Okies, so I started a new story and with this one I actually plan to go farther than chapter 1. Yes I know a HUGE accomplishment. Remember my kiddies…R&R!!

Chapter 1:

"She's somewhere in the sunlight, strong, her tears are in the falling rain. She calls me in the wind's soft song and with the flowers she comes again." (The Poet Sings)

"Lily, hurry up! You'll miss the train!"

I stared at my room for the last time until next summer. I wanted to remember every detail, the way it was. Tuney was sleeping, as usual.

"Bye Tuney…"

No answer

"Tuney? Aren't you going to miss me?"

"Why would I miss a freak like you, Witch?"

Ouch, that stung, but I had a feeling that this quarreling would not stop anytime soon.

"LILY!!"

"I'm coming, Dad!"

I ran down the stairs, nearly tripping myself, and out the door. Dad was waiting for in the car. I got in the car and Dad drove away. I watched as the houses of my neighborhood flew by. I was off to Hogwarts; a school of witchcraft and wizardry. I, Lily Evans, was going to learn magic! A world that existed within another one that we all wish could be real. I had seen it. I had been to Diagon Ally. Professor Dumbledore told me EVERYTHING. The houses of Hogwarts to the classes I would have and friends I would meet. He even told me that there's even a secret platform in between platform 9 and 10. This was the day that everything would change for me. No more having to take care of my father and my sister. I was not the Mom anymore.

Mom, what would you think of me now? Would you be proud of me, like Dad? Or pretend that I didn't exist like, 13 year-old Petunia? And all of the freaky kids on my street, like that Remus that was always sick. Adios! I won't be seeing you anymore! No more mourning aver my best friend that had moved away three years ago, it wouldn't matter anymore. I would make new friends.

But, I would miss Dad. As much as Dad had changed. I still loved him, Mom can leave him, destroy him. But I will still love him even more. It doesn't matter if he cries almost every night. Hoping. Praying. That maybe Mom is still alive. Maybe.

"Dad, I love you."

"I know, Lily"

"Dad"

"Yes?"

"Take care of yourself, Dad. Don't do anything stupid Dad."

"I won't"

"Promise me, Dad. Pinky promise me." I was crying now. "I don't have to go, Dad. Just say the word and I'll stay.

"Don't be silly, Honey. I'll be fine. Go, Have fun. He smiled but I saw through it. His eyes were watering, he was going to cry.

"Dad, I'm not going. I can't leave you."

"Lily," he was more collected now. "Enough, you're going."

We were at King's Cross station now. Dad got out and I followed. We got inside and I walked up to Platform 9 ¾.

"Remember the running start." Dad reminded me

"I know."

"Remember to write."

"I will."

It was five minutes to eleven now. I hugged my Dad.

"I have to go now, Dad." He had practically cut off my circulation

"Right, have fin Lils." He was actually crying now. If this had happened any old day I would have been embarrassed, but today I was crying too.

"Love you Dad. Bye." I couldn't take it. I ran through the wall and into Platform 9 ¾ a shining black train stood in front of me; embedded with the title The Hogwarts Express. Pushed my cart forward and on to the train. I found my own compartment, sat down and immediately started to read my all time favorite book, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. Books are my only friends.

"Hey move it!!"

"No, I was here first!!"

sigh I hate it when people disturb me when I'm reading, it's the worst thing that you can do to Lily Evans, especially now. I got up and opened the compartment door. There I stood face to face with my old best friend; James Potter

Author's Note:

Oh la la

Lily already knew James?! GASP!!

I really need feedback guys… is this story worth continuing or not…really I want criticism. Should I really start from the moment Lily goes to Hogwarts or skip to her say fifth or sixth year? R&R guys!!
