Chapter One
Authors note : After about six months of posting nothing I think this story I have been writing is finally ready to start being put up. I really hope I get some good reviews as I have put lots of effort into this one. I hope all my old readers will return and I hope the response to this story is a good one. The main storyline is that of Lily and James but I do feature some Sirius and Remus romance also. P.S that Sirius plus girlfriend and Remus plus girlfriend not slash now that I realise how that sounds. The story includes that of Voldemort but I have adapted it to fit my own criteria so sometimes won't go by J.K.Rowlings story. If I do make mistakes generally I won't care but if it is a big one let me know and I will see if I can sort it. Please don't be rude about my story because I won't respond as I do this out of fun and not to try and write an accurate prequel to Harry Potter. Anyway here is the first chapter and I hope you like please review as I am only posting this frist chapter to see how many responses I get and if I don't get many I probably won't carry on posting.
Dusclamier : I own none of the story of which J.K.Rowling wrote. I only created the characters not present in the Harry Potter series.
In the Beginning
She looked upon the view with a curious eye. Never before had she noticed certain things about her school showed so distinctly now but for the last six years they hadn't even been noticed. She smiled to herself remembering things that had occured at school. Meeting her first friend, the first time she had been caught for a prank, her first kiss... That last one is still imprinted on her mind so powerfully that she can even remember the smell of him...
Flashback
"I can't believe we are doing this," Lily screamed over the music to her friend Edina.
"I can, come on!" Edina yelled back grabbing Lily's hand and shoving her onto the dance floor. It was their second year and they had snuck into their first party. It was being held in the forest by some seventh years. They had only heard about it from Edina's sister who was in that year. They strolled into the cleared area, music was pumping, people were dancing and in the centre of it all a bonfire was crackling away.
They spotted Edina's sister Henrietta, she spotted them and waved. She had no problems with her thirteen year old sister and her friend being at a party. She was the type of sister Lily wished she had. Lily felt really uneasy being here. She felt out of place. She was only thirteen and everyone else was at least fifteen. She had tried to dress older by not making too much effort by wearing some cool jeans and a nice top that showed a bit of the cleavage she was still waiting to get. Her red hair stood out but Edina was the first to be pulled away to dance with a boy. Lily was left standing there. She went over to the drinks table and took a beer.
She knew once she calmed down and relaxed she'd be fine. She went over to where a group of people were dancing. She joined them and they didn't seem to mind. She just went along with them dancing and getting more beers. After her third she was starting to sway more than dance as the alcohol starting to take effect. She felt a hand around her waist as somebody started dancing behind her. She turned and it was a seventh year, Brad Gollman. He was very popular and head of the quidditch team in Ravenclaw. He looked down at her and smiled.
"Having a good time?" he asked leaning down and saying it straight into her ear.
"Yeah, its great," Lily replied trying not to slurr her words. Brad took her hand and led her away from the dancers and into a secluded part of the woods. Lily didn't protest, she was quite glad to get away from the noise. Once there she started to wonder where Edina had gotten to. They'd been there for over an hour and she hadn't seen her.
"You are so beautiful," Brad whispered in her ear. He stroked her cheek and Lily felt a bit dizzy and held onto him to stop falling over. Brad took this as a come on and pulled her closer and leaned into kiss. He pushed his mouth roughly against hers and Lily tried to push him away but he was too strong. His breathe smelt like beer and whisky and his cologne reminded her of her aunts house which smelled of a mix of cats and cats poo. Suddenly she was going to be sick and Brad was still forcing himself on her.
She pushed him away and fell down, she heard Brad groan in disgust as she vomited on the floor and as everything began to get dark she heard someone say it was going to be alright. The next thing she knew it was morning and she was in her own bed with no recollection of how she got there and an almighty headache.
