Chapter 3

About a year later Virginia was back and with some new friends to board the train. They had caused quite a commotion because of how they looked and acted, although the quartet was thrilled about it. They settled near the back of the train and laughed remembering some of the people's faces.

The quartet was found about ten minutes later as the train was starting to leave by a trio. The new comers were a lot like those sitting down for they dressed the same and their attitude seemed about equal. It was silent as everyone looked at each other, but one of those in the doorway spoke up.

"Hey, you all need to get out. This is our compartment." The one who spoke seemed oddly familiar to Virginia. Then it came back to and a smirk graced her lips as she stood.

"Blaise Zambini! How dare you talk to me like that?" She voiced. The boy looked at her confused as his dark brown eyes quirked up. He had changed since they had said good-bye over a year ago. His old boring black hair was spiked and he had changed the way he had dressed. He was wearing black vans with red laces, black baggy pants, and a red shirt. He seemed to be slowly recovering from his confusion.

"Little Red?" He asked hoping he was right.

"You know I'm not that little." He gave her a look, and she smiled. "Ok, so I am little but you know great things come in ..."

"Small packages, you need to come with a new excuse. Come here and give me hug." She walked over into a big bear hug. She laughed as he picked her up and spun her around. She had missed him so much. The two stopped as they heard a small coughing in the corner.

"Sorry to interrupt you, but would mind introducing everybody, it is kind of awkward." One of Virginia's American friends announced.

"Oops. Okay this is Blaise everyone. I told you guys about him, remember? And this Andrew McCarthy, but we call him Spike." Virginia stated as she pointed to a young guy with spiked blonde hair, blue eyes and a lot of muscles. He was wearing black vans with black laces, black baggy pants and a navy blue baggy tang top. "That's Emma Giles." Virginia then pointed to a timid looking girl with shoulder length black hair, and dark brown eyes. She wore grey vans with white laces, grey baggy cargo pants, and a white shirt that said in grey lettering, "Angel." Then Virginia pointed to the last girl sitting down, the one who had spoken up earlier, "And this is Catherine Kendricks but call her Cat or you are signing up for a beat down." Indeed the last girl did look quite intimidating. She had dirty blonde hair, and intense green eyes. You could even see the trace of muscles along her arms from her wearing an army print tang top that read, "Army Brat." She was also wearing extremely baggy black pants and black vans with army print laces. "Okay, now it's my turn to introduce my group." Blaise stated. "This is Pansy Parkinson." He pointed to a girl who was quite short compared to the two guys around her, but she didn't seem the type to mess with, with her long brown hair and ice blue eyes. She was wearing white shoes with baby blue laces, baby blue baggy pants and a small white tang top. Blaise then pointed to the guy standing next to her, "This is Matt Conner." Matt had spiked brown hair and had light brown eyes. He was wearing brown shoes with white laces, baggy blue jeans, and a white tang top with a dark brown over shirt. "Okay introductions are over, let's sit."

"Wait, what is dear Red's name?" Pansy questioned.

"It is Virginia Weasley."

"My, aren't you different then the rest of the rodent pack." Pansy smirked.

"And my dearest Pansy you haven't changed one bit. Although your biting remarks don't hurt as much as your bark does." Virginia stated with a smirk just as large as Pansy's.

"Ah but Virginia I am not a dog but a cat haven't you seen my claws."

"Why yes I see them now but honey you might want to file them some time they are quite dull."

"Ouch I like you even if you are a Weasley."

"Wow thanks so much." Virginia sarcastically spoke finishing with a small smirk. Pansy just laughed and held out her hand which Virginia took. They shook and laughed.

"Okay girls. I hope you are done now." Blaise interrupted. "Let us all sit down and get to know each other."

"Blaise you just sounded really gay." Virginia laughed.

"Well dear me, I forgot to tell you." Blaise squeaked in a high girly voice.

"You are gay? Well that sucks. I thought I was attracted to you and now I guess I'll never know if I truly had feelings." Cat frowned.

"How do you find out if you truly have feelings?" Blaise asked.

"Make out furiously." Cat uttered

"Really?" Blaise asked.

"Yep." She said while holding her hands up and looking at her nails. Blaise gulped, knowing he had really screwed up. Virginia had been right before, he had been eyeing her. He had immediately felt attracted towards her.

"You know I was kidding about being gay, right?" Blaise asked hopefully.

"No really?" Cat replied with every syllable filled with sarcasm. Blaise blushed.

"Okay, entertainment is over let's all sit down." Virginia smiled suppressing gallons of laughter. She knew that Blaise liked Cat and Cat probably liked Blaise back, but Cat wouldn't dare make it easy for Blaise.

"Yeah lets." Blaise announced and sat down next to Cat in Virginia's old seat trying to talk to her as she sat and read a magazine. Matt sat next to Blaise and struck up a conversation with Spike who sat across from him. Then Pansy sat in between Spike and Emma and started asking questions. Virginia just stood there since all the seats had been taken. Virginia squeaked as the door opened and someone grabbed her around the waist.
