We exited the train and walked with Luna and the others to the carriages. My sister, Sue and Amanda filled up a carriage with a girl named Cho and 2 others. Me and Luna walked to the next available carriage in a comfortable silence. As we sat down, side by side, in the carriage Luna started to read her copy of the Quibbler. I thought it a bit odd to read her fathers tabloid, when she has probably already heard everything that goes into it. I leaned against the front of the carriage and admired the creature that would take us to Hogwarts. A Thestral, Luna called it. I opened my book and started to read before I heard voices.
“You’re not going mad. I can see them too. You’re just as sane as I am.” Luna said. I looked up from my book slightly to see who she was talking to. I recognized his face. It was Harry Potter, The Boy who Lived... and technically... my god-brother. I quickly looked back down at my book.
“Everyone this is Loony Love-” A girl with bushy hair started before a short, awkward pause, “Luna Lovegood.” She quickly finished and looked away, then turned back towards me. I started to shake a bit, I could feel their eyes on me, probably waiting for me to say something. “I’ve never seen you before. I’m Hermione Granger.” The girl stated. I simply smiled and nodded, a lump was forming in my throat. “This is Ron Weasley, Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom.” She introduced the 3 other people in the carriage.
“I-I’m Devan Black.” I stuttered under my breath.
“I’m sorry, what was that?” Harry asked.
“Devan Black.” Luna answered for me, I let out a sigh of relief, “She’s rather quiet.” I looked back up at them expecting to see shocked or scared expressions. I was right, they were all pretty shocked.
“Black? As in-?” Ron started.
“Sirius Black?” Harry finished his sentence. I gave a quick nod. I saw a slight hint of happiness in Harry’s eyes, like just saying the name brought him relief.
“I-I guess that kinda makes us god siblings Harry.” I spoke up a bit, my voice slightly cracking halfway through the sentence.
“i-I guess it does.” Harry smiled, I couldn’t help but smile back.
“What an interesting necklace.” Hermione said to Luna.
“Thanks. It’s a charm actually.” Luna stated, “Keeps away the nargles.” I could see everyone shift uncomfortably. I laughed a bit and noticed Neville look up from his plant at me, and I gave him a little smile. Maybe, just maybe, making friends isn’t all that hard.
