I am so sorry for the very very long delay, I have been busy lately. Actually, I have just been lazy... Sorry about that. Anyways, this chapter goes out to Milou Milou, Thanks for following this! Please review!

Disclaimer: I only own Miranda Mumblewed, Not Harry Potter, unfortunately.

Severus

Severus stared at the students piling into the Hogwarts main entrance. He really didn't care much for them, but Lily was exited, so he would playact, just for her. He really wished that it was the students from Durmstrang, he heard that they were very skilled in the Dark Arts. But you never know, these students could know some Dark arts as well. He looked around for Lily. He was really wanting to see her expression. He looked around for a flash of red. There! He yelled,

"Lily! Hey, Lily, wait up!" The red slowed down, and Severus shoved his way through the crowd. He caught up to her eventually, and said, "So, you excited about this?" The redhead nodded happily.

"Isn't this just so exciting? I mean how often do you get to meet foreign students? Not a lot, I think. But these guys are magic foreign exchange students!" Lily continued on, rambling about everything. Then she stopped. "I did it again, didn't I?" He nodded. "Sorry. I am just so excited!" Severus looked over at Miranda, Lily's newfound friend. She didn't hate him, so he thought that she was a suitable companion for Lily. He addressed Miranda.

"Are you exited as well?" she nodded barely, and so then Lily jumped in.

"Yeah, she's way exited. She saw..." As Lily trailed off, Miranda's face turned unnaturally white.

"She saw what?" Severus pressed, then saw Miranda's face. "Um, never mind. Its probably girly anyways." Lily and Miranda both looked extremely relived. Then an annoying voice came from behind Severus.

"But Snivilus, I thought that you were a girl. After all, your hair is long enough for it!" It was James Potter. Lily looked at him, ready to hex him into oblivion, if she knew any hexes.

"James Potter, you'd better leave him alone, or else I-I'll um, I'll, well, do something horrible to you!" James was not afraid, oddly enough. But then Miranda said quietly,

"Lily, my brothers taught me the most excellent Bat-Bogey Hex. if you want, I'll use it on him." Lily smiled wickedly, and replied,

"Well, you can, but only if him and his cronies aren't out of here in ten seconds. Ten, nine" The boys all scurried away from them, rather quickly. Miranda smiled. Severus was laughing too, but inside he groaned. Potter was going to tease him mercilessly for this. They continued on, talking about the moment until they got to the Great Hall. Then he split away from them, waving slightly. Again he wondered what these Beauxbatons were like. But he shook it off, and sat down by a few other boys, named Avery and Mulciber. Then he waited for the Beauxbatons to arrive.

Lily

Lily was very exited. She said to Miranda,

"Oh, Miranda, aren't you just SO excited?" Miranda nodded, but Lily could tell that she really was excited. Especially about a certain Beauxbatons boy. Lily remembered when she pointed him out.

"Look, over there!" Miranda had said loudly. Lily had looked and saw a rather nice-looking boy, but then he had disappeared before she could get a better look at him.

"So," Lily said loudly, "What about," she lowered her voice here, "That boy? Would you say that he is more handsome than Black, or cuter than Potter? Not that its hard to be cuter than Potter."

"Well," Miranda said hesitantly, "He is definitely handsomer than Black and Potter combined."

"Ooh, can't wait to see him!" Lily said playfully. Then another voice dropped in.

"Yes, I can't wait to meet him either! Who is handsomer than me and James combined?" It was Black. Lily faced him and said,

"A very nice person who will be glad to shove your face in one of the many Hogwarts toilets." Sirius winced.

"Doesn't seem very nice to me," He complained. Lily ignored him and focused on the doors, waiting eagerly for the first students to come filtering through. Finally, after what seemed like ages, the Beauxbaton students filtered through. After they were all there, Professor Dumbledore stood up and announced,

"Welcome, Beauxbaton students! Please take a seat at one of the four Hogwarts tables. As soon as you do, the food shall appear." The students all sat down. Most of the girls went towards the Ravenclaw table, but a few went to the Gryffindor table. The boys went mostly to the Gryffindor table, but a few went towards Hufflepuff. She knew it was rude, but she was secretly glad that none of the Beauxbatons went to the Slytherin table. Then Miranda said nervously,

"He's coming over here!" Lily looked where she was pointing and saw a very handsome boy walking straight towards them. Miranda was blushing bright red. He came over and said quietly,

"Can I sit here?" Lily nodded yes, as Miranda was much too embarrassed to say anything. He sat down and said to Miranda, "So, what are your names?" Miranda squeaked out,

"My name i-is Miranda Mumblewed, a-and that is L-Lily Evans." He smiled at her, then turned to Lily, and said quietly,

"Is she nervous? If so, please reassure her zat I do not bite. Also, before you ask, my name is Jake." Lily said,

"She's just a bit nervous. But let me ask you, why don't you have much of an accent?" He chuckled and replied,

"I don't have much of an accent because I have been practicing my English." Lily nodded. It made sense. they continued to talk, Miranda even venturing to ask a few questions. They didn't realize that the food was up, or that they were eating it, they were so involved in the conversation.

Meanwhile, James was glaring at the trio, wanting to bite the boy's head off. He got all of Lily's attention, and she hated him. It was unfair. He related this all to Sirius and Remus, and then said,

"So what do you think?" Remus said,

"James, you don't have to be afraid that he likes Lily, because I think that he likes Miranda. He's sitting closer to her, and is trying to get her to join the conversation. Do you see?" James nodded, again surprised at the boy's expertise in girls.

Lily was laughing her head off when the food disappeared. Jake had just told a particularly funny joke. As soon as she had calmed down, the crowd silenced, and Dumbledore stood up.

"I hope that you all enjoyed that feast, and wish you the ability to walk to the dorms. All Beauxbatons will be staying in two houses, Ravenclaw and Gryffindor. I leave it to you to find sleeping arrangements, but do not be afraid to ask a teacher for help. I do not need to remind you this, but boys with boys, and girls with girls. Thank you, and good night. You are dismissed!"

The girls led Jake to the Gryffindor common room. Then they realized that they had a problem. Where was Jake going to sleep? Lily was just starting to worry when James Potter said,

"Don't worry about it, he can sleep with us." Lily didn't trust him, but Jake seemed eager enough. So she and Miranda waved him goodnight and left, leaving the boys to deal with the sleeping arrangements.

That night, after Lily fell asleep, she dreamed of Miranda and Jake holding hands, and her and James Potter planning a prank together. She turned in her sleep and thought to herself, Like that's ever going to happen.
