Before the Tale: Will Lily Evans ever make it through a world with a boy like James Potter?
Note: Lily Info came from the Harry Potter Wikia and I have had to make some time differences for the sake of the story. wiki/Lily_Evans
Kings Cross has always been quite noisy and crowded. I never liked it, but my sister, Petunia, seems to like it. She loves sneaking peaks at the young men while Mum is looking away. It's the only thing Petunia likes about this trip to the train station. She can't seem to come to grips with the fact of me being a witch.
"I always knew you were an ugly, stupid witch," she'd retort."…but not a REAL magical one…" she'd mutter under her breath.
Mum tells me that she is just jealous, and that I should not be swayed by her. But Petunia IS my sister. Even though she has spent the latest few years of both of our lives torturing me, I feel like we could go back to being great friends of she just tried. It's too late now though. I'm off on an adventure that I had barely dreamed of. Humph!
Mum drags Petunia as Dad and I haul my trunk to the platform that was mentioned on one of my acceptance letters. By some magic (because that's what it is) all of my family was let through the portal to Platform 9 and ¾. The feeling of the… the magic as I passed through the portal was the most wonderful experience you could ever feel! Even though the wall was made out of brick, it felt like lying on a bead of satin sheets and feathers! It was soft and cool, but quite a rush. As soon as I got through I found my family coughing and hacking from the portal. Petunia looked up at me in contempt.
"Lily and her freak ways…"
"I'm not a freak. That's a horrible thing to say."
"That's where you're going. A special school for freaks. You and that Snape boy ... weirdos, that's what you two are..."
"You didn't think it was such a freak's school when you wrote to the headmaster and begged him to take you."
"Humph!"
