Someone bumped into Lily. "Watch it!" They said. "No one gets in the way of the ever so handsome, Sirius Black." a guy who also had black hair said.
Lily gave him an 'I-don't-think-so' look. "Sirius Black, is it? Well, Lily Evans will get in the way of 'the ever so handsome Sirius Black' whenever she wants..."
Sirius Black smirked. "Oh yes she can." He said smoothly.
Then, the other black haired guy came(The one at the barrier). "Now now Sirius. We don't want to antagonize a girl as pretty as this one, now do we?" He said, smirking.
Lily gave both of these guys weird looks. "Yeeeeeeeeeeeah. Who are you?" She asked.
"Well, I'm James Potter and this is, as you know, Sirius Black." the black haired guy at the barrier said. "And, may I ask what your name is?" He asked, that smirk never leaving his lips.
"Lily Evans." Lily replied. "Now, if you'll excuse us, Alice and I have a compartment to find." She said, trying to push past James and Sirius.
"That won't be nesscisary." James said, blocking Lily's way. He was a bit taller than her, and Sirius was next to him, so it was kind of hard to get through. "You can sit with us."
Lily smiled sweetly. "That's very nice of you, but no thanks." She said as she kept trying to push past.
"I insist." James said, still trying to hold Lily back.
Lily stopped trying, then looked up at James. "Why?" She asked.
"Why what?"
"Why should we sit with you?"
"You see, Alice is a friend of mine, right Alice?" Alice nodded. "And we have two seats left in the compartment Sirius and I have, so why not have you two take up those seats?"
It wasn't a bad explaination. Lily sighed. "Where is this compartment of your's?" She asked, not looking at James.
James's smirk grew. "I knew you would come around." He said as he lead Lily and Alice to a compartment with two people already in it. One was reading a book, and the other was looking at James and Sirius eagerly as they aproached.
Lily rolled her eyes when James said that. James opened the compartment and walked in, pulling Lily, who was pulling Alice. Sirius was smirking behind them.
"Evans, I would like you to meet Remus Lupin," James pointed to the guy who was reading the book. He looked up and smiled. "And, Peter Pettigrew." He pointed to the eagerly waiting boy. "Everyone, this is Lily Evans." He sat down next to Sirius, who sat at the window seat, and pulled Lily next to him. Alice sat next to Remus and across from Lily. Lily gave her a 'help me' look, and Alice shrugged.
For most of the train ride, Remus, Sirius, and James would all talk to each other, Peter and Alice would listen to what they were saying, and Lily stared at her hands which were in her lap quietly. James noticed this and put an arm around Lily's shoulders. "You're a quiet one, Evans." He said.
Lily looked at his arm, then took it off her shoulder. "I'm just...tired, that's all." She said.
"Tired? Well, we were just talking about which house we want to be in? Which one do you want?" He asked.
"House?" She asked.
"Yes, how they organize the students. Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin." James's eyes narrowed when he said Slytherin.
"Oh." She replied blankly. "I don't know."
"You're muggle born, aren't you?"
"Muggle born?"
"Raised by muggles. Non magic people."
"Oh. Well, yes." She said.
"I want to be in any house except Slytherin. Gryffindor would be nice though."
"Why not Slytherin?"
"Dark wizards come from there."
"Oh. What's so nice about Gryffindor?"
"They are the bravest, loyalest, and best group of people."
"I see." Lily said, slowly, not really getting a word he's saying.
"So, what house do you want to be in?"
"I guess Gryffindor..." She said since she didn't want to be a Dark Wizard.
"Why? Because I'm going to be in there?" James asked smirking.
Lily looked at him disgusted. "No." She said. "That's not why."
"You keep telling yourself that, Evans." He said before turning back to Sirius and Remus.
The rest of the train ride was boring. Lily kept looking at her hands, and James would keep trying to talk to her, but would fail. Lily never wanted to see this guy again, but little did she know that she would be seeing loads of him from now on...
