Juliette's eyes searched the area that is known as Platform 9 3/4. She was hoping to spot someone that she was familiar with. Remus Lupin's eyes met hers and she smiled at him before weaving her way through the crowd. Once she reached him she threw her arms around him in an excited hug. She had missed the boy.
Remus and Juliette met in the library whenever she was crying over her homework. Remus comforted her and has helped her if she was struggling in school ever since. Juliette was extremely grateful for his help and has grown fond of him and his presence. Remus adores the bubbly girl and would classify her as one of his closest friends.
James and Sirius watched from afar. It was odd to see Remus hanging out with anyone else, let alone hugging a random girl they've never met. The only reasoning they could come up in their heads was that they were dating. James and Sirius wore smirks on their faces as Remus came over to them. Peter stood there making sure he had all of his stuff.
"Who's your girlfriend, Moony?" James asked. Remus shook his head.
"She's not my girlfriend. It's Juliette Dupont" Remus says.
"I have no clue who that is" Sirius says and James nods his head in agreement. Peter rolls his eyes.
"She's the one that fixed your glasses when that Slytherin bloke broke them" Peter said to James. Remembrance flashes through the duo's eyes.
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh" They both say. Remus simply rolls his eyes.
"Be nice to her" He says before walking to get on the train.

Juliette ran up to Jackson and Kayla who were both seated at the hufflepuff table in the Great Hall. She plopped herself next to Kayla.
"Hello!" She chirpily greeted them. The both greeted her back and before they could continue their conversation Dumbledore started his welcome back speech and the First years came in to get sorted.
Juliette studied Jackson's appearance. His hair has grown out and his features matured. She smiled as she took in his cheers whenever there was a first year sorted into Hufflepuff.
One thing to know about Juliette is that she had the biggest crush on Jackson. She wouldn't go as far as to say that she was in love with him, but she was damn close to it.
The feast was served after the sorting ceremony and Juliette quickly filled her plate with her favorite things.
"So, how was everyone's summer?" Kayla asks. Jackson's face lit up at the question.
"Amazing. I may or may not have a girlfriend now" He smiled widely. Juliette felt her heart drop. She suddenly had no appetite. She quickly recovered from the stab to her chest and smiled brightly.
"That's amazing" She exclaimed. Jackson smiled brightly at her. It made it worse that he looked super happy.
"Juliette what did you do this summer?" Kayla asked her. She knew the girl was most likely fighting off tears right now and she would do anything to get her mind off if it.
"I stayed with my Mom in Paris for half the summer and then went to my dads summer house in the US for the other half. Oh and I got to stay with my Mémé for a week in Monaco!" Juliette excitedly says. Her grandmother, or Mémé, was one of her favorite people on the planet.
"What did you do Kayla?" Juliette asked.
"Just went to New York and visited my family" She shrugged. Kayla was born in London, but her family moved to New York because their was better job opportunities in America. Kayla got to choose which Wizarding school she wanted to go to.
Juliette glanced at Jackson to see why he went silent. Her smile dropped when she saw him staring at the Gryffindor table with a sickenly love struck smile on his face. She followed his line of sight to Lily Evans. She felt her stomach drop to her ass. Of course he had to be with the absolute perfect girl.
Juliette stared at Lily wondering what she had that she didn't. After 10 minutes of watching Jackson and Lily make googly eyes with each other she abruptly stood up and walked out of the great hall.

It was currently 9 pm and Juliette was walking into the kitchen to get her comfort food and vent to Keeley, her favorite house elf.
"Do you want Hot chocolate and churros, Madam Juliette?" Keeley asked. Juliette smiled warmly at her.
"You don't have to call me Madam. Just Juliette is fine. And it would be lovely thank you" Juliette took a seat and waited for her food and drink to be done. She watched the house elves work. It was neat just watching them. They were intriguing creatures.
"Here you go" Keeley says sitting Juliette's food in front of her. She nods at the house elf as a way to say thank you before dipping her churro in her hot chocolate and taking a bite. She smiled delightfully at the comforting taste. The only place that tasted the same as in Mexico was at Hogwarts. It was Juliette's sad food.
"Can I have some mac and cheese please?" Juliette turned at the new voice in the kitchen. She was met with James Potter. He noticed her and smiled at her to which she returned the gesture. He awkwardly looked around for a moment before sitting next to her.
"Um, hello. I don't think we've properly been introduced. I'm James" He stuck his hand out to be shook. Juliette smiled at him.
"I know who you are. Everyone does. But, I'm Juliette" She shakes his hand. James readjusts his glasses. HIs eyebrows pinched together.
"What are you doing down here so late?" He asks.
"Feeling sorry for myself" She sighs. James's eyebrows raise intrigued.
"Same actually" He explains. Juliette looks at him.
"The person you fancy start dating someone, too?" She asked already knowing that the answer was yes. It wasn't a secret that James was head over heels for Lily Evans. Never made sense as to why she hated him so much, Juliette would kill for someone to feel that way about her.
"Yes, actually" James whispered.
"I get it. Lily started dating Jackson. I fancy Jackson. Funny how we are both upset over the same couple, eh?" She laughs at the irony. James's head shoots up.
"You fancy Jackson?" He asked. It seemed like he was awestruck at the thought. She nods her head.
"More than I would like to" She admits. Her eyes shift from the boy to her churros and she felt her eyes line with tears.
"I know exactly how you feel" James says.
The two teens spent hours with each other. Telling stories and getting to know each other. The house eles had to kick them out of the kitchens because it was getting far to late.
