Lily Evans woke up on July the 24th very happy. She was happy because it was her birthday. She had a shower and quickly got dressed before running down stairs. She was wearing a white skirt that came to just above her knees, and a black singlet top as it was very hot. She got downstairs to find her parents and sister was already awake.
"Where you been, Sleepyhead?" asked her mother, Rose. "We were expecting you up at around 8:00 but it is 9:30. Did you stay up late on the phone to Amanda again?"
"WHAT! It's 9:30! I am supposed to meet Amanda in half an hour!" Lily replied.
"Oh well, here is your breakfast. You eat this then you can open your presents," her Dad, Shaun, told her.
Lily was halfway through her breakfast when an owl flew in the house through the open kitchen window. It dropped something on Lily's toast before flying out again.
"What the...?" her dad asked. Lily picked up the thing and realised it was a letter. She went to open it but was disturbed by Petunia saying "What is it" in her annoying voice.
"None of you business," Lily replied to Petunia. The envelope seemed to be parchment and was rather heavy. She opened it and bout out a letter. She read the letter out to her family.
"Dear Ms. Evans,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of equipment for your first year. We await your owl no later than July 31st.
Yours Sincerely,
Penelope Woodsborough,
Deputy Headmistress,
Hogwarts school for Witchcraft and Wizardry."
"I've said it once and I'll say it again...'What the...?'" Shaun said.
"Well this is saying that I'm a witch. A WITCH! Oh my god I don't believe this. I have to tell Amanda," Lily exclaimed.
"Not before you open your presents," Rose said. Lily sat back down and opened her presents. She got a pair of flare jeans, and pair of black flare pants and a Yellow singlet top. She also got a new cat. She called it Crookshanks. She also got a gold necklace with a nice heart on it.
"Ok now may I please go?" she asked after thanking them all, repeatedly
"Of course, dear," Rose told her.
Lily practilly ran out the dor to go to Amanda's house, who lived next door. She knocked the door until it opened and there stood Amanda in a green singlet top and a black mini skirt.
At the same time they both said, "Oh my god guess what!!!"
Lily asked "What is it Amanda?"
Amanda answered" I'm a witch! I just got the letter! I'm going to a school called Hogwarts! So what was it you wanted to tell me?"
Lily was staring at her, open mouthed while she said this, and when she said the last part, she came back to earth.
"Well actually it was exactly the same thing you just told me," Lily told her. This time it was Amanda who was staring. Then she came back to earth and hugged Lily while jumping up and down.
"Okay well then...calm down," Lily told Amanda, but was kinda telling herself.
They discussed what Hogwarts would be like and who they would meet and what they would learn. Then they went bowling. After bowling, they went to a Mexican restaurant. Amanda slept over at Lily's house. They watched Friday the 13th and some other scary movies. They went to sleep at around 5:00 in the morning because they were so excited. Lily kept going over in her mind what kind of things she would learn and things like that.
*************************************************************************************
The next morning they woke up at 8:00 to find a large brown owl flying over their heads. It dropped a letter on Lily's head when it realised she was awake. She opened the letter. It said:
Dear Miss. Evans,
There will be a representative for muggle born Witches and Wizards arriving at your house in a moment. She will take you to Diagon Alley to get all of your supplies and things. She will also be taking other first years with her. We hope that this will help you.
Yours Sincerely,
Jill Morrison,
Ministry for Magic,
Muggle relations.
"Okay, Amanda why don't you go and get your parents to come over here and we can get all your stuff as well," Lily suggested.
"Sure, koolies," Amanda agreed.
Amanda got changed and ran over to her house. Lily got changed and ran downstairs. She showed the letter to her mum and her mum told her that they were going to let Lily go by herself. They gave her $150.50 for all her supplies. Then the doorbell rang. Lily ran to answer it and when she opened the door, she saw a women surrounded by about 20 people her age. In the background she saw Amanda running to her house.
"I am Jill Morrison. I am the one who will be taking you to- whoa..." The lady said before one of the children pushed her over.
"Hey I'm Sirius Black and this is James, Reamus and Peter. Who are you?" a guy with black hair said. When he said this he indicated to a really cute guy with blue eyes and black hair sticking up all over the place, a guy with blond hair who looked kinda tired and a small boy with blue watery eyes.
Amanda rushed to my side and said, "I'm Amanda and this is Lily." Then she turned to Lily and said "So get this, my parents are a witch and a wizard and they never told me. They kept it to themselves all these years! HowDumb." Then she pulled out some strange looking coins. "These are Galleons, Sickles and Knuts," She said indicating to all of them.
"So are you both going to Hogwarts this year?" James asked.
"Yep," I answered.
"SIRIUS BLACK; WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING!!!!!" Jill asked.
"I was just introducing myself to Lily and Amanda here," Sirius replied, looking like a sad puppy dog. Lily couldn't help but laugh.
"Fine but don't push me," Fatty said. Under her breath she was saying this that sounded like "I'm fed up with this" and "Next year they are getting someone else to do this."
Lily and Bella followed Jill to where there were about 6 cars that looked like Limos. Bella and Lily got into a limo-car with James and Sirius. They talked for the whole car trip.
Sirius and James had both grown up in wizarding familys. They had been friends for ages and their birthdays were on the same day. James had 2 sisters and Sirius had 1 sister. James and Sirius were like Twins almost.
They got to London and stopped. they walked into a shabby black building and walked out the back.
"This is how to get to Diagon Alley," and Jill taped the bricks
"Where you been, Sleepyhead?" asked her mother, Rose. "We were expecting you up at around 8:00 but it is 9:30. Did you stay up late on the phone to Amanda again?"
