A/N: I only got two reviews!! That makes me sad. So, if I don't get more than five for this chapter, I won't update for a while. Oh, and another thing, I've decided to make each chapter a different character in the story. This chapter will be Harry, but it won't go back to the beginning, it will start when Hermione gets onto the platform. Enjoy!!

Chapter 2- On the Train

Harry stood on the platform, looking around for someone he knew. There were no redheads in sight so he knew the Weasley's weren't there yet. He also noticed that no one had their nose in a book, so that ruled out the possibility that Hermione was there. He looked at the clock just to see how much time was left until the train took off. He looked at the clock said 10:55. Usually the Weasley's would make it, but he began to worry about Hermione. She was here about thirty minutes before hand. He decided to go and find a compartment on the train when he heard his name being called.

"Harry, over here!" He looked and saw that Hermione had just walked through the platform. He noticed that she was having a little trouble carrying her stuff, so he walked over and took her trunk.

"Oh thank you, Harry. That was so heavy," she told him. "So how was your summer? Mine was uneventful. I just stayed home and did my homework. I got it done in a week though, so that's good."

"Mine summer was the worst one yet. Since Ron went to Romania to visit Charlie, I had to stay with the Dursley's. They were unbearable. Dudley hit me so bad that I couldn't see out of my left eye for three weeks. But it's okay now," he added as he saw the look on her face. "Have you seen Ron yet? Usually he's here by now."

She said she hadn't and headed for the train. "Harry, we need to get a compartment. I'm sure Ron'll be here. He still has three minutes."

Harry took his trunk, Hermione's trunk, and Hedwig's cage and started for the back of the train. He climbed the steps and turned around so Hermione could hand him things. After all of the things were on, they went to the very back compartment. Just as they had settled down, two redheads came in, breathing heavy.

"Stupid Fred and George, they made us late! We only just got here. We would have missed the train if it wasn't for them," Ron said, catching his breath.

"They let off Fillibuster's Fireworks in the car, (they wanted to come see us off) and it confused the driver, so we were lost in Muggle London," Ginny said, clutching a stitch in her side.

"Well you did make it. Me and Harry were starting to worry about you," Hermione told them.

"Yeah, first we thought you were already on the train, then we thought you weren't even coming," Harry said. "So tell us about Romania. Was it exciting?"

For about an hour, all the four could talk about was Romania. From the sounds of things, Ron and Ginny had seen some interesting things. Every so often someone would come in to the compartment to say hi. Ginny left with one of her friends after they stopped talking about Romania, and the conversation changed entirely.

"So we would have gone to Siri-," Ron started, but stopped when he saw the pained expression on Harry's face. "Sorry, mate, I didn't mean to upset you."(A/N: He's saying that they would have gone to Sirius' house if they didn't go to Romania.)

"Let's not talk about Sirius, okay. I'm not really ready," Harry told them both. At the end of last term, Sirius Black, Harry's godfather, had died in the Department of Mysteries while fighting his cousin, Bellatrix Lestrange. That was the day that the public finally knew that Lord Voldemort had come back.

Hermione suddenly looked at her watch. "Oh my gosh, look at the time, we're nearly there. We should get our robes on."

And she was right. No less than five minutes after she said that, Harry looked out the window and seen a spectacular sight. In the distance was a beautiful castle, with its many windows lighted up. This was Hogwarts Castle, Harry's home for the next school year. For the first time in a while, he was truly happy. He was finally at home.

A/N: I can't believe it took me forever to finish this chapter. Next chapter is Draco's POV. Review please.

P.S. Does anyone know how to do italics and bold typing? I asked last chapter and no one told me. Oh yeah, I changed my pen name. I am now Princess-Meg1415.
