"First 'ears! This way!"
Harry and Emilia had changed into their robes and stepped off the train, walking up to a very happy Hagrid.
"'Ere you two are. Now, in 'te boats. Off with ya, now."
Harry stepped into a boat but before Emilia could sit next to him, someone pushed her out of the way and she fell onto the dock.
"So, is it true you're the real Harry Potter?" The boy who had pushed Emilia down started firing questions at Harry. He tried to get to Emilia, but the obnoxious boy kept getting in the way. Emilia just shrugged and made her way to another boat.
"What's your name?" the boy next to Emilia asked. It seemed no one wanted to be near him, seeing he had the boat basically to himself. Emilia hesitated. "It's okay if you don't want to talk. No one really talks with me anyways." He looked down and twiddled with his thumbs, trying to avoid tears.
"Emilia," Emilia whispered. The boy looked up at her, completely glowing. "I'm Emilia." She put her hand out for him to shake. He happily shook it and smiled.
"My names Fred."
"What?" Emilia eyed the boy, confused by his sudden change in hair color of brown to red. Was changing hair a normal thing among these people?
A mischievous grin creeped onto the boys face. He suddenly grew very tall and Emilia knew.
"Fred. You're not a first year." Emilia laughed.
"I know, I know. But I saw you having a hard time and I figured I'd make you feel better with a little joke." They both laughed, Fred coming back to his entire older self.
"George?"
"He's in the carriages, flirting with Katie Belle. He won't even notice I'm gone."
Harry looked over at a boat that had only two people. Trying his best to ignore the annoying boy, he looked at Emilia who was laughing with someone who didn't look like a first year.
The funny thing was that they were talking.
Harry was glad that she was more comfortable with talking, but he couldn't help but feel a ping of jealousy, as he'd never made Emilia laugh like that."She turned her own hair blue?" Emilia snorted out.
"Yeah! And blamed it on us!" Fred laughed. "I swear, you and Ginny will fit like two peas in a pod." Emilia laughed.
"I bet."
As Fred and Emilia were laughing, Fred looked up and smiled. He muttered,
"Every time I see the castle like this. No matter how many times. I will always love it." He carefully took Emilia by the chin and had her look at the extravagant castle that would be their home for the next year."This truly is amazing." Emilia looked up at the castle, nearly leaning out of the boat. Fred sat back, admiring Emilia and how she had the same little sparkle in her eye as when he first saw the amazing place.

"Hide me!"
"How!" Emilia whisper yelled, trying her best not to laugh. "You're twice my size!"
Emilia did her best to hide Fred from the teachers as they walked into the castle.
They arrived at the top of a staircase where a woman told everyone of the houses and how the school worked.
Fred stayed in the back and Emilia went to the front.Before the professor could turn and leave, she caught eye of Emilia and nearly fell back. She muttered; "Lilly." The professor quickly shook it off and stepped into the great hall.
