Platform 9 3/4

"There's so many new kids." James sighed.
"Well yes, there are going to be first years James." Regulus said, interlacing their fingers.
"Not them, there's like ten new kids that are in our years." James replied.
"Oh."
"Which one do you think is him?" Sirius said, eyes scanning the crowd. He saw several boys he didn't recognize. The first was neither unattractive nor attractive, he was around 5'7 and a little chubby, he was already wearing the school uniform and stood next to a girl who looked similar to the woman they were standing with, presumably his sister and mother, the girl was also wearing her uniform and, an older man, presumably his father.
The second was more attractive than the first. Light brown hair, cut into the style most boys wore their own, wearing dark jeans and a flannel shirt. Stood next to an older woman and a girl wearing a uniform. The girl, he identified as Alice Fortescue.
The third, was handsome to say, but looked extremely stereotypical for a fuck-boy.
The fourth was slightly attractive, with slightly curly blonde hair and blue eyes. He wore a t-shirt with a band Sirius was vaguely familiar with.
But the fifth boy really caught Sirius' attention. Because he was extremely attractive or because of the scars across his face and neck? Both. This boy, had curly brown hair, that was shaggy and could probably use a trimming. His eyes were hazel with gold flakes near the pupil. He was wearing dark colored trousers and a dark yellow sweater. And he was tall. God, he was tall.
"Woah....James James James James James!" Sirius said smacking his friends arm.
"What padfoot?"
"Look." Sirius said motioning towards the boy, stood with an older couple. Sirius assumed them to be his parents.
"Sirius, that's Remus."
"Who?"
"Remus. Remus Lupin, we met him when he toured the school last year. Lily was showing him around and he ate with us. Absolutely despised you, said you were a hyper little shit who needed to respect boundaries." James said.
"Oh. How do I not remember him? He's hot."
"If memory serves you were hexing Barty and me." Regulus added.
"Oh, sorry Reggie."
"Please don't call me Reggie."
"No can do little brother."
"YOU! HOW COULD YOU NOT TELL ME?!" An angry Lily Evans yelled as she came walking towards James.
"Hi Lily!" James said as he opened his arms.
"You better be glad that I like Regulus otherwise I would be currently commiting a homocide. But seriously you couldn't have written a short 'everything worked out, thank you, i now have a boyfriend'?" She said wrapping her arms around him.
"Are we missing something?" Regulus asked his brother.
"Apparently." He replied.
"Uhhh mind to fill us in?" Regulus asked. James wrapped an arm around the younger boys waist.
"Okay, so before the end of the year, Lily had asked me to tutor her in charms for the exam. Me being the generous person I am, agreed. Lily being the nerd she is, suggested we study in the library and not a classroom, and there she just had to choose a table across from Regulus and fucking Barty Crouch Jr., and then I mindlessly started ranting about him, and Lily developed a plan for me to ask him out, which I didn't end up using btw."
         "You still could have sent me an owl."
"Yes, I am very sorry Ms. Evans, that my now boyfriend kissed me the night he ran away, fell asleep crying, and then I had to fix that mess, because I didn't kiss back, and then deal with Sirius texting some stranger dude. It was a mess." James said, after he rolled his eyes.
"Alright well, I'm gonna go grab Remus, just everyone...don't mention his scars okay." Lily said, as she walked off.
She returned several seconds later followed by boy #5, aka Remus.
"Alright guys, this is Remus, he's a transfer student from Ilvermorny. Be nice, I'm gonna go grab Peter and Jane."
Remus stood quiet for a while, until he took his phone out. Lily came over with a boy and girl, presumably Peter and Jane. Peter with his nose down in his phone.

Remus: Help
Remus: Help
Remus: Help

Sirius took his phone out and started typing.
