Hey! So, thanks so much to the reviews I got last night and this morning! It means so so much, I think I say this every time, but it really does make my day!

This is J.K Rowling's amazing world and I'm just borrowing it…

Those three weeks were the most boring in my entire life. I just sat around playing chess with myself, I know right, I'm a loser, but I had no one. It was a great relief when I woke up on the first of September and put my uniform on. I didn't do anything fancy to my hair apart from put it into a high fishtailed pony tail. It still had the colour from a couple months ago; Periwinkle blue with pink tips. I went down to breakfast and noticed that dad wasn't there. I asked mum where he was.

"Oh, he just had to go into work early; he said he'll write to you." Mum replied.

"Oh, ok."

We ate in silence, and then I went up to brush my teeth and get my trunk. Mum helped me get it into the car. It was only a five minute trip to the station so I just stared out the window looking forward to seeing the boys. When we reached platform 9 ¾ mum kept going a bit teary and saying how proud she was of me and how she couldn't believe that I was in my second year already, it was quite funny really. I said goodbye then and promised I would go home for Easter. I ran into the boys when I was boarding onto the Hogwarts Express.

"Hey Tonksie! How was the rest of your holiday?"

"Good thanks Sirius! What about yours?"

"Hey." A gentle voice said.

"Hey Remus." I replied with. "How are you?"

"Good, good. I had a really boring holiday without you…you guys." He stuttered the last part.

"Hey guys!" James, the hero of ending awkward conversations.

"Hey!" We all said at the same time.

"So, shall we board?" Remus asked. "Only because it's going to leave in you know, one minute!"

We all rushed on and found a compartment which had Peter in it. None of us were really that friendly with Peter, but the boys didn't mind having him around. Once we were settled, I pulled out Advanced Charms, the book that James got me for my birthday. I had already read this seven times during the holiday, but it was really interesting and I had already learned a couple of spells that were O.W.L level! I continued to read it until the food trolley came along and we all got a stack of cauldron cakes. We finished them and started talking about Quidditch, lessons and what was happening this year, as we were all quite excited. We chatted for another half hour until a specific someone showed up.

"Looks like I have stumbled across the loser's compartment, I better leave soon otherwise it might rub off." Severus had just slid open the compartment door and was now being a git.

"Oh, too bad, it already has rubbed off!" James shot back.

"Nice one mate." Sirius complemented James. Remus and I were watching the interaction with bored looks on our faces, knowing that Severus would go away then Sirius and James would complain for ages, but Peter on the other hand was wetting himself with excitement.

"Just go away you annoying prick!" I said. I was bored already.

"Ooh, someone's on their period…" Severus said. I blushed furiously and sat back down.

"Oi! Just go away. It's clear you're only tormenting us because you have nothing better to do!" Remus seemed furious. I wonder why…oh well.

Severus left after that mumbling about us being arrogant gits.

We were home. Finally. The rest of the ride was ok; we got no more interruptions and played exploding snap a couple of times before I returned to my book. The boys and I followed the other second years and saw carriages riding themselves. Ah, magic. We all hoped on one together and rode off towards the castle. The carriages arrived at the bottom of the stairs of the entrance into Hogwarts. Some of the other students were already there and waiting for a teacher to come and get us.

"Ok, come on in." Professor McGonagall opened up the double doors and waited until everyone came through the door.

We went in to the great hall and sat down at the Gryffindor table and waited for the new first years to arrive. Once they had, McGonagall started was calling names straight away. The first years all looked terrified and one of them, a girl this year, was dripping with water. She must've fallen into the lake. That seems to happen every year to at least one clumsy person; I'm quite surprised it wasn't me last year seeing how clumsy I am. Anyway, Professor McGonagall called out some more names with 'Sophie Zabini' being last. Then Dumbledore walked up to the podium thing and gave his annual speech.

"Welcome to the newcomers and welcome back. There is a time for speeches but now isn't, so tuck in!"

And we did tuck in; it was the best welcome back feast yet! There were sausages that had only the best kind of meat in it, pork with the crunchiest crackling, chips with just the right amount of saltines and the pudding was even better. The boys and I all gorged ourselves on treacle tart and ice cream. It was just so good, but imagine the smell, with a mixture of sweet and the leftover scent of the pork and meat, it just made me even hungrier, hence why I had thirds. Too soon the meal vanished and Dumbledore was saying good night. The boys and I trotted along with everyone else towards the common room. I went up to bed straight away being exhausted from today, and flopped onto my bed with my clothes still on.

The next day we were straight into classes and got mounds of homework. I had three essay to do for potions, transfiguration and history of magic, a spell to practise for charms and a drawing to do of the planets. There was no way I was getting all this done. Oh well, I'll figure it out later. In the meantime I was just having a good time with my friends.

Thanks so much guys! You are all awesome!
