Three fourths of the school was gathering in the Entrance Hall waiting to get a carriage to the station. Among that seventy five percent of the school were each Gryffindor years one, three, four, six, and seven.
Lily and James had to wake up early to catch the carriage for the Heads, so they could patrol the train from loading to unloading. They nipped into the Great Hall for some toast-to-go and hopped onto their carriage.
They had been patrolling the slowly filling corridors of the train for not even an hour before they broke up their first duel between a sixth year Slytherin and a fourth year Hufflepuff. It was now eight AM.
In the castle on the other hand, at the same time James and Lily had to break up that duel, it was havoc in the girl's dorm.
"Alice! Where's my green bra?!" Morgan shouted from under the bed.
"I put it back in your trunk two weeks ago. Remember?" Alice said calmly from her spot perched on her bed, being the only one packed.
"Oh yeah." she said and crawled out from under her bed.
"I wish Lily were here. She has that nifty packing spell. You guys would all be done by now, and we wouldn't be running late. . . Again." Alice sighed.
"Well, we're all going to the same place right?" Kylie asked.
"Yeah." everybody but Alice answered.
"Soooo, we all just shove stuff into our trunks and we'll sort it out later!"
"Oh my gosh Kylie! That's a great idea!" Lauren screamed and hugged her friend.
Within five minutes using nothing but their bare hands. . . okayyyy and a little bit of magic, maybe, they were all packed and ready!
Alice went and presented the idea to the males of their little clique who were, of course, still sleeping.
That problem was solved by Alice's wand, a few buckets, some ice water, and a magically magnified mega-phone.
Ten minutes later the boys, and Alice, joined the girls in the Entrance Hall waiting for a carriage.
After they got to the train station in Hogsmeade they had five minutes before the train left. Rushing onto the train they still managed to find a pretty good compartment.
Out of breath they all collapsed onto the cushioned seats and chatted about nothing for a few hours.
Morgan ended up falling right back asleep once the train started moving. Only this time it was on Remus' shoulder and not her pillow back in the dorm at Hogwarts.
Lauren and Sirius were all nice and cozy cuddled up in a corner on the floor, as were Alice and Frank in the seat above them. Kylie and Logan were just watching their friends while taking the occasional picture and blaming the flash on an invisible lightning storm.
James and Lily popped in time to time sharing interesting stories about various duels between Slytherins and other houses throughout the day, which were many. Who knew patrols could be so interesting?
Surely not Morgan who's snores had to be talked over by the storytellers.
Sirius didn't like hearing that his little brother had been involved in two of these duels along with Snape, Mulciber, Avery and that gang.
"Hey, where's Peter?" Sirius asked once Lily and James had left again to go look for more troublemakers to put into their newest stories.
"I don't know. He was here when we got here. I remember I accidentally stepped on his foot when we were looking for a compartment." Remus said while stroking Morgan's hair.
"Well we'll never be able to find him on this train. I don't want to get caught up in one of those duels anyways. Mrs. and Mr. P would kill me if I get in trouble for dueling again. They can handle pranking, actually they laugh when I tell stories, but-- they get really disappointed when they hear I've been dueling with Slytherins."
"Yeah. . ." Logan nodded at a loss for what to say.
"Whatimesit?" Morgan mumbled breaking the somewhat awkward silence.
"Uhhh. . . It's about two thirty, love," Remus said looking at his watch, "We've got another hour or so to go."
"Well this certainly has been a boring train ride." Morgan said.
"You've been sleeping! How is that boring?" Kylie asked her friend slightly shaking her head in an amused manner.
"No dreams." she replied matter of factly.
"Ahhh."
They were met with more silence.
During the last two hours of the train ride they found Peter (he said he was in the loo and ran into some friends), Lily and James came back two more times and ate all the food they'd bought from the Trolley Lady, Snape had come in looking for Lily and had left with boils, stings, bat bogeys attacking him, and clean pink and blue hair, and Sirius, Remus, Peter, Frank, and Logan had a burping and farting contest which the girls were the judges of. Surprisingly Frank won them both.
