It was the beginning of yet another year at Hogwarts, it was now Autumn, the first of September, which showed from the leaves turning into auburns and browns and falling from the trees leaving them empty as the leaves piled up on the floor with a crunch to them, even to the bitter breezes that picked up.

Parents were dropping off first years to the train whilst talking to them and telling them the usual not to worry about it all whilst sending them to the Hogwarts express, waving them off.

Lily had her satchel bag slung over her shoulder to keep it with her, as her luggage was brought up onto the train, as people rushed through to the platform not wanting to end up late for the first day back.

Lily was chatting with her friends, Mary and Marlene whilst they boarded the train, walking through the isle with the many students fulling it, as she chuckled at eager first years, shaking her head in amusement, whilst they continued down the isle

Lily spotted a compartment as she nodded to her friends as she entered, with a warn smile "Mind if we sit with you?" She spoke kindly, a kind grin on her face as her eyes were focused on you, as she was stood at the door patiently, her hair cascading down her back.
