A.N. Hello, this is my first Harry potter fanfic and I hope you like it! Nymphie is named after Nymphadora Lupin (Tonks)
I will try to update regularly but I have lots and lots and lots of homework at the moment... :( hattibella x
Lily Potter got onto the Hogwarts Express with no spring in her step as her two older brothers had. Instead with an apprehensive look over her shoulderat her short dumpy granny, Mrs. Weasley. Mrs. Weasley didn't help Lily's nerves. She was deep in conversation wiyh her equally frizzy haired daughter-in-law Hermione.
Harry and Ginny were away on an auror trip that was planned to last a year. James, Albus, Lily and two yearold Nymphie were placed in their Grannys care for this time. James, Albus and Nymphie and loved the change, laden them with food and the 'do whatever you want attitude' was a lovely change from their usually rule bound life in Godrics Hollow. Lily found the change harder, tears engulfed her each night as she imagined the horrific duels her Mother and Father may have to face on their mission despite many reassurances that this wasn't going to happen.
With all this running through her head, Lily cautiously walked down the train. Hoping that there might be a compartment with a welcoming face in or, even better, an empty compartment where she could wallow in her own sadness feeling alone and sorry for herself. James and Albus had run ahead frantic to find their friends.
Lily peeked her head around the door of the last compartment and it was full. Tears threatened to break through the high wall Lily had precariously built around herself this summer. When suddenly a familiar voice called 'Lils, do you want to sit in my compartment, its full of Seventh years but you look pretty lost' Relief flooded Lily, she whirled around, Ginger hair flying out behind her, and there was the wide beaming smile of Teddy Lupin. His electric blue hair stuck out in all directions as he pulled Lily into a tight bearhug.
He started to walk down the train corridor, Lily hurrying to keep up with him as he turned around and slid open the door into what looked like the entire Seventh year Griffindors. A mixture of faces, blue eyes, brown messed up hair, wonky noses and an array of freckles turned towards her each face showing the same amount of astonishment at the small girl standing next to Teddy. 'This is Lily Potter' he gruffly said, his hair turning pink in embarrassment, 'She's practically my little sister and doesn't know anyone' his hair turning pinker by the minute nearly matching Lilys beetroot red face. A tall girl with brown curly haywire patted the seat next to her, gesturing for her to sit down.
So just like that Lilys Hogwarts adventure had begun.
