You are about to be submerged into the life of Lily Evans; A girl who keeps having these awful nightmares. Who is the hazel eyed dream boy who keeps saving her? And why is James Potter covered in pie?
Part 1 ahhh Christmas peace, happiness, joy, lov -- POTTER!
I was running through the woods panting heavily, faster! Faster!! I told myself, as whoever was chasing me got nearer and nearer. The forest was menacing, and I could not see.
Ouch! I fell, hard on the gravelly ground. I was not bothered by this; it was the fact that something was still chasing me.
"HELP" I yelled trying to get up
Suddenly someone grabbed me and pulled me behind a huge rock. Whatever it was thudded past right wear I had been 2 seconds before. I looked up the see who had saved me and saw his eyes, there were hazel, with light gold speckles across them, they where full of love, happiness, but also full of grief. He looked sad almost desperate.
I sat up; startled by the dream, it had been so real! Shaking I turned over and tried to get back to sleep. But no, naturally I couldn't, something about the boy's eye was keeping me up and I was not sure I liked it.

6:00am Christmas morning, 7th year, girl's dorm Gryffindor common room.
"LILY" a voice called in my ear.
"Go away" I yelled spinning around on the bed, I was so exhausted for staying up since one, that morning
"But Lily" Alice called "Its Christmas! You can't sleep on Christmas, didn't you know?"
"arrrrrggg" I groaned sitting up. I had utterly forgotten.
"Happy Christmas to you to" said Marlene from across the room laughing. I threw my pillow at her.
After all the presents had been opened and wrapping paper was everywhere, naturally this meant "PAPER FIGHT" or as Marlene put it (she is kind of crazy) we finally we decided to get dressed, and head down to the great hall.

5:00pm Christmas evening entrance hall
"Why hello Evans how nice to see you" I whirled around, it was that stupid Potter! James Potter to be exact but I just call him Potter, he calls me Evans. Which I don't like much it makes me think that I am really related to HER, my sister. We are not talking at the moment, because of an argument about Vernon, her boy friend. This is why I was here and not at home for Christmas. Well that and the fact I am head girl.
"Go away!" This was usually how I reacted to him coming near me. He drives me crazy; he has this mad obsession with me. I have no idea why, as far as I am concerned I am short, with way to much carrot hair (that's what SHE calls It. come to think of it I have never had a argument with her this long maybe I should apologize… maybe) I am not at all pretty, and to top it all off my feet are really tiny like 6 1/2.
"Evan haven't you noticed that, that is what you say every time I open my mouth." Hum, he is more observant that I thought
"Yes, of course I have." Well not until yesterday, when Alice pointed it out.
"Oh just thought you would have thought of something else by now, I mean come on you are the smartest girl in the year, yet you only ever say 3 synonymous to me." I blinked, he was right. Was I losing my touch?! Oh no!!
"Lily" I looked around, the marauders (or so they call themselves, Potter, Black, (Sirius as his friends call him) and Lupin, (Remus). Oh and Peter Pettigrew, I still can't figure out why he is part of the group, or Remus for that matter, he is nice, why do they hang out with Potter and Black?) Had gone.
"Sorry zoned out" Which was completely true, so why where they giving me weird glances?
"Come on" I followed Mary, Marlene and Alice into the great hall.

5:27pm Christmas evening, great hall
Ah, Christmas diner at Hogwarts one of the seven wonder of the world. As I piled turkey and potatoes on to my plate I heard numerous conversations around me all mixed together. Kind of like when you are 3 and you break into the spice cabinet and pull everything out. Then fill a bowl with water, and pour everything in. yeah like that.
"Dumbledore did you hear that the minister is going to put a band on the troll…" McGonagall was saying
"OMG HE GOT YOU THAT! Stupid Drew got me a can opener; I am dumping him after the holidays." I laughed. Drew was in Hufflepuff, Sara had been dating him, a Ravenclaw. I pity her, but then she was stupid enough to say yes, when he asked her out. I wonder… she is in Ravenclaw, they are suppose to have brains.
"Lily." The voice startled me, gravy spilled down the table soaking everyone.
"Sorry" I said, I hated being the center oh attention. Everyone was looking at me. I whispered the cleaning spell and, was spotless again, along with the table and everyone else.
"Who said that?" I asked Alice who was sitting next to me
"Said what?"
"Said my name?"
"I don't know, I didn't hear anything"
I was probably just my amazing imagination playing tricks on me again, I thought. Or maybe I was just mad, just like Marlene had said when I had yelled at the wall thinking it was a person, but that was last year so maybe I am no longer mad this year! Than makes perfect sense right?
BANG!
CRASH!
Whoosh!
screaming
"eeeek!" heehee whenever I hear that I think of an old lady on a chair yelling at a mouse. Like in thoughts old cartoons. Oh hold on I haft to yell at Potter.
"POTTER" I yelled, they had done it again. Who in there right minds would set of 27 magical fire crackers in the middle of Christmas dinner. Yes there where 27, I counted
"IT WASN'T ME!" he yelled, ha like I was going to believe that.
"Oh then, who was it." I was infuriated, he was such a fat liar!
"Sirius did it!"
"Really, it was not your idea at all?" I said the sarcasm bubbling over.
Never one without the other. If James did something Sirius who have been involved. And if Sirius did something James would have been involved. So I had trouble believing he was not involved at all.
"Really I swear!" He said, looking upset and a little angry.
"Sorry I don't believe you Potter."
"Come on Lily, just give him a change." Mary said
"No, I know he did it." I could totally tell bye his face. Gilt mixed with a touch of depression, at being caught. I hope he gets detention for a month with McGonagall, she had the worst detentions, once she made him clean all the bathroom girl and boys with out magic.
"Lady's and gentleman please calm down no one was hurt so no harm done." Dumbledore had joined the conversation, or ended it "please all head back up to your dorms or out in the lovely snow and have fun there shall not be fighting on Christmas."

