Chapter Three: The Hogwarts Express

Disclaimer: sniff Must I repeat myself!?! No… I'm not J.K.Rowling.

The carriages pulled up in front of the group of Gryffindors… and Alex… so everyone got on and took a seat. Alice sat next to Frank, Kris next to Sirius, and Rori sat next to Derek. Kat sat down in-between Lily and Remus, Lily was sitting by Kris, Remus was in-between Kat and Alex, then James was next to Alex, and Peter was on the end.

"What are we going to do bout the train arrangements?" Kris asked intellectually.

"Everyone is going to have to sit on someone's lap if we all want to fit in one compartment," James added. Rori grabbed Derek's hand, Alice grabbed Frank's hand, and Kris grabbed Sirius's hand. "That leaves me and Lily, Kat and Remus, and Alex and Peter."

"Oh, HELL no!" Alex begged. Everyone laughed except Peter and Alex. "Come on guys it's not funny, YOU," she said turning to look at Peter, "Are sitting on the compartment floor, and if you don't want to, them get the hell out of our compartment!" Sirius rolled his eyes.

Sirius asked.

"Let's just say I know his 'Dirty little secret'," Alex said with a smirk toward Kat, Lily, Kris, Rori, Alice and Frank. Kat started coughing and so did Lily and Kris they fell off of the bench choking and then all 6 people started laughing. The girls were on the floor, and Frank was trying his hardest to stay in his seat.

"Shut up Alex, you don't know anything," Peter argued over the girls and Frank's laughter.

"Oh, I happen to know quite a bit… are you forgetting who I'm roommates with." Alex smirked.

"Shut up! Please Alex don't let them here you, you don't understand!" Peter begged quietly.

"Don't understand, don't understand! You sound like Severus!" Alex screamed close to tears, everyone stopped laughing and looked at Alex sympathetically. She sent them a fake smile and then just turned away and gave up the fight with Peter.

"Guys," Kat said, "Look, we're there." Everyone looked up and saw that we had indeed pulled up to the station. We grabbed our things and got off of the carriage safely heading towards the train. Kat ran up to a large man with a long curly beard and gave him a huge hug. "I'll miss you Hagrid."

"Oh, on with you now, on with you. Wait, I forgot here," Hagrid said with a heavy British accent holding out a leather book. Kat opened it and found pictures of her and her friends throughout their years of Hogwarts. Kat started crying as she looked at some of the pictures with her and her best friend Penni, she was murdered by Voldemort over Christmas break. She was a muggle born and Penni met the girls and Frank on the Hogwarts Express their first at Hogwarts, anyway when Voldemort came to her house over the break he asked Penni to join him (she is a whole year older then them) and she had top grades for all the 7th years and she was head girl, Penni of course, refused and then fought for both her family's and her own life. Voldemort killed her entire family that day, and everyone has been sad ever since. But Dumbledore told them to realize that Penni died fighting for what she believed in, and if anything they should have been proud. So they stopped grieving over Penni and decided to look at her as an inspiration, as their hero, but no matter what they did, they would always miss her smiling face.

"What's wrong?" Remus asked Kat worriedly when he saw her start to cry. He came up next to her and saw the picture she was holding was of Kat and Penni with their arms around each other smiling at the camera. Penni had her head girl badge on and Kat had her Prefect badge on. Remus turned to Kat and hugged her; he knew how hard looking at those pictures must have been for her. She was supposed to be at Penni's house for Christmas, but her plane was delayed and she came a day late, Kat could've been dead as well. "It's okay Kat, remember what Dumbledore said, she's a hero." He looked into Kat's eyes and she nodded and then fell onto him crying. She wiped away her tears and then hugged Hagrid one more time to thank him for the gift.

"Come on, let's get on the train," Lily called to her friends with tears in her eyes. They all nodded and started to make their way into the luggage compartment. They put their owls, cats, and toads away and then brought the rest of their luggage to the first empty compartment that they saw. Everyone took their seats after putting their things up above their heads. Kat sat on Remus's lap (which was funny because they both like each other only they are to shy to tell each other that themselves even though everyone else in the school including the professors know that they like each other) by the window. Rori and Derek sat across from them also by the window. Next to Kat and Remus were Alice and Frank and then to the right of Alice and Frank was Alex. Next to Rori and Derek were Lily and James and then to the right of Lily and James were Kris and Sirius. The train whistled and all of the few scattered students outside quickly jumped aboard as the train started to slowly pull away from the station. Rori and Kat looked back and their teachers and the castle and started to cry.

"What's the matter babe?" Derek asked sweetly to Rori who was balling.

"Thanks for ignoring me Derek!" Kat sat with a small laugh through her heavy tears. Lily, Kris, and Alice didn't know why they were crying at first, but then when realization hit them they started crying too.

"Why the bloody hell is everyone crying?" Sirius asked irritated, earning a slap in the arm from Kris.

