This is my wedding present for Lily Evans (soon to be Potter) and James Potter. I being Sirius Black, best friend of the aforementioned James Potter and best man at the wedding of the two people mentioned above. This is a book of firsts. It will include the first time anything happened between the people mentioned above told by… the one and only ME, Sirius Black! I got this idea from Lily when she made me watch that stupid Muggle movie, what was? Oh yes, The Notebook. So dearest Lilykins and Jamsie poo, here is your notebook for when you grow so old you cannot remember each other and need a book to remind you. So here is the first story in the book of firsts:

First Encounters with Wizard-Kind

Really, it's because of me that Lily and James had the relationship that they did. If it wasn't for me, who knows what would have happened. On the my first day of Hogwarts, my dear, sweet mother said that we would have to leave early for Platform 9 ¾ because she wanted to avoid all the Mudbloods that would inevitably come late. Well, she had never met the Evanses.

Mr. and Mrs. Evans were worried about being late and not finding the train so they arrived at the same time the members of my family and I arrived.

"Honestly, why must they place Platform 9 ¾ in a Muggle place. I hate navigating through all these people!" my mother was complaining.

Lily did not know how to reach the platform. (Why do they never tell the poor Muggle-borns how to get on the platform? It's crazy!) So when she heard my mother talking about Muggles she was relived. Another wizard! Her relief was short-lived.

The Evanses walked up to us.

"Excuse me, do you know how to get onto Platform 9 ¾?" Mrs. Evans asked Mother.

My mother stared at her, Lily and Mr. Evans.

"Are you Muggles?" she enquired raising an eyebrow.

"Well, Sophie and I are," Mr. Evans said, "But our Lily is a witch," he beamed.

I winced. Muggles and Muggle-borns. There was only one thing my mother -Why do I keep calling her my mother? She's not, she disowned me! - hated more than Muggles were Muggle-borns.

"How sweet," she said with a poisonous smile. "A little Mudblood."

Mr. Evans frowned. Apparently he was smart enough to realize, either from Mrs. Black's tone or the word that it wasn't too friendly.

I frowned too. I didn't, and don't, agree with my mother's Purebloods are better than anyone and Mudbloods aren't fit to wipe the slime off of our boots philosophy. I pitied this poor family but was too nervous to do anything.

"Mudbloods aren't appreciated at Hogwarts. If you know what's good for you you'll go home and stay there. Purebloods always to better than them, there's no competition at all. The Purebloods also rule the school and they hate little- "

"Ophelia, how lovely to see you." I looked up and saw the Potter family. The Blacks had always hated the blood-traitor family. I barely smothered a grin. If anyone could help this poor Muggle family and annoy my mother to no end, it was Richard and Bonnie Potter. I also noticed a boy about my age standing with them, their son, James.

"Bonnie." Mrs. Black acknowledged.

"How nice to see you here." Mr. Potter said as civilly as he could mange.

"Our son, Sirius, is starting this year."

"Are you starting too?" James asked Lily who was standing with her family and was trying to inconspicuously sidle away.

"You mean at Hogwarts?" Lily asked nervously.

"Yeah."

"She was. She isn't anymore." Mr. Evans said.

"What do you mean?" Mrs. Potter asked.

"I won't have my daughter go to a school where she is picked on, where everyone will try to make her life a living hell, and where she will be miserable."

"What are you talking about?" Mr. Potter asked. I think, though, he knew quite well what Mr. Evans was talking about since he and Mrs. Potter had interrupted my mother's tirade.

"I believe he is talking about Ophelia's opinions." Mrs. Potter said.

"We need to go," my mother stated. "Bonnie. Richard."

"Ophelia."

Well since obviously I left along with my "family" I didn't know what happened until James fell in love with Miss Lily Evans and related over and over anything she ever said to him that didn't involve yelling and I got the whole story.

Mr. and Mrs. Potter explained to Mr. and Mrs. Evans and Lily about the Blacks and how they were Pureblood maniacs and there were plenty of nice people at Hogwarts and Lily would be very happy there. Finally her parents let her go.

"Muggles, even one that have a magical child aren't permitted on the platform." Mrs. Potter explained. "However, we would be glad to take Lily with us."

"Yeah," James said. "I'm a first year too, and I'd be happy to have someone to sit with on the train."

"Thanks," Lily said flashing him a small grin.

"No problem."

Lily hugged her parents good-bye and followed the Potters through the barrier. I watched them come through the barrier while I was getting long lecture about how I was to be a good Slytherin and not under any circumstances do what the Potters had just done to Lily. (Helped a Muggle-born.) However, I watched the 'Potter boy' help Lily with her trunk and marked the compartment they went into. I wanted to apologize.

After my mother found me a compartment with the most evil Slytherins in the world and the train began to move I said that I needed a drink of water and left to go find Lily to say sorry.

I found her compartment quickly and paused outside, listening to her conversation with the Potter kid. Crap, I thought. I can't remember his name.

"I'm nervous about going to Hogwarts. I don't know any magic and I've never had any experience with it." That was Lily.

"Don't worry. A ton of people come from Muggle homes and they do fine."

"Really?"

I decided to make my entrance. I knocked and opened the door. Lily shrank back and the Potter stood up and glared at me.

"What do you want?"

"I just, um," Potter was very intimidating.

"If you've come to make Lily feel worthless like your family did, then leave this instant."

"No, I don't want to do that." Lily let out a disbelieving snort. "I wanted to apologize. I'm sorry about my mother."

James stared at me for a few seconds. "Yeah and my grandfather was secretly Grindlwad."

James, yes, that was his name.

"No, really, I'm sorry."

Lily was looking at me oddly.

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Well, all right then. Apology accepted."

"What did you just say?" James whirled around and stared at her. "You can't accept his apology."

"Why not?" Lily asked coolly.

"He's a Black! They would never apologize to anyone, least of all a Muggleborn."

"Then what would be his motive? He certainly didn't add to his mother's insults, no one made him come here, did they?" She looked at me.

I shook my head. "I really am sorry. My mother's crazy."

James frowned at Lily. "You can't forgive him. He is a Black."

"It's just a name. It doesn't mean anything."

"It means that he'll be in Slytherin. The Blacks have been in Slytherin for ages."

"And has every single Slytherin been totally evil?"

"Well, no."

"So he might not be." Lily said. "Thank you for apologizing um,"

"Sirius," I supplied.

"Sirius. Well good-bye. See you at Hogwarts." Lily began to leave the compartment.

"Where are you going?" James asked her.

"To get some water." Lily never returned. She found a compartment with a bunch of girls; I got found by an evil Slytherin and endured a miserable ride with them, and James wandered the train until he found a compartment with two boys named Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew in it.

So within twenty to thirty minutes of meeting James, Lily disliked him, a dislike that would last around six years.