7:48pm Christmas evening, 7th year, girl's dorm Gryffindor common room.
I was mad. Not at the fact that I was soaking wet or the fact it was Potter fault that I was wet, nor the fact that Black and Lupin were laughing. It was that fact that Potter had tried to act as though he was sorry. And I know he was not.
We had just gone outside the great hall when Black asked us if we wanted to have a snowball fight. I didn't want to, not that it wouldn't have been fun. But Potter was going to play. Marlene on the other hand, had a huge crush on Black said we would go and Mary and Alice said it would be fun, so I when with them.
It was fun at first but then HE hit me with a huge snowball. Right on the back if the head, witch caused me to fall face first into the soft powdery snow. Oh but he said,
"It was an accident! Sorry!!" Oh god he was not, he totally did it on purpose. I wish he would die.
So now I am upstairs in the dorm, taking a shower thinking about ludicrous way to kill him, dropping him through Jupiter sounds good, see if he comes out the other end. I mean it is a gas planet so he should. However there is that no gravity problem.
"Lily, he didn't do it one purpose! He swore he didn't" like Alice knew anything!
"We were all getting hit! It's not that big of a deal!" Marlene too, they have no idea! It hit me in the back of the head!
"Your being stupid just come out!"
"NO" I called back to Mary; they can be really annoying sometimes.
"Lily"
"WHAT!!" I was really mad now
"We didn't say anything!" Mary called sounding hurt, I guess I should be sorry.
Ok it final I am going mad really I am, I dream about random stuff and hear people calling my name that aren't there. Ya I am going insane.
--
I was cold and snow was falling around me OUCH something hard hit me and my head killed. The snow was now spinning faster I could not see! It was cold so cold. My lips felt like they where dieing!
"HELP" I yelled
Suddenly I saw something coming near me
"HELP!"
I called out again, I fell and icy something hit me, hard in the head. I could not see!
Someone pulled me to my feet and saw he had the same eyes as in the forest. Hazel eyes. He spoke and said "I'm sorry!" His voice was far away and rather distant. I did not know whose voice it was, it sounded oddly familiar. and I loved it.

10:58am day after Christmas, morning, 7th year, girl's dorm Gryffindor common room.
"Lily" Oh no! There it is again the voice that is not really there, and in a minute I am going to say what? And no one in going to answer because no one is there!
Lily get up!!" Oh it's only Marlene.
"GO AWAY" This is how I started every morning
"UP, UP, UP, UP, UP, UP, UP, UP!!" I hate her.
"Okay I'm getting up." Wait why was I getting up we are still on break!
"Hold it wait! No I am not getting up there is not reason to." I could see through my closed eyes that they where all looking at me like I was mad. Lily its 11:00 and it is time to get UP!"
"Why!!"
"Because today we are going to pig out in the kitchen!" Mary said
"We don't know where the kitchen is" which is totally true.
"NO you don't know where it is we do." At this I sat up
"Really?" I was shocked "how did you find out?"
"Black." Of course Marlene was obsessed with Black, as she has always been, but she won't admit it. She loves him but every time he asks her out she said no. I think it is because I don't like Potter so she feels that if she likes him we would be breaking a wonderful relationship. But I could careless it she went out with Black. I just want her to be happy, but Black is such a……..
"Lily? Are you still with us?"
"Hmm? Oh sorry, lost in thought." I do that a lot now a days "okay about the kitchen..."
"Ya Marlene got it out of him." Mary supplied
"Why? How, and when?"
"Because I was hungry, and we missed breakfast."
"How? By flirting." Mary whispered
"And when, you were still asleep." Marlene finished pretending that she had not heard Mary's comment.
"Okay I'm hungry too lets go!" I yelled jumping out of bed.

11:29am day after Christmas, morning, kitchens
"So Marlene what do you dream about?" Random conversation, don't ask, it started when Alice said she had a weird dream, then Mary told us about her weird dream, and so on. We where all down in the kitchens, eating toast, eggs, Bacon and waffles.
"Well..." Marlene began hesitantly. "I have a dream about getting a necklace from my brother…. And then OMG it happened!" we all stared at her; it was true her brother had gotten her a necklace for Christmas.
"That is so cool! That happened to me once to. It was like weird." Mary said "it was a dream about going to Hogsmead and getting butterbear spilled all over me! And it happened remember."
"I remember that." I said laughing, no one would ever forget that day.
"What about you Lily?" Alice asked "what do you dream about." Now was the debate. Should I tell them about my dreams, or should I not? If I did they would say that I was crazy. But if I didn't tell someone I think I will go crazy.
"Okay" I began "I dream about……"
Several minutes later…..
"Lily!" Marlene screamed "I know what the dream means!"
"What!" I was dieing to know.
"Okay every time a boy with hazel eyes saves you right!"
"Yeah" What was this about?
"Well then you are going to fall in love with someone who has hazel eyes. It makes sense!"
"Ya it does" Mary said thoughtfully./
"Well" I began, it did make sense. "I guess, but who has hazel eyes?"
"We will just keep your eyes open for someone who has hazel eyes."
