"HOGWARTS SOUNDS AMAZING," GAMBIT said coolly, listening intently as the four boys told her tales of their adventures in Hogwarts.

She was a little devastated she didn't get a letter, but the universe must be making it up to her, she thought.

"Hogwarts is our home. I'm sure it will be your home too," Peter smiled sweetly,

"Yeah well, how can it be my home if I've never been there?"

The boys nodded in unison, already knowing that James had a plan to take her there.

"We'll take you! To Hogwarts--sort everything out with Professor Dumbledore--"

"James.. I appreciate it but I can't leave the Orphanage now, Aunt Marge is gonna freak--"

"Who says we have to leave now?"
James smirked,
⠀

Gambit gasped, happy that he's willing to wait until she can leave, although she may never visit Hogwarts, it's nice to know James thought of taking her there.

The five of them stood in front of a house, waiting around as Sirius threw small pebbles on the second story window. The house had wooden pillars holding the roof of the porch as the windows were dimly lit seeing as it was around midnight, the curtain passed the window frame as a girl with red hair looked out her window.
Shocked to see four familiar faces, she immediately motioned to come through the window.

Sirius went in first, going in with his broom followed by Remus and Peter. James carried Gambit once again and they entered her room,

"--are you doing here..?! My parents are home they could--"

"Alright there, Evans?"
James asked, setting his broom in the corner as Gambit wiped her feet clean.

"Potter. Nice to see you I guess," The red head looked at Gambit, pleasantly surprised but confused, "Who is she..?"

"This here, is Gambit Gaunt--"

"Gaunt as in--"

"Yes as in Child of Gaunt. We thought it'd be nice to show her some things from the Wizarding world, she's never got the chance to see it herself," Remus explained, offering Gambit a seat on the bed.

Gambit apologized she intruded, but Lily reassured her,

"Oh it's alright Gambit, I've gotten used to them visiting with no warnings.." she sighed, "I'm Lily Evans. Also a wizard--just a Muggleborn one,"

Gambit nodded, glancing over at James,

"People who have Muggle parents,"
James chuckled as Gambit seems to have forgotten a few details, but he's happy to see the two girls be friendly with each other.
