It was a beautiful, sunny, spring day. The birds were singing, the butterflies were flying and the smell of pollen and flowers wafted through the air. Lily Evans a 17 year old girl with green eyes, red curly hear and milky white skin was lying in her backyard on the grass listening to the shrieks and squeals of her sister petunia and her friend doing muggle things like giving each other make overs and styling their hair. Just then there was a screech of an owl and the screeching and squealing from her sister and her friend stopped. "Oh no!'' Lily groaned, she sat up and bolted towards the sound, she had to get to the sound before her sister did.. to late. Lily's sister, petunia, who was wearing a pink dressing gown and a mud mask was reading Lily's letter out loud too her friend. "You bitch!" Lily screamed, "Drop the letter or I'll hex you!!"

"Tut, tut Lily you know your not supposed to hex me or you'll be in BIG trouble," Lily's sister said with an evil smirk on her face "and I've already read it who's the James boy? You've got like 10 this week from him." Petunia's friend was in fits of laughter from the letter,

"What are you laughing at?" Lily said angrily "you don't even know him!" petunia's friend stopped laughing and blushed.

"Anyway why do you like this guy Lily? He sounds like a desperate prick, my boyfriend Vernon is far better than this guy," petunia boasted.

"I don't like him, I hate him," said Lily defencely "And that so called boyfriend of yours is an ugly, fat, turd when he went to pick you up he almost got stuck in the door,"

"NO HE DIDN'T!" yelled petunia

"YES HE DID!" Lily yelled back

"Girls, girls what in gods name is going on!"? Lily's mum screamed over the top of them.

"She's got my letter!" Lily exclaimed

"She's making fun of my boyfriend!" Petunia argued.

"Petunia give back the letter and Lily for gods sake stop making fun of Vernon he is a.. er.. very.. cute boy," Lily's mum said.

"I never knew pigs were cute," Lily said under her breath. Petunia stuck out her tongue as she threw the letter at Lily, Lily caught it and stormed up the stairs to read it. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * MEANWHILE AT JAMES' HOUSE..............

"Give it up mate," said Sirius "you've been looking in that crystal ball for ages." James was looking into a crystal ball that showed every move that Lily was making.

"Those letters aren't going to make her love you," said lupin "The only one that she replied said 'stop writing to me I hate you'" "OUCH that's gotta hurt," said Sirius coolly, they both laughed but James just stared glumly into the crystal ball "Cheer up prongsie," said Sirius in a loving voice you can always have one of Lily's friends like Jessie or Michelle, "actually not Jessie, I like her,"

" Or Michelle," said lupin " I'm going to ask her out,"

" I don't want them," said James giving Sirius a playful punch " I only want Lily you know that,"

"Yer, yer," said Sirius "I know what we can do lets go down to diagon alley tomorrow and get our things,"

" Yer, that sounds good," said James now getting up "maybe I'll see Lily there,"

"I'm sure you will," said Sirius with a smirk now seeing Lily writing two letters to Jessie and Michelle asking them to meet her at diagon alley tomorrow.
