Lily stood on the platform of 9 3/4 again, looking around. Scorpius, Rose, and Hugo stood with her, Grey was at home, asleep. 

Everything looked so different to her now, she recognized more people who were moving in and out of the platform. She spotted the brown hair and Fedora of Fara Jordan and her brother Louis Jordan as they made their way towards the train, right past Lily and her little group. Fara smiled, getting on the train. 

Scorpius nudged her and said, "We should be getting on."

Lily nodded and hurried onto the train, waving goodbye to Draco and Hermione, who were waving back. Lily walked up the stairs, her bag bumping against her as she hurried inside. Lily ran into a figure and looked up to see Fara Jordan, her eyes wide. "Well, clumsy much?" Fara asked, smiling as she helped Lily up.

Lily smiled, rubbing her neck as Scorpius came up, Luis appearing behind Fara, frowning. Scorpius frowned at Luis, taking Lily's upper arm and leading her away. "Come on Lily, we should get a compartment before they are all full," Scorpius hissed out, glaring back at Luis, who stood protectively over Fara. 

Luis was frowning as Lily looked back at him, Fara scolding him as Scorpius led her into a compartment where Rose and Hugo were already waiting. "What took so long?" Rose asked, looking up from petting her ginger kitten, which was curled up her lap.

"Ran into unexpected company," Scorpius said, closing the door behind him and sitting down next to Hugo, who was reading.

Rose smiled, nodding before looking back out the window, they were now leaving the station. "When do you think the trolley will be by?" hugo suddenly asked as Lily sat down, Mutante cooing at her as she pet him.

"Seriously Hugo? We just had breakfast," Rose said, rolling her eyes at her brother.

"But I'm hungry!"


It didn't take long for the trolley woman to show up with her grey hair and smiles. They got some of everything from the trolley and they were now smiling and talking as they ate their sweets. Scorpius was working on Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, Rose was eating a cockroach cluster, Hugo was nibbling at a chocolate frog and Lily was snacking on a box of Fizzing Whizbees. Hugo opened another chocolate frog and didn't catch it in time and it jumped on Rose, who freaked out, throwing the frog on the floor and screaming at Hugo, who was laughing. Scorpius and Lily snickered, watching Rose throw the frog at Hugo, who stuck his tongue out. "I'm not going to eat it now, it's been on you."

Rose fumed, turning the color of her hair and yelling, "You bumbling idiot!"

Scorpius smiled, Lily laughed and Hugo snickered. This was going to be an interesting train ride.