"It's our last year here next year and, I don't think I'll be able to say goodbye," Kat explained tears streaming down her face.

"The teachers, the classes, the castle itself!" agreed Lily.

"And don't forget," Alice added with a cough, "After Hogwarts we're all going to get split up, I just know it!" The guys all looked at each other, everyone wished that it wouldn't be true, but I mean, you can't predict what's going to happen in the future.

"You're probably right," Frank agreed. All the girls just looked down at the floor. "But, that doesn't mean that we won't still all be friends, or even that we won't keep in touch. It only means that we won't see each other as much, our friendship could never break apart if it wasn't meant to, and I think that if our friendship was meant to break up, it would have bloody happened already! So you girls better pick your heads up, because no amount of miles can ever truly separate us, unless we let it."

After Frank's amazing speech everyone just got quiet, the girls all had head aches from crying and the boys just sat their staring at the girls that were on their laps. Kat was usually very shy around Remus, because she likes him, you might even say that she loves him, but on the train, she was so tired that she was sitting on his lap with her head on his chest and his head on her head, and his arms around her, and they were both fast asleep.

"Aww, don't they just look so cute together!" Lily cooed.

"Shut- up," Kat and Remus said in unison and then blushed. Even though they were now both aware the position that they were sitting in, they still didn't move, because it was very comfortable. Suddenly music started playing and Frank started laughing.

"Is she asleep?" Frank asked pointing towards Kat.

"YO, KAT!" Kris screamed. Kat didn't answer. "Yupp, why?" Everyone laughed at Kris's method but hey, it worked!

"Listen closely to the song," Frank explained. The compartment suddenly became absolutely silent. You could slightly make out these words:

If I could find you now things would get better

We could leave this town and run forever

I know someplace somehow we'll be together

Let your waves crash down on me and take me away

Rori and Alice just started giggling uncontrollably. Lily and Kris just had slight smiles on their faces, but they were too tired to laugh. They also ended up falling asleep with their heads on James's and Sirius's chests.

"Hey Derek, now that Yolanda and Jerome are gone, who do you think will be the Gryffindor Quittitch captain?" Rori asked him honestly.

"Probably either Kat or James, they are both amazing Chasers, and you of course are an amazing beater, along with Sirius. I'm okay at being seeker, but I'm actually surprised I've been on the team since fourth year," Derek said modestly.

"Shut up Derek, you rock! We've never lost a game since second year… psshh it's all me and Rori! I'm just kidding, it's all because of the most awesome beaters and the two awesome chasers James and me and the most awesome seeker Hogwarts has ever seen," Kat exclaimed with a smile.

"Finally she's awake!" Alex called annoyed. Lily and Kris laughed. "Yes, everyone's awake… lets play a game… ENTERTAIN ME!"

"Fine how about… truth or dare," Alice said.

"Okay babe, but how about we make it interesting," Sirius said earning a giggle from Alice and a glare from Frank.

"How so?" Kris asked intrigued.

"For every dare you don't do, you have to take off an article of clothing. And to make sure everyone's telling the truth when they say truth they have to take veritiserum before the answer," James continued for Sirius who nodded his head.

"How do you guys do that, I always feel so left out, the girls and Frank can read each other's minds, and James, Sirius, and Remus can read each other's minds, even though most of the time Remus just ignores it," Derek complained with a smile.

"Honestly, I have no idea," Frank said with a chuckle, "I guess when you just know someone that well then it makes it easier to know what they are thinking, applying, or going to say," Frank explained.

"What is it with you and speeches today?" Lily asked Frank curiously.

"Search me," muttered Frank and everyone laughed.

"Oh, can I start? Oh well, deal with it cause, psshh I am!" Rori stated attitudinally. "Okay, James truth or dare?"

"Dare," James replied with a yawn.

"Peck Sirius on the lips," Rori squealed. Lily and Kris fell off of the guys and they were laughing so hard.

"Do I have to?" James whined.

"It's either that or taking off an article of clothing," answered Kat and Frank together. Then they looked at each other with huge smiles and gave each other high fives.

"Fine," James gave in. He walked up to Sirius and quickly kissed him on the lips. "Does anyone have mouth wash?"

"Oh, yeah, let me just check my back pocket," Kris mocked. James stuck his tongue out at Kris and then left the compartment to go and brush his teeth.

"Okay," James said pulling Lily on his lap despite her protest, "Lily truth or dare?"

"Crap!" Lily shrieked. "Umm… truth?"

"Who do you like?" James asked with a smirk. The girls (and Frank) started laughing.

"Wow, what a waist of a question," Alice said, "Don't bother giving her the veritiserum, we'll tell you if she's lying."

"Macaroni," Lily whispered so quickly no one including herself could hear her.

"What was that didn't catch it babe?" James smirked.

"I said Macaroni," Lily answered with a smile.

"So true," Frank said with a grin and a sigh.

"You never said I couldn't use his nick name," Lily cheated.

