Ch. 1 A Look at Lily's Life
"Give me that dress, witch!" screamed an ugly blonde-haired teenager who had a sour expression on her face.
"This is my dress Petunia! It doesn't even fit you!" screamed an eleven-year-old Lily Evans as she snatched her favorite green dress back from her fifteen-year-old sister Petunia. Petunia was always trying to take Lily's things without permission and always wound up tearing it, because she wouldn't admit that she wasn't as thin as she thought she was.
"Girls! Stop fighting or we'll be late for the party!" shouted their mother, Carolyn Evans.
"You know what? I'm not going to the stupid party! I never wanted to go in the first place! All you care about is going to parties, and I can't take it anymore. I hate them; they're never any fun. I hate all of you! I'm not going and you can't make me!" And with that Lily stomped up to her bedroom. She locked the door and wouldn't unlock it until she was sure that her parents and Petunia had left.
Her full name was Lillian Marie Evans. She had no friends at all because every time she would get angry or upset, odd things would happen. Like once, a boy was chasing her in the schoolyard, and she was very upset, because he was threatening to throw a ball at her. The next thing she knew, he was up a tree, crying his eyes out. Another time, her classmates were calling her a teacher's pet because she scored a hundred on a test that most others had done badly on. The next day, all the children came to school to find their notebooks missing, and Lily was the only one who still had hers. All of these odd things scared Lily's classmates.
Lily had waist length deep red hair, more of an auburn color. Her eyes were bright green and contained a hint of mischief. And her temper? Let's just say you shouldn't get on her bad side. Just because she didn't have friends didn't mean that she was anti-social. She knew she just needed friends that would accept her the way she was.
Lily's father was involved with the government. The family was well known, and they were always being invited to parties. They lived in a mansion in London. Lily's mother stayed at home preparing for parties and designing cloths. It seemed that all her parents cared about were going to parties and hosting parties and meeting all kinds of people who were very high up in government status. They never seemed to realize that Lily was very unhappy or how much Petunia bothered Lily, and how much she hated them for that.
As she put on her yellow duck pajamas, Lily sighed. Sometimes she wished that she had another calling in life, that maybe she belonged somewhere else where she would fit in. It just didn't seem right that she belonged here with people like Petunia. She sighed again before pulling the covers over her body and falling asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
A/N: Remember guys review! I'm hoping to get 5 reviews for every chapter, and every one counts! Thanks a bunch!
