Chapter 2 - Nightmares on the train, Part I
Slowly the train began to move as late students rushed onto the train. Lily and her friends chatted merrily all the way out of London. Suddenly the door banged open and four boys, known as the infamous Marauders, steeped into the compartment.
One of them pronounced, "The four handsomest…wait…make that three handsomest men grace you with their presence you should feel very honored."
Vivian snickered loudly, " Men, you call yourselves men! That's a laugh! And I don't know what your definition of handsome is but…cough…you don't match mine."
The boys in fact were quite handsome, the one who had spoken had dark hair that lay messily on top of his head and deep chocolate brown eyes behind round rimed glasses that gave him an air of intelligence. His name was James Potter and Lily despised him. The one nearest to him was just as bad. His name was Sirius Black and he dark features and a laid back, mysterious attitude that many girls just couldn't resist. He had dark eyes that had the unnatural gift of making a girl melt. Standing to the right of James was Peter Petigrew a pudgy little boy with watery blue eyes. He was practically half the height of the other boys and his intelligence could be captured inside a jar with room to spare. His face held signs of someone who was permanently surprised and Lily and the others couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Last was Remus Lupin, he had a sexy unshaven look about him and had stunningly piercing blue eyes. His shaggy light brown hair shimmered in the faintest light and made you want to run your fingers through it just to see if it was really as soft as it looked. Lily couldn't help but look him up and down a bit, he had certainly grown over the summer and his tight shirt…well lets just say it suited him quite well.
"I think you've had a bit to much helium this summer Potter because your head has inflated to ten times its normal size." pronounced Lily, bitterness evident in her voice.
"Tut tut Lily dearest we don't need any more negativity in the world," said Sirius in a mock serious tone.
"Oh sod off, why don't you go and ruin some other girls life god knows you've all ready ruined mine over the summer!"
Her friends looked at each other with wide eyes and wondered what exactly had happened to Lily over the summer, she had been quite vague on the subject.
"Fine, fine we're leaving."
The Marauders filled out but Sirius turned around quickly before leaving and said, "Are you sure you don't want to play Quidditch with my golden snitches, Evans" (A/N my friend told this to me and it made me laugh so I put it in hear). Lily hurled a hex at him but missed, damn him and his Quidditch reflexes.
As soon as the boys were gone her friends broke out into mindless babble, "What did you mean you've already ruined mine!" "How could you not tell us!" "What the hell did you do over your summer!"
"You guys, you guys, I'll tell you everything don't worry, it was simply awful…"

I know I said it would be longer and it was, it was probably triple this, but I decided I wanted a sort of cliff hanger so I cut it in half. Part II is already written and will be posted soon if I get at least three more reviews that's all I'm asking for.
I want to thank Neptunestar for being my first reviewer! Thank you so much you made me feel really good about myself. I'm sorry that this is a short chapter but I do promise that they will get longer!
Thanks to everyone!
