Chapter 2-Off to Hogwarts
"So I bought you new parchment and quills so you won't forget to write, There's a bag of galleons in your trunk an-"
"Mom! I'll be all right I've got eveything"
"I know, I'm sorry, just give me a hug all right" I hugged my mom. I don't know why she's getting all upset I've always went away to school. Maybe because were in England and the house is farther away. " Don't forget to write, okay?"
"All right mom, Don't worry okay, I love you." Mom hugged me once more and whispered I love you in my ear. She was acting so weird, like someone would steel me from her.
"Marie can I have a talk with Em?" George said. "Of course" mom walked away and George stared down upon me (not very much though I'm not that short). "Okay Emily listen up, I don't want you getting in trouble or causing any problems you hear me. Your mother has enough to deal with and she doesn't need any of you nonsense-"
"What are you talking about mom doesn't have 'Anything going on' in her life" I said mockingly.
"Don't you talk back to me just be good-" that's about the time mom walked over and told me to run through the wall in front of me. I asked her if she was crazy and she told me to trust her so I said good-bye and ran through the wall. What I saw was just amazing. A bright red steam engine and so many kids boarding it. I grabbed my trunk and got on the train. Then I began the search for an empty cabin or one that had Lily in it. After minutes of searching and not succeeding in finding Lily I finally sat myself down in an empty cabin. A few minutes later some boys walked in and I recognized one of them.
"Oh, I'm sorry, do you mind if we sit in here with you" a short round boy asked.
"Of course not" I smiled when I saw Remus."Hey"
"Hey, how are you?" He answered with a warm smile. "I'm good" by now I noticed the other three boys staring at us.
"Oh, I'm sorry this is Sirius, James and Peter, guys this is Emily and she's new to Hogwarts." Now everything Lily had told me was flooding into my head, I guess it can't hurt to hang with them just as long as we don't get involved. The rest of the ride was fun we talked about a lot of things and Lily walked in to tell me she had to sit up front with Remus. Remus and her were prefects and prefects had to sit in the front cabins. When she came in James started acting all funny around her and ruffling up his hair and asking her how her summer was. I think he likes her.
I was totally comfortable around Peter, James and Sirius. I thought James was very handsome with his black messy hair and his nicely built body. He was funny too. Peter seemed a bit shy but really sweet. Sirius was really nice to he was a very hot/sexy guy, the kind were you thank their mothers for having them. He was also funny and very sarcastic. He flirted a lot which could become annoying but I didn't mind till a girl about 2 years younger than us walked in the cabin and jumped on his lap. Sirius was taken back at first but then got into it when this girl just started snogging him. When he realized that I had a disgusted look on my face he pushed her off and told her he'd see her later. She seemed a little mad about his sudden reaction and left the cabin. When she left we all started talking like it never happened.
"So Emily were are you from" Sirius asked.
"America but my parents are from England and Ireland" I answered.
"Why did they move back to England?"
"My step dad got a job transfer"
"Oh, what about your real dad?" James asked.
"He died before I was born."
"Sorry I-"
"It's okay you didn't know and besides he died before I was born I never even met him" I interjected.
"So is your step dad cool?" Peter asked.
"Not really" I chuckled. "He's a prick we don't get along at all"
"What does your mom think about that?"
"Well, she never really notices or when she does she tries and breaks us apart or calms us down." I answered.
So the rest of the train ride went smooth. Sirius, James and Petter were all really nice to me and we talked about a lot of things. When we got to Hogwarts my breathe was taken away by the sight of it. It was amazing. We took some horseless carriages to the school and sat at the tables. I suppose that Lily normally doesn't sit with the marauders but I was sitting next to James and Sirius and she sat with me anyway. The first years entered and were sorted, afterward Dumbledore our headmaster asked for silence and went over a list of school rules and finally announced that Hogwarts has a new student.
"Everyone this is Emily Demintrov" I stood up "Emily is from America and has come to join us for her 6th year and is in Gryffindor house but I know you all will make her feel welcome" He smiled at me and I sat back down. I was getting a lot of warm smiles from people around me and everyone was clapping (the Marauders were clapping the loudest). After the food magically appeared on our plates and we ate full dinners Lily and I went up to out common room and into the girls dormitories (were my stuff was waiting for me) and we plopped onto our beds and fell asleep.
