister, who refused to let go of a pole.
"We have to hurry, we'll miss the train," was all Lily said as she ran into the wall.
Silvia took a deep breath and sighed.
"Well, here goes nothing!" she said and followed Lily.
*~*~
As they walked through the train looking for a seat, Lily and Silvia talked in excited whispers.
"This is so wicked! I mean, I always wanted to travel by train and all!" Silvia exclaimed. Lily raised her eyebrow and looked at her.
"What?" Silvia asked and giggled. "I was kidding! My gosh, Lily, joke once in a while! Live a little!" Silvia laughed as she put her hand on Lily's shoulder.
Lily chuckled, but stopped as she was knocked off her feet. Silvia stumbled and fell into another body and lay, like Lily, tangled on the floor.
"Ouch!" they all groaned.
"Has anyone seen my glasses? I can't see without 'em!" Silvia asked, as she searched the ground.
"Sorry miss, let me help you," a kind male voice said.
"Could you get your hand of mah fash?" Lily asked, semi-politely.
"Sure," the boy said and removed his hand. All Lily saw was black untidy hair and glasses.
"Oh here miss, let me help you!" he offered her his hand. She shook her head, chuckled
and took it.
"Hi'lo," he said when she was on her feet. "My name is James..."
"As in Bond?" Lily laughed. James raised an eyebrow.
"Huh?"
"Never mind," Lily said, turning red.
"Ahem, my name is James Potter, and you are?" he asked, his face darkening.
"Lily Evans," Lily said, shaking her hand, which was still in James'.
"Yeah, um, so," James said, taking his hand away and running it trough his hair, making
it even more untidy. Lily noticed that his eyes were a soft beautiful brown.
"Yeah, so hope to see ya 'round," James said without emotion. They both looked at the ground and James put a hand in his hair again.
"Hey, I found them!" Silvia said and Lily looked down at her.
"Sorry I didn't see you...um..." Silvia said as she began to get off his legs. She got up
and look at her glasses; one frame had popped out and her nose piece was broken.
"Eh, this can't be good!" Silvia said, trying to put the lends back into place.
"Oh! Here, let me try," the boy said quickly. He waved his wand and said, "Occulas Repairo!" and her glasses fell back together.
"Gee, thanks!" Silvia held out her hand.
"Silvia Walters," she said.
"Remus Lupin," he said, gently taking her hand and kissing it. Her face turned red.
"Well," she giggled as he put her hand down, "that wasn't what I was expecting. Just a
simple handshake would have done too, but...yeah...we have to go! So, um, yeah! See ya 'round!" Silvia stammered as she looked into his blue eyes and saw his sandy blonde hair fall into them.
She grabbed Lily's hand and they left the two boys standing there.
"Hey Remus," James said, nudging his friend's side. "I believe I have met my future prize."
