"Finally the end of 6th year, an entire summer with out Potter and his crew bugging me." The redhead mumbled as she stepped off the Hogwarts Express.
It was hard to find her parents on the platform because of the large crowd but after a few minutes of scanning with her emerald eyes she spotted them waving enthusiastically. Lily raced over to hug them dragging the heavy trunk behind her. After skidding to a halt she reached out and hugged them.
"Mum, Dad I missed you so much." She said still hugging them tightly.
"Hello Lils how was school dear?" Mr. Evens asked ruffling his daughters' flaming hair affectinatly.
" It was great Dad but I'm ready to go home." Lily explained after releasing her parents.
"Well I'm afraid you'll have to wait a moment or two." Mrs. Evens said while staring out into the crowd.
"Why's that Mum?" Lily asked and followed her mothers gaze out into the sea of students.
" Two students are staying with us over the holidays by the request of your headmaster." Her mother replied still gazing into the crowd.
"I see them, JAMES, SIRIUS OVER HERE!" Lily's mother shouted over the incessant babble of children and their parents. Lily gave her parents a horrified look.
"Please don't tell me these are the James and Sirius as in the Marauders James and Sirius."
"Sorry to disappoint Lilyflower but Prongs and I are spending an entire summer in your presence." Sirius said as he came up behind Lily dragging his trunk.
"Hey Lils how about a kiss for your future husband?" James laughed running a hand through his hair as he walked up as well.
"When pigs fly!" Lily spat, eyes flaming like her hair. Mr. Evens moth twitched and his gaze hardened at this.
James smirked and replied " That can be arranged Flower."
Frustrated and fuming Lily stomped towards the parking lot to find her family's car with her fists clenched and a look in her eyes that could have killed. Lily's mother sighed this was going to be a long summer.
"I'll go after her its my turn. Honey can you stay with the boys for a few minutes so I can calm Lily down?"
"Of course." Her husband replied to Mrs. Evens retreating back.
"Lily honey wait." Mrs. Evens called after her raging daughter.
"Why should I you know I hate Pot- Head and Black, are you trying to kill me?" Lily snarled at her mother.
"Now Lily listen James's parents are away on business this summer and they couldn't find any where for the boys to stay so they asked Dumbledoor to find someone for the boys to stay with. He asked us and we accepted. Besides you wont see them much anyway, your all going to Aunt Kate's' ranch for the summer." Lily's eyes stopped flaming as she look at her mother.
"I'm going to see Caleb, Missy and Dancer again?"
" Yes dear but remember Caleb is still recovering from his bull riding accident so when you two race go easy on him."
Lily smiled and laughed "No way I'll finally be able to leave him and Dancer to eat my dust!" Lily's mother gave her a tender smile
" That's my girl. Now please get along with James and Sirius for Aunt Kate ok?"
"Fine Mum." She replied happy she was going to see her cousin again.
" Good, your father and the boys will be here soon enough I think he wanted to talk to James about that comment." Lily's mother said jokingly.

"James was that really called for?" Mr. Evens asked giving the messy haired boy a hard look.
"Ya Prongsy it really wasn't." Sirius taunted. "Shut up Padfoot." James snapped.
"Sirius, hush. Well James?" Mr. Evens asked again while tapping his foot impatiently on the cement.
"No sir it wasn't. I'm sorry." James replied hanging his head so that his glasses slipped down his nose.
" Look James don't apologize to me apologize to Lily. A word of advice saying things like that doesn't help your case."
"How do you…." James interrupted.
"Lily told us. Now listen both of you, you boys and Lily are going to the U.S to stay with Lily's Aunt and her son Caleb. No magic and no pranks ok." Both the boys nodded
"Good now lets go to our house for lunch your flight leaves tonight." Mr. Evens smiled at his wife from across the parking lot with Lily still glaring at James there only though was, poor Kate.
