Author's Note: Yay, thanks for all the reviews! They just made my day so I started writing. I'm so glad everyone likes the story. Keep reviewing! Oh and if anyone was wondering Amanda is NOT related to JKR's Penelope Clearwater (Percy's girlfriend), and I am aware that the storeowner of the owl shop suddenly switched from a man to a woman, and I don't know how that happened but it is a female.
Etcies: Thanks! Sorry if you don't like the owl's name, but it just popped in my head so I used it. It's not like the owl is some major character anyways.
Kiwaussi: Thanks! I like Amanda too. But you'll definitely get to know more about her in the future chapters.
Rupertslilangel01: Yes it is going somewhere. I plan on taking this story all the way to Lily and James's deaths and probably a chapter or two beyond.
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. Only Bianca and Amanda.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Bianca, HURRY UP!" Amanda shouted pounding on the bathroom door.
It was the next morning on September 1st at 9:00 AM. The girls would be leaving at 11:00 to go back to Hogwarts.
Amanda was getting very annoyed. Bianca had been in the bathroom since she got up at 8:30.
"BIANCA!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"C'mon, Bianca. We need to get in the bathroom." Lily said standing in front of the door.
"I'm coming, I'm coming. Geez, Amanda, could you pound on the door any louder?" Bianca said with a smirk as she opened the door
Amanda made a face like "Ha, ha very funny" as she entered the bathroom
The girls said goodbye to Mr. and Mrs. Evans as they entered Platform 9 ¾ and onto the Hogwarts Express.
"Well, well. If it isn't the mudblood and her trusty side-kicks." A cold voice said from behind the girls. It was Lucius Malfoy.
"Shut it, Malfoy." Amanda said, the girls still had their backs turned
"You know I could, but that would take the fun out of everything!" Lucius said
"I'm warning you, Malfoy. Shut it or pay." Amanda said turning around, Bianca and Lily turned around and glared at Lucius.
"Ooh… I'm scared now!" Lucius mocked
"Don't say I didn't warn you." Amanda said before she socked Lucius in the face
The girls laughed as the entered their compartment.
Shortly after the cart lady came in their compartment.
"It's against the rules to punch kids on the train." The lady said
"Oh, my what ever to do you mean?" Amanda said in a sweet voice
"Did you punch Mr. Malfoy in the face?" the lady asked
"I'm afraid I did not." Amanda said
"Okay, then. Sorry for bothering you. Have a nice ride." The lady said before exiting their compartment. As soon as she left the girls started cracking up
"I can't believe she believed that!" Bianca said
"I just have a way with adults. It's my secret to getting out of detention." Amanda said
Lily rolled her eyes, just as the last people they would want to see entered. The Marauders.
Amanda narrowed her eyes, "How many times do we have to tell you four to LEAVE US ALONE."
"Could you please just give us a chance?" James asked
"Let me think… NO! Now get out!" Amanda said
"Please?" James said again, not budging from his spot in the entryway
"NO." Lily answered this time
"Look, five minutes. That's all we want." Sirius said
The girls exchanged glances, "Fine. No more than five minutes." Bianca said
"Great!" Sirius said as he placed himself in a seat next to Amanda. James sat next to Lily, Remus sat next to Bianca, and Peter sat on the available seat next to the door.
"All right, Prongs, Moony, let's take advantage of these five minutes and explain ourselves to these lovely ladies. Shall we?" Sirius said
"We shall." James replied, "Now. You all must think we're annoying, immature, and arrogant. Correct?"
"It's a miracle! He actually figured something out!" Amanda said over-enthusiastically and then returning to her scowl.
"Funny. Anyways, that's not the point. The point is that we're more than immature and annoying. If you all would just try to get to know us you would think so too. But instead you limit yourselves to our pranks and judge us towards that. Have you ever had a civil conversation with any of us? No. So how do you know all we are are arrogant, immature, and annoying?" James said
"Good point." Amanda said, "BUT, the problem is we don't care!"
"Actually, I would like to have a civil conversation with them." Lily said
"You have got to be kidding me, Lils." Bianca said
"No I'm not. What have we got to lose except a few minutes of our time? Let's find out just who the Marauders really are." Lily said
"Fine. Fifteen minutes." Amanda said
"Okay, great." James said high-fifing Sirius.
"So, James, what do you like to do for fun?" Lily asked
"Play Quidditch." He replied
"What's your favorite class?" Amanda asked James
"Defense Against the Dark Arts." Replied James
"What class are you best at?" Bianca asked
"Transfiguration." He replied
"Okay… Sirius." Amanda said, Sirius's head shot up
"What do you like to do for fun?" Amanda asked him
"Play Quidditch." He said
Amanda rolled her eyes, "Of course, I should've known. What's your favorite class?"
"Astronomy." Sirius replied
"What class are you best at?" Bianca asked
"Astronomy." Replied Sirius
"What class are you worst at?" Lily asked
"Astronomy." Sirius said with a grin, "No, I'm only kidding. Charms."
"Remus." Bianca said, Remus quickly looked at her
"Hmm?" he asked
"What do you do in your spare time?" Bianca asked
"Read." He replied
"What's your best class?" Amanda asked
"Defense Against the Dark Arts." He replied
"What's your favorite class?" Lily asked
"Defense Against the Dark Arts." Remus said
"Okay… well if you guys don't mind we'll see you later." Amanda said
"Right. See you." James said as he left the compartment, followed by Sirius, Remus, and Peter
When the boys left Amanda sighed in relief, "Finally. I thought they would never leave!"
"It's not that bad talking to them, you know." Lily admitted
"Lils, are you sick? Because that doesn't sound like something coming that would come out of your mouth." Bianca said
"You guys really. I mean that wasn't torture and you know it." Lily said
"It wasn't torture, but it wasn't fun either. Let's change the subject. Who do you think will win the World Cup this year?" Amanda asked
"England." Bianca replied
"Are you kidding me? Our Seeker is a joke!" Amanda replied
"Don't you remember? We have a new Seeker this year. He's supposed to be really good." Lily said
"I still think Ireland will get it. Either them or Scotland." Amanda said
"I agree with you on Scotland, they have an awesome Keeper." Lily said
"Are you two out of your minds? England is a brilliant team! They have to get the cup this year." Bianca said
"Ireland." Amanda said
"Scotland." Lily said
"England!"
"Ireland!"
"Scotland!"
"Ireland!"
"ENGLAND!"
"IRELAND!"
"SCOTLAND!"
That went on for the next thirty minutes until the train came to a stop at Hogwarts.
End Notes: Sorry about the short, boring chapter. Please review! (Oh and if anyone is wondering Bianca isn't the type of girl who last to look perfect she just takes a long time in the bathroom… lol)
