I pull my trunk through the brick wall leading me to platform 9 ¾ . Loads of people ran through the crowds looking for their loved ones. Everyone saying their goodbyes and hellos. The only thing I had on my mind was finding James. I had spent the summer with our distant aunt in America and I missed him like crazy. It had been the first time id been away from my whole family for that long. I was sad to leave at first and missed Mom and Dad like crazy until I received a letter from James telling me Sirius had moved in for 'personal' reasons.
The one person I can't even stand being in a room with is now living in my house. The first time I ever met Sirius was six years ago and he had become the biggest pain in my ass since. It's not just the constant fooling around with girl that breathes and has breasts or the way he always has a smart comment to make. What really makes me hate him is the constant pranking and rumors. My first year he told everyone I was in love with Severus Snape. After that was cleared up he then asked me to go on a walk with him down to the black lake where he pushed me in and then left. I had to walk all the way back by myself drenched in the middle of December, I ended up with a horrid cold. And that's just very little of what he's done to me. It didn't help that my first year I was practically in love with him, he used my soft spot for him as free entertainment.
I quickly realized in his eyes I was his best friend's little sister and he would never like me the way I liked him. So I gave up and what I felt for him became hatred.
Other than learning that horrible news, my summer was very pleasurable. My aunt had become someone very close to me and leaving was hard but I couldn't hide how excited I was to see James and everyone else, Not including Sirius.
"Mavis Potter!" I turned to see one of my favorite blondies. "Pete!" I yell, dropping my trunk and running towards the boy. He engulfs me in a big hug picking me up off the ground squeezing me tightly. "Mav, how was your summer? I almost didn't recognize you!" He smiles, setting me back down.
"I haven't changed that much!" I smile trying to ignore the obvious change in my appearance. "It was amazing, Yours?" I smile at my close friend. Peter was my buddy, when we both felt left out by the others we found ourselves going on side quests. He was like one of the girls and often found himself hanging out with my friends in the library. "As good as it gets!" He smiles.
Before I could respond, long arms wrap around my torso squeezing me tightly. I admittedly recognize the comforting smell of coffee and warm vanilla. Remus Lupin. "I. Cant. Breath." I choke out over exaggerating. "That's what you get for barely writing to me!" He giggles letting go. His deep thick voice made me feel at home again. I knew I was at Hogwarts when he was with me. I quickly turn and pull him into a hug. Remus was like my brother, he had become my best friend and being near him was comforting. "Well, I brought you a gift back from America to make up for it! It's in my trunk!" I smile letting him go. "Wow, am I chopped liver?" Peter chuckles from behind me. "Of course I brought you something!" I step aside so I can see both the boys.
