Hogwarts Express

The two familys walked together, the parents in front walking confidently. The kids walked behind them, one walking gracefully, one quietly, one enthusiastic. Astrid walked with grace and power, just as her mother had taught her. She wore a yellow longsleeve turtleneck, tucked into a skirt that hung around her knees. A thin, black belt fit the top of the skirt and a mustard yellow satchel hung over her shoulder. Her owl sat on her shoulder, a thing the animal had been doing since her first year. In one hand she held her trunk, the gold ingravment of her name shone on the side, in the other hand held her favorite book, a fantasy novel. Sirius walked excitedly, he was ready to be at Hogwarts, his real home. He was ready to see his friends and play pranks on 'Snivellous'.  Most of all, he was ready to be rid of his parents. Regulus walked beside Astrid, quietly toting his owl and trunk. On the inside, he was very happy to be going back to school. He was looking forward to spending his forth year with Evan and Astrid, it would be his first year hanging out with her at school. Astrid had told him about her best friend, Mel, and she seemed like quite the character. It seemed there would be a new group of 4 at Hogwarts this year, and Regulus was very happy to be part of it. 

      The steam of the glistening red train swirled around the crowded station, witches and wizards were everywhere. There was students of every age were parting from their parents. First years looked around in amazement, Seventh years were being hugged by their sniffling parents, as it would be their last year. Second through sixth year were running around and looking for friends or talking with parents and siblings.  

     Sirius ran off as soon as the train was in view, "Oi! James!", and went to go find his Gryffindor buddies. Regulus stiffly said goodbye to his parents and Astrid gave her mother a small hug before leaving with the black haired boy. The two found a compartment and put away their belongings. With a flash of brown and pink, Astrid was attacked in a hug. 

"Aatrid! I've been looking for you." A girl in a white romper, with brown curly hair and tan skin finally let go of Astrid. 

   "Hey Mel, sorry, I couldn't find you anywhere." 

    "It's ok, who's this?" she nodded to Regulus. 

   "Mel, this is Regulus Black, a friend of mine. Reg, this is Mel, my best friend." 

     She started to say something  but was interrupted by a boy with sandy blond hair standing in the doorway of the compartment. 

    "Regulus, how dare you! I've been replaced." He cried dramatically. Regulus chuckled.

"Ladies, meet my dramatic best mate, Evan Rosier."

"Astrid Blythe and Melanie, call her Mel, Renée." Astrid told him. He bowed over enthusiastically and looked over at Reg. Smirking he said, "I've heard a lot about you from", he cleared his throat, "someone...". 

    "Oh, have you?" Astrid glanced over to see Regulus giving Evan a look. 

  The train ride was very enjoyable. The four students learned alot about each other and got along amazingly. They talked, laughed, joked, and snacked on their favorite sweets from the trolley. Mel and Astrid chatted about what all was new, the people in their year and the drama. Regulus and Evan talked about the coming year, quidditch, and their summers. Overall, the group was very excited for their fourth year.