"But that's…" James started.

"Completely fair," finished Alex, "Lily just go."

"Kris, truth or dare?" Lily asked.

"Dare," Kris responded simply.

"I dare you to give… Remus a lap dance," Lily said laughing.

"WHAT?!?" screamed Kris, Sirius, and Remus. Everyone else just laughed as Kris took off her shoes.

"Sirius, truth or dare," Kris asked with a sickly sweet smile on her face.

"Dare," Sirius answered nervously.

"Look, there's Snape go up to him, grind him while singing Don'cha," Kris said and everyone including Sirius laughed

"Okay, faggits, here I come," Sirius said jokingly. He walked straight over to Snape grinded him and sang, "Don'cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me!" Then he walked back into the compartment and winked at Snape before he closed the door.

"Omg Sirius I can't believe you just did that!" Kat laughed.

"Yeah, well… believe it. Remus, truth or dare?" he asked.

"Dare?" Remus said unsure.

"I dare you to SNOG not just kiss but SNOG Kat for fifteen seconds… we'll count," Sirius said with a HUGE smile on his face. Kat and Remus both blushed and then looked at each other but quickly glanced away.

"So what are you guys gonna do?" Derek asked. Kat looked at Remus and he looked back, they were both still blushing.

"On the count of three… one, two three!" Sirius called and they kissed.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen," everyone counted as slowly as they possibly could. Remus and Kat broke apart both flushed and breathing heavily. Kat quickly turned and looked out the window. She was still blushing. Remus couldn't stop looking at Kat, and everyone noticed this except her because her mind was off… who knows where… everyone in the compartment was smiling.

"Umm… Alice truth or dare," Remus asked.

"Truth," answered Alice.

"Do you love Frank, like real love?" Remus asked.

"Umm…" Alice started, then she swallowed the veritiserum, "Yes, and I always will." Frank hugged her tightly and then kissed her. Alice was crying really hard.

"I love you too," Frank said. Everyone looked at them because they just looked so sweet.

"Okay, let me see, Kat, truth or dare?" Alice asked with a smirk on her face.

"I hate you; I know what both are…" Kat said glaring at Alice.

"Well, dare is worse then truth… well depending on how you look at it, but I would go with truth," Lily said laughing

"Fine, truth, and because I know the question…" Kat said.

"NO! You have to wait for me to say the question before you answer it otherwise only us girls and Frank will know what you're talking about," Alice cried.

'Exactly!" Kat fought back.

"Do you like Remus?" Alice, Lily, Kris, Rori, Alex, and Frank screamed.

"I hate you guys…" Kat said then they made her drink the veritiserum, "Yes." The marauders all looked at Kat un-surprised, well that is everyone except Remus he looked really surprised.

"Really?" Remus asked.

"Yeah," Kat blushed, "why?"

"No reason…" Remus commented.

"Truth or dare?" Kat asked him quickly. Everyone laughed.

"SHIT!" Remus laughed. "Truth."

"Why?" Kat asked in complete focus.

"Because I like you too," he said without even taking the veritiserum. Kat smiled and then kissed him full on the mouth. Then Alex started singing this song:

I wanna stand with you on a mountain

I wanna bathe with you in the sea

I wanna lay like this forever

Until the sky falls down on me

The girls and Frank started laughing, but no one else got why this was so funny.

"Kat?" Remus asked. She turned to look at him again.

"Yeah?" she asked.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" he asked her. All of the girls screamed so loud the guys covered their ears.

"Is that a yes? Come on Kat, your leaving the guy hanging there!" Sirius said smiling.

"Yes," Kat said smiling. Remus took something out of his jean pocket and put it in his hand so no one could see. The guys all smiled, knowing what it was.

"Close your eyes," he said to her. She closed her eyes and he put on a silver chain with a silver heart with 25 real diamonds on it around her neck. She opened her eyes and tears formed at she saw the glistening necklace that must have cost a fortune! She turned around and hugged Remus and then kissed him passionately.

"Aww, isn't that so cute?" Alice whispered to Frank.Then Kat turned back around and everyone started clapping. Kat and Remus just laughed at their friends and decided to move on with the game.

"Rori, truth or dare?" Remus asked. Kat leaned back against his chest and he wrapped his arms around her.

"Dare," Rori said.

"I dare you…"Remus started, "I don't know let me think." Kat whispered something in Remus's ear and he started laughing and then nodded. "I dare you to peck Kris on the lips."

"What happens if you don't let someone do a dare to you?" Kris asked automatically.

"Then both people have to take off and article of clothing," Derek explained.

"Shit, I have to take off my shirt!" Kris screamed. To this Sirius wolf whistled. "To bad for you I'm wearing a spaghetti strap shirt under this." She took off the short sleeve shirt and a thin, lacey, v-neck spaghetti strap shirt was the only thing preventing her from being there in her bra.

"Guys," Lily said pointing out the window, "We're here."
