Lily and James (The Untold Story)
Chapter 1
Lily's House
"Lily you are a freak!" yelled Petunia across the bedroom in which her and Lily shared. Lily had her own small corner with her bed and dresser. Now, usually Lily slept on the couch but today she was leaving for her sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witch Craft and Wizardry so she was in her corner packing up all of her things.
"Petunia just let it rest!" retorted Lily back at her sister knowing only after she said it that it was the wrong thing to say.
"Let it rest? Are you mental? I live with a mutant! Vernon won't speak with me cause he thinks that I am lying to him that you are a witch!" said Petunia then rambling on before she through a suitcase from under her bed at Lily's head, which missed.
"You told him? How could you? You are such a prat!" screamed Lily jumping at Petunia who was very skinny but had a very heavy hand. Her and Lily were on the floor pulling at each other's hair, slapping each other's faces and scratching with their fingernails until Petunia pinned Lily who was smaller than her and stood on her wrist in her stiletto boots. "Petunia, you're hurting me! You win, now, just get off, please!"
"Girls, what is going on up there?" Cody Evans said from the bottom of the stairs.
"Nothing, father." said Petunia putting all of her weight on Lily's stomach and getting herself up as she put pressure on Lily's wrist. She then spit on Lily's face before then walking over to look in the mirror and fix her makeup (that oddly resembled the clown that Lily was afraid of when she first when to the circus with her family) and her hair, now, don't even get Lily started on her hair. For that is another disaster all together.
"I hope you know that you are wasting your time," said Lily walking back over to her bed holding her arm and looking for the brass Petunia had put her in from just one month ago.
"And why would I be doing that?" asked Petunia in a cold voice but her eyes actually wanted to know why she would be wasting her time.
"Cause there is nothing to cover up that ugly face of yours. Your hair will never be puffy or long enough to cover up your long skinny vulture neck. And Vernon will always be as fat as our Christmas trees every year. There is no way to get around it. Bye." Lily finished with a smile and a wave as she ran out of the room and down the stairs dropping her trunk in front of the door and sitting down at the table.
"Oh, dear. What ever happened to your wrist?" Amanda Evans (Lily's mother as you can probably guess) said grabbing an ice pack out of the freezer and handing it to Lily.
"Petunia tripped me." Lily said telling only half of the truth.
"Petunia!" screamed Cody Evans up the stairs in a very fatherly voice. "PETUNIA!" He yelled again but this time in a 'get-your-ass-down-here-or-I-will-go-up-there' voice.
"Coming!" Petunia screamed putting on the last layer of blush to her already way to red cheekbones.
"I mean now!" Mr. Evans screamed before sitting down at the table next to Lily so he could look over her battle wounds once more.
As you can guess, Lily's family isn't that wealthy but they aren't poor either. They all don't always get what they want when they wanted. They usually don't get new clothes unless it was absolutely necessary. She had her small but very "lily" room.
James' House
"James, sweetie, you need to get up and get ready. Breakfast is on the table," came Acanthi Potter's voice from the other side of James' bedroom door.
"Okay mum, I'm up," said James rubbing his eyes from only getting 4 hours of sleep. He had been up finishing his homework late that night since he had forgotten to do it over the summer break. James as usual had put it off the whole break and was then reminded when Sirius gave him an owl asking what the answers were. So by then they were exchanging answers and trying to read four books that were assigned and writing the six foot long essays that went with them. But finally they had finished and James and Sirius needed to close their eyes and go into a dreamless sleep.
"You have half an hour until you need to be on that train dear, no hurry up. We can't stand to be late, again." With that Acanthi left her sons door and went down the stairs into the dinning hall where the rest of James' family was having breakfast already.
James has a very wealthy family and well he practically had everything he ever wanted. Their family was what they call "perfect in every way."
Rachel's House
"Rachel! Come on get your butt out of bed!" Rachel's dad screamed from kitchen.
"Dad! I'm already ready and I don't want your so called FOOD!" Rachel screamed putting the last of her contents into her trunk.
"Rachel! You need to eat something!" Her stepmother of about 2 days screamed from outside her door.
"Oh what the hell do you know I need?" Rachel snapped back opening the door and pushing her stepmother aside to get into the living room.
"Rachel! You better be nicer to you mother." Her father said waving a spatula in her face.
"My mother? She is not my mother! My mother is dead!" With that Rachel put her trunk in the fire and kissed her little twin brothers on the head and grabbed some floo power in her fist. "I'll see you this summer. Bye." Rachel left and was then on Platform Nine and Three Quarters.
Rachel's family was a little torn apart. Her father had gotten married three months after her mother's death and was not happy about it. She was made a brides maid and kind of tried to destroy the wedding with the help of Lily, James, Sirius, Remus, Katie, Caitlyn, and Peter.
Remus' House
"Mum! Come on I gotta get to the station!" Remus said from his parent's bedroom door. "I already made breakfast! Come on I am going to be late!"
"Okay. Bye baby." Mrs. Lupin's voice was heard very groggily because she had over slept as usual.
