The soft black fabric slipped freely over Lily Evan's head and rested gently on her shoulders. Her arms stretched up and over her head as she slipped her hand under her brilliant red hair.

Slowly she pulled her hand back, slipping her hair out from under the black fabric.

Her hair cascaded off her hands and down her back. The shun shone warmly on her face as she moved towards the window in her dormitory.

She placed her hands on the cool stone window. She gazed out over the feilds of Hogqarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

She could see that the Gryffindor Quidditch team was praticing and she had no doubt that James was showing off. Lily thought that James was an ego centric freak but secretly she liked him. Nobody knew that she liked James.

Not even her best friend, Lizzy knew. Lily thought that Lizzy might have suspected something and if she did she was keeping quiet about it.

Lily watched as one of the Chasers put a goal through one of the hoops and then she turned away from the window and walked down to the Common Room.

She spotted Lizzy sitting in a squishy armchair next to the fire and Lily plopped down next to her, curling her feet up underneath her.

Lizzy looked up her dark brown hair drapped over her right blue eye. "Hey, there Lily." she said, cheerfully shutting the book she had been reading.

"Hey, Lizzy." replied Lily, smiling. Lizzy was always cheerful. She always had been. Ever since the two had first ment on the Hogwarts Express 7 years ago.

"So, you going down to the game today?" asked Lizzy. Lily had forgotten that there was a Qidditch game today. 'So they're getting in a quick practice. I see.' thought Lily.

"Yea. I suppose so. Only if you come with me though." said Lily. Lizzy laughed and nodded that she would accompany Lily to the game.
