I do not own the Harry Potter series. Neither do I own the characters, places, spells, and all of the other magical references in this story. They all belong to J.K Rowling, an AMAZING author.

James P.O.V

It was two minutes after noon, and James Potter, an eleven year old boy with untidy hair and almond eyes, was sitting on an old lounge chair looking out the window. He was looking for some sign of an owl, some sign of his letter.

"Don't worry James. It will come. Just give it some time." a woman who looked to be in her mid-thirties said supportively.

"I know it will mum. It's just, I'm sure all the other kids have gotten their letter by now!"

"You don't know that for a fact James. I'm-"

At that moment a brown barn owl swooped through the window James had opened hours before, clutching a large envelope with a red, wax seal. James jumped up on pure instinct and snatched the letter from the owl. After scanning his eyes down the first and second pages, he started jumping with glee.

"I'm going to Hogwarts mum! Dad I'm going to Hogwarts! I'm going to Hogwarts!"

"Congratulations, James. I knew you would get in. We'll go down to Diagon Alley tomorrow to get your school supplies."

Sirius P.O.V

Sirius Black, an eleven year old boy with long curly black hair, sat on a small couch in his family's parlor waving around a piece of parchment gloating. His younger brother Regulus sat staring at his strange brother.

"Sirius would you stop that. So you got into Hogwarts. Who cares, we all knew you would. You're a Black, all Blacks are accepted to Hogwarts."

"Not Uncle Perseus. He wasn't accepted."

"Yeah because he was a Squib, and now he's disowned from our family."

"Yeah, and I could have very well turned up like him."

"You've done accidental magic before. It's obvious you're a wizard. So, when are you going to ask mum to take you to Hogwarts."

"Never, I'm going by myself. If I go with mum, she'll go crazy buying me all sorts of dark arts and Slytherin school stuff, and I definitely don't want that."

"You could get hurt."

"Come on, Reg, what's life without a little risk. I'll see you in a few hours." Sirius left without turning back ignoring Regulus.

"But- Well, bye."

Remus P.O.V

The kitchen was deserted. It was silent until an owl flew through the open window. It landed with a thud on the table dropping a letter with a red, wax seal on the table. The owl then flew back out through the window leaving the kitchen, once again, deserted.

"Remus, hunny what was that?" a woman's voice rang out through the house.

"I don't know. I'll go check!" an eleven year old boy named Remus Lupin yelled back as he watched into the kitchen.

Remus walked into the kitchen and spotted the letter. He quickly lunged himself at the table and gripped the letter in his hand. After he opened the letter and read both pieces of parchment, he called out to his mum and dad.

"Mum, dad! It's here! It's here."

A woman who looked to be in her mid-thirties walked in and asked, "Remus, what are you yelling about?"

"It's here, mum," Remus said brandishing the letter in his hand.

"Remus! Congratulations!" Remus's mom said excitement on her face.

The color that had just been in Remus's face flooded. "Mum, I can't go."

"Why not?"

"You know why. I'm a. . . a. . . a monster."

"Remus John Lupin! You are not a monster. You just have a. . .a"

"Furry little problem."

"It only occurs during the full moon Remus. We can talk to Professor Dumbledore and work something out."

So, Remus's mother wrote to Albus Dumbledore and arranged a time to meet. The two decided to meet in Professor Dumbledore's office the following afternoon. Remus and his mom took the Floo Network to Professor Dumbledore's office. Professor Dumbledore beckoned for them to sit down and they obeyed.

"Now, you have written to me on young Remus Lupin's condition."

"Yes, Albus. Remus is concerned that while he is at Hogwarts, he will not be able to stop himself from hurting his classmates during the full moon."

"I see."

"Professor, during the full moon I can't control myself. I can't come to Hogwarts if I'm going to try to slaughter the students once a month."

"I understand, Remus. I think I know a solution to your problem. Remus, have you ever heard of a Whomping Willow?"

