Severus didn’t see anyone he knew there. Once on the train, he walked past a compartment. He quickly recognised Lily. But she was not alone four boys there too. Their names were James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettegrew.
“Lily come on. Let’s go somewhere else.”. James eyed Severus. They stared for long seconds without breaking eye contact. Something about it looked bad and it was indeed.

When they arrived a Hogwarts, he first years were sorted into their house. The houses were Grffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. All of the four boys from earlier were put in Grffindor. Severus’s nightmare came to life. Lil was to sorted into Gryffindor. He was horrified. He knew he would be in Slytherin because his mother had been in the same house. He correct. That night he could not sleep he was worried about her so much that he felt lonely. Meanwhile, on the other hand Lily was asleep in her four poster dreaming about crazy things he had told her once. Severus went to sleep alone, cold and sad. He dreamt about Lily next to Sirius laughing.
