Lily, Morgan and Louise searched the train for James and the Marauders. Several times they stopped to talk to other people they knew in Gryffindor. Louise stopped for at least five minutes talking to Victoria Green who played Quidditch for Gryffindor. Louise was a beater along with Sirius Black. Lily and Morgan have to endure Louise blabbering about how immature Sirius is at training every day. Victoria is very tall and athletic with bright blonde hair and brown eyes.

            Once Lily and Morgan dragged Louise away, they walked past the compartment Alex was sitting in. Louise and Morgan both waved over-cheerfully and chimed “Hiiii Alex” in their girly voices. Lily punched their arm playfully and kept pushing them down the carriage, whilst blushing quite a lot.

            Finally, they found the Marauders sitting in a compartment at the opposite end of the train. Lily didn’t really want to be the one to knock so she pleaded with Morgan to do it.

She clicked her tongue. “I don’t think so. In you go.” She pushed Lily forward. Lily knocked quietly on the door twice. All the boys were there; James, Remus, Sirius and Peter. James was sitting on the left, closest to the window with Peter opposite, Remus next to him and Sirius sitting next to Peter. James Potter was reading a book. Lily thought that was probably the most likely scene she would ever see. The Marauders never studied, with the exception of Remus.

            Remus had an old piece of parchment in is lap and was waving his wand over it. Lily couldn’t see what was on it. Sirius and Peter were in an intense game of Wizard Chess, Peter losing badly.

            They all stopped what they were doing and looked up when she knocked. James and Lily locked eyes. He smiled. She was about to smile back when Sirius’ face appeared in front of her, grinning like a mad dog.

“Oh miss Evans, how lovely to see you. Who’s this? Miss Reid and miss Taylor! Please come in!” he exclaimed, opening the sliding door and gesturing for them to enter.

“Shut up, Black.” Lily said, smiling slightly.

            Lily sat next to Sirius, now she was closest to the door. Morgan and Louise squished in next to Remus; Morgan nearest to the door and Louise right beside Remus. Louise and Remus looked at each other before quickly looking away, blushing furiously. They would make a good couple, Lily thought. She made eye contact with Louise and raised her eyebrows. Louise blushed a bit and shook her head.

Morgan was the first to speak. “Hey Remus, what was that thing you were holding?” She asked.

Remus glanced at Sirius and quickly said, “It was nothing – just a spare bit of parchment. I was bored but now you guys are here so yeah...” Morgan shrugged her shoulders in response.

“So what have you girlies been up to lately?” Sirius asked.

“We are not ‘girlies’.” Morgan said. Sirius smirked.

“Not much.” Lily replied, taking a book out of her bag, pulling knees up to her chest and opening up to the page she was last reading.

“Well, Morgan met up with her new boyfriend yesterday at Diagon Alley.” Louise announced.

“Louise!” Morgan yelled, shoving her friend.

“Hey, how come I didn’t know about this? I was there as well!” Lily said. Why wouldn’t they tell her? Surely they would tell her if Morgan had a boyfriend.
