The New Girl.
It was raining outside. The raindrops pattered down the window gently but nothing was going to break the people inside the carriages mood.
"I guess that makes it seven games in a row then, Wormtail, old chum?" arrogantly proposed Sirius, leaning back against the hard carriage seat.
"Yep, Sirius, I think it does. Or it might be eight. I dunno. Can you do something else now?" asked James who was sitting watching.
"No, no. I am going to beat him. I am." The mouse haired boy who was sitting opposite Sirius chanted.
"Ummm. After seven games, I don't think so. Why don't you play Remus. He's not doing anything." Sirius asked, looking bored and fed up of his friend going on about beating him. He turned to James, raised his eyebrows, got up and stretched then with his best friend went out of the compartment they were in.
"Sooo. What do you want to do?" asked Sirius. He just wanted to get out of there, and after facing seven games of exploding snap he didn't even want to play in the first place, no one could really blame him."Well. I was thinking of finding Lil and asking her bout her holiday. What d'you think?" said James, looking down the corridor expecting a sign to be flashing over the carriage Lily was in. Sirius just gave him this look that said I don't want to but I'll go anyway. James smiled at him, messed up his already messy hair and they went in search of his girlfriend.
MEANWHILE
"Wow. So you've come all the way from Devon? Wow. That's so far away. Oh my gosh. Did you like live on a farm? Cause if you did I wouldn't mind, it's just I thought that people who live in the countryside did." babbled Izzie, staring intently at the blond haired new girl opposite her. The girl smiled and was about to say something when Lily cut in.
"Don't you ever shut up? that could have offended her you know. Honestly, sometimes you just..."
"It's ok. I'm not offended," smiled Maddi, the New Girl as everyone was calling her. "Nope, I didn't live on a farm. I lived in this house. It was nice, but Dad figured that it would be easier for me if we moved to London, and he could get a better job."
"Wow. You're lucky. My Dad would've just driven me all the way here at one in the morning. Nice or what??" Nikki stated.
"Hmm. I just want everyone to like me. And I hope I'm not far behind everyone else. Can you give me any clues what you've done?" Maddi worriedly asked.
"You'll be fine. I know that you've done exactly the same work as us. But about school. You've been put with us in Gryffindor. That's good. Right. Slytherins are evil. They don't like us, we don't like them. Don't speak to anyone of them, they'll just hex you. But if anyone of them does do something, tell us and we'll go curse them. Now, the boys in our house year are nice but... they prank anything. They're better now but still kinda idiots. I'm going out with James and Nikki's going out with Remus. They're both sweet. James is the kind of leader and Remus is the good boy, who didn't use to flirt with anything wearing a skirt. Then there's Sirius. He has an average of a girl a week but he is smart and he won't do anything to you. Peter's just this little oddball who follows them around." Lily informed her new friend.
"Right. Sounds nice?!" Maddi exclaimed.
"Yeah. We are. They're so complimentary about us, aren't they Padfoot?" James said, standing in the frame of the door, hair suitably messed up, looking cute.
"Yeah. They are aren't they?" Sirius said, coming in pushing past James. He looked at Maddi, smiled and sat down next to her.
"Ignore what they said about me. I'm a good boy really. It's only a girl every two weeks." He winked at her.
"Cool." Maddi whispered, clearly intimidated by the boys presence.
"Oi, leave her alone." Nikki yelled at Sirius.
"Well... Would her have a name? I'm Sirius." He said as he introduced himself.
Maddi looked up the arm that was stretched out in front of her, taking in the long black hair that came down to the boys' elbows, the dark hazel eyes and the gorgeous body of the guy sitting next to her.
"Hi. I'm Maddi. Pleased to meet you." Maddi said as she shook the boys' hand. A spark of electricity crept up her arm as she did so. Hmm, she thought, interesting. Wonder why that happened.
Ok. What do you think. This is my first one, so be kind please. No flames, not interested in them. I am interested however in constructive criticism or any plot developments you think could happen. If I get reviews, I'll update. If I don't, I won't carry on with this, so please review. And I didn't think I needed to state this, but due to an unfortunate twist of fate, I do not own any characters from Harry Potter mentioned in this fic. If I did, Sirius wouldn't have died. I do own every other one though. And I'm not updating until I have had 10 reviews. Sorry but I need to know people actually like this, what I consider, junk. Some people might like it, but I won't know unless you review. He he.
