"Mom, I just don't understand why we have to move. I'm doing fine at Ilvermorny, I have friends here!" Lillian said her her mom while helping her finish up packing the kitchen.

"Because honey, your father and I got job promotions, and besides, you'll love Hogwarts! That's where I met your father, and our best friends" She said, giving her daughter a look

Lillian rolls her eyes before saying, "I know mom, Liv and Benji are my best friends, thank god there moving with us." 

Lillian was never good with change. Her family, and her parents best friends family moved to America when she was only 4. She and her friends Elizabeth and Benjamin Barns got accepted into Ilvermorny when they were 11. They were sorted into the Horned Serpent while she was sorted into the Thunderbirds. Even though they were in different houses, that didn't stop them from hanging out everyday. 

Lillian's dad, Steve, and his best friend Bucky, walk in and grab more boxes to floo over to the new house in London. 

"Hey girls! Is this the rest?" Steve asks with a smile.

"Sadly." Lillian says with an eye roll, giving her father a look

He frowns, "Honey, you'll love it. I promise." he says giving her a kiss on her head

She shakes her head, "Whatever, I'm going to floo over, Lizzy and Ben are already there unpacking I bet." she says grabbing the floo powder and saying her new address. 

She comes out of the fireplace coughing, the soot getting all in her face. She looks up and sees her best friend, at least she still has them, and they get to live together now.

"Hey Lils!" Ben says running up to her, and flipping her over his shoulder spinning in a circle, making her squeal.

"Bneji! Put me down!" She laughs, Lizzy is laughing in the background. 

"Benny put her down before I hex you." Lizzy says to her twin with a raised brow.

Benjamin immediately puts her down, knowing that she is not kidding. 

"So, are you guys excited for our fifth year?" Ben asks, Lillian sighs

"I would be if we could finish school in America." she says. Lizzy nods

"I know, it sucks. But hey, at least we're together!" she says, making the three of them smile. 

"Yeah, that helps a lot. Anyways, mom and dad are going to Diagon Alley tomorrow, they're gonna get our stuff, so we don't have to worry about that." Ben says

"What about our robes, we have to get fitted for those I thought." Lizzy says

"Shoot, well then I guess we're going for that, but then we can come home." He says, making the girls laugh.

"Remember, all you need are your robes, which shouldn't take long to get fitted for, and then I guess you three could go home and relax." Rosalie said, fixing Benjamins hair, making him swat her hand away

"Thank Aunt Rose, we'll see you guys at home." Lillian says before running off with the twins, wanting to get out of their as fast as possible.

As they reach Madam Malkin's Robes, they walk in and are immediately pulled in different directions to get fitted. 

"Stop moving child, I don't want to poke you." said the women fitting Lillian's robes.

"Sorry miss." She says, standing as still as a statue. 

Around 15 minutes later, they all have their robes payed for, and walk out of the shop.

"Want to get ice cream before we leave? I heard it great from dad." Lizzy says, making the two nod, and walk in the direction of the ice cream shop.

As they're walking and laughing, making jokes, someone bumps into Lillian, making her drop her things and fall to the ground, as well as the unknown person. 

"I am so sorry, I wasn't looking were I  was going." Lillian says, collection her things

"That's alright love, it's my fault." the person say's helping her stand up.

Lillian brushes the dirt off her jacket before rolling her eyes, "Next time watch were your going please." She says looking up at the boy.

Sure, he was handsome. His black messy hair, and his hazel eyes, and a smirk on his face. But Lillian looked away, seeing that her friends were ahead of her now, waiting for her to be done with the boy.

"Y-yeah, sorry." He stuttered, looking behind him at her friends, giving them a wave. 

Lillian rolled her eyes and started to walk away.

"Hey wait!" She heard the boy yell. She turned around, her eyebrows raised and arms crossed.

"What?" She asked

"I didn't watch your name." He smirked, she scoffed

"That's because I didn't drop it." She rolled her eyes. The boy just continued to smirk and walked closer to her, making her take a step back.

"The names-" He was cut off by a women with red hair and blue eyes calling his name

"James! Come on we're going home." She yelled, making his face drop, causing Lillian to smile a bit.

"James? Nice name." And with that she walked away to her friends who were waiting for her.

Lizzy had a raised brow with a teasing smile, while Benji was glaring at the boy for hitting on the girl he saw as a sister. 

"Shut up. Lets go home." Lillian said

"I didn't even say anything!" Lizzy said, making Ben laugh

"You didn't have to! Your face said it all." He laughed making his sisters laugh as they walked to the floo to get home.
