This is my first story ever so im sorry if it's not quite flowing yet, I love the character of Lily so i thought i would take a crack at writing my own- enjoy!

Back To Hogwarts

'Bye dad' lily mustered through the angry tears gathering in her eyes, Albus had been teasing her about failing her OWLS again. Her dad lifted her chin with his fingers until she was staring him point blank in the face 'Now don't you worry about Albus, your mother and I will be proud of you whatever you get as long as you try your hardest. OK?' Lily Nodded meekly and as she blinked a tear rolled down her freckled covered cheek. Her father looked at her with a compassionate expression; he looked as if he was carefully considering something. Harry leaned in close and whispered in his daughter's ear 'Just between you and me, I happen to know that a certain Albus Severus in fact only passed transfiguration with an A' he looked at Lily's face, eager for some uplift in her mood. Lily sniffed, ran her hands under her eyes as to wipe away the tears and then bit her lip how will I ever pass my OWLS if I cry when Albus teases me? She thought but Albus is a liar, did he really not get an O? The thought of Albus' shame at his marks brought a mischievous smirk to Lily's face.

'Thank you daddy' she said as she stood on her tip toes to give him a kiss goodbye. 'Have a good year, don't get too stressed and don't leave me out on any boy gossip like last year' said Lily's mother putting on a fake stern voice as Lily squeezed her tight. 'Ok mum but David really wasn't a very serious relationship, Buh Bye' lily turned around lugging her luggage with her, James was holding her owl and broom he walked with her to help get her trunk aboard the Scarlet Train.

'Have fun Lils, and I'll see you before you know it' Lily took her Speckled owl from James and muttered 'Yeah, Yeah just as soon as you get back from your world tour. Promise you'll write?' Lily mustered the best puppy eyes she could and hugged her brother through the open window. 'Yes I promise, how will would you survive your days without your handsome brother?' he smiled Lily tried not to laugh and rolled her eyes honestly she thought and with one last wink from James she turned and made her way down the train.

She finally found her friends in the second to last compartment in the train Typical she though as her friend Jemima, Jem for short lunged at her. 'Calm It Kermit' Lily said as she took a step back 'Precious cargo here' Lily nodded at her Broom and then quickly at her owl forgetting that the feathery creature swung back and forth in its metal cage. 'Honestly you and that Broom' laughed Belle from her seat against the window as she joined the line to greet Lily behind Jem. As soon as Lily was sure the Owl was safe on the shelf she turned back to her friends and bear hugged them before proceeding to sit down next to Jem.

She Caught sight of Marie in the corner and nodded courteously what is she doing here? They sat in silence for a moment as Lily studied her best friends. Jemima Alice Longbottom was tall, thin and pretty; she had longish strawberry blonde hair that had one wave going through as if she had permanently just taken her hair out of a ponytail. Isabelle Lovegood had long curly hair past her hips, she had big grey eyes and other than her dark hair looked strikingly like her mother. Lily glowered at Marie; she couldn't help but catch Jem and Belle exchanging anxious looks.

Marie had been friends with Lily's group ever since first year; Lily had never liked her as much as the others but was perfectly nice because she didn't want hassle. It was only when David Snow had cheated on Lily with Marie in the Library the year before that Lily really lost her tether. Lily knew it had been hard for Jem and Belle what with all the arguing and ignoring going on between the two girls, when the year came to an end and Lily had had enough she approached Marie in a truce. Lily could still remember it vividly.

'Please Lils just can you at least be civil, I know it was an awful thing she did but you have to understand how hard it is for us to choose' Jem begged. Lily's eyes bulged 'Choose? Choose? There is no choice Jem, she did the worst thing you can do to a friend and you expect me to Apologise?' Jem flinched and looked desperately at Belle for support 'We know' piped up Belle 'But we also know what it is like to be on the receiving end of an argument with you' she looked anxiously at Jem who followed suite and began nodding then said 'And you know she feels horrible, she actually thought it was Mclaggen because it was dark and he had sent her a note telling her to meet him there'.

Lily quietly considered this before practically shouting 'Fine! But only for you two and her being too cowardly to actually say something herself'. Jem and belle had looked relieved and walked down into the common room with Lily whilst she talked to Marie; the tanned girl had looked up at Lily with an intense fear in her mud brown eyes. 'Look I know you are sorry and whilst I may not completely forgive you' She looked hurt and inhaled a short breath 'but we have to think of the others, who we are making life hell for. So I suppose I could call a truce?' Marie knew an opportunity when she saw one and nodded so fast Lily thought her head would fall off.

