Chapter 1: Meeting New People
Lily stood outside a huge train. The writing on the side read Hogwarts Express. 'How come we had to move! I'm really not good at making new friends...' She thought as she sighed. She continued dragging her trunk closer to the train. Lily was 5 foot 4 inches, she had flaming red hair all the way to her waist and the ends curled. She had stunning emerald eyes and a nice figure. She was a little shy though and not very good at making new friends. She was wearing a red tank top with a black blouse that she left open, a black skirt that stopped about 2 inches above her knees, white knee socks, and a pair of nice black shoes. She left her hair down except for two red clips on either side of her head. She finally got everything sorted and walked into an empty compartment, and sat down taking out a book, Hogwarts: A History (AN- I think that's what that book was called I hope you all know what I'm talking about...) A few minutes later she heard some bangs in the hall and three boys came running in and slammed the door shut behind them. They looked slightly out of breath.
"Um, excuse me?" Lily said softly. They all looked towards her "H..hi I'm Lily Evans" she said sweetly and held out her hand. A boy with brown eyes and black hair that was in a small ponytail in the back, and stood about 6 foot 1 inches took her hand and kissed it. He was wearing a blue tee shirt and black baggy pants.
"Sirius Black, very nice to meet you. I've never seen you before though, and I doubt you are a first year, so you must be new." He said charmingly.
"Yes, I moved here from America, I'm a 4th year" Lily said.
"Great, we're 4th years also! I'm James Potter" A boy with messy black hair, brown eyes and glasses, who was about 5 foot 11 inches, and was wearing a blue tee shirt with a white long sleeved shirt underneath and baggy khaki pants, shook her hand.
"Yea, and I am Remus Lupin." Another boy said while shaking her hand. He had sandy blonde hair and blue eyes. He was about 5 foot 9 inches and wore a long sleeved green shirt and a pair of baggy jeans.
"Nice to meet you all" Lily said. (AN- note how I do not mention Peter in here. That is because I dislike him. Let's just say he's running around some where else other than here. No offence to anyone who likes Peter, I just don't)
"You don't mind if we sit in here do you?" James asked her.
"No not at all, but I do have a question." She said.
"Ask away" Sirius said.
"Why are you all out of breath?" Lily asked. Before they could answer a girl with black hair and green warty skin came barging in.
"Change it back! Now! Or I will curse you so fast your heads will be spinning!" She screamed, revealing rotten gross teeth. The three boys were all laughing. Sirius lifted his wand and said a spell Lily couldn't quite hear. The air around the girl shimmered a bit and the girl started changing. Her hair turned brown with blonde highlights and it stopped a little above her shoulders and the ends were in little tiny layers that curved outward. She had light blue eyes, and was about 5 foot 2 inches. She was wearing a tight sparkly yellow three quarters sleeved shirt and a pair of black flares.
"That's better now" she said glaring at the boys. She then looked at Lily " Oh, hello there I hope they weren't torturing you" she said as she once again glared at the boys.
"Hi, I'm Lily Evans, I'm new here, and its ok they were being nice." Lily replied.
"Well that's a first, I'm Suffie Moon." She said shaking Lily's hand. Everyone took a seat. Lily sat in between Suffie and James, Remus and Sirius sat on the other side.
"I really like you I hope we become friends, I don't like most of the girls here a lot of them are stuck up, and these three have been bugging me for years. Its great, now I finally have a girl to help me get them back." Suffie said smirking. "Do you know what house your in?"
"Yea I'd like to see the day when she gets us back" Sirius mumbled.
"House? Oh um I haven't been sorted yet..." Lily said.
"Well good luck, I hope you get Gryffindor, like all of us." Suffie said with a smile. Lily smiled back. 'And I thought making friends would be hard' Lily thought happily 'I hope I get sorted in the same house as them though'. A few hours past and the train stopped with a great jerk. Lily almost fell out of her seat, but some one caught her. She looked up to see a pair of chocolate eyes staring back. It was James.
"Um th..thank you" Lily said blushing slightly.
"No problem" James said giving her a bright smile. "We're finally here, the train usually doesn't stop so suddenly like that." Everyone stood up and left. They all got in a carriage and after a while reached Hogwarts. Lily stared shortly at the huge castle as they walked in. One of the teachers instructed Lily to go elsewhere as the three boys and Suffie took a seat at one of the tables. Lily watched as all the first years got sorted into different houses, and the house they got sorted into clapping wildly when they did. At last everyone was sorted and a man stood up and gave an announcement (AN-can anyone tell me who the headmaster at there time was? Was it still Dumbledore? Help! Lol) "We have one new student who will be sorted into a house, she's a 4th year and has moved here from America. Her name is Lily Evans." Lily walked out and sat on the chair placing the sorting hat on her head. She closed her eyes tightly. 'Oh please be Gryffindor, please, please, please!' She thought. She could hear the sorting hat mumbling and trying to decide her house in her head. After a few minutes she finally heard it say something out loud.
"I have decided Rave... no that won't do...GRYFFINDOR!" the hat yelled out. Lily was smiling very brightly glad of the house she was sorted into. All the Gryffindor's were clapping. 'uh oh where should I sit' Lily thought as she looked up and down the table. She finally saw the friends she had made on the train waving for her to come over to were they were sitting and motioning to a seat. Lily's face once again lit up with happiness as she walked over and sat in between Remus and Suffie. Across from them was James and Sirius.
"I'm so glad you're a Gryffindor!" Suffie said as she gave Lily a quick hug.
"Yea good job, we're glad you made it in to our house too, one more person to play jokes on" The boys said smirking.
"In your dreams, me and Lily are going to get back at you good!" Suffie said smiling. Lily sat there also smiling. The man said some more announcements and then a feast appeared on the table and everyone dug in.
