The Life and Times of Lily Evans

Okay… So I am starting this because… I dunno… because I feel it's important for all of you Harry Potter fans out there to learn about Lily's past. What she was planning to do, her birth, her childhood, her time at Hogwarts, and the short time she spent as a wife and mother. There will be an extra chapter or two at the end about her watching her son grow up and save the Wizarding and Muggle world alike. Please review. Thanks so much!

Petunia Evan's POV. She's 4 years old. She's at St. Joseph's Hospital.

Dad told me to wait outside. I hate waiting. Mum's having the baby, Lily. I walk around and stare at paintings on the walls. At last Dad comes out and he says softly, "Come in, Tuny. Come see your new sister."

I eagerly follow him in and plop myself on his lap by Mum's bed. She's holding a pink bundle. I peek inside.

Lily's a small little thing. She's got rosy cheeks and bright green eyes. She's got a tuft of red hair standing up. Pity… I wanted her to have hair like mine. Soft and blonde, not thick and red. I smile anyway.

"Tuny… would you like to hold her?" my-our- Mum asks.

I nodded vigorously. She carefully tucks Lily into my arms. I grin and begin talking to her.

Three days later… At the Evans' house

We're bringing her home! Finally! I race up the steps in my green dress and open the door for my new sister. Mum takes in the smell of the house. She hasn't been here in awhile so I couldn't blame her. We all have smiles on our faces. I follow Mum around the house as she shows Lily each of the rooms. She stops at the nursery. By then it's already time for Lily's nap. I kiss her forehead and watch intently as Mum lowers her into her white crib.

"Sweet dreams, Lily." I whisper. I wiggle my fingers good-bye and leave the room closing the door behind Mum and I.

"Mummy, mummy! You think maybe I could spend the night with her?" I ask

"Well, I don't see why not, Tuny." She turns as I tug on her skirt. She smiles her gentle smile and sets off for the kitchen.

We hear a shrill cry and we all race to the nursery. There's baby, Lily, thrashing in her crib, crying on and on. I cover my ears and flee the room. I sit in my rocking chair and rock back and forth, trying to get that horrid sound out of my head. So this is what having a baby sister's like.

Lily Evan's POV. At the park with Mum and Petunia. Tuny is now 10 and Lily is 6.

I laugh happily as Tuny chases me 'round and 'round the park. We stop for breath, still laughing and panting at the same time. I fall down and lay on my tummy, I look at a bright yellow flower. I pluck it and hop over to Mum.

"Mummy. What kind of flower is this?" I ask

"Why, that my dear is a Marigold." She says picking up the flower and sniffing it delicately. She placed the thing back in my hands.

I stare at it and suddenly it started to move. It's petals opening and closing over and over. I gasped and began to examine the mysterious flower.

"Mum! Mum! Look at this! Hold the Marigold! It's moving!" I scream. I hand her the Marigold and she watches it. Nothing happens.

"What's it supposed to do, Lily?" she asks me.

"B-but when I held it, it started to move!" I take it back. I watch it again and it starts moving again. Mum lets out a cry of shock. Tuny comes bounding over to have a look.

"Like magic! How do you do it?" she exclaims.

Little did I know that that was exactly it.

Haha. Hope you guys liked it! I will try to update soon!