Jem and Belle came over smiling and looking relieved 'well shall we go to lunch?' asked Belle looking satisfied with her persuasion skills. 'Yes I'm starving' said Marie smiling as she grabbed Belle and Jem's arms, 'You coming Lily?' asked Jem. Truth was I didn't want to go to lunch with Marie; I only called a truce with her because of my friends. 'No I have tons more packing to do' the girls nodded and a feeling of hatred swirled in stomach as I watched that monster walking away arm in arm with my best friends.

That whole fiasco had been the reason Albus now thinks he could tease me, I had well and truly flunked my exams. I had spent most of the time brooding or crying over the betrayal of my supposed friend and my first ever serious boyfriend…

'Hello! Earth to Lily' called Jem laughing and clicking her fingers in lily's face. 'Oh, sorry did you ask something?' lily asked dragging herself back to reality and trying to contain herself in her seat whilst quite obviously scowling at Marie who was hiding behind her copy of 'Witch Weekly'. 'I asked how your holiday was?' stated Belle glancing nervously between Marie and I. 'Oh urm, it was okay I basically just visited family. I spent a week in France with Victoire and her family; I was bridesmaid at her wedding.' The word wedding got the girls excited; Marie even arched her eyebrow over the top of her magazine 'Oh yes! I forgot did she look nice? What was your dress like? That makes Teddy your what?' I laughed and pretended to look overwhelmed 'Wow, ladies ladies please!' Jem giggled. Before I could answer a loud whistle pierced its way through the train which made us all look up as station 9 & ¾'s pulled away

. We sat for a moment trying to remember what we had been talking about when someone tapped on the compartment door. I turned to the door to see Albus standing there suddenly the events of this morning flashed through my mind I pulled the best death stare I could muster, Albus looked a little worried then poked his Head boy badge and mimed a watch. 'Damn' I muttered, 'I've got to go' I stood up and slid the compartment door open as Albus walked off ahead of me. I started after him before turning back and quickly adding 'She looked Beautiful, I was in a green and cream dress and Teddy is now my cousin in-law' I added a smile and hurried of to the Prefect Carriage whilst hastily pinning on my badge I had left in my pocket.

I snuck into the Prefect carriage knowing I was late, not the proper conduct of a Prefect but I wasn't as eager as the others. I remembered when my letter arrived I had felt the bulge in the envelope and grinned.

I ran into Albus' room who was looking shocked at his package. 'Alright there bro? Looking for this?' I flashed a smirk as I held out my badge. Albus looked up and smirked back at me 'Actually Lil I was looking at these' he replied whilst turning his hands round to reveal not one, but two badges. The Red and gold Captains badge gleamed in his hands. 'Wait what' I groaned as I turned my badge around, I realised I hadn't even looked at it a silver 'P' stood proud on the centre of the badge. I looked back at Albus who was clutching his sides laughing at my self-confidence and reaction. 'Well I guess you will be taking your orders from me now' I glanced at the Head boy badge in his right hand. How did I get to be a prefect, I flunked my exams, well not Transfiguration I thought. I gritted my teeth 'MUM!' I ran out of the room leaving Al in hysterics on his bed…

I looked around the compartment, it was furnished lavishly and wouldn't even look like a train if it were not for the windows portraying the English countryside as we whizzed forward. I glanced apologetically at Rose who nodded kindly 'Now that we are all here' said Albus looking at me, 'we can begin, for those who do not know my name is Albus Potter but people call me Al. This here is Rose Weasley and we are your Head boy and Girl this year, it is up to us to organise meetings etc. Rose will be mainly taking the reins though because if you haven't noticed' He puffed out his chest so that everyone could see his Captain badge and smiled at the ladies, Daisy and Delilah Parkinson giggled. I laughed at Albus' face who looked rather put off by their signs off affection, he struggled through his embarrassment 'although I will be very attentive to my duties I will also be organising practices for the Gryffindor team so we can get the cup this year..again' some of the Gryffindors cheered. Rose looked irritated at Albus' need to mention Quidditch in everything and picked up where he left off.

'Ok, so I will read out the patrol schedule and after your free to go although you need to patrol the train compartments every now and again before we arrive at school.' Delilah Parkinson looked pleased at the immediate instatement of authority. Something about her and her younger sister Daisy had always reminded me of dogs, Daisy's hair was in two high ponytails on either side of her head her pushed up nose always made her look smug.

Delilah Had her brown hair scraped back into a French plait which was thoroughly unattractive, I reached behind me and pulled my hair down out of the same style as hers. I looked around the room as Rosie read out the patrols partners and times for next week. There had to be about thirty people in the compartment, including myself. I looked for anyone I knew in particular, Drew Kittow was there he represented fifth year with me. Cousin Hugo was here; he was watching his older sister attentively and scribbling the timings into his notepad. Then I saw a face that made my stomach lurch, Snow was standing there watching Kayla Parvati in the year above like she was something to eat, despite the fact that she was quite obviously holding the hand of Scott Wethering. How could I forget? Of course he's a Prefect; I used to make out with him on his patrols! I thought angrily I drifted my attention back to Rose 'ok, so I think that's that umm yeh so I'll see you at our next meeting' she smiled and waved for people to leave.

