James pushed his trunk into the over the head compartment. Then slouched back into the seat opposite the rest of the Marauders.

Out the window James could see Severus, Regulus and Lucius waiting to get onto the train, James smiled slightly then jumped when Sirius came to his ear.

"Who you smiling at?"

James turned to him and gulped slightly, he glanced towards Remus who'd lowered his book then to Peter who was looking at someone out the window with the same intense stare James had when looking at Severus.

James shook his head then looked in Peter's eye line. James raised his eyebrow when he saw who Peter was looking at.

"Why are you admiring them, everyone knows they're going to be bad wizards" James said, Peter turned his head towards James and frowned slightly. "They will, rumour has it, a dark wizard will raise, he'll gather bad wizards – Slytherins and start a Wizarding War." James said, all three of the boys leaned in

"It'll be massive loads of people will be killed. And there's nothing anyone can actually do to stop it" James took a breath of air. "Do you remember what the hat said?" James asked, the rest exchanged a look then shook their heads.

"We'll be betrayed. One of us will be the betrayer. I don't know who, but one of us will die, one of us will be killed or at least everyone will think that they where killed and one will be framed for the murder" James gulped.

"How do you know this?"

"The Sorting Hat knows all" James whispered.

"What does the other one do?" Remus asked. James frowned. "You only mentioned three people, what about the forth?"

James frowned then shrugged.

"I'm not too sure, because he only said this three, but I think I know which of us it'll be – remember Divination?"

The three boys shook their heads.

"I got the Club, an attack and the Grim" James said

"What you're thinking you'll die?" Sirius asked "Prongs that's ridiculous"

"I know Padfoot, I know – I'm just saying" James said then jerked backwards as the train began moving,

"Prongs, are you scared?" Remus asked, a catch in his voice – he knew the Great James Potter, that guy was never scared, never disheartened.

James looked at Remus meeting eyes with reassurance.

"Not yet" James said then relaxed back watching as the scenery fly by the window, every possible surface was caked with snow. It looked beautiful.

"Hello Boys" Came a soft voice with just a hint of spice in it. James turned and saw Lily, he gulped slightly. He'd been thinking about Severus so much he'd actually nearly forgotten about Lily.

"Mind if I join you? Everywhere else is full" She asked with a slight smile. James nodded softly as Remus hid back behind his book, Peter looked out the window and Sirius nodded.

She smiled and came to sit in-between Sirius and James. Making both boys shuffle two spaces to create room. She kissed James lightly on the cheek. He smiled then rested on hand looking out the window.

"JAMES LOVES SIRIUS, SIRIUS LOVES JAMES" Regulus chanted dancing around Regulus then stopped "Oh no I've got it wrong, SEVERUS LOVES JAMES, JAMES LOVES SEVERUS"

"Alright that boy will die" James said standing with Sirius, they both went into their back pocket and revealed their wands.

"You're not allowed to do Magic outside of Hogwarts, you'll be expelled" Regulus squealed as he reached into his own pocket.

"So what?" Sirius said as he tapped his wand.

"What exactly makes you think we follow the rules to the letter" James said.

"You're Head Boy" Regulus squealed then got his own wand out. "And anyway you wouldn't want to be expelled – otherwise you won't get to see Sev"

Sirius snorted

"Why would Snivellus matter to him?" Sirius said

James scowled Regulus

"Because he was snogging him in the library"

"Bollocks" Sirius shouted and pointed his wand at Regulus. "My boy wouldn't 'snog' Snivellus – he's all loved up with Lily"

Regulus laughed

"I saw you… you snuck up on him, talked to him then pushed him up against the bookcase snogging his face off – I've seen you with Lily man there's never that much passion"

"Don't you think so?" James questioned

Regulus shook his head

"Still saying your talking bollocks" Sirius muttered as James connected his eye line with Regulus.

"Actually what do you know about passion?" James asked laughing slightly. "I love Lily" he added quickly after seeing the red haired girl out the corner of his eye.

A few cabins down he could see the black haired boy; he sighed and looked at Sirius.

"Regulus go fuck yourself" Sirius said causing several carriage doors to open and heads to pop out.

"Sirius compose yourself" Remus whispered.

Sirius looked at him and nodded taking a deep breath in. the three boys all had a spell on their lips aiming their wands at the opposing boy.

"Any thing from the trolley dears?" a cheery voice said, the boys turned and dropped their wands whilst the woman with the trolley walked down separating the boys and making them go into their own carriages.

Sirius for the last year had taken refugee at the Potters, due his dislike of his parents; well really the dislike of the Black family all together, every member minus Sirius was a Slytherin, bad blood.

Sirius preferred not to be around such bad people. He still communicated with his brother, it was his younger sibling and boy was he a gossiper. But Sirius loved the Potter household, he loved the feeling of being wanted and the love that was always felt and appreciated.

James did in fact have a brilliant relationship with his parents and had enjoyed their Christmas' as did Sirius.

James put his trunk in his room then looked at Sirius.

"So…" Sirius said laying on his bed, James laughed slightly and lay beside him, so they where top and tail.

"So what?"

"Who are you fucking?"

James' eyes widened as he sat up.

"What the hell?"

"When Lily came into our carriage, you looked at her as if thinking 'Fuck I forgot about you'"

That boy can read James like a book. James looked at him then shook his head.

"I'm not fucking anyone other than Lily" James said then looked at him "But I have to decide between two people – and that is all you're getting Sirius Black"

Sirius moaned then head butted James' legs, he then began licking James' legs, James frowned and sat up noticing his friend was now the black shaggy dog.

He rolled his eyes as Snuffles barked and jumped on James legs, nuzzling into his crotch.

"Do you mind?" James said pushing the dogs head back, Snuffle barked then jumped on James' chest licking his face. James laughed and stroked the dogs head.

"You're lucky you're cute as a dog" James said scratching behind Snuffle's ear. The dog barked then licked James' nose. James smiled.

"Sirius Black did you just kiss me" James said laughing, Snuffles put his paw over his eyes then turned back into Sirius, who had his hands over his eyes but a massive smile on his face.

"Sirius Black, do you have something to tell me?"