"Of course, Professor but I don't see how that is relevant."

"Remus," Dumbledore said ignoring Remus's last comment. "Have you ever heard of the old shack in Hogsmead that has been unoccupied for several years."

"Of course, my dad told me about it, but I still don't understand Professor."

"If I were to have a Whomping Willow planted on the grounds right on top of a secret passage leading to that old shack,"

"Oh," Remus said finally realizing what Dumbledore was saying. "So, if you built a passage to the shack and placed a Whomping Willow on top of the secret passage, I could sneak through the passage and stay in the shack during the full moon?"

"Precisely," Dumbledore said with a sparkle in his piercing blue eyes.

Remus and his mother left the office after the talk and headed to Diagon Alley to get his school supplies. While there he ran into a boy with untidy black hair named James. They immediately became friends but did not see each other until school started again.

Peter P.O.V

A small round boy sat on a large chair around a long table. The boy had an eager look on his face as he read a piece of parchment. Once the boy had finished he looked up at his mum and dad and a wide grin spread across their face as the boy spoke.

"I got in! I got in! I'm not a Squib! I'm going to Hogwarts!"

"Congratulations Peter!" his mother said smiling.

"I knew you'd get in Peter. You're a Pettigrew. You should be proud." Peter's dad said.

"Mum, will you take me to Diagon Alley. You know, to get my school supplies," Peter squeaked.

"Of course, hunny. Finish your breakfast and will head off."

Lily P.O.V

Lily Evans was helping her mother set the table when the doorbell rang.

"Lily go get the door, will you?" Lily's mum said.

"Alright, mum," Lily called out as she headed for the door. Lily opened the door and found a tall man with a long silver beard, long silver hair, and half-moon spectacles.

"Hello, Lily Evans," he said his eyes gleaming.

"Are you Albus Dumbledore?" she said half whispering.

"Ah, I see Severus has told you all about me."

"You know Severus?"

"Yes, Lily. I know all future wizard and witches. May I come in?" he asked stepping over the threshold.

"Oh yes come in of course," she said beckoning him in further.

"Lily, who is this?" Lily's mum asked coming into the living room finding Professor Dumbledore standing there.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Albus Dumbledore and I am the headmaster at an elite school. I have come to let you know that your daughter Lily Evans has been accepted to this school. This school's name is Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

"Witchcraft and wizardry?" asked Lily's mum obviously confused.

"He's not lying mum! My friend told me all about Hogwarts. His mum is a witch and he is a wizard. And this is Headmaster Dumbledore."

"Thank you Lily. Now let me explain further." Professor Dumbledore sat down on the couch along with Lily and her mum. He then explained all about Hogwarts and the requirements. When he finished, he stood up and before he could say goodbye an eleven year old boy with long black hair and an overlarge coat on ran in.

"Lily, I got my letter! I got my Hogwarts letter!" Severus said waving his letter around. He then noticed Professor Dumbledore and blushed. "Oh, hello Professor Dumbledore."

"Hello, Severus. Well, I must leave now. I have business to do before the term starts. Good day Mr. and Mrs. Evans, Petunia. I'll see you at the start-of-term Lily and Severus."

"Goodbye, Professor!" Lily and Severus said together and then turned to run up Lily's room.

"Lily, it's dinner time." Lily's father called out.

"One minute. I just need to go up to my room. Can Severus stay for dinner?" Lily said as she ran up the stairs.

"Yeah, of course, as long as his parents are all right with it."

Lily and Severus ran into Lily's room. Lily reached under her bed and pulled out two large books, one titled, "Lily's Life," the other titled, "Severus's Life." Lily passed Severus the book with his name on it and they both opened to a page. On each page of both scrapbooks was a moving picture of Severus and Lily standing in a playground waving and smiling at the camera. The next page was blank except for a title reading, "Hogwarts Letter." Both Lily and Severus slipped the letter into the book, smiled for a second while looking at it, and closed the book and headed downstairs for dinner.