"LAND! SOLID LAND!" Sirius yelled dramatically once they'd gotten off the train.
"Get up you idiot," Lauren hissed pulling Sirius off the ground after he had started kissing it, "You are so not getting another kiss until you scrub those lips clean."
"Aww come on, baby." Sirius whined.
"Nope,"
"Don't make me use my puppy dog face." he threatened.
"Petrificus Totalis." Lauren smirked, paralyzing her boyfriend with a flick of her wand.
She heard the muffled snickers and snorts from her friends behind her.
"And that is how you handle a crazy boyfriend." she said to the bystanders around her.
With another flick of her wand he was disillusioned and his body was floating along with his eyes glaring at her from the distance.
"I'll get his trunk." James mumbled as Lauren collected hers and discreetly put her wand on top steadying it with her hand so Sirius wouldn't fall to the floor.
As everybody passed through the platform they spotted their parents. Lauren quickly took all her spells and charms off Sirius, smirked, and pulled him to his feet, smiling sweetly while he glared. He couldn't do anything in front of all the Muggles and Lauren knew that.
First they saw Peter's mom who could just talk your ear right off. After they had started to hear about Peter's second cousins they made up an excuse to leave and find Lily and Alice's parents.
They bid Peter and his mother farewell and a couple hugs and 'I'll see you soons' and 'Write to me!''s later, they were finally free of Ms. Pettigrew.
Next they went to find Alice's parents. They decided they wouldn't go up to them since it was Frank's big moment of meeting them and all. So once they saw Mrs. and Mr. Anderson *Alice's Parents* they wished Frank luck, gave hugs, and waved to their friends and Alice's parents from their spots on the platform.
"Where are your parents Lily?" James asked her.
"Oh, didn't I tell you guys? We're apparating to my house. So umm since Kylie and Logan have never been Miss Morgan Monroe (By the way, I realized that earlier I said her last name was McKinnon. Welll I changed my mind a couple chapters back and forgot to tell you. Also if I mentioned Alice's last name before I apologize. I couldn't find it. I looked trust me. So her new maiden name is Alice Anderson. Okay? =]), you can take Kylie and Mr. Sirius Black you can take Logan." she said smiling.
"Why'd you call them Miss and Mr.?" Lauren snorted.
"I don't really know. I just felt like it. Everybody ready? Okay. One. Two. THREE!" she ordered.
On three all of the apparators had turned on their heels and were sucked into a tube of absolute blackness. As soon as it was almost to much to handle they appeared in Lily's living room.
"Ah!" Mrs. Evans screamed as the teenagers popped into her living room with a loud crack breaking through the silent air like a shotgun blasting a bullet through a human skull.
"Oh hello, dearies! You scared the living daylights out of me! Lily. Don't do that again." Mrs. Evan said all very quickly.
"Hey, mum." Lily laughed and hugged her mom.
"MRS. E!" Sirius, James, Remus, Lauren and Morgan yelled and dropped their things on their way running up to hug her.
Sirius, of course, got there first. Soon there was a huge group hug with Mrs. Evans in the middle. Now only Lily, Logan, and Kylie were left outside the hug.
"Honey, what's all this- oh hello, Firecracker!" Mr. Evans exclaimed as he saw the sight of all of Lily's friends hugging his wife and Lily smirking at them from a distance.
"Daddyyyy!" Lily squealed as she ran up and jumped onto him, wrapping her legs around his waist and hugging him.
"I'm glad to see you too, Firecracker." he chuckled.
Lily jumped down from her dad and smiled.
"Oh! I almost forgot. Mum, wherever you are since I can't really see you because Sirius' fat arse is in the way, and Dad, this is Kylie and this is Logan."
"My arse is perfectly normal sized thank you very much!" Sirius exclaimed breaking the hug.
Lauren stepped away to and shook her head at her boyfriend."Sirius, will you ever learn? It is a little large."
