A/N: Here's the fourth chapter...

Hogwarts Sweet Hogwarts

On the morning of September 1st, Lily got up early. She had already eaten breakfast and was reading quietly when everyone else entered the dining room.

"Hey, Lily," Bella greeted, yawning.

"Hey," Lily replied, not taking her eyes of her book, which was conveniently turned upside-down.

"Sooo... What's up?" Bella asked.

"What do you mean? Nothing's up," Lily said quickly, putting her book away.

"Well, let's see," Bella said, "You get up way too early in the morning, to do what? Read a book in your bathrobe. Does that count?"

"I'm just...I'm fine, Bella," Lily said, "I...woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep. Now get off my back."

That was partly true. She had woke up early and tried to get back to sleep, but couldn't. It had been roughly a week since the dream, yet Lily was still brooding over it. A part of her said get over it, Evans, it was just a stupid prank! Don't let Potter get to you! But a little voice in the other, sensible part of Lily's brain said this isn't like the other pranks the Marauders play. They gain absolutely nothing from it, and it wasn't humiliating or anything. Lily tried to push that thought away as she ate her breakfast.

At 10:30, everyone set out for King Cross Station. They took the Knight Bus, much to everyone's displeasure. They arrived at King Cross Station at 10:55.

"Hurry up! We're going tobe late!" Lily shouted to her friends.

"We're coming!" Bella shouted back.

They ran through the barrier between Platforms 9 and 10. A moment later, James and Sirius were there, quickly followed by Remus. The boys saw their other friend, Peter Pettigrew and ran to meet him.

In the meantime, Lily, Bella and Alice and found Emmeline Vance, their friend in Ravenclaw.

"Hey Lily, Bella, Alice!" She said. "You'd better come quick, the train's about to leave."

The girls climbed onto the train just in time.

"Whew, that was close," Bella said.

They managed to find an empty compartment. Lily didn't sit, though.

"I need to go to the prefect compartment. The head boy and I are supposed to give directions to the prefects," She explained." I'll be back in a while."

"Who's Head Boy?" Asked Emmeline.

Lily didn't say anything. She looked like she was trying not to blow up. Instead, she walked out of the compartment and slammed the door.

"What's wrong with her?" Emmeline asked curiously.

"The Head Boy is James Potter," Alice said, "Lily thinks Dumbledore's gone crazy." Emmeline giggled.

Suddenly, the compartment door slid open. On the other side were 4 identical girls. They all had blue eyes and golden curls.

"Hi!" said one of them. "I'm Patricia Atner, and these are my sisters, Penelope, Perinda, and Pindovia. We're quadruplets. Is there enough room for all of us?"

"No, but we do have 1 seat left," Bella said, gesturing to the seat in front of her.

"Thanks," Patricia said, "I think I'll take it." Her sisters left and Patricia sat down.

"Hey, I'm Bella, and this is Emmeline and Alice," Bella said.

"So, I haven't seen you around before. Are you and your sisters transfer students?" Emmeline asked.

"Yep," Patricia said, "We were supposed to go to Hogwarts, but they made a mistake and mixed it up with Hagnats. It was a nightmare. Hags everywhere." She shuddered.

"What year are you in?"

"Um, well, we didn't have years at Hagnats, but I'm 17 in October," Patricia said, shrugging.

"Then you're in 7th year with us!" Emmeline exclaimed.

It started to rain as the day progressed. At one, the food trolley came and the girls bought themselves lunch. Lily came back at one-thirty.

"I'm back," Lily said, "And- oh, hello, I don't believe I know you..."

"This is Patricia Atner, and she's going to be at Hogwarts this year. She's one of quadruplets." Bella explained.

"Hi," Lily said. "I'm Lily Evans. Nice to meet you."

"Lily's Head Girl and a top student," Bella said proudly. Lily blushed. Patricia smiled.

"I'm honored." She said.

"Anyway," Lily said, "I think Potter and his little goons are up to something really big. They're leading us into a false sense of security."

"Who?" Patricia asked, looking confused.

"James Potter," Bella said, "Head Boy, Captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch Team, top student, leader of the Marauders...blah, blah, blah."

Patricia laughed. Lily looked sour.

"He's in love with Lily," Emmeline explained, giggling.

"Not that she'll ever like him back," Bella teased, "Right Lily?"

Lily rolled her eyes.

"I'll take that as a yes," Bella said, a grin flitting across her face. Lily threw a chocolate frog at her and missed.

"You need to practice on your aim, Lily," said a male voice from outside the compartment.

"What do you want, Potter?" Lily asked coldly as the compartment door slid open and James Potter walked in with his friends.

"Nothing," he said, "Except you."

"Really?" She asked, "Well, if you don't get out of here, I will!"

Lily pushed them out and shut the compartment door with a bang.

"So...I'm guessing that was James Potter?" Patricia asked apprehensively.

"Unfortunately," Lily replied, breathing loudly, "yes,"

It was silent for a moment. Then-

"Well...I think he's kinda cute," Patricia said, shrugging.