Everyone filed past me I struggled through the cue until I reached Rosie, 'Rose you've got to do me a favour! I can't be on any patrols with David Snow; please I'm begging you I'll do whatever you want please!' I looked at her desperately. Rose looked down at m with a pitiful expression 'ok but you owe me; I'll have to redo the schedule' relief flooded over me, sometimes I loved my family for being so big and understanding 'Thank you! Thank you!' Rose laughed 'that's ok' her expression darkened 'is it true he cheated on you with Marie Jordan?' I took a deep breath 'yeah he did that's why I messed up on my exams so badly, it was awful but I'm ok now. Merlin knows how I got to be a Prefect!' Rose chuckled and was about to say something before she fell silent.

I turned around see Albus standing there face shocked and his hands so tightly bound in fists his knuckles had gone white. He growled 'Snow what now?' I started 'Al it's no big deal, weren't you talking to? Quidditch try outs?' in a desperate attempt to change subject. He turned to face the door and marched down the corridor almost shouting 'I'm gonna kill him! And then her too! How dare he how very dare him...my little sister!' Rose and I followed desperately trying to stop him. 'Al no! Please Al it's done, you'll only make it worse!' but nothing would stop him.

People were watching Albus nervously from their compartments as he stumbled past Rose and me running after him. James and Albus had always been protective over me, announcing to the common room that I as not interested in any boys what so ever since I had started school. James had had a long talk with Albus before we left for school this morning about continuing the protective bubble over their little sister precisely why I hadn't mentioned much about Snow or the break-up to anyone. Finally we reached the Hufflepuff compartment.

You could see Snow's back against the door as he chatted with his friends. Al grabbed his wand as Snow turned around and backed away from the door, but I was quicker. Petrificus Totalus! Al fell to the floor unable to move, his eyes darted around desperately. I levitated Al back through the corridors laughing with Rose at the look on Snow's face, don't get me wrong I hated Snow but I wasn't the type who enjoyed a big scene. We walked back to The Gryffindor compartments, past my friends who were laughing at Marie pulling a face and didn't notice me, Bitch I thought.

We reached a compartment where I assumed Al was sitting before because all his friends were there. Simon Gould, Derick Longbottom and Stan Finnigan were Al's best friends although he did spend a fair bit of time with Scorpius Malfoy, much to Uncle Ron's disgust. Stan laughed 'what's happened to Potter?' he asked I smiled then pulled a "deadly serious" face 'Oh nothing I just Body binded him because he was about to embarrass me' I said simply shrugging my shoulders. 'Wow remind me not to get on the wrong side of you' remarked Simon. I smirked and reached to pull Al's wand out of his hand which was frozen as if stone, 'Just in case' I added when his friends looked at me weirdly. I stood aside to let Rose into the compartment who received a dashing smile from Longbottom causing her to blush profusely. I broke the tension 'well, feel free to un bind him once I've left. Oh and do me a favour and don't let him go near the Hufflepuffs' Derick looked at me puzzled but I merely winked, tossed Al's wand onto Hermione's lap and walked out of the compartment.

I made my way back to my compartment smiling and waving at fellow students on my way, I bought a pumpkin pasty and a bottle of liquorish fizzle juice from the food trolley and strode into the compartment interrupting Marie mid-sentence 'So he pushed me against the shelves, and next thing I knew we were-' Jem looked horrified at my arrival. I just stopped and stared in disbelief 'half an hour and you can't hold in your dirty little activities any longer?' Belle started 'please Lil, it wasn't her fault.. I was the one..' failing to put a sentence together Belle leaned back against the window and glanced worriedly at me 'I just thought, you know what' I said trying desperately not to shout 'I just thought that you too would give me a little more support!'

I slammed the compartment door shut and stormed off down the train. I didn't know where I was going I just knew I was going somewhere far away. I stopped to breathe and saw Hugo chatting to some Ravenclaws in the compartment to my right. I slid the door open and stared at Hugo, I wasn't even crying but he knew I was upset. I loved Hugo because he understood me so well; I took a deep breath and continued to stand there as his friends stared at me. Hugo didn't say or ask anything he just stood up and engulfed me in a bear hug smoothing my hair with his hand. 'Thank you' I whispered 'Thank you for knowing me enough not to ask' I felt him nod as my salty tears fell onto his robes.
