The Secret Life Of Lily Evans

Disclaimer: I do not own any characters from the Harry Potter series, though sometimes I wish to, for I get many ideas for the writings.

Authors Note: Hi everyone! I really love the L/J Fics, so I guess I'm going to write one. Hopefully it won't get too fluffy on me.

Summary: Lily Evans seems like she has a Happy life. Loving Parents, good grades, friends. But deep down she doesn't. What happens in her home? Why does she crave to be inside Hogwarts? James Potter wants to find out!

*~*~*

                    Lily Evans, a sixteen-year-old girl, who was petite with flaming red hair, and bright green eyes, sat shrunk against a wall, too frightened to move. Her father, David Evans, prowled around her house, drunk with a large sized kitchen knife in hand, looking around.

                    'Is this how it's to end?' Lily thought to herself as she saw her fathers shadow pass the closet door she was hiding in.  She thought he was gone, but suddenly the door flew open, her dad's small beady eyes bore into hers as he reached in to grab onto her small pale hand.

                    "Get out here you freak," he snarled menacingly.

                    Lily tried to crawl back away from her father, but her father grabbed onto her arm, Lily wincing in pain of his tight grasp, tried to struggle away; what set her father off into this kind of rage, she didn't know.

                    Her father, still swearing, and carrying the large knife, dragged Lily into the living room, where he threw her onto the couch, and then he pointed to a letter that was on the coffee table.

                    "Look at that!" He snarled. "Are you that big of a whore, that you have boys writing to you? Your just like your mother!"

                    Lily looked at the letter, and saw that it was Amos Diggory that had wrote to her, congratulating her on being picked as Gryffindor Prefect. Lily didn't try to explain, for she knew that there were no excuses that her father would take, and she didn't want to get him angry.

                    "Well?" He yelled, his face turning a deep red color.

                    "It's just a friend…Daddy, he's a prefect too, he was just congratulating me…"

                    But David didn't listen as he swung back his hand, and hit Lily in the face as hard as he could, making Lily shrink backwards more, and wince in pain, and fear as he hit her more.

                    'Oh god, let someone come, please…'

                    Lily couldn't hear that someone was coming through the door, until she heard a loud gasp from the hallway.

                    "David No!" Lily's mother, Dayna shrieked, throwing herself onto her Husbands back.

                    David just threw Lily's mother off of him, and he yelled: "She's a slut, just like you! She has to pay for it! She won't be going back to that school!"

                    Dayna tried to shield Lily from her husbands view, but David raised the long knife, and stabbed her mother, her mother fell to her knees in front of Lily.

                    Lily looked in shock at her mother, who had blood dribbling from her mouth; "Run, Lily…Go…" her mother whispered before she fell onto her stomach, not moving.

                    Lily stood up, looking at her mother in shock for a moment more, before she started to run up the stairs, seeing her father wipe off the blood from the knife, onto her mothers once perfect blouse.

                    She ran as fast as she could into her mother and fathers room, looking in their drawers trying to find the small handgun kept for protection.

                    Finally her fingers grasped the smooth metal piece as her dad burst into the room, she held the gun at her father, and clicked the hammer.

                    "Lily you put that goddamned gun down, before I hurt you!"

                    "No."

                    "I won't have you back there."   Her father stepped forward and she pulled the trigger four times.

*~One Week Later~*

                    Lily Evans had killed a man. Not only was he a family member, but her father.  She stood alone, looking down at her mothers newly formed Grave, her black dress swishing about her in the breeze.  She knew she did what she had to do, but she still felt guilty.  She didn't know if she was going back to the school. But her mother had protected her, she must go back for her family.

                    "Thanks to you, you freak," Petunia had snarled. "We have no parents."

                    "No," Lily had retorted back with tears in her eyes. "We have no parents because of a murderer of a father, who was addicted to drugs."

                    The police had filed the case as self-defense but Lily still felt that it was her fault. Everything was her fault.

                    Tomorrow was the day she'd go back to school on The Hogwarts Express.

                    She knew she wouldn't be able to face The Marauders. Expecially that James Potter.

                    'I won't put up with anything they pull, I'll show them what being an Evans is… I was always told I was like my mother, brave and witty to the end. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.'