"Fine, bye." With that Remus when up to his spacious room for he was also wealthy like James and Sirius. He grabbed his trunk and went to the fireplace down the hallway. He grabbed the floo powder and left for Platform Nine and Three Quarters.
Katie's House
"This is really good breakfast mum." Katie said trying to get out of her grounding. For when her parents found out her little voyage about the wedding her and her friends tried to crash her parents were ecstatic. They grounded her for the whole year meaning school year and summer. She was screwed unless she could get out of it as usual.
"Don't try to get out of this one Katie. We are not falling for that old suck up act again." Her father said walking into the room and kissing his children on the heads. There was Mark, who was the oldest and was nineteen but not out of the house yet, then there was Katie who was almost sixteen then Andrew who was five and Casey who was 3 months old.
"Okay Katie, on with you know. We have to get to the station before it leaves." Mrs. Lovett said before picking up Katie's plate and putting it in the sink. They then made their way to the fireplace.
"Bye Mark, Casey, Andrew, Daddy. See you this summer." Katie said before saying, "Platform Nine and Three Quarters."
Sirius' House
"Sirius! Change my hair back now!" Came Sybel's voice from the bathroom.
"Oh, shit!" Sirius said running from the door so that his twin sister wouldn't kick his arse like she did three nights ago for putting live Egyptian spiders in her bed.
"Sirius I am not kidding! Fix my hair!" Sybil walked out of the bathroom with rainbow coloured hair in a fro style.
"That looks rather sexy on you Sy." Sirius said from the Kitchen door.
"Mum! Make him change my hair back, now!" Sybil said walking into the kitchen. When she passed the threshold her parents couldn't help but laugh. Their daughter had always had the neat hair and the flawless face. Well, their family was practically flawless unless you were Sybil and thought that your life was perfect except for the small glib that was Sirius.
Caitlyn's House
"Mum! Where are my socks? I just cleaned them last night and now they are gone!" Caitlyn said walking all the way around their house trying to find her runaway socks.
"Have you looked in you trunk, dear? I am pretty sure that you put them in there last night when you packed it." Her mother's voice was heard from her bathroom, as she got ready to take her daughter to Platform Nine and Three Quarters.
"No! I will meet you in the fire room so we can go!" Caitlyn said before sweeping into her bedroom to check her trunk.
"Okay sweetie."
Peter's House
"Shit!" Peter screamed as he woke up to look at his clock. It was o'clock; he had 10 minutes to get ready to leave for school. "Mum! You were supposed to wake me up and hour ago!" He screamed down the hall.
"No I wasn't!" Came Mrs. Pettigrew's voice from her bedroom.
"Uh, yeah, you were!" Peter screamed looking into her bedroom to see that she was still in bed as he lifted his shirt over his head.
"Oh well, your up now. Bye Dear." She said without looking up from her double cross-stitch.
"Bye Mum! Love you." Peter said before grabbing a hand full of floo powder and screaming into the fire
"Ah ha" Was his mother's reply.
Peter than grabbed the floo powder and stepped into the fire and screamed, "Platform Nine and Three Quarters!"
Boarding The Train
As Lily boarded the Hogwarts Express she immediately turned around for she heard a very familiar voice call her name. She then searched the crowd for her best friend, James Potter. She couldn't find him anywhere.
"James? James, was that you?" But all she felt was a nudge on her shoulder. "What the?" Lily said under her breath and then remembering the past events of knowing The Marauders plans (a young group of pranksters from The Gryffindor House). "Damn him." Lily ended before getting dragged into an empty compartment by thin air, if that was even possible. And trust me when you were friends with the Marauders it WAS possible.
"Lil, I've been looking all over for you. Where have you been?" James asked a little out of breath.
"I was indisposed, sorry," Lily, said pulling down her sleeves so that James couldn't see the wrist brace Petunia had put her in before she left the house.
"Okay, well we better find the gang before the train starts to leave and we get stuck sitting with Malfoy and Snape." James said pulling Lily onto the train and down the walkway looking into every compartment as they past.
"Hey, yo, James, Lily! Over here!" Sirius screamed from the last compartment. Once they made their way inside they found out that it was full. They both just stood there talking to Sirius until he had a kink in his neck. "Hey, Remus, Caitlyn, Rachel, come with me to go and get something to drink, would ya?"
"Yeah, sure." Caitlyn said while grabbing Rachel's hand and dragging her out of the compartment after Remus and Sirius.
"Well, four down and five to go." Lily whispered to James as they sat down in Sirius and Caitlyn's seats. After about thirty minutes they finally figured the Remus, Sirius and the girls weren't going to be coming back any time soon.
Flashback (Lily)
It was the first time Lily would ever board the Hogwarts Express, BUT not the last. She was trying to pull her over stuffed trunk onto the train when a very devilish boy (none other then Lucius Malfoy himself) tripped her and made her drop her trunk on a very handsome boy that was talking to his friends.
