Chapter Three.
"Hey! I'm back." Exclaimed Remus as he stepped back into the compartment. He took a seat next to James, who looked desperately at the door while ruffling up his hair in hope Lily would walk in.
" Where's Evans?" he asked turning to face Remus.
"She met one of her friends in the hall and decided to go talk with her for awhile." Remus replied nonchalantly. James shrugged as if he didn't care but really he was a little disappointed that Lily hadn't returned. He had just been thinking of the perfect thing to say to her when she came back. "So what have you three been up to this whole time?"
"Prongs over here's been moping about that Evans girl."
"Shutup Padfoot! I was not moping!" James retaliated by kicking Sirius in the shin.
"Oh no mate, not at all 'when are they going to be back, I wish I had been made prefect.' Nope I didn't here any moping."
"Shove off." James said slouching back into his seat. Just then the compartment door began to slide open. In walked a Slytherin 5th year with a curtain of greasy black hair, black eyes an extremely long hooked nose. The boy seemed not to realize the car he was stepping into because as soon as he put one foot into the compartment he was met with a malicious voice "Snivellus" James said causing the boy to jump.
"Potter." The boy said with immense disdain. "Obviously this is the wrong compartment." Just as the boy was turning to leave James jumped up.
"Impedimenta!" both James and Sirius yelled at the same time causing Snape to fall to the floor.
"Whadda you know," said Sirius, "I guess great minds really so think alike." James, Sirius and Peter all began to laugh ferociously. Remus however was staring at the window seemingly transfixed with the passing scenery.
" C'mon Moony you've got to admit that was pretty hilarious." Sirius said out of breath. James sat down clutching his sides inn pain from the laughter.
" Ya Moony that was hilarious you must admit."
" Sure was you guys, that was a classic. Impedimenta, Ha! I loved it" Peter said absolutely in hysterics over the incident.
"Calm down Wormtail," Remus said calmly "I don't know you guys, maybe you could have been easier on him."
Snape began to stir just as Lily came back to the compartment.
"What is going on here?" she screamed. "Potter this is obviously your little joke!" Lily bent down to help Snape up but when he got to his feet he just pushed her away and stormed off muttering under his breath. "Remus what happened in here?" she asked him looking into his large amber eyes, they looked so old to her.
"I didn't see what happened I had been looking for something in my bag. Sorry." He replied without so much as a break in the sentence.
"Oh I see well hopefully your able to restrain your friends next time" she said as she turned and left the compartment, but not before she shot James an extremely hateful look. 'Why doesn't Lupin stand up for himself, why wont he tell his friends off, he's so much better than them' she thought to herself as she walked along the hall. She stopped for a moment and thought 'It's almost like he owes them or something', and with that final thought she entered the compartment to join her friends.
A/N: This chapter was short. Ok so they all were but I couldn't resist throwing in a fight with Snape so ya please review.