"You and every other girl on this cursed planet," Lily said.

"He didn't seem that bad," Patricia told her, "Besides, he really seems to like you."

"Like me? You're kidding, right? Potter's an arrogant, self-centered jerk. The only one he could possibly like is himself." Patricia shrugged again.

"Anyone for a game of Gobstones?" asked Bella, "I got a new set for my birthday."

Emma and Patricia agreed. Alice decided to read, and Lily took out a thin green book.

Dear Diary,

I'm on the train ride to Hogwarts, so excuse me if my handwriting is messy. There's a new girl at Hogwarts, well, actually, 4 new girls. They're quadruplets. One of them, Patricia, is sitting with us(Emmeline, Alice, Bella, me) She(and her sisters) are transfer students. They're in my grade. Patricia seems nice enough, except for the minor detail that she likes James Potter...

Oh, don't get me started on him. How in the world did Potter get the Head Boy badge??? WHAT was Dumbledore thinking? Did his detention record somehow get erased? And if that's not enough, he has to be all sweet on me, acting as if he likes me or something. Does he actually think I believe him? It's so damn annoying. I know I have this outburst every two days, but I can't help it. James Potter is just the most irritating boy to walk the earth. And I'm the unluckiest girl to come across him.

Lily Evans

Sighing, Lily closed her diary and watched Emmeline, Patricia, and Bella play Gobstones. Emmeline was winning, and Patricia wasn't far behind. Poor Bella, who had suggested it in the first place, was losing badly.

Meanwhile, back at the Marauders Compartment-

"Right, Prongs, real smooth," Sirius commented.

"Shut up, Padfoot," James said, kicking the ground and sighing.

"You know, barging in like that was really stupid," Remus said, frowning, "Now she knows you were eavesdropping."

James muttered something like 'wasn't my fault' and 'didn't mean to'.

"Shouldn't we start to plan our next prank?" Peter spoke up.

"Wormtail's right," Sirius said "We might lose our status otherwise."

They hovered together, talking in whispers and planning their prank. James added a few words like 'yeah' and 'I'll do that', but his heart wasn't really in it. The fun of prank playing had somehow worn off during the summer.

Lily, Bella, and Alice sat down at the Gryffindor table and watched as Professor McGonagall led the first years(and the Atners) up to the sorting hat. There was a considerably large amount of whispering going on, because Patricia, Penelope, Perinda, and Pindovia were hardly the size of most first years.

The sorting hat sang its song (A/N I really didn't know how to make one, so please excuse me).

"Patricia Atner," called Professor McGonagall from her list.

"GRYFFINDOR!"

"Penelope Atner,"

"HUFFLEPUFF!"

"Perinda Atner,"

"RAVENCLAW!"

"Pindovia Atner,"

"SLYTHERIN!"

"Matthew Brown,"

"RAVENCLAW!"

"Yvonne Caburn,"

"SLYTHERIN!"

and so on...

After everyone got sorted, Professor Dumbledore stood up.

"Welcome, all, to another fantastic year at Hogwarts," he said, "I have a few announcements to make. This year, we greet 4 new transfer students from Hagnats, Patricia, Penelope, Perinda, and Pindovia will you please stand?"

They stood up nervously. Penelope waved slightly.

"Yes, very good, ladies. Now, my second announcement is to tell you that Mr. Filch has added 12 new objects to the Forbidden Items list.If you wish to see it, it is posted on his office's door. The last, though not least, announcement warns new students that there is a reason the Forbidden Forest is called that. And now, our feast..." Professor Dumbledore finished.

The golden plates instantly filled with food of all kinds. Lily dug in, but couldn't help noticing that the Marauders were stealing peeks at the Slytherin table with extremely smug expressions.

Uh oh, Lily thought, Now what?

She was about to question them when shrieks erupted from the Slytherin table. Lily whirled around. The Slytherin's foods had turned into bugs of every variety and were crawling all over them.

Professor McGonagall came over to see what the uproar was about. She took one look at the Slytherins and vanished the bugs with a swish of her wand.

"10 points from Gryffindor and detention for Potter, Black, Lupin, and Pettigrew," she said sternly.

"But we don't even have any points yet," complained Sirius.

"Yes we did," Remus said gloomily, "Every house starts with 50 points, remember?"

"Oh. Right." Sirius replied, running out of excuses.

"Not even one hour into the school year and they've already lost us 10 points," Lily said furiously.

"I know," Alice said, "I mean, Frank would never-,"

At that moment, Bella groaned.

"Are you still going out with him?" she asked.

"Well, uh, yeah," Alice said defensively.

"Why?"

"Because I like him, you dolt," Alice said.

"Why?"

"Because he's nice and sweet,"

"Why?"

"Because... because...oh shut up."

"Make me,"

"I will,"

"Do they always act like this?" Patricia asked Lily.

"No, just when they're talking about Frank. Unfortunately, that's a lot of the time."

A/N I know... strange way to end a chapter.
