James was happy to be heading home, even though he could tell his house would be a full one this time around. He didn't mind of course, at least he was spending the holiday with everyone he loved. He wrapped his arms around Lily as she shivered and playfully nuzzled his nose in her red locks. "I'll keep you warm" He whispered softly in her ear looking out the window for just a moment.<br/><br/>He enjoyed the snow, it was always fun to pack snowballs and throw them at the Slytherins, but he also loved just being home with his family. He noticed that nervous expression on Lily's face and he squeezed her tightly in a hug. "Don't worry about my parents. They'll love you" He said with a nod before he would look to Sirius who continued to rave about his parents and he laughed softly.<br/><br/>"Yup, mum always has soup waiting for us." He said honestly. It was almost a family tradition it seemed to enjoy the cup of soup and then talk before having some cocoa. He smirked seeing how excited Sirius was about the whole trip and he laughed hysterically seeing those cards explode again.<br/><br/>"Maybe you should've been paying more attention to your cards Pads instead of sharing your cocoa desires with everyone."He said with a chuckle before he would stood and he took Lily's hand with a smile.<br/><br/>It seemed like the train ride had passed Riley by considering the girl had slept almost the whole way to the Kings Cross Station. Since they had mid terms right before the Christmas break, she barely slept a wink. She breathed lightly, her head resting on the seat since Sirius was on the floor and slowly her eyes opened when she felt the train coming to a halt. The main reason why she had felt asleep was due to the fact that she didn't want to get her nerves all worked up. But also, she had been exhausted in the first place and she didn't want to be crabby when she met James parents.<br/><br/>A smile came to her lips when she heard Sirius talking about cocoa and more cocoa and her eyes widened when those cards would explode. She sat up slowly, her fingers playfully pulling some card pieces out of Sirius' black locks and she giggled softly. "You're a mess" She said with a wink before she would stand and put on her winter coat and gloves.
