 Wonky Knee
A sixteen year old boy with black messy hair and a very handsome face walked through the barriers onto Platform 9 3/4, rolling his trolly with him. James turned around as he found his parents give him a parting hug and warned him to stay out of trouble and give their love to Sirius. Having spent a lot of time over the summer with Sirius, James could safely say that his parents loved Sirius like their own son, if not more. If there was anyone in the world he trusted other than himself, it was Padfoot. Of course Moony and Wormtail were very close to him too, but Sirius was the closest of them all. It must be the result of all the hours they had spent in detentions together.
James bid his goodbye to his parents and walked through the crowd to find his fellow Marauders. He was sure Moony would already be there. Sirius had his habbit of turning up just on time. James was a lot like that too, but his parents had forced him to hurry up. Besides, James was looking forward to meeting Lily and was determined he was going to get her to go out with him this year, no matter what. Of course that is the promis he has been making to himself since fourth year, but he hasn't gone very far in his attempt.
A smile spread across his face when he found Sirius and Remus. He walked up to them and smiled. "Morning Padfoot and Moony." He said, standing next to Remus. "Ready for another year at Hogwarts?" He said, looking at both of them. "And Wormtail hasn't arrived yet, has he?" He looked around, pretending to look for Wormtail, but his eyes were searching for the sight of a familliar red head called Lily Evans. |
