Time skip because I originally wrote two chapters, but one of them didn't save or something and now it's deleted. And I'm too lazy to rewrite it.
"Are you one hundred percent sure you got everything?" My mothers asks while hugging me tightly. "Yes, I'm sure, don't worry." I reassure her.
"Come on dear, y/n will miss her train if she doesn't get going." My dad chuckles and rests his hand on my shoulder.
My mother pulls away and stares at me with teary eyes "I can't believe you're already fifteen. Feels like yesterday when you first boarded the train to start your first year."
I give her a soft smile. "Stop, you're going to make me cry. You know I don't like crying."
"Of course," She chuckles.
I say my last goodbyes to my parents and board the train.
Already my fifth year, wow time does fly fast. And this year we will take our O.W.L's. If I'm honest, not looking forward to that.
I walk through the train trying to find any of my friends. I don't pay attention and walk straight into someone.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! I wasn't looking where I was going." I apologize.
I look up at the person I had ran into.
"Jasper, I didn't realize it's you!" I exclaim pulling the brunette into a hug.
He laughs and hugs me back. "Don't worry, it's fine. I haven't seen you for so long! How was your summer?"
"Oh it was wonderful! I went to Italy to visit my aunt, you know the one that I told you about." He nods. "I had so much fun with my little cousin. Who could've known that little children could be this fun?"
"I'm glad you had fun!" He smiles.
Finally I take a good look at him. He has changed a bit over the summer. His brunette hair has gotten longer, and has soft curls in them that frame his face. His blue eyes look still as mesmerizing as always. And he's definitely taller.
"Geez, you've gotten so much taller over the summer." I point out at our obvious height difference.
He laughs. "Yeah, I have. Can't say the same about you though." He smirks.
I look at him offended "What! I'm tall, okay? Just because I didn't grow so much over the summer, and I'm not abnormally tall, doesn't mean I'm not tall."
"You sure got defensive over that." He chuckles "And I'm not abnormally tall."
I stare at him for a moment. "Okay, Mr. 'Oh I am so tall that I can make fun of other's height.'" I roll my eyes.
"Okay, okay. I won't bully you for your height, I promise." He places his hand on his heart.
"You better not." I warn him.
"I promise."
"Good. Anyways, I have to go and find my friends. Maybe we could catch up sometime this week?" I ask him hopefully.
"Sure, that would be nice." He agrees.
"Okay, sounds good. Bye!" I wave goodbye at him and continue walking.
Suddenly the compartment door next to me opens. What are the chances! The one who opened the door is Sirius.
"Don't worry, I will-" Sirius begins to say something but spots me and grins. "Actually Prongs, she's right here!" He pulls me by my arm into the compartment.
Prongs? Who is Prongs?
I didn't even have the chance to greet anybody, before Sirius starts speaking again.
"Quick, sit down. We have important matters to discuss right now." He hurries me and pushes me backwards by my shoulders to sit down.
But of course, one of my foot gets caught behind the other. I yelp in surprise and fall backwards, and crash onto James.
"Sorry," I mumble, looking up at him.
"It's alright, darling."
I feel my heart leap. His voice has gotten deeper. A lot. And he is even more handsome, no doubt.
"You know, girls keep falling for me." He smirks and looks down at me.
Okayyy. He ruined the moment.
I roll my eyes and push his face away with my hand. "Huh-uh, sure they do."
"You sure did." Sirius points out.
"I didn't, you pushed me." I glare at him.
"Stage one is denial." He shrugs.
"And so are your feelings for Re-" James quickly covers my mouth with his hand.
Peter and Remus look confused, and Sirius blushes.
Sirius and blushing? Now that's something new.
"You sure like to talk a lot sweetheart, don't you?" James chuckles nervously.
I hit his arm so he would take it away from my mouth.
"And you sure like making people quiet and use your hand, don't you" I comment.
James just freezes and looks at me in shock.
Remus bursts out laughing.
Sirius and Peter just stare at me, not expecting that response from me.
"Uh, anyways," Sirius starts uncertain. "We're getting off track here."
"Wait, one question." I interrupt Sirius. "Who is Prongs?"
"James is." Remus nods towards James.
I turn to James, confused. He is still stunned from earlier and a bit flustered. He gives a little nod.
I smirk. "You look adorable when you're flustered."
Where is this sudden boldness coming from? I really don't know.
"Shut up, I'm not flustered." He mumbles and turns away from me.
"Can you two stop flirting for a moment." Peter asks.
"No they can't. Let's continue." Sirius responds and moves back to our previous topic.
"No, wait. I still don't understand the name." I cut him off again.
"Our new nicknames. I'm Padfoot, James is Prongs, Remus is Moony, and Peter is Wormtail." Sirius explains.
I look at each of them, puzzled. "I'm lost. I mean Remus's makes sense, moony, the moon and all the werewolf thing. But you three?"
"Well, if you-" James starts explaining.
"Actually, don't even start explaining. I will end up even more confused than I am. Continue Sirius." I nod at Sirius.
James gives me an offended look.
"Okay. I was thinking, what if we make a map of Hogwarts, that shows where everyone is at the exact moment and what they're doing." Sirius proposes.
"Only we five would have access to it. And it could have all of our secret passages." He goes on.
"We could call it 'the marauders map'"
Sorry, this isn't the best chapter, I just wanted to update. (Definitely didn't get threats from someone specific.) But I plan to write one or two chapters tomorrow!