End of flashback
To this day Lily doesn't know who helped her. Edina had been looking for her that night but said she couldn't find her. Lily laughs now about what happened. She had been so naive and unthinking at that age. Now she knew better and knew how to treat idiots like Brad, she also knew how to hold her drink. Her first kiss wasn't a pleasant one as you might have thought it would be, but it ended well without anything too bad happened abd Brad got his commupance as Edina's sister Henrietta found out about what he did and not only kicked him in the balls personally but also told all the girls that he had the tinest you know what ever and he didn't get another kiss that year lets put it that way.
Lily now being in her seventh year looked away from the view of Hogwarts as they pulled up to the station in Hogsmeade and into her carriage. She was still friends with Edina, or Eddie as she called her, they were also joined by Isabelle or Issy, and Alexandra or Lexi to her friends. They had bonded through all their years sharing the same dorm room in Gryffindor and were the best of friends. Lily looked at her friends giggling and laughing and smiled. This year was going to be good. Especially with Lily being head girl. She knew Amos Diggory was head boy but she didn't care. He was pompous and annoying but Lily knew he would do his job well enough. Lily stood and told her friends the train had stopped and they all trouped off the train to the carriages. They piled into one and sat down.
"So, I hear you get your own common room for being head girl. That'll be awesome." Eddie said looking at Lily and grinning mischievously.
"Yeah, I have to share it with Diggory though. Hopefully he won't be too annoying." Lily said.
"Doubt it. The boy is gorgeous but he born to annoy the hell out of anyone and everyone," Issy said.
"You said it," Lexi added.
"Have you seen the marauders this year?" Eddie asked curiously.
"No I haven't seen the little twerps yet. God they annoy me. They are such little children." Lily said.
"I have seen them, and obviously you haven't Lily because if you had you wouldn't be calling them children. They are men now and boy are they fine. James especially Lils. I would get in there with him. Sirius isn't too bad, well he is, bad I mean, he has that whole bad boy thing going for him. Delicious!" Lexi said almost drooling. The other girls rolled their eyes. Lexi saw.
"Seriously they have changed loads, they are no longer scrawny boys they are buffed out men. Also I heard James broke up with that girl he was going out with, you know the one. God, what was her name?" Lexi said.
"Cynthia," Lily said in a tone clearly showing her lack of enthusiaam for the girl.
"Oh yeah thats right. Still not a fan eh Lils?" Lexi said smirking knowing very well that Lily would cherish the day when she doesn't have to put up with Cynthia Baythes.
"You could say that, I personally like to think that me and Cynthia never got the chance to be friends. Oh, that and the fact the girl is a scheeming two faced bitch." Lily said this with the sweetest voice she could muster throughout. Her friends laughed all not exactly liking the girl as she was not only in slytherin but not exactly the friendliest person to them. Cynthia had always had a certain jealousy of their group. They were all smarter, prettier and better as dueling as she found out in the third year when she and her friends decided to pick on them. Their hatred for each other had grown over the years but last year it had all cooled off slightly whilst she had been going out with James as she seemed to want James to see what a 'nice' person she was. But secretly their hate for each other was still there.
The carriage the girls were in halted to a stop and the girls got off and started up towards the school. They had changed into their uniforms already and their cloaks swished behind them. Lily entered the hall and Professor Mcgonnagal beconned her to sit at the head of the gryffindor table. Lily agreed and brought her friends with her as there was some room. They sat for a while and waited while the rest of the school got seated. Four places infront had not been taken and Lily assumed they would be for the prefects in gryffindor. There were two prefects in each house.
"This year is going to be so awesome with you as head girl," Issy said grinning. "Sneaking out will be no problem."
"Yeah, but we have to be careful. If I am caught I will get in so much trouble." Lily said worriedly. "But I can't wait to get down to that new club in Hogsmeade, what was it called? Oh yeah. White Rabbit." Lily had just finished when she was interrupted by a deep male voice.
"Surely the head girl isn't thinking of doing something so naughty as going to a club?" The voice said. Lily looked up to put a voice with a face and came face to face with none other than Sirius Black the notorious trouble maker.