Talking over Lauren and Sirius' little argument about Sirius' butt size Kylie and Logan introduced themselves and started talking with Mr. Evans about Hogwarts.
After everyone stopped hugging Lily's mom she went to go finish dinner. A few minutes later she made her dad come in to help. The guys wanted to help, but sensing potential disaster, Lily rerouted them upstairs.
"I call Lily's room!" James shouted running up two flights of stairs into Lily's room with Sirius trailing behind him.
"No! James! Get back here! You can have the room next to me! James! Wait up!" Lily laughed.
But James and Sirius got to her room before her.
"Sorry Lils'," they both said. Then they shut the door and locked it with some powerful spells that Lily did not know yet and laughed.
A couple seconds later everybody else caught up with them and helped Lily in trying to get James and Sirius out of her room.
They failed.
Miserably.
Ten minutes later they were all sitting against opposite sides of the hallway leaning their backs against the wall.
Unknown to them, the dynamic duo had put sticking charms on the walls.
So now they were all stuck on the floor without their wands. Without James and Sirius. And Lily was without her room.
Suddenly the door bursts open. Some weird fog stuff rolls out as well. Then Sirius and James break through the fog dramatically.
Lily isn't able to utter a word or make a sound after she saw what they're wearing.
James was wearing a pair of Lily's old cut-off's that he made a bit bigger, one of her pink bras with two of her tank tops stuffed in them, and her favorite belt fastened around his stomach.
Sirius on the other hand had on her lime green bra with some tissues stuffed in it, some of her bright blue gym shorts, a white headband, and her lip gloss, surprisingly. Though unlike James instead of a belt he left his stomach bare showing off his great abs.
"Hello ladies." the two suavely said.
"Um- hi, James and Sirius. Uhh. Why are you---" Lauren trailed off.
"She wants to know why you're wearing Lily's clothes and if you're gay or cross dressers or what." Remus clarified.
"Well to answer Lauren's unasked question, no we are not gay or cross dressers, we just felt like stealing Lily's room. And what's in Lily's room you ask? Well a huge closet that's what! So what better to do than play dress up in her clothes completely embarrassing her in front of her parents?!" James exclaimed happily.
"What?! You two are not going downstairs like that!" Lily screeched.
"Oh yes we are Lily-Pie." Sirius said tapping her nose affectionately.
The two of them started down the stairs and once they were a safe distance away and down at least one flight of stairs James yelled up, "I hope your mom made cupcakes!"
Cupcakes?
'Why would her mom make cupcakes?' Lily thought.
She gave up after a minute of thinking. There was no reason her mom would make cupcakes. Then it hit her. Her wandless magic! That was the codeword. Cupcake!
She laughed out loud at her own stupidity, as she heard her mother and father's howling laughter downstairs.
She was to late--
While everybody was giving her weird looks and asking her why in sodding hell was she laughing she took the Sticking Charm off all of them and bolted down the stairs.
"JAMES POTTER! I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!" Lily screamed as she got into the kitchen where her mom and dad were in stitches as Sirius and James strutted along the imaginary cat walk.
She ran up and tackled her boyfriend to the ground and discreetly changed his clothes back to what he was wearing under his robes when he got here.
"Oof! You're pretty strong you know that Lils'?" James complimented trying to make her hair stop the steaming that it was just starting to do.
"Oh come on Lily! Let the poor boy go! He was just trying to have some fun." her father said to her from his seat at the table.
"Oh no, I'm not going to hurt him, Daddy. Don't worry." she smiled sweetly at her dad then waved her hand in a complicated motion a Sirius changing him back to normal too.
Lily pinned James to the ground as best she could concidering how much bigger he was than her. By now she wasn't really mad anymore, just mildy amused.
So she let James off the hook, and whispered something threatening in his ear about what Lauren did to Sirius earlier at the platform except ten times worse and more humiliating.
He reddened then got up and helped Lily off the ground as well.
"Haha. Um sooo what's for dinner Mum?" Lily said hastily as the rest of her friends showed themselves from behind the wall smirking.
