dreams- aya pov

it's the day it's the day!! the marauders are gonna be here for the whole year! i can't wait!!! i catch up to hermione 'hey hermione! they're coming today, are you excited?!' 'DUH' hermione says 'i just wish remus could teach me some spells that they learnt when they were in school.' she says sighing. 'oooh i think someone's got a crush..' 'I DO NOT' hermione says, blushing. i just know she does and i'm not surprised of course she'll be crushing on all the smart people. during potions with professor slughorn, we heard an announcement saying, 'good day, i would like you all to leave your lessons and gather around at the front of the school by the quidditch pitch.' there was a slight muffle before the speaker went off and a moment of silence before everyone jumped from their seats and rushed to the door to see the marauders. hermione walks over to my desk, 'let's go aya hurry!' we both run to the front of the school where we see 4 brooms flying down toward us. i couldn't really see the people on there first but as they got closer i knew they were the marauders, i was shaking with excitement and so was hermione. dumbledore was there to introduce them when they landed. 'and here are the marauders! coming to see the school for a year! there's james potter..' james did a bow and winked at some girls which made them all squeal. 'sirius black..' sirius did the same which made more girls squeal. 'remus lupin..' all the ravenclaw girls and hermione did the squealing this time. 'and.. peter pettigrew.' there wasn't a sound. dumbledore tensed before saying 'i would like you to make them all feel very welcome, boys, welcome to hogwarts.' everyone applauded. we could see that dumbledore was right, they were all teenagers even though they weren't. 'weird' i say to hermione as we walk back. 'honestly aya, they're teenagers, like us. that makes it even better than coming as old, grumpy, adults. besides, remus can teach me some spells and tricks he learnt when he was younger even though he's young now. how cool is that! 'yeah yeah' i say, sighing 'i just wish armin was here instead.' dumbledore had overheard us. 'oh don't worry, if you believe in a dream, it will come true..'
