Okay so I have recently gotten into Harry Potter again…I am a massive fan of Harry Potter and decided to start a fan fic about it. I wasn't sure of what I wanted to make it about at first but after thinking about it I was like "oh what about the marauder's and their time at Hogwarts" but then I wanted to do a story about Snape, so now I am going to do it about Snape and Lily as main characters, not necessarily as a romantic pair but just as the best friends excited about going to Hogwarts. And then the encounters they have with the Marauder's whilst there, at any rate I do appreciate you reading this and I hope you enjoy it, if so please review and let me know what you think of this chapter. Oh and please keep in mind that although some of the dialogue used is from the actual books but it will change as it's my story so don't be annoyed if it changes I'm just using some of the original dialogue for the sake of it.
"Stop it Lily!" Petunia shrieked as she watched her sister open her hand to reveal a flower opening its petals.
"It's not hurting you" Lily smiled as she watched the pretty flower.
"How do you do it?" Petunia demanded.
"It's obvious isn't it?" Both girls looked up as a scrawny black haired boy emerged from the trees, walking towards them. Petunia gasped and walked backwards, Lily remained where she was, and curious as to whom this boy was.
"You're a witch" he said plainly. Lily's eyes widened for a moment.
"That's not a nice thing to call somebody" The boy laughed and then added.
"No, that's what people like you are called, my mother's one and I'm a wizard".
Over the next hour Petunia had left and Lily was lying on the grass next to Severus Snape, he had told her his name during their introductions. Snape told Lily all of the wonderful things included in being a magical being; she couldn't be more excited about going to this magical school known as "Hogwarts".
"And that's what happens when you use magic outside of school",
"But I've used magic outside of school!" Lily suddenly panicked. Snape chuckled.
"No they don't start telling you off about that until your 17 and even then they may let it slide, when you're a kid and just discovering your powers you don't really know what you're doing". Lily's panicked subsided and Snape smiled.
"So tell me more about these letters"
"Well we'll get one but she won't" Lily immediately realised that Severus was referring to her sister Petunia.
"It's real for us" Snape said smiling.
"And do we really get them by owl?"
"I will but you're muggle-born so someone from the school will come and explain it to your parents". Lily thought for a moment.
"Will they be mad?" Snape looked at her seriously.
"Why should they be?"
"Well no one else in my family is like this, and Tuney says I'm a freak". Severus took her hand in his and smiled at her.
"I don't think you're a freak". Lily smiled back.
"Thank you Severus, I'm happy you're my friend and that you're sharing all of this with me". They spent most of the afternoon like this, just talking about Hogwarts and everything magical.
At around 5 in the afternoon Lily finally arrived home, skipping happily though the front door. Her mother rushed over to her and embraced her. Lily gasped.
"Mummy…your crushing me" Mrs Evans laughed and then placed her hands on Lily's cheeks.
"I'm just glad you're okay"
"Why wouldn't I be?" Mrs Evans was just about to answer when Petunia walked in and spoke first.
"Because you've been hanging out with that Snape boy! He's a freak like you!"
"PETUNIA!" Her mother gasped.
"Don't talk about people like that"
"But she is mummy!" Mrs Evans turned her attention back to her youngest daughter.
"Lily who were you with?" She said smiling to reassure her.
"Severus Snape, he's not weird he's nice."
"Okay, maybe next time you see him you can get his parent's to pay us a visit okay?"
"Why are you mad at him?" Lily said sadly.
"No, no honey I just feel more comfortable knowing the parents of your friends"
"Okay mum" Lily hugged her mother and Petunia ran upstairs to her room in a jealous rage.
Sorry if this first chapter was a little short but I wanted the next chapter to start with a new topic, at any rate if you liked it and wish for me to continue please do let me know
