This is a Lily and James story that doesn't follow all requirements of Rowling but follows a lot of them.

I am going to try to update every two weeks.

If I get enough reviews for chapters I will post every week.

This is just a mini preview, I will post the first chapter within this week.

I am american but I have been trying to make this sound more British.

Please review with comment and constructive criticism. Flames don't help me.

Thanks and enjoy!

Prologue

Lily

"Lily, I'm so thrilled! This is your last year at boarding school! What college are you going to? We should definitely go together!" My best muggle friend Keely said.

"Kee, you know I'm not going to college, but if you go in London you could share a flat with my mate Rose and I," I compromised referring to my best girl-mate at Hogwarts, my school.

"Sure!"

"Keely, I have to go now, but I'll be in the non-magic room tonight at eight okay?"

"Okay I'll talk to you then. Are you coming home for Christmas?"

"Yup, and I'm bringing friends to, because it's Petunia's wedding."

"Oh right, I have to find a date for that."

"Already covered. You have a blind date with Sirius Black, my mate at school."

"Thanks! Is he nice? Is he cute?"

"Let's put it this way, you will love him!"

"Okay, who are you going with?"

"I'm hoping James Potter, I'm going to ask him as mates because I don't think he likes me like that."

"I bet he does."

"Keely! You don't even know him!"

We both cracked up at Keely predicting James' feelings.

"Lily? Let's go!" my mother called.

"Well good bye Keely," I said.

"Bye, talk to you tonight," She said as she walked from my house.

I hated leaving Keely every year. She was my best friend ever since I was born when her mom and my mom were in the same room at the hospital. She, besides my family, was the only muggle I've told about the

whole magic thing. She thought it was really cool until she found out I had to go to boarding school because of it. When I first went to Hogwarts the first weeks were very hard for me, I was very attached to Keely

and to my parents, and Dumbledore saw this and made a non-magic room where magic electronics can work. He then gave me a cell phone so I can call Keely and my parents on. It has helped so much and I owe

a lot to Dumbledore for that. Now I love Hogwarts, I cannot wait to get back! I missed my friends terribly from Hogwarts, my best friend Sirius, James, my Quidditch buddy and crush, Remus my study buddy and

fellow prefect, and Rose.

I then sighed and thought about what a big year I had ahead of me, Head girl and Quidditch co-captain, and taking all advanced classes and a job. I have already chosen to be a healer so I had a paid internship.

My schedule is ridiculous!
