It Started with a boy on a Luggage Rack

The Meeting

I skipped the first few chapters and a little bit of chapter six cause those are relatively the same except the George and Fred don't stop by so Ron doesn't know who Harry is until he introduces himself.

Also I just realized that the lead up to getting to Hogwarts takes up like a third of the book.

My POV

Harry walked into a compartment only to be met with someone saying, "Get off the luggage rack!"

He stopped in the doorway and looked up. Laying on the rack meant to hold travelers luggage was a boy.

Said boy shot off a spell from his wand, "BORED!"

Still startled, Harry said, "Um. Hello. Can I sit in here?"

The smaller boy turned around abruptly, "Oh. Sorry I didn't notice you. Of course you can sit here. It's just me and Sherlock. I'm John by the way."

Harry nodded and went all the way in before sitting down. He watched for a bit as John tried to get Sherlock to come down from the rack. As he watched he thought about helping but just as he was going to stand up another boy opened the door.

"Hullo. Can I sit here..." The ginger boy trailed off as he looked up and saw Sherlock. "Oi. Sherlock. What're you sittin up there for?"

John sighed but smiled at the new boy, "Hello Ron. Sherlock is pouting because he's bored."

Sherlock rolled over to face them, "I do not pout."

Ron shrugged, "You kinda are Holmes." said boy scoffed and rolled over.

John sighed again and put his face in his hands before looking up with new determination in his eyes, "If you don't come down this second no more cuddles for a week."

Harry looked puzzled but Ron just plopped down on the seat next to him, "Don't worry this is normal. He'll come down in a bit."

The two seated boys watched as Sherlock rolled over again, "Do you mean that?"

John nodded, "Oh yes."

With that the brunette's eyes widened and he rolled off the luggage rack, landing on his feet. Once he had come down he sat down and pulled John into his lap and, as John squirmed around trying to reach a bag that the other two boys now noticed was on the floor, picked up the bag and handed it to John who took out a book about medicinal herbs before settling down and reading.

"So, how is everyone Ron?" Sherlock asked as if he didn't have someone on his lap.

"They're all fine. How's Mycroft? Heard he got head boy."

"He's fine and yes he did. Mummy says to tell you that she hopes you have a good year and to apologize for not being able to have dinner with you last Saturday. We went out to celebrate Mycroft getting head boy."

Ron waved his hand, "It's fine. Oh! I forgot we haven't introduced ourselves yet," he gestured to himself, I'm Ron Weasley and those two sickeningly sweet lovebirds," He gestured at their other companions, "Are Sherlock Holmes and John Watson."

Sherlock looked up from where he'd had his chin on John's shoulder and scowled, "We are not sickeningly sweet or lovebirds."

Ron snorted, "Right. What are you then?"

Sherlock opened his mouth before closing it, "Hm. I don't actually know. We've never talked about it before." He nudged the boy in his lap, "John. What are we?"

John looked up, "I suppose the term most people use in boyfriends. But aren't we like betrothed or something? You did say we were going to marry just never anything else."

Sherlock nodded, "I think so." he turned to Ron, "There you have it. We're dating."

Ron sighed and shook his head before turning to Harry, "Anyway, what's your name?"

"Oh that's easy." Sherlock spoke up "He's-" he was cut off when John made a well placed jab to his ribs.

"My name is Harry. Harry Potter."

"You're Harry Potter?"

Harry shrank back, "Yes?"

The other boys backed off, noticing that Harry looked uncomfortable.

"You probably don't know why we know who you are huh?" John asked gently, giving him a comforting smile.

Harry shook his head, "Not really. When I went into the Leaky Cauldron everyone started treating me like a celebrity."

Ron looked at him incredulously, "Of course they did! Do you not know what happened to you and your parents?!"

Harry shook his head but before he could say anything a boy and a girl opened the compartment door.

"Excuse me but do you mind if we join you? Everywhere else was full."

The boys shook their heads, "You're fine."

They sat down and the girl introduced them, "I'm Hermoine Granger and this is Nevile Longbottom. Who are you all?"

Ron introduced them again, "I'm Ron Weasley, those two are Sherlock Holmes and John Watson they're dating if you've got any problems leave. And this is Harry Potter."

Hermoine and Nevile gasped, "You're Harry Potter?!"

"Yes...? Why am I such a big deal?!"

"You're the one who killed You-Know-Who!" Ron exclaimed.

"But I've never even met him!"

Ron shrugged and the conversation turned elsewhere.

After the six of them had been talking (Well, talking may not be the right word for Sherlock as he mostly just sat silently before interjecting every so often.) The compartment door opened again. This in and of itself was surprising because the train had already started moving. Sherlock however knew who was at the door and curled his arms around John a little tighter.

The door was opened by a small boy with blond hair who Harry recognized from Madame Malkins. "Hello Potter. I see you've made yourself acquainted with Sherlock."

Harry frowned a bit at the way Malfoy said his new friend's name, "Do you have a problem with my friends?"

"Yeah, Malfoy. Do you?" John crossed his arms as Sherlock glared at the boy.

Malfoy paled, remembering the time he'd called John a mud-blood only to get punched in the nose by said boy and hexed by his furious boyfriend.

"Uh. No. Definitely not." Malfoy turned around with the two boys by his side and ran away.

"Sorry about that." John smiled at the others, "Malfoy can be a git but he really doesn't know what to do with me."

Hermoine waved her hand, "It's fine. You can't control him."

With that the conversation continued until they reached Hogwarts, but they did buy some food from the trolley that came by. And finally, after the rather long train ride they arrived at Hogwarts.

When they got off they saw Hagrid who was ushering the first years to the boats.

"Right! This way first years! Harry! Good to see you!"

Harry smiled and waved to him before getting in a boat with Ron, Hermoine, and Neville. John and Sherlock were joined by two girls and they set off all at once. Then, they were at Hogwarts and everyone got out of their boats before going to wait at the doors.
