A/n: Okay so here I was trying to be a good girl and do my study for those pesky exams that will start in exactly one week *que horror music* When this story came up to me and smacked me across the face and demanded to be written. Well... who am I to deny a the fan fiction fates? Just don't tell ;) Enjoy.

Chapter 1 - Fear

'Well I guess it's time to find out'. Lily says to herself as she stared in the mirror. She sighs and speaks in a voice barely above a whisper "Come on, wheres that Gryffindor bravery?" Ha! We all know where that is and it is not here! The pale faced girl that stood in the mirror wore a face of shock mirroring the girl it was reflecting.

Who would have thought it? Lily Evans afraid to go downstairs in her own house.

Today was the day Lily would get her letter from Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry stating a list of this she would need for her 7th and final year ands maybe saying that she would be head girl. Maybe.

You see everyone, including her friends, had spent the last few days of 6th year saying how they would beteverything they had that she would be Head Girl. They were certain but Lily was not so sure.

I have to be Head Girl. I ha-

"Freak! Will you get out of the bathroom already?" Lily's thoughts were interrupted by shrill voice of Petunia Evans and the thunderous noise of her banging her bony hand against the thin wooden door.

As she heard this a flash of pain went through Lily's face so quickly that no one except her would ever know it was there. Only she knew the truth of how much it still hurt her how bad things were with her big sister. Lily walked to the door and sighed as she opened it with a little more force then necessary and stared straight at her sister.

"What is it Tuney? What do you want? She said in an exasperated voice that matched how she felt about the relationship with her sister.

Petunia glared at her sister. Lily knew why, Petunia hated when Lily called her Tuney. Probably because it reminded her of a time when she didn't despise everything about her sister. I know it's a shock but yes those time did actually exist.

"There is one of those filthy creatures on the kitchen table again!" Lily had to concentrate very hard so she didn't roll her eyes at that still doesn't like owls I'm guessing?

"And I need the bathroom. I have a date in two hours." Petunia concluded with that arrogant "aren't I the better sister tone"

The confusion obviously showed on Lily's face as Petunia replied in the voice you would use as if explaining something to a small child "Well you wouldn't know what that is but you see when boy likes you-" "I know what a date is Petunia!" Lily snapped. "I was just wondering why so early? I mean it's only 9.00am now".

Petunia looked as if Lily had slapped her across the face. "Well Vernon wants to go out with his friends so were going out early..." Petunia veered off in a voice that Lily couldn't quite place. It was a familiar tone but she couldn't for the life of her figure out why.

Lily pushed those thoughts from her mind and let her previous anger flood back through her as she replied,

"Hmmm... what a nice guy Tuney, boy do you know how to pick em!" And with that Lily went down stairs ignoring the screams of "how dare you... freak... just because no guy..." following her. She just wasn't bothered to listen anymore she had grown tired of the insults her sister threw at her.

As she walked into the kitchen Lily glanced over and saw her mother smile at her while making breakfast but what she saw next cleared all other thoughts from her mind.

There, sitting on the clean clear kitchen table was a dirty brown owl. What caught her eye was the blanket of white tied on to its leg with gold lettering across reading – Ms Lilly Evans

A/n : Well there it is. What do you think? I feel that I could write a good fanfic from this but I need your input do you like it? Do you think it could be good? Would you read it if I continued? Should I shut up? :) Well I'm going to assume yes for the last one but for the rest let me know!
