James p.o.v
"PRONGSIE, WERE IS MY HAIRBRUSH!?!" The face of his best friend and fellow marauder, Sirius Black was the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes. Ugghh " I don't know, Padfoot probably in the bathroom?" He said groggily, yawning
"Thank you prongs you complete life saver", he called dashing into his own en suite. "But why the heck are you looking for your hair brush at the crack of dawn?" Asked James, now fully awake. "Because I need my hair to look it's most fabulous, especially at Hogwarts", he stated pulling a 'duh' face.
"HOGWARTS!!" James cheered excitedly. " Sixth year, wonder what that'll be like" said Sirius, head cocked slightly to the side as he thought. "Well I think now we're sixth years we should be more responsible" James said smirking. They both looked at eachother for a moment and then burst out laughing. The famous marauders , pranking extrodanaires? Responsible? Never!
After a quick breakfast, James and Sirius were finishing up packing and talking about the year to come. "Do you think this'll be the year?” He said, one eyebrow raised. "The year for what?" Said a puzzled James. "The year Evans finally says yes", he exclaimed exasperated. "Well, I thought maybe we could try be friends first this year ", he said looking unusually embarrassed, a small blush on his face that, for once, Sirius didn't tease him about like he'd pretended not to notice.
He couldn't wait to see lily again. Yes, she hated him,but this year things were going to be different.
.. time skip..
"Now you boys stay safe!", Mrs Potter was calling after Sirius and James."and try not to get in to too much trouble!" The boys just laughed and waved goodbye over their shoulders making there was through the crowded platform towards the Hogwarts Express.
As Sirius ran on ahead to save their favourite compartment , James saw her. Lily Evans. Her long Auburn hair was spinning out behind her as she spun round to greet her friends, her emerald green eyes shining with joy. She looked amazing as usual and , if anything,gotten more beautiful over the summer, if possible. James sighed. He should just focus on trying to be friends for now.
He quickly strolled over, smiling genuinely. When she saw him approach her face turned cold "what do you want Potter" she asked."Hello to you too,Lily. Have a good summer?" He said. She looked surprised for a moment before responding "meh,it's was ok" she said looking slightly glum. "You sure ? You look a bit sad thinking about it. It's ok though, I'll make sure you have a great year. Now, I must go, I'm afraid I have been summoned"he finished chirpily striding of to a waiting Remus Lupin, who had been calling his name for the last minute.
"PRONGS!" He shouted, giving me a bear hug
"MOONEY" I shouted back. Man, I missed him. He could actually sometimes keep padfoot under control!
"Good to see you man" I said grinning
"Furry little problem didn't get too bad without us, did it?". I questioned, worried.
"Nah, nothing I can't handle” he said with a small smile.
Remus was a werewolf. He'd been bitten as a child and didn't think Hogwarts would take him. But Dumbledore built a passage that he could use that led to the 'haunted' shrieking shack. It was a painful transformation and it was hard to bear on his own so, as soon as we figured it out, Me, Sirius and Peter decided to try become animagi. After a few years we finally cracked it. I, Prongs, was a stag, Sirius, padfoot, was a big dog, and Peter, wormtail, was a rat, hence the nicknames.
Arriving at our compartment Sirius gave a shriek of “WORMY!” we all started laughing. This was gonna be a good year.
