Y/n's Pov

I walk anxiously into the train station alone with my cart. Uncle Lucius, Aunt Narcissa, Draco, and my father went ahead. I had to go back and get something so they were waiting for me on the other side of the wall.

As I'm heading back to the wall I see Potter and Weasley run at it, but instead of going straight through like what would normally happen, they crash into it. I wince as they do. All their trunks go spilling out of their carts as they roll on the floor. Ray joins me at my side, I guess he had to get something as well.

"What happened to them?" He asks, sparing a glance at them sprawled on the floor.

"They crashed into the wall."

"How?"

"They ran at it."

"No I mean like, aren't they supposed to go through it?" I shrug at this. They are, I just don't know why they didn't. Looking at the clock, realization hits me.

"BLOODY HELL, WE'RE LATE!"

"Let me try running at it." Ray suggests, getting ready to run.

"NO!" I yell, grabbing his collar. "If it really is blocked you're just going to run straight into it, and that's going to be painful. And as much as I would love to witness that, I don't have the time to deal with you being concussed." Potter and Weasley finally get all their stuff gathered back up into their carts and join us by our side.

"So what do you suggest we do, oh wise one?" Weasley taunts in annoyance.

"We could send an owl?" I suggest.

"No. It would never get there on time." Weasley quickly shuts my idea down.

"You're the one who even asked for my input," I scoff. "Do you have a better idea? Better yet, a flying car? I don't think so."

I regret saying that. They do have a flying car. Potter and Weasley are seated at the front, with Weasley driving. I don't feel safe. Ray and I are in the back. I'm holding Lily in her cage on my lap so if something goes wrong she doesn't get injured... at least not that badly.

"Weasley, if we crash, it's all your fault." I state, wanting this resemblance of a nightmare to end. I hold Lily closer to my chest.

"We're not going to crash." Weasley reassures me. As he does, I see him roll his eyes through the rearview mirror.

"Do you even know how to drive this thing?" We haven't even taken off and I'm already doubting them more than I usually do.

"Do you?" Ray counters, making me shut up.

"Do you guys know the direction that we have to go in?" I ask Weasley.

"Would you just shut up?" He groans. Being the mature person I am, I stick my tongue out at him in retaliation as he glowers at me.

"She has a point," Potter nods, turning his head to Weasley. "How are we going to find the direction of the school?"

"We could follow the direction of the train. It should've just left." I inform them after checking my watch.

"Alright then, off we go." Weasley says, starting the car and driving off, forgetting to turn it invisible.

"Weasley, you daft bimbo! The mudbloods aren't supposed to see the flying car!" I remind him frustratedly.

"Oh yeah, well, there's an invisibility button. It only works for a short amount of time though."

"Well press it!" Ray shouts at him, looking as if he was about to tug at his hair in frustration. I can't really blame them. Weasley quickly presses it.
