"Sirius! James!" I yell across platform 9 3/4, catching the attention of almost everybody there.
"What are you all looking at? Can't a girl freak-out in peace? GOSH!" I say, then run toward Sirius and James. James picks me up mid-run and spins in a circle. He then throws (Yes, THROWS) me to Sirius, him catching me bridal style.
"I am not a teddy bear here people!" I roar.
"Still the same, I see Ellie!" Remus says, approuching our group.
"Moon-bug!" I scream my nic-name for him. He actually has no relation to the moon whats-so-ever (at least not that I know of...) but I have always called him Moon-bug for whatever reason. Remus has been my best friend since I was four!
I run over to him, almost knocking him over with the force of my hug.
"Now now Ellie! I'd like to be in one piece before the day is through!" Remus laughs.
"Ellie! Remus! We should probably get on the train before it leaves!" James calls. I look around and find that we are pretty much alone on the platform right now.
"Well! What are we waiting for!? The train isn't coming to us!" We head toward the door, then I sudddenly realize something.
"Guys... Wheres Peter?"
"He's probably waiting for us! Lets go!" Remus tugs on my hand.
"Well fine mister bossy!" I say, pulling my hand out of his and running up ahead, leaving the boys with my luggage.
"I'm not carrying this!" Sirius calls to me.
"Yes you are!" I yell over my shoulder. Not looking where I'm going (like always) I ram into someone, both of us tumbling to the floor of the train.
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to, Seriously!" I ramble.
"Actually, Im Sirius," Sirius says, coming up behind me, "and this is my idiot of a brother..." I hardly hear him though. I'm caught looking into the strangers eyes. He has nice, soft brown eyes almost black, and I find myself unable to look away. Wait... Did Sirius just say BROTHER!?
"Brother?" I stumble out. "but... He... WHAT?" I pick myself off the ground. So does the... Stranger. He offers me his hand and says "Black. Regulas Black." I shakily take his hand and stumble out, "Bell... Elektra... Bell..."
"Well, I am charmed to meet you, truly, but I must me off now." and with that, Regulas walks away.
"Close your mouth, Ellie. Your catching flys!" James laughs. I hadn't realized it was open.
"...He... eyes... Brother... I... WHAT!?" I wisper. I blink. I blink again. A few more times. Blink. Blink. Blink...
Remus waves his hand in front of my face.
"Ellie... Ellie!" Remus says. Blink. Blink. wait... I see a glint of silver on the floor and I pick up a beautiful ring designed with paturns and swirls. I stuff it into my pocket and go back to my glazed over look.
Remus sighs and grabs my hand, leading me and the boys into an empty compartment. We sit. Remus on my right, Sirius on my left, James across from me.
"What... Just... Happened?!" I ask.
"You tell us!" Remus grumbles.
"I... He... Eyes... Brown..." I let out a big sigh. He is Sirius's BROTHER! He is stricly off limits! Ohhhh... But his EYES! I sigh again. Blink. Blink.
"I think she's broken!" James laughs. Blink.
Just then, Peter decides to stumble into the room.
"Sorry Im late! I was... Hey? Whats with Ellie?" He asks. Blink.
"Shes in LOoooOOove!" James is now completely shaking with laughter.
"With my brother..." Sirius mutters.
"I AM MUST CERTAINLY NOT IN LOVE WITH YOUR BROTHER!" I screech.
"Nooooo... You just decided to stare at him like a lost puppy!" Sirius says.
"I DID NOT!" I yell.
"...woof..."
"SIRIUS ORION BLACK, I WILL EAT YOU!" I yell, getting really angry now. Little does he know that if he hangs to close around me on a full moon, that could very well come true.
"Now, we wouldn't want to ruin that figure of yours! Regulas might lose intrest!" He laughs. I snapped and tried to launch myself at him.
But Remus, ruining the fun (like always) puts his arm around my shoulders, keeping me a safe distance from Sirius.
"FINE! I'll go find Lily! She will understand!" I thundered out of the room, leaving all four of them shaking with laughter.
I walked down the hallway, grumbling to myself. Suddenly, I'm pulled into a compartment and engolfed in a bear hug. I would wonder who it was, but I already saw the red hair.
"Lilo!" I screech. Lilo is my nic-name for Lily. I like nic-names...
"Ello!" Lily yells back.
We scream I few more times until a slytherine across the hall yell at us. In a fit of giggles, we close the door and sit down.
"So how was youre summer?" she asks me.
"Oh you know... The usual... Lonely and wierd..." I answer. Lily is the only one I told about how I live in my little cabin in the woods. And how my parents died in the fire that destroyed my real home. So ya know, the usual.
"You know, your always welcome to stay with me. Or I'm sure James and the boys would have you to." Lily says, sober with the realtity of it all.
"I know Lilo, but I still have'nt told them what happened..." I say.
"Ellie! You mean you have'nt told them yet! It happened in second year!"
"I know! I know... But I can't... Anyway, your being to cereal for me right now! Losen up Lils!" I fake laugh, hopeing she'll take the bait.
"...Cereal? Dont you mean Serious?" Yup. Swallowed hook n' all.
"But when I say 'Serious', SIRIUS makes the same joke everytime.." I laugh for real now. "Speaking of Sirius, thats the whole reason I came down here in the first place... Have you met his brother?" I ask, suddenly nervous about telling her what happened.
"No... But I've heard many bad things about him!" Lily says, wide-eyed and looking suspicious.
"Well... I met him in the hallway, and-"
"Stop!" Lily screechs covering her ears in a haste.
"I don't need to hear about your love fest when I am incapable of having one!" She breaks down in a fit of giggles.
"Just go find James and you got one!" I laugh as she hits my shoulder, and we laugh and giggle until its time to change into robes.
*Remus' P.O.V.*
I watched as Ellie pranced out of the room. I must of watched alittle too long, because my 3 other friends that I forgot were there groaned.
"You still like her don't you?" Prongs asked, face in his hands. I have been in love with Ellie since 3rd year when she outsmarted the Marauders by pranking us. Before then we were just really good friends. But shes hard not to love, with her long brown hair and bright blue eyes that you can see from a mile away.
I gave a quick nod and got out my book while Prongs took a snitch out of his pocket, probably stolen, and Padfoot was chatted with Wormtail. I don't know why, but I have a feeling everythings going to change this year.