"You are obviously hearing things, Lily would never think of doing any such thing." Eddie said smirking slightly.
"Oh no, of course not." Sirius said smirking right back. Sirius sat in one of the chairs across from the girls and was soon joined by three others. Three were barely recognisable. Sirius, James and Remus were not as they had been. Lexi had obviously been right to say they were definitely now men. Peter, the fourth member seemed to have been left behind though, he looked exactly the same as he did every year, small, fat, and with a permanentely scared look on his face.
"Those seats are reserved for prefects only," Lily said cuttingly.
"Oh really, well it just so happens that my boys Remus and James happen to be prefects though it pains me to say it." Sirius said. Lily immediately looked to James. His face was stony and let no emotion out. Remus smiled nicely at them all but James just glared at the plate in front of him.
"You'll have to excuse James, he's not in the best of moods." Sirius said. He was obviously the most chatty of the group.
The group was then silenced as the sorting began. Professor Mcgonnagal called up the first years one by one to get placed in their desired house.
Finally after the last pupil sat down the headmaster Professor Dumbledore said a few words then the feast began. The boys immediately tucked in all except James.
"Are you not eating James?" Issy asked looking at him scowling. James looked up and looked less severe.
"I'm not that hungry thanks," James said quietly, he smiled slightly then went back to looking at his empty plate. Lily watched him curiously. His friends however made up for his lack of conversation.
"So what did you all do this summer?" Remus asked politely.
"Well we all went on our separate family holidays then we met up and stayed at Lexi's for a few weeks until school started. Her parents were away most of the time so we had the house to ourselves.
"Thats cool, we did kind of the same. We all went round James'. His 'rents were around but it was cool." Remus said.
"Yeah james' 'rents r the best. Right James?" Sirius said with a mouth full of food. James looked up and nodded glumly.
"Cheer up mate its not the end of the world. You didn't even like her that much." Sirius said bluntly in front of everyone. Everyone of course knew he was referring to the break up with Cynthia.
"Its not about that and you know it." James growled, then he got up and stormed out of the hall. The girls looked at each other and carried on eating in silence. The boys looked at each other with knowing glances and also carried on eating. The feast ended and they all departed for bed. Lily went her separate way with Mcgonnagal and Diggory to their new quarters and her friends went a different way. They were led up a few passages before they came to a tapestry of the Hogwarts Crest. Mcgonnagal sweeped her wand over it and said "Merlin's Beard" very clearly and a door appeared. She opened it and they enetered a chamber very similar to the gryffindor one.
"This was once Godric Gryffindor's personnel chamber. There are two bed rooms leading off it and one bathroom to share. I hope you use these special privelages with care and don't abuse your power as Head boy and girl.
"Yes Professor," Lily said smiling. Professor Mcgonnagal then left them to it.
"This is amazing isn't it?" Lily said looking around.
"I guess. I would have preferred to stay with my friends personnely." Amos said unsmiling.
"I suppose I am the same, I'm going to miss my friends. You don't have to stay here though. Your bed will still be in the Hufflepuff Dorm'." Lily said helpfully not really liking Amos' attitude.
"I might see about being moved back then now. See you later." Then Amos, without even glancing at the common room properly left in search of his head of house.
Lily went in search of her room and saw two doors either side of the ginormous fire place. One had HG on it and the other had HB on it. She obviously went through the HG one and walked into her bedroom. It was enormous with a full sized four poster bed in the centre with a desk, wardrobe and dresser also. The room was painted in a deep red with gold trimming obviously in the gryffindor spirit. She gasped at the beauty of it and went on through another leading from the room into what must be the bathroom. It was also enormous with a pool sized bath and two seperate cubicles for showers and also two sinks with huge mirrors. The room was breath taking.
Lily was tired though and decided to go to bed. She changed into her green tank top and shorts pyjamas and climbed into her new huge bed.
