Chapter 3: A Platform & an Old Friend
About a week after Lily met her newest friend, Rosie, she was on her way to Platform 9 ¾, the only problem was that she didn't know how to get on and neither did Rosie.
"Do you think we should try to find any other witches or wizards to show us how to get onto the Hogwarts Express?" Lily asked Rosie as they were waiting between platforms 9 and 10.
"Well yah, I mean if we want to get to school on time. Hey you, yah you, do you know were Platform 9 ¾ is?" Rosie asked an elderly man walking past at that moment.
"Youngsters these days. they'll never learn to respect their elders." The man kept mumbling until he got onto his train.
"Well that didn't work ou- Hey Lils, did you hear someone say muggles?" Rosie asked Lily.
"All these muggles. why couldn't the Hogwarts Express be somewhere else, Mel? Are you listening to me?" said a heavyset woman walking with three brown-haired children at her side. Lily and Rosie knew that they were witches and wizards, because one of the children, a girl with long brown hair and deep watery eyes, has a snowy owl on top of her trolley.
"E-excuse me ma'am. d-do you know how to. um. get onto Platform 9 ¾?" Lily asked shyly to the woman.
"Oh, dear are you and your little friend going to Hogwarts, too? My little Melody is going into her first year. Of course I can show you how to get to the Hogwarts Express, dears!"
"Yes we are. um. we are going into our first year to Mrs. um. sorry I don't know you last name." Lily, yet again, said shyly.
"Oh yes, well my name is Lisa Watt, but you can call me Lisa. My oldest child's name is Brandon, he's going into his 6th year, then we have Alexis, she's going into her 3rd year, and then we have my youngest, Melody, she's going into her 1st year, too, but I already told you that!" Lisa said happily.
"Oh (a/n- she says 'Oh' a lot! Lol) well be better get going so you 5 aren't late for school!" Lisa, again, said happily.
So Mrs. Watt showed Lily and Rosie how to onto the train and, since Melody was a pureblood, Lily and Rosie started to hang out with her. They became the best of friend really fast.
On the train, after Melody said good-bye to her mum, the three girls tried to find a compartment of their own, and they did. So while the train was waiting for eleven o'clock to come around, the girls started to talk.
"You never told me your names you know." Melody said to Lily and Rosie.
"Well my name is Rosie Johnson and her name is-" but Rosie was cut off when three boys, very cute may I add, walked into the train compartment.
"Excuse me my lovely girls, would you mind if my two other friends and I sit in here with you? Every where else if full." The boy with slick black hair and brown eyes asked.
"Of course you can boys!" Rosie answered, "Any way, before these three handsome gentlemen interrupted me. her name is Li-" The three boys had now sat down and were looking at the girls.
"LilyFlower?" the boy with messy black hair, thin silver wire glasses, and milk chocolate eyes said (a/n- here he is finebyme!).
"Jamie- is that you? Oh My Gosh! It is you! I could never forget you hair and your eyes! & you got glasses! Oh Jamie. I've missed you soooooo much!" Lily just couldn't stop talking, she was WAY, WAY to excited about seeing her best friend again, it had been 4 years since they had last seen each other.
"HOLD IT! HOLD IT! You mean to tell me Lily that you know this cute hunk and you never told me?" Rosie asked Lily while looking at James' face.
"Yes well. we haven't seen each other for about 4 years- wait Jamie, you never told me you were a wizard." Lily explained.
"You never told me that you were a witch! Oh LilyFlower, I've missed you for soooooo long, how have you been? Have you played any pranks on Petunia lately?" James could have gone on forever, but he decided to stop and let his "LilyFlower" talk for a while.
"Lily, before you answer any of those questions, will you tell us ALL how you know this boy. Jamie?" Melody asked Lily.
"Well. James and I grew up together. Well, that is until James moved away. we never saw each other again, until now. that is." Lily explained.
"Are you serious?" Rosie asked to Lily.
"No I am. Sirius Black at you service, fair lady." The boy with the slick black hair and brown eyes said. "Could we please go around the room and introduce ourselves properly?" the last boy said, he had sandy-blonde hair and watery blue eyes.
"OK. I'm Lily Evans."
"Rose Johnson, but just call me Rosie."
"Melody Watt, you can call me Mels, if you want."
"James Potter."
"The fabulous Sirius Black."
"And I'm Remus Lupin."
