Author's Note- Hey everybody! This is it! This is the last chapter! I'm thinking about doing a sequel (that would be much better than the first) but I want your opinion. I already have some of it planned out, but I don't know if I should post it or not. Anyways, enjoy the last chapter, and sorry it's so short!


Chapter 10

The next two weeks passed quickly. Everything went smoothly, and before anyone knew it they were packing for the train the next day. Gryffindor won the house cup, and the end of the year feast was great. For the most part there were no more interruptions in the lives of the marauders. James and Lily continued to go out, and so did Sirius and Augustine. They were all like one big family, and they were in separable.

On the last night they were ever to share at Hogwarts, they stayed up all night and just talked about the past seven years. They talked, and shared stories, and just hung out as one big group of friends. Little did they know it would be the last time they all would be together.

When morning came they said their good-byes to the teachers and to the place that has been their home for the past seven years. They took one last look at the fading castle as they were taken to Hogsmeade by the carriages pulled by thestrals. Lily and Augustine were in tears as was most of the seventh year girls. The guys were lost in their own thoughts as they did their best to comfort the ladies.

When they got to the train station, they loaded their things, and just hung around, taking in their surroundings.

The whistle sounded and they boarded the train. They got a compartment at the end of the train, and they all settled in.

As the train started to pull out of the station the compartment was silent as everyone was taking in their thoughts.

"I can't believe this is it." Sirius said, breaking the silence. There was a murmur of agreement from the rest.

"It's been great." James said, as a smile appeared on his face.

"Yeah." Augustine replied as Sirius put his arm around her.

During the rest of the ride they just talked and enjoyed each others company. James and Sirius were in the middle of an intense game of exploding snap when the train slowed to a stop at their final destination. Everyone slowly got out and took a deep breath.

Sirius turned to Augustine, "I'll see you over the summer. I promise." Augustine started to cry. Sirius kissed her and gave her one last hug before he turned to go.

"Bye, Lils. I love you." James told Lily, as he kissed her good-bye and headed over to Remus and Sirius.

Sirius blew Lily a kiss and then he disappeared through the brick barrier with the rest of the marauders.

"Bye Moony. I'll see you over the summer most likely since I'm gonna be staying at James' house." Sirius said hugging Remus.

"Your coming over my house this summer." James said, and then he hugged him.

"Sure thing. But right now I have to get going. See you later." Remus said, walking towards the entrance of the train station.

"Come on Sirius, my parents are waiting." James said, leading Sirius over to where his parents were waiting.

"It's nice to see you two again." Mrs. Potter said, hugging them one at a time.

"How was your last year?" Mr. Potter asked.

"Let's just say, interesting." James answered. Then he turned and smiled at Lily who had just appeared through the barrier with Augustine right behind her.

"Come on boys. We have to apparate home." James' father said, leading them to a less crowded area so that no muggles would see.

Sirius waited for everyone else to apparate. As he looked around to make sure no one was watching him he caught Augustine's eye and smiled the smile the marauders were marked for. The smile that now was reserved only for her. Then he disappeared with a loud pop.
