Hey y'all this is going to end up being a really good story, so PLEASE read
and review, flamers and good reviews welcome. This story is more
concentrated on Lily, but it was MWPP in it, and the other characters that
I made up, so I hope that you enjoy. This first chapter is placed before
school even started, so please don't get bored and not read on. It is
mainly describing people, and telling what Lily and Kelly did before school
started. Anywho, if you're like me, and you like long stories, then please
read because I'm going to make it longer even if no one is reviewing. but
it would help to know what y'all think about it. so. here we go!
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters that you already know about, I only own the ones that I made up, for example Kelly Winter, Christina Smith, etc.
1 A Not So Classic Lily and James
Lily Evans appeared to be a completely normal 14-year-old girl, but she wasn't. She was a fourth year a Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was normal in some ways, though. She and her best friend Kelly Winter shared everything, and she had a HUMONGOUS crush on James Potter. According to her and the majority of the female population at Hogwarts, he was perfect. Lily had long red hair halfway down her back, ivory skin, freckles, and was slightly chubby. Her favorite feature was he eyes. They were emerald green, and looked as though they were the precious stones themselves. She wore makeup, but didn't know how to apply it correctly. She was pretty, but she didn't think so because none of the guys, particularly James Potter, noticed her. She was, however, incredibly smart. She was the smartest person in her class, and that was all she was recognized for. The Evans were very wealthy, but you couldn't meet a nicer family anywhere. They weren't snobby, and they didn't show off their money. The Winter's were just was nice, and just as rich (this may not seem important, but it explains why Lily and Kelly have such nice things. read on!)
Kelly was also pretty. But she was born naturally gorgeous. She had dark brown hair down to her shoulder blades, and chocolate brown eyes. Kelly refuses to wear makeup. She is really easygoing, but she gets really shy around guys (Remus Lupin is the main one of we're going to name specifics). The guys notice her because she is so pretty, but she won't go out with any of them except for Remus, who had yet to ask her out. She is smart, but not Lily smart. Lily rarely has to crack a book, while Kelly has to study, but not a lot.
Kelly and Lily are currently at Hogwarts, redecorating their room. Lily had discovered a room at the very top of the Gryffindor around Christmas in the previous year. She had asked Dumbledore if she and Kelly could share it. He said that they could, and they've been making plans for it ever since. It was now two weeks before their fourth year at Hogwarts started, and they had gotten special permission from Professor McGonagall to come early and decorate. They had spent many hours together over the summer, buying things to go in their room, and bewitching some muggle things like their CD players and CD's (I know that they didn't have them back then, but I didn't know what else to put. forgive me) and other things. It was second nature for Lily's parents to see Kelly, as it was for Kelly's to see Lily. Luckily for them, they lived next door to each other, and they didn't have to drive anywhere to meet each other.
Lily and Kelly had decided to do a blue and green theme to their room, as those were their favorite colors. The girls had painted their room white. They had gotten white linen curtains with blue and green flowers on them and the same type of bedspreads for their queen-sized beds. However, Lily's bed was apple green with white and blue pillows, and Kelly's was royal blue with white and green pillows. Then they just mixed and matched. They built shelves for their pictures and for other thins, and they transfigured two books into armoires, both cream, but Lily's had green trim, and Kelly's had blue. There were window seats with cushions and pillows. Professor McGonagall transfigured a bug crawling on the wall into a fireplace, complete with mantel and everything. There were lights everywhere, even though you couldn't always see them.
Then, with Professor Dumbledore's help, they built a bathroom for the two of them. With a shower and a bathtub, and floor made out of marble. Two sinks and a lot of counter top space for all of their stuff, and light sconces on the walls, and on the mirror that ran along one wall. They had connected their lines to the prefect bathroom, so they had an everlasting supply of bubble bath and hot water, and their parents had given them a years supply of bath salts and muscle relaxers as a house warming gift. The salts and relaxers were to be delivered to them each month. Then, as they finished their room in a couple of days with Dumbledore and McGonagall's help, they had a week and a half to do other stuff. Other stuff meaning building a staircase up to the roof with an entrance behind one of their pictures on the wall. Then, Lily and Kelly magically made a room off of the staircase that led to a "sitting" room. That place held all of their books, and their most private possessions. In there also were many chairs and a big sofa for them to lay down on, with blankets ad pillows. Also, there was a fireplace that connected with the chimney from their bedroom. Lily and Kelly's parents were so proud of them being witches, that they gave them 500 Galleons to split between them. They had decided to use it for books, as they both loved to read, and had gradually used it over the years. Now, they had over 200 books, and most of them were either joke books, or advanced books. That was also the place that they talked about things that were private, just in case someone found their room and was eavesdropping. In here also were pictures of James and Remus that they had gotten over the years, and also was Lily's invisibility cloak. Her grandmother bought it for her when she found out that Lily was a witch. It was used mainly for late night food trips to the kitchen, and for playing occasionally pranks on first years that didn't know what had hit them.
At the moment, Kelly and Lily were in their nook staring at their many pictures of James and Remus. It was Lily who spoke first.
"He is SO cute!!"
"Lily dear, you are in way over your head. He doesn't like you. You need to stop obsessing over him," replied Kelly
"You're one to talk! You're on love with Remus, and he probably doesn't even know you exist!"
"Hello! Newsflash! Remus is SO much better looking than James. I honestly don't see what is so special about him. I mean he is arrogant, stupid, ugly, and doesn't even brush his hair!"
"Yeah, sure Kel. Whatever you say." Lily had started daydreaming again.
Kelly sighed. They had had this "argument" countless times before, and it always ended up the same, either her or Lily drifting back into space. It was pointless to try and shake her out of it now, so she just drifted back into her own world, the world where she and Remus were dating and in love.
