The Train Ride and New Friends

Y/N's POV


I sat in my train compartment looking out of the window in silence, before looking up at the sound of a voice, "Excuse me, do you mind? Every where else is full." Said the redhead from earlier.


"Not at all." I answered gesturing to the seats across from me, as the red head smiled and went tp sit in front of me.


"I'm Ron, by the way. Ron Weasley." Ron said smiling.


"I'm Y/N, Y/N Potter." I say watching as his smiling face turned into a look of shock.


"So.. So is it true? I mean.. do you really have the.." He says pointing at his forehead.


"The What?" I question.


"The Scar." He whispered back.


"Oh.." I say in realization as I slightly move my hair that was blocking the scar on forehead.


"Wicked." Ron said in a state of awe as I laughed at his reaction.


I turn my head as a older lady, pushing a trolley full of candy stops at our compartment, "Anything off the trolley, dears?" She asked.


"No thanks, I'm all set." Ron said sadly holding up a bag of mushed up sandwiches.


"We'll take the lot." I told her pulling outa handful of coins from my pocket.


"Woah." Said Ron.


After receiving a bunch pf candy, we were sitting our compartment trying all of them and talking. "Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans?" I question holding up a box.


"They mean every flavor." Ron says next to me, before taking a bite of a candy in his hand. "There's chocolate and peppermint and there's also spinach, liver, and tripe." He says as I try one but quickly spit it out.


"George sweared he got a booger-flavor one once." He says as he continues to eat his candy.


I pick up a box that read 'Chocolate Frog', "These aren't real frogs, are they?" I ask.


"It's just a spell, besides its the card you want." Answered Ron. "Each Packs got a famous witch or wizard, I got about 500 of them myself."


I open the box and see a brown frog sitting inside, It quickly jumps onto the window, "Watch it." Said Ron as it climbed up to the open part of the window and tried jumping out only for it to blown away by the wind.


"Oh.. That's rotten luck, they've only got one good jump in them to begin with." Said Ron as I begin to look at the card I got.


"I've got Dumbledore." I say looking back up at him.


"I've got about six of him." Said Ron as I look back down only to see that he was gone now.


"Hey, he's gone." I say looking back up at Ron.


"Well, you can't expect him to hang around all day, can you?" Ron says as I look down at the rat in his lap that is eating out of one of the candy boxes. "This is Scabbers, by the way. Pathetic isn't he?" He's looking down at the rat as well.


"Just a little bit." I say back.


"Fred gave me a spell to turn him yellow. Want to see?" He questions.


"Yea." I say smiling at him.


I watch eagerly, as Ron pulls out his wand and clears his throat before beginning to say the spell, but his cut off by a girl with bushy brown hair stopping at our compartment.


She quickly looked around the compartment before sighing and asking, "Has anyone seen a toad? A boy named Neville's lost one."


"No." Ron answers as he shakes his head.


"Oh.. are you doing magic? Lets see then." She said as Ron cleared his throat again.


"Sunshine, daisies, butter mellows, turn this stupid fat rat yellow." He said pointing his wand at the rat, as the box he had his head in was blown away, Ron looked at me and shrugged.


"Are you sure that's a real spell?" Asked the girl. "Well it's not very good, is it? Of course, I've only tried to do simple ones myself, but they've all worked for me." She says before pulling out her wand and sitting across from me pointing it towards my face. "For example, Oculus Reparo." She says causing the tape on the bridge of my glasses, that were holding them together to fly off and disappear, as I quickly take them off to examine them. "That's better, isn't it?" She asks as I turn to look at Ron as we share a look of shock before turning back to her when I hear her gasp. "Holy Cricket. You're Y/N Potter. I'm Hermione Granger, and you are?" She said looking at Ron as I put my glasses back on.


"I'm Ron Weasley." He said, still eating.


"Pleasure." She said before looking back at me, "You two better change into your robes, I expect we'll be arriving soon." She said before getting up about to walk out of the compartment, before stopping and turning to Ron, "You've got dirt on your nose, by the way. Did you know?" She told him rubbing a certain spot on her nose. "Just there." She said before walking away as he rubbed his nose. I quickly got up to leave the compartment to go change into my robes.
