---------

The rest of the morning went by at normal speed. Harry got dressed, finished packing and went down for some breakfast. Harry, Ginny, Hermione, Ron and Mrs.Weasley and Lupin all arrived at platform 9 ¾ with 22 minutes to spare.

'You be good!' 'Of course we will mum, me and Ron are prefects!' said Ginny meekly, casting a glance at Harry grinning. Ginny hadn't told her mum yet.

'PREFECT? Oh Ginny!' Ginnys mum put her into a huge death-grip hug.

'Thanks mum...we should board the train... you know' 'yes...yes..I think you should. Oh Harry you might have a hard time this week... but it will all be over soon enough remember that dear.'

'What?' Harry was confused, why would he have a hard time?

Harry let it slipped waved his last good-bye to Lupin and boarded the train.

'Umm..Harry as you know Ron and I...have to go to the Prefects compartment again...oh yes and Ginny.'

Harry really didn't give a damn if Ron went or not...but Ginny and Hermione?

'guesse is another trip with loony and Neville.' Muttered Harry as we walked over and started to peer into compartments. Sure enough he found Luna Lovegood and Neville Longbottom sitting in a compartment together.

"Hi Harry!" said Neville 'Good summer?'

"It was okay' admitted Harry as he sat down beside Luna "Find all your stuff?'

"What?' asked Luna looking confused. "OH!' she said as her eyes grew bigger. "yeah I did" Harry laughed remembering how last year Luna confessed to him that many people "hide my stuff"

"And how about Sirius? You doing OK with that?" He eyes changed as she said that they looked sad, yet caring.. Neville who also knew what she was talking about had changed his facial expression to one of care.

"Well..no..not really." Harry said "Its hard you know?'

They sat in silence for a bit. Then the train started to move.

Neville broke the silence "Say Harry how where your OWL's?"

Glad that somebody had started to talk Harry replied with an enthusiastic "GREAT!" He fished around in is pocket and drew out the paper and Handed it to Neville.

"yeah you did good! I got only two 'O's." aid Neville looking a bit sad

"But one was for..." he pointed to a book bearing a huge picture of a purple and blue plant beside him "and....you'll never believe it....Defence against the Dark Arts!"

Harry smiled...he rarely say Neville look so proud of himself "Of course I believe it! You did great in the DA...you too Luna" he said as he saw Luna looking a bit sad for being left out of the conversation.

"So who do you think the new teachers gonna be?' Asked Luna as the trio dived into a discussion of all the possibilities. All Harrys worrys where pushed from his mind , eve what Mrs. Weasley had said about having a hard week.
