The two friends had been exited as they boarded the train. The car ride on the way to King's cross was filled with Alice talking about how the two friends was exited to be sorted into Slytherin and making friends when they sat down. Regulus was exited for them and that they'd have each other to stick together, but Sirius was most exited for pulling pranks and joining quidditch. The three sat laughing and smiling in the back whilst their parents were preparing what they were going to say to their children on the platform.

When they had all arrived the cases were on the train the Nott family and the Black family stood in a semi circle surrounding Sirius and Alice. Regulus stood in front of Mrs Black as she had her hand on his shoulder. "Listen close and listen carefully children," Mr Nott spoke sternly "If either of you get into any trouble at all you will both be punished." Alice's father's eyes flicked from Sirius to Alice before Mrs Black spoke up in a low voice " As we all know you don't listen to us unless we threaten the other," she said eying Sirius suspiciously "and we have both agreed on this." Alice looked down at the floor and fiddled with her fingers until her mother lifted her face harshly "We want a letter from each of you telling us that you got into Slytherin, like expected of you." 

The whistle blew for final boarding and Sirius was sent off to find a compartment for him and Alice to sit in whilst Alice was kept back for another minute. Mrs Black turned Regulus to face him away from Alice. In one swift motion the girl was jolted forward by the arm as her father bent down and brought his lips near to her ear  " One slip up from you and there will be punishment. Orion has told me all about Sirius' behaviour as of late, so let me tell you this once if he does anything wrong. It. Will. Be. On. You."  Her father let her go and nodded signalling that she could now leave. 

Alice made her way onto the train and as she pasted the Blacks she smiled politely at Mr and Mrs Black and brushed Regulus' shoulder. The green eyed girl finally got onto the train just as it was about to start moving. Alice started to look for Sirius, when she finally found him it wasn't from seeing him, no, it was from his laugh. She followed to noise and looked through the glass to see him. 

Him.
