A/N: the image is from a Harry Potter shop I went to yesterday it was litttt anyways back to the story :)

also this is a rlly bad chapter I'm sorry but I wanted a bit of a backstory for Y/N, and to kind of give you an idea of what kind of character Y/N is and her relationship with some characters:)

I really couldn't believe it. My 4th year at Hogwarts. How me and the boys hadn't been expelled or killed is beyond me - something all our parents seem to agree on based on the amount of howlers we received last year. Between pranking the whole Ravenclaw quidditch team after they beat Gryffindor, helping free Sirius Black and many other 'situations' we got into, me and the boys were surprised our parents didn't stop us from going this year. Well, except my parents. Or should I say

'I swear to god Y/N, if I have to call you down again you're going to run at that wall and crash instead of getting the train!'

'I said I'm coming dad! I just can't find my wand!'

'It isn't in your hair again is it?'

'What? Of course it isn't I -'

'You found it?'

'Maybe...'

'Let's get going then' Sirius Black said with a grin.

Did I forget to mention I'm Y/N Black? I did? Well here you go. And some people may think I'm Sirius' - they'd be absolutely right. And he's the best dad ever. Even if he wasn't here for most of my life because of Azkaban. When he was away, Sirius' cousin - Andromeda - looked after me. She's wonderful. Dad says I look like Andromeda a bit. And that I look like mum too.

Before we left, I went to find Kreacher. Whilst Kreacher hates my dad and my auntie Andromeda - he seems to be fond of me. Perhaps it's because I'm a pure blood still? I don't know. But I went to find him and gave him a gift - something he certainly didn't seem fond of but I did it anyway.

'Kreacher?' I called out up from the landing.

'Madame Black?' Kreacher croaked as he suddenly apparated in front of me.

'Here you go, I won't see you until Easter, so I thought I'd leave you a small gift for now and one for Christmas too.' I said, passing him two small boxes wrapped.

Kreacher didn't seem too impressed, but I insisted and ordered that he accept them so he'd keep them. I know he's kept all my gifts from me in his small cupboard. He's a strange elf but I like him.

'Kreacher will miss Madame Black' the hunched elf said, as he walked away towards the stairs.

'And i will miss you too.' I said.

And with that, I grabbed dad's arm and was in Kings Cross.

Kings Cross was my favourite place. The mix of muggles and wizards on such a large scale was quite interesting. Trying to guess who was magical and who wasn't was a game me and Sirius had been playing for a long time - but we had to skip it this year due to me wanting to sleep in.

'I bet you that tall woman there was a witch.' Sirius whispered to me.

'Dad - she works at the leaky cauldron we saw her a few days ago - that's cheating!' I replied with a playful frown on my face.

'But i still win.' He said winking at me as he ran between platform 9 and 10 and disappeared.

As I approached the train, two familiar redheads appeared.

'Hello Y/N' Fred said smiling at me.

'Hello Freddie - Hey Georgie!'

I walked up to them and was quickly joined by Lee.

'Good holidays boys?'

'With the amount of letters we were getting from you it felt like we were spending it with you Y/N!' Georgie replied cheekily.

'Next summer I won't write then!' I replied in a playfully hurt tone.

'Don't do that Y/N! Fred won't be able to smile all summer!' George said wriggling his eyebrows up and down at Fred. Fred began to go red.

'Oh shove off George.' We all began laughing.

Me and the boys hopped on the train after waving goodbye to our parents and quickly found a compartment. As we were talking, Cedric Diggory came past and flashed a smile at me. He opened the door and popped his head in.

'Hey Y/N! Fred, Lee, George...' Cedric said nodding his heads at the boys.

'Hey Cedric.' The boys replied in unison.

'Just wanted to say we missed you at the Quidditch World Cup - maybe if you were there nothing bad would've happened, you always do seem to stop bad things.' He said looking me straight in the eyes.

'Yeah I'm really sorry about that - Dad had a bad feeling about it.'

'Guess he was right... Anyway just wanted to say that and I'll see you in a bit!' And with that Cedric left.

We spent the whole train ride eating chocolate frogs and sharing new prank ideas. Hogwarts was going to be epic this year.
