CHAPTER-6
FROM 9 ¾ TO...
PART TWO

We are in a new compartment now. Maximus helped us find this new compartment and shift our luggage. He was really angry about the dungbomb scene and also amused how he had never thought to do the same. We were sorry about the frog mess as well, so we apologize sincerely to him. He later offered us Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans which we loved very much because it was very exciting to try one after another beans to know which flavor we would get next. And now everything seems normal.

Maximus left us a few minutes ago and now it's just me and Ishya. We are now trying other things from The Honeydukes Express, the food trolley. It is peaceful. And now we were laughing a lot about everything that happened to us from this morning. It isn't even that funny but life is funny, in one way or another. Ishya was just angry at that dungbomb because of which we needed to change the compartment, but only for a few minutes. Later on she also thought it was funny. On that, my mind wandered on those gray eyes.

I wasn't able to see where he vanished after he left me, partly because of the dungbomb smoke spreading all around and partly because of my eyes which were holding tears. Neither was I able to look at his full face, just the eyes and the arms that wrapped around me, but it was enough to tell me that he was beautiful. Sirius.

"Saai!!" I jerked a little and looked at Ishya who was now looking at me worriedly. "Are you fine?! Are you sick?"
"No no. Ummm....I was just so mesmerized by the mountain range outside that I didn't hear you. What were you saying?"
"Oh! Then it's fine. But it wasn't me who was talking." She turned her face to the compartment door. I followed her gaze and looked at two boys, one of them was slightly taller than the other.
"They were asking if they could join us in the compartment!" Ishya whispered to me. "Turns out they were victims of the dungbomb mischief as well!"
"Oh. So should we let them in?!" I asked her back in a whisper the same as hers. I know it looked so suspicious but this conversation was important. We decided to tell them no and we did exactly the same.
"But why?!!!" The shorter one literally made a mouth. He had yellow hairs which was shining like gold hairs in the sunlight with grass green eyes and freckles from his nose to both his left and right cheeks, and I found it very attractive. On the other hand, the other boy was a little taller and thinner than him. He has brown colored hair, unlike mine, his hairs just give a very clear sight of it being brown. And his eyes were honey brown, with a little mole right below his left eye. Beautiful.

Aa if he sensed me staring at him, he looked at me and smiled a little. I returned his smile. And then I decided to calm the fight going between Ishya and the golden boy.
"Well there is so much space!!! Just let us sit here!!" The golden boy was now yelling angrily. I really thought Ishya is the only one making a puff face while angry, but this boy just proved that wrong. Even his fair face was now all red.
"I said no! It's our compartment!!"
"It's not 'your' compartment! We can come in here and sit as well!!"
He is right and I should control my laugh right now because both of them have a puffed face with the same red color on it. But this is not right. None of them wants to back down. I don't know what caused Ishya to be so aggressive, but guess it's just the golden boy's appearance. All princely.
"I know it's not 'mine', but we came here first!"
"And that doesn't mean that it's 'yours'!!"
"You smell like a dungbomb!!!"
"And you smell like a dungbomb shower!!!"
"Then you look like a yellow parrot!!"
I put my hands on my mouth because this was so funny. I knew Ishya wasn't that calm, but I didn't know she could be this much furious as well. Guess the golden boy didn't want to quit as well.
"Then you look like a little rat with little braids!!"
"You talk like a monkey!!!"
"And you act like a monkey!!"
Well this was getting serious.
"I think we should try to stop them." The honey boy said to me in which I agreed completely.
"You take care of the golden boy, I will handle my friend." He looked at me questionably, and I guess 'the golden boy' phrase was out of my tongue. Rather than saying something to me, he went between the fighting people. I expected him to say something to make them understand that it's not right to fight or to do some magic as he was taking something out of his blazer, but he did the most unpredictable thing.
He took out a very small bag, size of his hands, pulled the rope from it and kept that palm between them and said, "You guys want some cookies?!" with a satisfying smile.