"Hey, what the hell was that for?" James said as he slapped his mouth when he suddenly saw his mum only a couple of steps away look at him sternly.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to hit you." Lily said as she picked up her trunk and tried to make a quick exit.
"Wait! Here, let me help you." James said as he picked up the other side Lily's trunk and helped her carry it into the closest empty compartment. "There ya go."
"Thanks. And once again I am really sorry about hitting you." Lily said blushing a little as she saw him rubbing his head.
"Oh, no. That's okay. I needed a little sense knocked into me." James said finally getting Lily to laugh. "Well, I guess I'll see ya later then." James said walking back out of the compartment to join his friends outside.
End of flashback
"Hello, Earth to Lily." James said while waving a hand in front of Lily's face.
"What." Lily said starting to laugh at James' face, which oddly resembled that of a person that just ate way to many sour war heads (muggle candy Lily brought with her every year).
"Have you even noticed that everyone has ditched us?" James said pointing to all of the empty seats in the compartment. Lily just sat there biting her lip as if was scared to be in a room alone with James Potter.
"God, I'm tiered." Lily said as she went to the opposite side and stretched her body out on the row of seats and fell asleep.
An Hour And A Half Later
"Ahhh!" Lily screamed as she was rudely awakened by a sudden jolt of the train. James who was also sleeping jumped up with alarm. "James, what was that?" Lily asked looking from the door then to the window in suspicion.
"Probably nothing big." James said in a reassuring voice. But he was soon corrected by a voice coming from an intercom that had obviously just appeared.
"I am sorry to inform you all that we are having some minor difficulties. It appears that our train is beyond magic's repair. If you will all please stay calm it will help us all a lot. The..." but before the voice could finish the power went out.
"Jaaammess!" Lily screamed jumping into James' arms as if she were only five or six years old.
"Lily, it's fine. Its only a power outage." James said as he slid Lily off his lap (but reluctantly cause he quite liked the position that they were in) and looked for his wand. When he found it he said 'Lumos' and went to stand by Lily who obviously didn't like the fact of being on a train, in the dark, in the middle of nowhere.
"James?" Lily said looking up into his stunning deep blue eyes.
"Yeah, Lils." James said taking a seat next to her.
"I'm scared."
"Why?"
"I don't know." Lily said with an expression of fear and confusion.
"Come here." James said putting an arm around and pulling her into a warm hug then kissing her on the forehead in a sign of comfort.
Flashback (James)
James was standing on Platform Nine and Three Quarters talking with his friends after coming from helping a very beautiful girl with her trunk. James was talking to his friends when the train's whistle blew for them to get on or get left behind. They grabbed their trunks and for the train. When they were on they found that there was nowhere to sit on the train at all. So with James wonderful brain they went to lily's compartment hoping that it wouldn't be full.
Knock, Knock, Knock
"Come in." Came the voice that James was pleased to hear.
"Hey, umm, I was, we were wondering if it was okay that we joined you?" James said tripping over his own words.
"I don't mind." Lily said pointing to the empty seats all around her.
"Okay, thanx babe (which he calls her often nowadays)." Sirius said as he sat down opposite of her.
End of flashback
When James finally snapped out of his trans he noticed that Lily was asleep on his shoulder. After about fifteen minutes he as well started to fall asleep so he used the enlarging charm to enlarge the cabins seat so that he didn't have to move Lily from her position. He then outstretched his body and laid down on the row of seats and slept. Just like Lily.
10 Minutes Later
"Come on you guys, it is just Lily and James, they wouldn't do anything." came Caitlyn's voice from outside the door.
"It is offal quiet for them, usually they are joined at the hip and you know being friends. What is up with them?" Rachel's voice followed behind Caitlyn's.
"Can we just go in now, my legs are killing Me." said Sirius in more of an order than a question, like usual. He then pushed between the girls and opened the door. "No fear the dog is in the house."
"Yeah, literally." Caitlyn said looking at her nails and walking into the compartment.
"Hush ...you will wake up the little angels." Sirius said in a mocking voice of a caring mother.
"What are you talking about?" Caitlyn said looking up at him with a questioning look then following his gaze to Lily and James. They were lying next to each other. Lily had her head on his chest and James' arms wrapped around her in a protective way.
"Umm ...maybe we should leave." Caitlyn said grabbing at Sirius sleeve, in which he then conjured up a camera and took a couple pictures with everyone laughing behind him.
"You guys need to be quiet, you'll wake them up and they will kill us." Sirius said from behind the camera.
"Correction numb nuts, they will kill you, for you are the one taking the pictures." Caitlyn shot back at him in a flirtatious voice. Everyone once more broke off into laughter from Caitlyn's comment but quickly shut up as James rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand. But once more they all began to laugh as they closed the door and Sirius snapped a few more pictures.
"Right when we get to school I want to see those pictures." Remus said from behind the crowd of people walking down the Hogwarts Express walk way. They soon found an empty compartment, or I should say they "got" and empty compartment that was once full of the new first year students. When they sat down they started to talk about Lily and James, if they are good for each other and well, so on.
